Saint's Row 2

Re: Saint's Row 2

Yeah I'm loving it, I started playing around 11pm last night and didn't stop until 4:50 am this morning and realized I've only completed 2% of it.

Game is mad fun, and looks to offer so much! Just like the first Saint's Row, I don't see myself trading this back.

Completing it 100% looks to be very exciting this time around.

Voice acting is incredible and the characters are all real easy to draw into too.

I love it all around, the side mission are insane. Septic missions I've finished 100% and they were so fun to do.

I got to the 4 wave of Zombies on that video game. And got skill due to low ammo and the fact that I had 40 zombie surrounding me.

Nice. I was debating between this one and Dead Space. I think Dead Space might win out and I'll pick this one up down the road.

It sounds great though from impressions.

yea i only have side missions left to do to get a complete 100% but im not sure i want to do them. i completed both fight clubs, Septic missions, demolition derby and 2 racing ones. but the whole tagging walls and finding cds dont really interest me.

Got a question. I have heard about these capture cards you can buy to record yourself while playing. does anyone know where I can get on of these? And what I need to use it correctly? Thanks a lot.

Re: Saint's Row 2

I loved Zombie Holocaust, still was one of my fav parts. LOL

Did the car surfing achievement this morning, that was hard as hell at first, then I rode a hand stand on an ambulance for about 3 minutes. Only 5 points though

I use a simple dazzle USB video capture device. I can capture while I play, but I have to switch the AV pack to interlaced scanning. I have the AV pack that has the component outputs plus the composite output. The composite output is what I connect to the capture device and the component outputs are connected to my monitor. It sucks to play this way because the resolution is low, but it gets the job done if you want to play while you record.

If you have a more powerful computer, you can try this black magic card to capture HD content:

It's pretty inexpensive for what it can do.

Re: Saint's Row 2

Wow. All I can say is this is sort of how GTA games use to feel. They use to be pretty comicial, pretty funny with some serious overtones. GTA4 to me, was too serious, it didn't have the same odd, zany missions past ones did, that's where SR2 has come in. So far I'm having much more fun than I did with GTA4. I'm not bashing GTA4 it was a great game on it's own but it sort of changed from what it had previously done. Tt just feels like SR2 is a lot more fun and sort of what "GTAs use to be". Mission variance, some funny parts, customization, etc.

Re: Saint's Row 2

I think it is not that GTAIV or SR2 is better than one another. They are just different. GTAIV went the more realism route, while SR2 stayed with the over the top "fun factor" stuff.

GTAIV is better from a tech stand point with physics, graphics, lighting, textures ect.

BUT SR2 is better in the fun factor. It is very easy to pick up and just have a blast.

So i look at it in that manner. SR2 is a excellent title to bring back the true meaning of gaming.....FUN. It is not breaking boundaries from a tech stand point BUT it is not needed also.

Re: Saint's Row 2

Yeah that's exactly my point.

SR2 is what GTA3 was alot like, it was vast, comical, customizable, etc.

GTAIV went a different route, less true "fun" and more technical, which is not a problem at all, like I said it was still one of the best games I ever played.

But I'd def. recommend this game for any sandbox fans, it's a blast.

Re: Saint's Row 2

Just got my copy...funny story.

Saint's Row 2 is almost completely sold out in the hood(Jamaica, Queens), much to my surprise. Gamestop--nuthin..even "Mr. Game" was sold out. So I hop into a store that I don't go to very often and they sold it to me free of tax! I gave them $100 and got 40 back. Guess where I'm going from now on!
