does it actually make saints row 2 look better?

The comparisons are always going to be made, but up until now THQ have shied away from acknowledging there complete rip off (all be it a good one) of the GTA franchise. But now they have produced a video comparing the various features of the two games, and using the GTA font.

If I'm honest it kinda doesn't make their product look any better to me but simply shows that they are clutching at straws.

Do you think this was funny or just a lame attempt to get one over on one of the best games so far this year?

San andreas much?

I don't have a problem with what THQ did...I actually thought it was sort of funny. More power to them if they have the balls to smack GTA IV upside the head.

Eschatos

It was lame, but I still want the game.

I think it was fair of them to do especially because I think Saint's Row 2 looks like a hell of a lot more fun than GTAIV is.

I also think this was front paged AND cblogged about a half dozen times already. Yesterday.

It looks like fun and a very different experience from what GTA has to offer. Of course, what they aren't saying is that they probably won't have the depth of character or plot that GTA IV has. I'll probably check it out when it hits the bargain bin, just as I did with the first game.

I found it very funny myself, and it has made me want that game much more than GTA.
