Good game but wait for the bargain price
The games plays similarly to the other saints row game except for one thing.. you have POWERS!!. It seems to me like the creators of this game threw caution to the wind and created some kind of God mode. In the beginning, the game can be a little rough but as you start to power up it becomes easier and easier. After awhile driving in a car is useless as you can glide and run faster then a car. You can spend hours just gliding thru the town picking up power ups to give you more powers. There are the usual side missions and games. The games help out because as you go thru the missions you will see that they kinda follow the games you have been playing. You could say the games are practice for the missions. You have the usual weapons except now alien ones are introduced.
The music thank goodness can be turned off and the graphics are good with slight glitches which can or can not be attributed to the "game". I would have to say that the game at times is way over the top bordering on silly. There are times when you will be sitting there saying to your self why am I doing this in the game?? This is way too silly. Hey I am not against silly but too silly to me is not good at all. Once you have started to power up the game becomes easier to the point where the missions become tedious. As usual this game suffers from the easy to hard missions. Some missions are very easy some hard and only because they do the usual over the top enemies. Some missions there will be some enemies and some way too many enemies. They over compensate for the ease by putting way too many enemies.
Overall I would have to say that this is a fun game but I must warn you in the beginning you might not like the game. The whole alien thing kinda threw me off and I felt it was silly. After playing the game awhile it grows on you so give it some time. I would not recommend buying this game new because there is nothing here that makes this game special from the other GTA clones. I would say save your money get GTA V then buy this one when it gets cheaper. There is some fun here but not enough to warrant paying $50 for when GTA V is almost here.
