Hmm, should I get GTA's expansion or Saints Row?

I you liked Vice City and or San Andreas you will LOVE Saint's Row. The music, art style, gun play, whacky characters, driving, all that kinda stuff is great.

God I wish I had more time to game because I really like this one. For some reason, I don't mind doing the side missions in SR2 as opposed to SR1 where I absolutely hated detracting from the main story.

Gotta finish GTA then get to this one.

from kotaku :

Time to dust off your copies of Saints Row 2, kids, because developers Volition have revealed that three new pieces of downloadable content are on their way to the 360 & PS3.

The first is called "Ultor Exposed", and will be out on April 16. It will include three new missions, a new co-op game mode where you score points for carnage, and a few new maps, vehicles and weapons.

As for the other two pieces of DLC, there's no details at this point.

Ultor will be 800 MS Points/USD$10. Which, in the wake of Lost & Damned's smorgasbord of content, seems awfully steep.

Maybe the PS3 owners will get their trophy patch .

IGN explains more on the DLC and has a cool trailer for it, for $10 I might get it. I would rather pay $10 for the Fallout content than SR2 3 missions

That new plane looks fun, and some of the costumes look okay. But only 3 missions for 10 bucks? I dont care about MP maps, or Tara Patrick. This should be 400 points at most. Man im glad Rockstar isnt like THQ, they would have made us pay 60 dollars for TLAD.

I agree 800 points is too much for this, but it is a great game!

Been playing this a lot lately and I'm loving it. The moment I got on a bike with a samurai sword in my hands and The Final Countdown started playing, I knew I was going to like this more than GTAIV.

Does this game always run like shit? I've played through Jailbreak tonight and it barely broke 20fps, with the boat scene getting no more than 10fps at most. Is the rest of the game this choppy?

That part was super choppy for me to, but other than that I have only had one other time for about 2 minutes when I had 3 gang rating and 5 star cop rating during Rampage.

Just downloaded the DLC. The three new missions are......decent, to say the least. I beat them in under an hour. The voice acting from Tera sounds horrible, it's very corny. The new cars are interesting, the Scout is fun to just blow stuff up with. Haven't played the new maps yet, so I don't know how those are. If you love SR2, I'd pick it up, but IMO, it's not worth 800 points.

I could never get into the first one, is the 2nd one better or just more of the same?

I enjoyed Saints Row 2 much more then part 1. In part 1 everything was just much harder and not as enjoyable but there are still a few activities in 2 that are tough but it is a fun little game especially if you play the missions co-op with a friend.

I still need to finish some of the missions in co-op now that they released the patch to fix the buggy co-op achievements that would not unlock before so if anyone wants to play just PM me your Live gamertag.

04-26-2009, 10:26 PM

I'll probably get the DLC since the game is so much fun. Hopefully they make another sequel.

Here's a review for the dlc.... http://www.xbox360achievements.org/news/news-2574-x360a-Review--Saints-Row-2-s-Ultor-Exposed-DLC.html

3/10.... pretty dissapointing. I was really hoping it would be good.

I had this on PS3, finished it and traded it in.

But I just re-bought it for the 360 and I forgot what a good game it is.

For the DLC, do you reccomend I wait until I'm half way in or almost done the game before getting the DLC?

Im having issues with my friend with a bug, we have been playing coop so far no prob but getting to "Airborne Assault" for the Sons of Samedi stops when iur guys are in the helicopter and just sits thereand we cant complete it, but we can each do it individually if needed. We really want to get the coopmission achievements, anyone have advice? Like if we both do thismission individually, can we go back later in coop in hopes this might work? should we just try the mission repeatedlly?

I read recently that they are coming out with even more DLC for this. If it's the same $10 for 3 missions of crap that they just released, they can keep it.

I'm about 72% done with the game right now and have beaten all of the gangs. I'd love just a little more content, but I'm happy with how things turned out for the most part. It's a shame it's almost over though. I have a few Ultor missions left and I'm done.

Yea, later tonight is fine with me. Anyone who wants to help just add me on XBL. Thanks in advance!

So moojuiced was going to help me until we realized that he has DLC for SR2 and I don't and players are incompatible... :(

Is there anyone that can help me get through this mission so my mate and I can get the coop mission achievements/finish the game? Let me know thanks!

Yes, new DLC is out. Supposed to add some new vehicles, clothes, missions.

Interesting price at 560.

DLC Contents, with pics:http://community.saintsrow.com/blogs/?p=554

Looks like more of the same. At least it's a well rounded package I guess. But no new helicopter :(
I can't believe it's still only 3 missions, when thats what the majority of the complaints were about the 1st one.
At least this kinda looks like the batmobile http://community.saintsrow.com/blogs/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/elite01.jpg

I have been playing saints row 2 because I borrowed it from my cousin. I've never played the first though.

I want to know which is better?

What differences are there?

Should I get the first one even though I played the second because I love the second so far.

Scorch

07-24-2009, 09:40 PM

there's really no point in going backwards, no. the second just built upon the first.

another recommendation for SR2 only. no point in going back.

i dont know, maybe it is just me. but i liked the story line of saints 1 and with the price it is, i would play it again, (hell i actually just picked it up off of goozex for 150 points even though i have beat it multiple times.) but the second one is better, but i say you should give the first one a spin.
