  • Why must you compare this game to GTA???

  • I thought this was meant to be a REVIEW . It sounds more live a comparison study.....

  • " 6inches from their face"... LOL!!

  • I have played saints row 1 and two only once but the third is really fun. I'm thinking of buying the other two and play through all of the story

  • GRAND THEFT AUTO V IS COMING SOON!!!

  • Volition games and Rockstar Games CANNOT be compared, they're both amazing games, and distinctive to each other. Please, Fanboys, I respect your opinions, but this is going to fucking far.

  • I played the original Saints Row back in 2006 when i first got my Xbox 360 and it was alright but i never bothered to complete it and i totally just skipped Saints Row 2, but i recently just played Saints Row 3 and i liked it a lot, but everybody is saying that is sucks and the 2nd one is the best? Can someone give me some reasons why the 2nd one is better?

  • @The12Jacob in my opinion, the third one was too crazy and out of it. first one was ok, the second one was the best and i still play it alot, and the third one i sold after having it for like 5 days. it got really boring and it didnt seem like it was "gangster" anymore. it was too unrealistic. the second one was too but it stuck with the story and had some good customization options. the 3rd was too new and even mainstream in my opinion.

  • @The12Jacob I think people were more into the great plot the carries over into the second one from the original saints row, third was a complete reboot, but gameplay was great, as a sr fans i wish they could of pick up right they left off buy going after Dex.

  • Saints Row the Third kicks the shit out of this one! :D

  • IF you have LIFE!

  • whats this on looks like a ps2 game

  • Not only that in the first game you play as the good-guy gang who is trying to eliminate all other gangs to achieve peace. In sr2 he turned to an asshole, don't get me wrong its fun to play as a dick but don't make the saints a nice guy gang and then turn them into all the other gangs. You even kill the leader of the saints from the 1st in the 2nd for having a conscience.

  • it may not be very serious but I feel that sr3 is beginning to get ridiculous. To the point where the gameplay may be more fun but I couldn't give two shits about the story. This wasn't the case with sr2, I just think sr3 is all humour and nothing else, I mean when you shot carlos in sr2 there was no silly jokes, I just cannot believe that a serious moment like that would happen in sr3.Not to say that sr2 wasn't ott.

  • @mistaswagify. Sr3 is not going to be 1/10th as awsome as gta 5

  • who else like s to just say fuck the missions and just fuck around with people?

  • This is so much better than Saints Row 3

  • @mistaswagify gta 5 isn't out dumbass

  • sr2 > gta4 sr3 > gta 5

  • @mistaswagify where does saints row 4 go?

  • @smoothcriminaldude sr4 > gta92

  • @mistaswagify HAHAHAHA U WISH DUDE!!!! XD

  • saints row 2 was not really good u has to have a full bar of respect to just do one mission also the controls are very bad and confusing game also looks bad for its year (2008) am glad saints row 3 is not like this saints row 3 looks like a movie sometimes and has one of the best controls for a sandbox game

  • @vladixpp You should work on your grammar instead of playing videogames.

  • More like Sims meets GTA.

  • As a gun owner, LMFAO @ guns going off when they drop.

  • Does this game support trophies?

  • @DarksydeMike91 nope man sorry

  • i like both gta and saints row , but in my OPINION i think saints row is more fun

  • There's no download Code for Saints Row 2 i the European Version of The third. Fuck you THQ.

  • Am I the only one that preferred this to the new saints row?

  • this is free if buy sr3

  • Got SR3 used. Still got the code for Saints Row 2.

    Problem, newfags?

  • @NekoNickKun Yez. You ze faggot u asswhole. Peoplpe zike you needs 2 b shoveyd down anotze perzon's azz. Go eat buttwhip!

  • @juliuswhiteman that's exactly why im here. The angry dude turned me off to 3. Looks like 2 is gonna be it. :)

  • I got this game for free ;)

  • ign-bad reviews since 2008.

  • The third comes with a dowload code for two if u buy it on ps3 not sure about xbox

  • @Blckhawk31011 or just buy it on playstation plus

  • @MySpencer12345 i get it for free because i got saints row the third

  • Why can they just add trophies wtf

  • @rockstargames1998

    is that a bad thing ? 3rd one is the best but overall they are all fucking fun and will keep u busy for a while on ur console,

  • Saint's Row 2 is so much better than Saint's Row The Third. The map is bigger, there's more customization and clothing options, it had more side missions and it just has basically so much more things to offer.

  • @comedybenj u must be smoking nothing can beat saints row 3

  • @bh4bm Why is there hardly any clothes options?

  • "Not trying to be Gta" Are you drunk?

  • @TheRitchardgaleHater You're thinking of the first saints row. Saints 2 and 3 are NOTHING like GTA other than the fact they are both open world games.

  • @xGHOSTXRECONx I have S2 you know

  • Ok getting it free on the pc cause im a gamefly member thats pretty cool.

  • Getting this game for free because I bought saints row 3 new. :)

  • Saints Row 2 > Saints Row The Third...

  • @JizzMilk i agree with you, but hopefully the third will get dlc that brings back some great elements from the second

  • Got this game yesterday! Yay! It's fun. MY OPINION IS I like it better than GTA IV. I THINK SR2 is better than GTA IV.

  • i like both gta and saints row

  • less serious wacky nephew..

    adds pretty fine with the one i heard about sr3 "retarded cousin"

  • The only difference between SR2 and GTA4 I can notice is that in SR2, you can customize your character. Thus, it is the better game.

  • gta sucks why must it be the game that every other game is compared to? just like dumbasss cod

  • 65 people are awkward teenagers trying to dance

  • Comment removed

  • "Small game"? GTA IV is NOT a small game

  • @jozh911 yes it is

  • @unblockedbridge how is it a small game?

  • @jozh911 because niko took an arrow to the knee

  • one thing i like about sr2 is that it follows from sr1

  • For the record - this game IS trying to be like GTA. Just not GTA 4. GTA 1 and 2 were all about doing insane stunts and killing people in ridiculous ways.

  • @daenarmorril u mean the old one where u play from the top down view

  • Good game but a bit glitchy. Voice acting is top quality,story and graphics nothing special,gameplay is fun.Story 6 Graphics and presentation 6, Sound 8, Gameplay 8.5. Overall 8/10 for me

  • auto aim are for losers

  • How come there's no online multiplayer (excludes co-op) in Saints Row The Third when there is in the 1st two. Saints Row the third has finally nailed being better than GTA IV but not San Andreas.

  • i personally prefer saints row over gta just because its more insane and less realistic.

    don't get me wrong i love reality but its good to get away from it

  • @TheFunkysquirrel106 i like GTA better, cause of the city, story, and characters. Realism works sometimes, but games are to have FUN in, not live another life

  • @JasonCsonic +1

    I personally think SR is awesome as hell, but I cant say GTA4 isnt fun. As much as people say blowing the shit out of everything is entertaining, I like to shoot someone in the knee and watch them fall down a flight of stairs(thanks to euphoria), its the little things...

    but I have to say video games to provide a good way to live a...different life, and thats not necessarily a bad thing..

    real life kinda blows...

  • @civiccruiser117 yeah.

  • *third

  • This or saints row the hird

  • @TheXxAfflictionxX look up Angry Joe's review of the third one. he'll explain why you should get this one instead.

  • still waiting for Gta 5 but might as well get Saints row The Third as least it is still better than Gta 4

  • @tony1985ize pretty much, saints row did what made gta so great they should have stopped trying to improve it after gta san andreas

  • Saints row 3 is so much more ridiculously over the top than this. Cant wait to get it!

  • i like this reviewer =) he dont say that saints row is the same like gta4 GOOD

  • gta and saints row both are diffrent games and they are both fun also stop thinking like fanboys

  • i like saints row WAY better than gta4. gta4 sucked but san andreas was fun

  • @OsamaKickedMYdog

    I think it doesn't

  • thumbs up if this is better than GTA 4

  • @liam5351

    *cough*

  • @liam5351 hell no saints row 2 is more fun sometimes but gta 4 kant be beat so much effort and work went into that game.

  • Gettin iy got freee

  • @Sovietsniper123 same here  ;)

  • @OsamaKickedMYdog if you get it for ps3 yah

  • @walshamoldboy can you shut up?

  • F-CKING ADDS!

  • Wtf is system link?

  • @ximowilson Its when you get two Xboxes two TVs next to each other and play multiplayer with 8 people.

  • @ximowilson It's connecting the two systems with a cord. It's basiclly xbox live at your house with someone elses system.

  • Scorsese eh? uhm sure!

  • can u be male aswell

  • @TheGorman09 of course

  • 0:13 "was any one hit, need a lawyer" FUCKING FUNNY

  • @ZOMHO13 its a fun game and has a good reply value, graphics pop here and there but its funny, insane and zanny, i give it a 9/10 and if u could afford the 20-30 dollars (yes some gamestop want 28.72 for the game which is werid) i say pick it up and add to your library of games for years to come, i did get bored of it but i layed off for a couple of months and started playing it again cause the achivments are hard as heck to get.

  • SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME!!!!

    How good is this game out of 10

    Does this game get boring easy/quickly

    Should i get it

  • @ZOMHO13 8.8

  • What pisses me off in this game is that it would freeze on me sometimes...

  • @GamerBlock3D ya i agree played it today and it froze haha

  • screw both...Mafia II = da shit

  • @DarkForcez2010 you cant do shit in mafia 2 besides the main story

  • @Xxemmanuelx yeah and thats really anoing

  • @Xxemmanuelx *or dl a mod "Free ride"

  • @Xxemmanuelx yh but the story is superb

  • @KostadinovAl hell yeah it is

  • @Xxemmanuelx Yeah though I enjoyed the game I wish to see more in the sequel.If there will be.

  • cheek out my game play

  • i loved this game im on the second last mission but havent got around to don it atm only one problem..........the side mssions u need to do to get respect to do nexty mission i wont get the third unless it doesnt have those side quests

  • This game is the reason I started smoking weed...

  • Lol why are we watching this

  • this wasnt really that "wacky" just run and shoot kinda thing, but now with SR3 they made up some notion of SR is a wacky out of this world game where you have rabbits running around etc. in other words of the developers, lets not to try to compete with rockstar and just make a fun OVERLY crazy game.

  • Does IGN have a problem with akward teenagers and the way they dance?

  • as much as i love saints row, they dont hold a fucking candle to GTA

  • @BrandonDaProdigy lmao yeah they do

  • GTA fun, Saints Row fun. What's the problem?

  • @DWarrior4

    graphics

    story

    presentation

    gameplay

  • @DWarrior4 Dude,which one would you recommend,Saints row 2 or Saints row 3?,i am not sure i would be able to run saints row 3 well but i might..just wondering which one is better...

  • @DWarrior4 in this economy..for some gamers.... THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE !!!!!!!!!!

  • @DWarrior4 ikr

  • @DWarrior4 gta: fun at first then boring

    saint's row: always fun

  • GTA 5 is gonna b the powerhouse with the crazy graphics and mechanics but saitns row is gonna let u do the shit u dream about. CAnt wait for BOTH.

  • is this spit screen?

  • I'm downloading this now

  • Comment removed

  • Saints Row's cool, but GTA is waaayy better.

  • @Darius135gease yeah but im still getting sr 3

  • @Darius135gease not really..

  • @15Sebastiannn Really.

  • @Darius135gease 4 better than sr 2 yeah... but sr 3 is gonna kick gta 5's ass...

  • @15Sebastiannn Fuck that! 

  • @Darius135gease ... lol k..

  • @15Sebastiannn Yeah mafacka.

  • @15Sebastiannn gta 5 is going to be way better

  • @Valorage1 Thats why every Sandbox 3rd person shooter is referred as a GTA Clone. Not hating on Saints Row, But your comment proves to be stupid.

  • y is there no 480p for this?

  • @daneroverg lolwtf

  • "Its Not GTA, But Dont Let That Keep U Away" U Dumbass Thats The Reason Why I Love It, Its Not Gta. If I Wanted To Play GTA I Would Play Gta IV.

  • Back when IGN had almost good reviews. TROLOLOLOLO...

  • reviewers make the ugliest ass faced carachters EVER

  • GTAIV was okay. But this is better imo.

  • @FranticFatality

    Coming from a 16 year old...

  • @Kolgox

    What does my age have to do with anything? If fact, teens prefer better graphics and realism so they would pick IV. It's my opinion, don't get so offended by it.

  • @FranticFatality

    Nooo... Kids prefer silly and immature Games. Therefore, seeing as you are 16, nobody cares about YOUR opinion because kids don't understand what makes a great game compared to games with horrible graphics and pathetic coding. SR2 should be rated lower than 18+.

  • @Kolgox

    This is common for you dumb GTA fans to say. Just because SR is fun and immature doesn't make it bad. And 16 year olds are TEENS, not kids. Get it right. You don't have a good reason to say why SR sucks exceot that it is ''silly'' I'd rather it would be silly than boring.

  • @FranticFatality

    Horrible Graphics and pathetic coding IS a good reason to say why SR2 Sucks.

    I'm looking for forward to SR3 though...

  • @Kolgox

    Those are minor shit that I don't care about. This is my opinion by the way. Saying something dumb like that shows that you are the immature one. And you are 18? 2 years older than me. Yeah, big difference....

    Boring story, useless minigames, obnoxious characters, repetitive missions, tedious weapons and dull city is a good reason to why IV sucks.

  • @FranticFatality

    Yep, big difference.

    I can drink in Bars.

  • i like this game. its fun. but nothing can beat gta. all gta games are awsome. san andreas is the best game exsperians i ever had

  • @Pokemonblast1

    It'll be beaten by SRTT.

  • liked it but got bored with doin the side quests do be able to do the actual story missions  im on the 2cnd last misson

  • this is just like bf3 and mw3....gta and saints are both great games gta 4 just had a sucky, faggot, stupid, russian like, horrible choice main character but it was great! saints is always over the top so thats great too its a good change of pace......if they were the exact same then judge like total miner and minecraft.....get the third and get 5 next year

  • hmm the way i see it saints row is like a new San Andreas with better graphics and scenery yeah looks pretty cool

  • gta 4 took it way too serious :/

  • SR2 = fun; GTAIV = realism (and fun)

  • @Ayman170Turbostar SR2 complete and epic customisation (and fun)

  • @Ayman170Turbostar and the worst gaming character ever!

  • @Ayman170Turbostar LOL people have done the samething with BF and COD

  • @Ayman170Turbostar sr3 vs. Gta 5... holy shit

  • @15Sebastiannn dude it shouldnt even be compared

  • @cpms5151 Yeah I know, Sr 3 is too amazing

  • @15Sebastiannn ha,i honestly dont think sr3 will be what you think it will be,it will be fun,but its not going to be better than gta 5,if you played gta sa then you would agree with me

  • @Ayman170Turbostar how the hell is gta realistic at all??

  • car physics are the most unrealistic I've ever seen (I played it via ONLIVE)

  • Ever wanted to see a cross between Dead Rising 2 and GTA IV? Well this is your game!

  • Introducing OnLive....urge to kill risING

  • all the women in saints row look like chinese lady boys

  • I love this much more than GTA4.

  • 52 people got killed by a door

  • @PcGaMeRiSt

    mafia 2 shouldn't be compared to these games, mafia to is a 3rd person shooter not a sandbox.
