Saints Row 2 Game

Released in 2006 on Xbox 360, Saints Row was simply the first GTA-Like on next generation consoles. Rather nice, although technically tied to the pitch, the game Volition met a wide popular with fans of the genre. Since then, water has flowed under the bridge: a monster named GTA IV is released. Not scared, THQ finally launches Saints Row 2 on Xbox 360 and PS3. Mass communication, controversy, Saints Row 2 can really compete with GTA IV?



Saints Row 2 avoids the frontal impact with GTA IV

Welcome to Stillwater! Finally, should we say back in Stillwater. Volition developers have actually retained the same city, but after a few years. Now in the hands of a company called Ultor, Stillwater was substantially enlarged. The playground is now 40% greater than in the first opus, and comparable to Liberty City of GTA IV in terms of area. Thrown into prison to "end" of the first Saints Row, the player is finally a few years later, in jail again and again. The goal is first of all to escape back then the gang of Saints Row, completely decimated during your years behind bars. In essence, the principle remains the same, namely to take control of all areas to establish its supremacy over the city. This war of gangs revolves around a frame Scenarist background where there alternates between the stories of each of the Sons Of Saturday through devious of Ronin. Once the district acquired, you can also check businesses that are continually money. Also, the fabric Scenarist is more pronounced than in the first Saints Row, punctuated by numerous cinematic achievement whose frieze with the carpet.

Yes, we are obviously far from the film-look perfectly reproduced a GTA IV. Taking this aggressive approach angle, it is clear that Saints Row 2 is light years below GTA IV. Starting with its visual identity clearly absent, despite the diversity of neighborhoods. Simplistic textures, modeling rather bland decor, fog, Saints Row 2 is not a work of art! Rather, it shows quickly large technical shortcomings already observed during the previews. The engine of the game, fashioned, accuses many concerns with problems a clipping and fog that hides the horizon. Is still good effects of light at night and in indoor places that have received special care. Without wishing to caricature the situation, Saints Row 2 is similar to GTA: San Andreas high definition. The comparison with the title of Rockstar does not stop the contrary, it seems obvious to many levels. For Saints Row 2 judged solely on its technical deficiencies, and reduced to a pale copy of GTA IV would be a beautiful mistake.
