description
Five years have passed since your former Saints crew betrayed you. As you awake from a coma for the first time since that fateful day, you find the Stilwater you once ruled is in disarray. Unfamiliar gangs have laid claim to your territory, rival factions have taken over your rackets, and cash-hungry corporations have laid waste to your once proud 3rd Street home. Abandoned and left scarred with an unrecognizable face, you seek out a plastic surgeon to begin your new life on the streets of Stilwater.
Respect can only be earned in Stilwater, and that requires a lifestyle that reflects your unique personality. Your crib, your crew, and your character define who you are on the streets and how you are perceived. The image you portray is as important as the decisions you make in a city ruled by false bravado and impulsive behavior. The only constant is the need for an identity that reflects your individuality and is backed up by your 12 gauge.
Style and image can only take you so far in a world where actions speak louder than words. Sometimes sending a message to your enemies requires heavy lifting, like that of a rival gang member into oncoming traffic. Respect in Stilwater needs to be taken, and what better way than to grab it from the hands of a gang full of enemies by means of a satchel charge.
The fight to reclaim Stilwater does not have to be waged alone. The Saints once ruled these streets as a crew of brothers, and their return to the top can help be secured through co-operative alliances. The time has finally come to seek revenge against your rivals to reestablish your crew as the rightful kings of Stilwater.

CRAZY FUN Saint's Row 2 has a ton of stuff to do. There are the main missions which are based on gaining back the hoods that rival gangs have taken over. These missions vary in that some are driving, some are gunning and some are both. Besides the main missions there are plenty of side missions that are under the categories of Activities and Diversions. The Activities range from Insurance Fraud, Gathering up Hookers, Destroying the city to Bringing down property values by spraying crap from a sewage truck everywhere. There are also the standard "hit man" and "chop shop" missions that were in the first game. Completing these missions unlocks bonuses like cars, weapons and new abilities. They also earn you money which you can use to buy tons of clothing, weapons, ammo, and upgrades. Plus you earn respect which is needed to unlock the main missions. Diversions are fun mini games that are optional. Some diversions include base jumping, putting out fires, towing cars, and working as an EMT. These are just a few of many things to do in Stillwater. Like the first Saint's Row there are all kinds of things you can buy.
There are many vehicles which can be upgraded and customized buy driving into one of many garages. Once in your garage they are yours whenever you want them. You also have a huge selection of clothes, accessories and character customization. Where do you keep all this stuff? In you crib, where else? Spread throughout the city are places you can buy and upgrade. Here you can pick up the money you collect from the hoods you have won back and from the businesses you have bought into. You also have access to you clothes and weapons. This time around you have the option to play co-op with your friends. If that's not your thing you can try the multiplayer. Even though they removed a couple of the multiplay game modes you will still have a ton of fun.
Everyone compares SR2 with GTA4 and at its core they are similar. The difference comes in that GTA4 went for realism and SR2 went for just plain fun. In SR2 you have the option to spend all that money you have collected. Whether it is cars, clothes, homes, or weapons it gives you more of a feeling of satisfaction. If you liked GTA4 I can't see how you wouldn't love SR2.
