    Just finished it there with a few bits left to do, over all I really enjoyed the story some genuine lol moments and the choice of music to play at key points of the game was hilarious.

    I thought it benefited by being more compact in terms of the area size there wasn't that feeling of "awwww do i have to drive all the way over there" that I had with the other games, but the city seemed devoid of life for the most part, very little use made of some great looking locations, and very little if any use made of water ways. I found the driving ok personally.

    90% of the music was dire like others mentioned.

    Disappointed in this. The story is short, but it is good. I just can't handle the random/quirky overload. Co-Op is still fairly glitchy and not as good as I thought it would be.

    That did my head in too, took me ****ing ages to do it. Unfortunately you just have to keep trying over and over again. You need to be very accurate shooting out each of the wheels - do this quicky before that idiot blows up the truck.

    This is a great laugh! Loving the humour. The 2 boys singing to a song on the radio is just brilliant!

    Yesterday was my last day of holidays and I had promised myself that I was going to get stuck into this game during my time off (never enough time - SWTOR being the main culprit this time).

    It's been very enjoyable and silly and fun - just what you'd expect from a Saints Row game and I'm looking forward to playing more of it this evening. I was last on a mission where I had to
    protect the FBI nerdy lady from air with a rocket launcher which was proving very troublesome because I kept getting too trigger happy and accidentally blowing her car up
    :D

    I modified a car with the lambo doors the other day. And was wondering if you put a spoiler on it does it serve the perpose of holding down the car at high speeds? Like in real life. (Sorry if its a stupid quistion)

    Is this game worth getting? I'm tempted to get it when I finish up with exams.Hopefully make a few videos on it. I thought SR2 was pretty good.This looks better.

    It's good, but smaller and shorter than SR2 with less to do, and less variety. That said the main story is tighter and there are some genuine lol moments :D

    I played with 2 different characters and for some reason it was better using a female character.

    Well there's that lol, but really it just seemed better with a female leader of the saints especially during scripted parts like singing in the car on the way to one of the missions, lets not mention the gimp chariots though :D
