Volition seems to think so:

and that does look fun.

Lol, looks fun.

If only we could merge Saints Row's best qualities with GTA's, we'd have quite a game on our hands.

It looks like It'll have some cool features, but it'll have to do alot more to be better than GTA IV.

HA! That was actually quite funny, the way they where ripping on GTA and stuff. I must say though, I had more fun with Saints Row than I did GTA. GTA had the story side of things and gameplay area on lockdown, but in every other area I feel Saints Row did an equally good job or even better. Im sure most people won't see Saints Row 2 as a better game than GTA, but I can gaurantee myself that i'll enjoy it ALOT more than GTA. Face it people, Saints Row is the new old GTA.

Mate, how is spraying people with a septic tank not entertaining? If you said art form, you would've had an arguement. But entertainment is... fun.

Does it matter? As long as it entertains, like any other form of entertainment low brow isn't neccesarily bad.

So you base your game purchases on what non-gamers think? please leave. you're driving off a damn cliff and for no apparent reason. if you so damn cynical at this point that you can't even have fun with this, find another thread to play in.

thankskbye.

Hahaha... No games are looked down upon because they are seen as children's playthings. Hell, they are called video games, for cripes sake. That could be your first major hurdle for it to become "legitimate".

If you want to make that argument, you'd have to ignore the other forms of entertainment that do also have humor in them, namely TV, Music, Movies, Art, Books, etc...

Not a topic to discuss in SW's.

Anyways, this isn't directed at Thrones, I'm sure SR2 will be fun. Have fun, but don't get so defensive when others have a different view on what "fun" is.

Wooow, I'm impressed. I might actually pick this game up now.

This might sound fanboyish, but I am so attatched to the GTA franchise that I dont know if I could have as much fun playing this game knowing it's a complete GTA rip off as I would if this game was actually a GTA game. Well, that is fanboyish really, lol.

One thing I like about it is it looks like it has that "whacky" GTA vibe that Rockstar dropped this generation. The new GTA IV was almost too serious.

the potential is there.

I like the place its heading. It seems like gta4 was going for realism so they took the edge of the series. Saints Row 2 seams to be going the other way.

I too bought into the hype and purchased the game, but unlike the majority, I can plainly see for myself that GTA4 is hardly a 10 game. It's more around an 8.5 once you get past the hype and really look at the game as a whole. Really not that impressive and I almost feel sorry for you if you think it's something incredible. Maybe you should play more games.

Ditto. Nedemis clearly thinks his opinion is factual, which it isn't. It's all subjective.
