Good Game But Bad PC Port.. Unplayable at Some Extend!

10/10 masterpiece

The best saints row and one of the best open world games I have ever played. However as of now this game will crash even with "fixes" almost every other minute. If you can get it on console get it there. If you still decide to get this on steam get ready to trouble shoot.

When GTA IV is in a "Worst PC port ever made" competition and their opponent is Saints Row 2

Q : Is it the best game you ever played?
A : Probably not.
Q : Is it fun?
A : Hell YES!
Q : Is worthy of time & money spent?
A : Absolutely yes.
Now stop reading the reviews.....install this game and go run a gang like you supposed to!

The game itself is fun, but game crashes too much at random times. I'm giving this down vote because its been several years to hotfix a a patch.

Don't play for the sake of your sanity

game not working anymore on my deck. ??? wont load

Where do I begin, about this video game? Saints Row 2 is a great game but the big elephant in the room is the lack of Volition to fix this game, the shutdown of Volition in August 31, 2023 and the tragedy Mike Watson a.k.a Idolninja passing away from cancer on August 5, 2021. Until Deep Silver tries to release the patch this game is unplayable. Sure is a solution to this, witch ''require some manual online fixes" but who dose this. An average gamer does not bother to do this kind of stuff. This is the job fore Deep Silver. Because they are in charge if I'm not mistaken.

Saints Row 2 is an incredibly fun game brought down by the issues a lot of older games are, being completely broken on modern computers. Crashes entering a vehicle, crashes shooting a particular gun, crashes just because. Cutscenes are completely broken with props and NPCs not being in sync at all.
I'd recommend modding the hell out of this game to make it work properly or getting the original xbox version.

The only problem I have with the game itself is that it forces you to do a side activity after every story mission to access the next, they are fun at first but after having to do 30 it gets a bit tedious. It's kinda like if in GTA IV after every mission you had to play a full game of bowling with Roman to play the next.
