    Saints Row 2

    I never got to play the first one. But I have heard it been described as the poor man's GTA.

    I know it is due out soon. I googled for a review and found this: http://www.n4g.com/ps3/News-203907.aspx.
    But I cannot seem to find my way to the full review.

    What do you think.
    Is this anything worth looking at based on the original?

    Yes definately, the original was more fun than GTA4 in my opinion.

    I'll certainly be picking it up.

    Good riddance. Wish I'd done it about a year ago.

    Expensive month

    I think i'll just go with LBP on release (I keep thinking Little Big Adventure when i write that) and get the others when there is a deal, ie COD4 going down to £20 before christmas at Game.

    The first Saints Row was so dire that this would need to be a whole new game to even be considered.

    Definately will

    I'll just wait for a decent offer. I will probably end up getting Fallout 3 and LBP when they come out and then wait for the others to fall in price. Need to save some for the summer games drought.

    Actually i really, really want to play Far Cry 2 as well

    Re: Saints Row 2

    I just saw the first 10 minutes of the game in YouTube.

    The way the story is looks quite good. It looks dated though. No cover system by the looks of things.

    It looks like some of the older GTA IV. Hmm....... Think I'll be spending money elsewhere.
