If you're disappointed with GTA IV you are in luck

GTA IV is a really great game IMO, however R* took out some stuff that was in earlier GTA games. Even though they took some stuff out in GTA that same stuff can be found in another game that comes out in August. Yes I'm talking about Saints Row 2. Even though I honestly support GTA, SR2 will probably capture disappointed GTA fans. Here is some stuff I found about the game that will satisfy the disappointed (They mocked SA a lot too.):

-Planes

-APCs (not exactly as tough as a tank but still good enough of an armored vehicle)

-Jet skis

-Monster trucks

-Moon buggies

-Human shields

-Peds. crowd around people that were shot.

-Total character customization

-Dual wielding weapons

-Flamethrowers

-Satchel Charges

-Mini guns

-Chainsaws, Katanas

-Limpet mines

-Stun guns

-Police will use nightsticks and pepper spray at one star.

-Bazookas (It's possible it's a RPG not a bazooka, rocket propelled grenades bounce off some stuff while rockets and missiles blow up on contact.)

 

So even though I'm basically mostly GTA, SR2 will blow away the disappointed.

SR2 is just a sh*tty version of San Andreas. And thats pretty sh*tty considering SA is sh*tty to begin with.

Oh yeah, because everyone thinks the same way You do in that world, right?

 

I've played it for 1 week. And then I gave it to a friend. I just couldn't stand all the "gangsta" crap.

 

Anyway, I've heard a lot about Saints Row and the game engine looks nice...But isn't it another 'gangsta' game? Damn, can't we have a good game with REAL gangsters? Like..huh.. Italian gangsters? Tommy Vercetti?

Are you trying to say that there were no gangs in southern California in the early-mid 90's? They weren't 'real'?

No, that's not what I said. When I said 'real', it was like saying "F'n great cool gangsters instead of those lame gangstas". Get my point? lol

^Pretty much. I actually didn't expect much of SA's features to be in GTA IV from the beginning (well, ever since I saw who the character was gonna be (when the first trailer came out)). After watching the first trailer, I knew GTA IV was gonna have a more serious feel to the game and I wasn't expecting it to be anything like GTA SA one bit, I was actually expecting it to be more like GTA III. So I wasn't disappointed.

 

I'm with williamcampbell; I couldn't stand the 'gangsta' junk that is GTASA...I also couldn't stand Toreno.

I get your point, it just stinks. So because you like Italian gangsters better than hood gangs, they are somehow more 'real'...

 

Whatever, it's just a video game to me. I couldn't care less about my characters motivation for the story-driven missions. I simply want to drive around killing things in my digital sandbox. I want as many tonka-trucks and shovels as the devs can concieve to fill my sandbox.

SR is trying to out beat GTA which they won't because GTA was the original and the sh*t yo. SR is just a do-over. I have no problem with the game's success no problem at all I'm just saying it's just a do-over of the GTA games.

More like...GTASA with next gen graphics

lol Barely next gen. I do love what SR 2 is doing, but it seems thrown together and fake. When I played Sr I liked it alot but I just couldn't FEEL the game. The music didn't match the atmosphere, or lack there of, and the characters were lame and unbelievable.

Is it possible to play next-gen games on next-gen consoles without a time machine?

No, stop being an idiot. Just go play SA on your PS2.

I don't have a PS2. I guess not having a wayback machine makes me an idiot.

The only problem with SR was the fact that the Characters were so f*cking poor.

Lame dialogue, lame, over stylistic. patronizing characters.

 

Basically it felt like they were saying "here you go morons, this will keep the droves of mindless

Fast and the furious fans happy"

 

the actual game and some of it's features were quite good, if they ever stopped going for the

'idiot dollar' they might present a real alternative to GTA

 

Until then, nah

Hmm... I'm leaning towards smart-ass... any other options to consider since you are clearly my temporal superior?

I love Saint's Row. It quickly became one of my all-time favorite games, so naturally I'm anxiously awaiting Saint's Row 2, and I strongly doubt that it will disappoint, unlike IV.

You're right that it won't disappoint, but that's only because it hasn't set an unusually high standard for itself, as is the case with GTA. People aren't expecting SR2 to be anything special, so they are unlikely to be disappointed

No offense, but speak for yourself.

Ok you may disagree, but i think that is the opinion of the majority.

For example, you are unlikely to see droves of people, waiting outside stores

so that they can get the game the second it's released,

 

For the record, i will buy the game, but i don't think it will live up to the GTA series

purely because of the bad writing and characters from the first game,

which i suspect will be regurgitated in the sequel

Wow, people need to stop posting their disappointed opinions about gta4. It's a REALLY good game, I love it. I always see stuff posted about how the game is lacking some stuff that it had before it launched, and that the game isn't what the previews said it would be. Well GTA4 has a new game engine running it, and Rockstar hasn't had a long time to work with it and fix any bugs the game had. It's like gta3, when it first came out it was a new engine Rockstar has been working with, but the game wasn't mind blowing. It was a rather simple game. As the gta series on the ps2 went on, you could see that the games obviously got better, because Rockstar was more familiar with the engine(s).Stop posting your bad opinions about the game. It still is pretty damn amazing for a first gta on the next gen consoles.

I disagree, GTA3 was the most 'min blowing' game i've ever played,

it completely blew every other game out of the water when it was released

All of my friends played SA but the farthest they even went was one person who was halfway through the game. When they played GTA4, the game was the most awesome game they've ever played. It's too soon to know how far they are but they loved the game. So I think GTA4 is aimed to the more casual gamer who doesn't have the time to unlock everything like San Andreas did.

CAR CUSTOMISATION
