Saints Row 2 is a beloved entry in the Saints Row franchise that perfectly encapsulates the series’ shift from conventional open-world crime games to a wild, over-the-top experience filled with humor, chaos, and unforgettable characters. Released in 2008, this sequel builds upon the foundation of its predecessor, offering players a sprawling city to explore, an engaging storyline, and a level of customization that was ahead of its time. If you’re looking for a game that embraces the outrageous while delivering a thrilling gameplay experience, Saints Row 2 is a must-play.

Set in the fictional city of Stilwater, the game begins with your character waking up from a coma, ready to reclaim their place as the leader of the Saints after a brutal gang war left you for dead. The narrative is packed with drama, revenge, and outrageous scenarios that make for an engaging storyline. The characters you encounter, from fellow Saints to rival gang members, are memorable and add a layer of depth to the plot. The writing is sharp and filled with dark humor, making every mission and cutscene entertaining.

One of the standout features of Saints Row 2 is the sheer amount of freedom it offers players. You can approach missions in various ways, and the open-world design encourages exploration and experimentation. Whether you want to drive fast cars, participate in crazy side activities, or engage in full-on gang warfare, the game gives you the tools to create your own mayhem. From street racing and insurance fraud to activities like “Homicide” and “Fight Club,” the variety of side missions keeps the gameplay fresh and engaging.

Customization is another area where Saints Row 2 shines. The game allows you to personalize your character’s appearance, outfits, and even your gang’s look, making it easy to create a unique identity. The level of detail in customization was groundbreaking for its time, giving players the chance to express their creativity in a way that few games at the time could match. You can also customize your vehicles, adding to the fun of creating your own personal style in the chaotic world of Stilwater.

The combat and driving mechanics are satisfying and improved from the first game. Gunplay feels fluid and responsive, and the variety of weapons at your disposal—from shotguns to rocket launchers—ensures that you can tackle any situation with style. Driving through the city is equally exhilarating, with a wide range of vehicles to choose from. Whether you’re cruising around in a muscle car or commandeering a tank, the sense of speed and control adds to the excitement of the game.

What truly sets Saints Row 2 apart is its sense of humor and willingness to embrace absurdity. The game doesn’t take itself too seriously, which is evident in its outrageous mission designs and quirky side activities. From battling rival gangs with a giant inflatable mascot to participating in ridiculous mini-games, the developers clearly had a blast crafting an experience that’s as funny as it is fun.

Visually, Saints Row 2 may not compete with modern graphics, but it has a distinct style that adds to its charm. The vibrant environments and character designs create a memorable atmosphere that complements the game’s tone. The soundtrack is equally impressive, featuring a mix of licensed music that enhances the overall experience and keeps the energy high as you navigate the city.

In summary, Saints Row 2 is a standout title that perfectly captures the essence of chaotic, over-the-top gameplay. Its engaging story, diverse gameplay mechanics, and endless customization options create a memorable experience that resonates with fans of the genre. Whether you’re new to the series or revisiting this classic, Saints Row 2 delivers a wild ride filled with laughter, action, and unforgettable moments. If you’re looking for a game that embraces the absurd and lets you unleash chaos on a grand scale, this installment is an absolute must-play!!
Definetely the best saints row out there

  • Schlechter Port
  • Deutsche Zensur (so schlimm, dass es das spiel noch schlechter laufen lässt)
Best Saints Row game ;)

This game is really amazing, and an absolute gem from an era where games were made with love and care.

Graphics wise it is dated, but gameplay is a lot of fun. Combat is always fun, and progressing the gang from nothing to owning the city is so satisfying.

The best Saints Row game. This game is part of my childhood. Still a blast to play today.

Great character creator. All the different gang factions have fun and unique bosses.

The writing is sometimes laugh out loud funny.
  • Fun Sandbox
  • Great Characters
  • Great Music
  • Some Bugs and Glitches
Saints row 2 was absolutely incredible and its even more fun with a friend. The PC version doesn't do it justice but with the help of the modding community the game holds up to the console versions...
  • Fun
  • Great game to play with a friend
  • engaging story
  • PC Port is buggy
  • Graphics are from 2008
  • driving isn't immersive (if I had to pick a 3rd)
