Players can play as who they want, how they want, and with whomever they want in this sequel to the much acclaimed and tremendously successful Saints Row," reads an official pitch of the game. " Saints Row 2 brings true freedom to open-world gaming. You can't beat that, though the first game does come close with its soundtrack. It also has way more bangers than other games, including So Sick by Ne-Yo, I Luv It by Young Jeezy, and Me & U by Cassie. The game only garnered an 83 on Metacritic when it was released, which is a very respectable score, however, it's seemingly remembered even more fondly than this score suggests.

The second installment in the series, much like the first installment (which is also on sale for $1.49), is notably less over-the-top and more entrenched in being a parody of gang culture than follow-up entries.


Released in 2008 by developer Volition and publisher THQ Nordic, Saints Row 2 is often a Saints Row fan's favorite Saints Row game.
