Saints Row 2 Versus GTA 4 activities video

How does Saints Row 2’s open gangster world compare to Grand Theft Auto IV’s? When you’re not playing the story mode, you’ll want to have some fun with the activities (Insurance Fraud, Fight Club, FUZZ “Fake Cop”) and diversions (Stunts, Criminal Mischief, Varied Combat) in the city of Stilwater. This not only builds up your respect level, but adds more members to the 3rd Street Saints and opens up more story missions.

Take a look at how that works in this Saints Row 2 Versus GTA 4 activities video.

With GTA 4 selling 6 million in 1 week, Saints Row 2 has a lot to prove when it comes out on October 14th, but it’s looking like it’ll be a lot of fun. Both games are/will be available on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. — Via IGN

A bit worrying that THQ are the ones behind this joke of a video, it’s as if they already know their game will pale in comparison to GTA4.

I think it just shows they know it’s inevitable their game will be compared to Rockstar’s game. So they feel they might as well run with it and show where they think their game is better/more fun. But yeh it’s laid on a bit thick.

Saints Row 2 will indeed be better than GTA 4. In fun wise and the story would also be better

Saints row 2 in comparison with gta 4, saints row 2 wins by a long shot many people think gta 4 is better but why because of the graphics. I heard a guy complain that is was last generation graphics so what? I’m surprised with a game like that that they would even have that kind of graphics even with those graphics it still glitches out because of all the activities would you rather have a game that has great graphics with sh*tty game play or a game with great game play and last generation graphics I personally favor fun over graphics but the choice is up to you.

I agree with DigDawg, saints row is alot more enjoyable and has alot more extraneous activities. I mean its true that the graphics are stuck in between last gen and next gen, but the engine hardly lags. GTA was so goddamn laggy due to poor optimisation that it destroyed what little enjoyment there was in the game. Also, the controls are alot nicer on SR2

Yah I agree SR2 abosolutely amazing! I love it cause its so darn fun. And ridicculus which makes a game fun. I think more it diverses from realism usually the funner it is. Kinda like World of Warcraft. Not realistic but very very fun.

I got both gta 4 and saints row 1 and 2 and Saints row is by far the better game. Better story and more things to do. But in all fairness to gta 4 it is possibly more life like with the internet and the phone not pausing.
