If you have a friend who likes sandbox games, Saint's Row 2's co-op mode offers a surprising amount of fun.
As for the game itself, everything else is about average. The graphics are only ok, the gameplay is only ok, the story is only ok. But playing online with a friend really does make this a AAA experience so if you have online access and some like minded people on your friends list, this title should add plenty of smiles and laughs to your gaming hours. I'm also from Champaign so I love that they named a car the Danville lol.
