Saints Row 2 is a game where you play the leader of a gang called Saints Row. Throughout the game you play various missions to gain control of other hoods. I believe that this game is sort of like GTA but so much better because there is a lot more to do.
At the start of the game i was very impressed with the amount of options they give you to design your character. Of course you can choose from female or male, but you can even choose facial expressions, taunts, and fighting styles. As in every game you have to work your way up, so in this game you have to play missions and strongholds to gain respect, and with respect comes the right to play more missions, more customizing options for your gang and being able to own more property.
I liked being able to explore more buildings and having more of my surroundings open to explore. Just don't get stuck in the mall. I had a difficult time finding my way out of there since they don't tell you where the exit is and there is about four levels. But there is some interesting clothes stores in there that sell halloween type costumes including a pirate and a cat costume. There are also some cars in there that are fun to drive.
You can also store multiple vehicles at your homes you have purchased. I also liked being able to save from the menu, because when i'm done, i'm done. I don't like having to go and find a save point, that really sucks. If you want to change your appearance, you will need to visit the plastic surgeon. Each visit will cost you $500.00.
When you purchase your homes in this game you can also choose which style you want you home to be in. Also, you can choose the the types of tvs, beds, tables, and you can also have stripper poles.
I found the missions in this game to be actually beatable, not too hard, but also not so easy that you beat the game in no time. For me this game has a lot of replay value because there is so much to do.
I hope you enjoyed it. Thanks for reading!
