Great remake with a few caveats that makes me hope for another remake or something to make the game feel more complete.

Plays great, feels great, looks great, sounds great, a lot of it is great.

But no THPS3 maps, weak CAS (like really? No option to add glasses or accessories? Skateboard customization rules in this game though), special tricks are a little lacking and online offers are very limited. And minor gripe of no peds and goals don't vary like they do in THPS3, but that's probably just for the factor THPS2 had.

Anyways, it bangs. It's a fantastic game. If you never played a THPS game, this is the one to play. And if you have, this is a good one unlike THPS HD or THPS 5. And if have THUG Pro, this is still a good option if you don't want the insane engine glitches and quirks in online.

Activision got me ♥♥♥♥♥♥ thinking they're going to get me to buy this game for 70 bucks.

I want I-No to crush my gigachad nuts

I AM RECLAIMER OF MY NAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMEEEEEEE

Tl;dr: B. Jenet is kinda cute.

This is the best Fatal Fury game you can possibly get on PC. I still think Real Bout Fatal Fury is the best entry, but Garou is still a solid game. And bundled with the rollback netcode that works like a charm makes this game a blessing. I think the only real downside is the balance. It's kinda wack, but what can you do? Besides, game still plays well. Biggest thing this game has is such good pixel art. I feel like this was made to flex the power of the Neo Geo and it's really good. Even today, it looks bangers. So I recommend this to anyone who wants to play a good ol' fashioned slobber knocker.

YOSUKE WILL NOW

This is the first game where there's no wrong answer to the question "who's the best girl".

I think this game is arguably the worst in the Saints Row series. Weapon upgrades can make other weapons completely obsolete, missions are weaker than the next game, bleak map, story isn't as good as the previous game, upgrading your character can sometimes just kill the fun, customization isn't as robust as SR2 but not as enjoyable as SR4, bad jokes that aren't really all that funny compared to other SR games (Fart In A Jar was never funny), etc.

But that's not to say that this game is bad. Far from it. It's still a very fun game to play and cutscenes are a lot of fun to see first time around. Gunplay is pretty fun (K6 with grenade launcher is wild when crouching) and certain mission set pieces are pretty cool to play. I think this is an alright game for what it is, but what I'm basically saying is that other Saints Row games are much better.

If you never played Saints Row before, I'm certain you've heard of this one, especially now, since the game is getting a remaster treatment. I've decided to post this here since you might consider buying this version of the game while you wait for the remaster to make its way over to Steam (it's going to Epic first) or whatever you plan on doing, I have a hard time recommending this one but at the same time, Saints Row 2 is still a buggy mess (as of April 6, 2020), so I would tell you to buy this if you prefer a game that is much more faster paced and can be done in a week but you want it to be grounded.

If you want a better Saints Row game with this kind of wackiness, just buy Saints Row 4. But if you want to play the best, play Saints Row 2. It's Backwards Compatible on Xbox One and PlayStation Now has it in their catalog. The PC version is still playable, it just runs awful. But there will be a patch for that game soon and it comes with DLC packs from console versions of the game, so the wait will be worth it. If you came from Saints Row 4, I guess this will be a fine fix, although you'll probably be disappointed over the lack of newer content (same city, side activities aren't as fun, lack of new clothes) but this might be a nice fix.

If you've played Saints Row 2, I don't think this will capture you like that game did. It's just not as fun as that one and the story is not as enticing.

Not everyone has UNO, ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. It doesn't come free with your ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Xbox. But it's UNO. So, gift it.
