Saints Row 2 Part 54:The End?
1So, after doing another really rough missions with that stupid Helicopter (God, I hate flying in Video games; It always lets me know that I suck at it), we finally get to wrap things up (or do we?). Seeing that it is the end, I usually give my Final thoughts about the game here so, here we go.
Overall, I really liked this game. I enjoyed going after each of the gangs and trying to muscle in on all their territory. Each of the missions felt different and interesting (That being said, The second to last mission felt very similar to the Ronin Mission where Shogo led us to his Second-Hand Man). There some really cool mini-bosses in each of them; I happy that they set aside actual boss fights instead of letting the protagonist shoot them in a cut-scene or have them be like every other gang member we fight. Speaking of fighting, the Shooting mechanics in the game felt a little weird at first but, it's something that you can get used to it. They offer a wide range of weapons for you to use which is nice and, for the most part, they do feel like different weapons. I wasn't a particular fan of melee weapons in the game, mostly since I was fighting a bunch of people with guns so the idea of running at people with a bat was never really in my mind. On the topic of choices, there is quite an array of things to customize in this game; Clothes, appearances, the way you act/talk/interact with other people, the weapons you use, the cars you drive; it even allows you to change how your entire gang looks like. I'm a huge sucker for customization in most games in case you are wondering. There is also a fairly decent array of activities to do in order to gain respect. Personally, I thought there was a little too many races to do and not enough of the more interesting activities they had but, that is just me. Speaking of respect, I did feel like the only reason they had the respect bar was to make you go out of your way to do an activity so I'm really happy that there is not only a lot of different activities to choose from, but they aren't boring.
The Cribs in the game was a nice touch but I would have liked to have done a little more with them; After getting the first one, they never really felt too important other than getting the stat done. That being said, I really liked seeing the different fully upgraded places, Just wish I could do something important in the cribs. Now the first place you get (The one you clear out with Johnny) was really cool since it slowly got better and better as you beat the other gangs and rose in power which, I thought, was really freaking cool. It was a subtle thing they did to make you feel like you were progressing through the game.
