Saints Row: You can bow down to the Row

bykjell1979 Feb 3, 2007
64 Helpfuls 65 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros great graphics, familiar controls, can import music, decent story
Cons missions lack flair, not much is new, fringe music tracks, not much replay value
Recommended it? Yes

Grand Theft Auto: Vice City is the one game that caused me to defect from PC gaming to console gaming. I bought my Playstation 2 back in December of 2002 and the rest is history. Given the success of the GTA franchise, many have looked to imitate the style in many different ways. And some games... Read full review »

Yet another gang war, taking over yet another city. Yet it's fun!

Pros Pretty good graphics, nice explosions, wide open world, interesting missions and...
Cons glitchy as hell, can get monotonous at times
Recommended it? Yes

Saint's Row, by THQ and Volition, is the latest phenomenon on the Xbox 360, rushing to the top of the charts and generating a distinctive buzz among gamers. Any fan of the Grand Theft Auto series will recognize most of the elements, and it can be hard to separate the two franchises (assuming... Read full review »

Better than GTA?

byunderdawg Nov 15, 2007
34 Helpfuls 35 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros fun game
Cons not original, but don't get too elitist
Recommended it? Yes

It was bound to happen sooner or later. Saints Row for the 360 is the first "GTA clone" that is actually better than the last few GTA games in many ways. In case you don't know, "GTA clone" means a 3rd person shooter involving organized crime where the player is free to explore their surroundings... Read full review »

Attack of the GTA Clone - Saints Row

byawoolcott Oct 12, 2006
32 Helpfuls 33 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Successfully copies GTA but improves on GTA's flaws
Cons CAN SOMEONE GET A DAMNED CHECKPOINT IN HERE?!?!
Recommended it? Yes

There's been plenty of copycats since Grand Theft Auto III made sandbox gaming en vogue, but most of them have had something to differentiate themselves from Rockstar's cash cow. Saints Row, on the other hand, practically bathes in its GTA stylings – pop the game in for an unassuming player and... Read full review »

Saint's Row - The Next-Gen Grand Theft Auto?

Pros great graphics, solid storyline, excellent music
Cons world too small, no alternate vehicles, gang turf is boring.

Saint's Row – The Next-Gen Grand Theft Auto…

Until Grand Theft Auto 4 (GTA4) comes out on the Xbox 360, THQ has managed to get a preemptive strike into the world of GTA-clones with familiar Saint's Row. Referred to commonly as a carbon-copy clone of Rockstar's GTA series, I also had a... Read full review »

Filling that Void Before GTA IV

22 Helpfuls 23 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros It's GTA, but improved in many ways.
Cons Activities and missions could use some tweaking.
Recommended it? Yes

I stayed away from this title for a long time. I would sit at the store, stare at it stupidly, reach for my wallet, then decide against it. "Another GTA clone?" I asked myself. Do I really need another? Well, my fiance got sick of me staring at it stupidly and got it for me for my birthday, so I... Read full review »

One of my favorite games of 2006

bypayback123 Feb 4, 2008
17 Helpfuls 18 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Great soundtrack, Create a character, plenty of small, but innovative new features
Cons Confusing Multiplayer modes
Recommended it? Yes

I'm getting the sense that I enjoyed this game alot more than the average consumer. Before I played this game, I respected the fact that the developers weren't touting the game as a "GTA killer" (Developers, not the press). It's easy to call it a GTA rip-off by just one glance, but the truth is,... Read full review »

A Great GTA Style Game

bykowrip Sep 24, 2006
12 Helpfuls 13 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros loads of fun missions, freedom to do whatever you want, excellent graphics
Cons lacks character development of GTA, smaller map than GTA: San Andreas
Recommended it? Yes

Since the Grand Theft Auto series became so popular (and controversial), several game companies have attempted to imitate the game. Almost all of these attempts were failures or turned out to be quite different than GTA altogether. Saint's Row brings us another attempt to duplicate the fun and... Read full review »

Cons not enough types of vehicles, stupid AI

This is my first review so sorry if it seems s***

I've heard a lot of people talk about how amazing GTA 4 is and how many great features and I could help but notice a lot of the things they said were feature that have been used in saints row way before GTA 4. Saints Row takes character... Read full review »

Saints Row, a fun new sandbox game or a rip off of grand theft

byglamgyrrl_1 Mar 23, 2008

Pros Fun designing my character. I could get him drunk. Missions were fun, and engaging.
Cons It was too similar to grand theft auto, was fun but felt like deja vu.
Recommended it? Yes

I really enjoyed playing the game. the graphics are awesome, and the missions were challenging.
Although this game is extremely comparable to grand theft auto, it sets it self apart from the very beginning. Unlike grand theft, in saints row the player has complete control of the physical... Read full review »
