Saints Row

Saints Row is a fun game to play, if your a fan of GTA The beginning of the story is that there are three gangs meet up and somehow began a shootout, until Julius rescues you from one of The Vice King gang member.

The good: Has great weapons You can create your own person (that's just a man only) Variety of cars to choose or steal The storyline are great Xbox Live game activities are awesome There are 4 gangs and you can only join one and thats The 3rd Street Saints. There are a variety of clothes you can choose from The Bad: You can't create a girl. You can't choose a gang or create a gang. There's not enough clothes to choose from in your own desire.

The Ugly (Thats very bad): Your player dives like a dummy crash testers! Too many glitches. Some Online players can cheat on Live quite easily. Your player doesn't speak much. (similar to GTA III)

Before you count my review off , Please let it be known that i picked this game up early from a neighborhood game store, that sells games as soon as they get Delivered.

When you start out, You get to Creater your character. There's caucasian, Asian, African American, And Hispanic. From there, you can edit facial features, such as eyes and facial hair, You can edit your hairstyle and color, and Edit muscle mass. The Character customization is amazing, blows San andreas out of the water. Saints row also features Superb Ragdoll physics, You can crash and send the passenger flying through the window. The mission types are Better than in grand theft auto. There Are numerous Side missions. There's Insurance Fraud, Where you throw yourself into oncoming traffic, There's hijacking where you steal a car and bring it back to a garage. There's Snatch, where you go and steal Hookers from other pimps and bring them back to your employing pimp. The controls are Great. You don't use auto aim like in other games of the type, you use third person controls similar to max payne. The Cars are pretty cool, and the damage modeling is A nice twist to what you see in driver, gta, etc.There are a lot of Car types, and you can also customize your car.The only downside is the cars Handle like in true crime, which isn't a good thing.Online play is Great as well, where teams of up to 12 can engage in numerous gametypes.

Overall, this game is the full package, and you would be doing yourself an injustice by not purchasing it.

A good entry point into the world of saints row which admittedly does eventually become odd this ground level game is perfectly enjoyable as a gangster experience so to speak even if it's fairly generic

This game is really the start of a wonderful game series. As the first Saints Row it is a perfect re-invention of the sandbox genre. 10/10!

I am a big GTA fan. I love everything about Grand theft auto except the graphics. But what i don't like is GTA copycats. They are usually boring, dull, and just trying to make a name for itself. But Saints row is just different. Sure it is very very similar to San andreas but u have to admit, there are some features in the game that are quite original. Here are the pros and cons

Pros: Great map and GTA like experience - Graphics are pretty good - Weapons are just great and realistic - Missions and activities are usually fun - Great voice acting and cast - pretty good storyline - Characters are interesting - Great sound

Cons: Missions get a little too repetitive at times, not much creativity to the mission design - Lots of glitches - No blood or gore to add to the fun - Lacks a good ending
