This is a video review of Saints Row 2, wherein I weigh the relative strengths and weaknesses of the different gameplay mechanics and narrative conventions in an effort to, eventually, assign a numerical score denoting the game's value.

It also includes a lot of footage of my ingame avatar, which is pretty neat.

Seriously, this game is a ton of fun.

I rented it and played the shit out of it, got all the way through the story but was still sad taking it back.

It's not revolutionary...but it's a damn good time. Funny too.

That was the most awesome review I've ever seen. So eloquent and thorough. If I hadn't bought the game day one, I'd be out the door to buy it right now just based on the merits of your review. Thank you for that.

So do those go towards the "Aww nuts!" achievement where you get GS points for nut shots or do those only count if they're with bullets?

And we wonder why all the other blogs think we're immature. :) Good song choice. This is such a must-buy, for the pimp-kicking alone.

That was amazing.

I was thinking "Wow, this is a fucking sweet intro."

And it just kept going.

And I just kept smiling.

I love how the pimp convention in the middle of the video just didn't learn from their mistakes and kept running into your divine foot of justice.
