    I bought the game. I am really looking forward to playing it. I enjoyed the demo so I expect that I am going to like Saints Row.

    I bought it Saturday and I am officially hooked, with the online element it really adds to the game IMO. I actually think they did a pretty good job with it and trying to make an online enviroment that promotes working together to win. I have randomly been doing team ranked games and the guys who work togethers teams are way better and it means $45 vs $15 when you win.

    I bought the game, I really like the story. Just like GTA but that is a good thing and with next gen graphics and better story.

    how do I date a hooker? :)

    I think this is a pretty good game. My only problems I have with it is that its sometimes hard to tell if your getting shot or not. It's also not easy to switch to other weapons on the fly during a battle. Good story, good graphics, and alot of fun to play though.

    I think the game is really good. It's a blatant rip-off but you can't get mad when a game is this good. I still say GTA will come back with an even better game and I can't wait.

    But just think how good Volition's next version will be =P~ . It was a rip-off, but it also paid-off. This title should make them quite a bit of money so they'll be able to build on this. Just this month they've hired their 150th employee 8)

    I would expect next time that they'll have many innovations instead of a straight copy of GTA. I'm excited. I never bought a GTA game, but for some reason this one intereste me enough to buy it. Saint's Row is the first open-ended game to feature online modes. The co-op modes are pretty hard (for me at least) but they are almost like a fun Live Arcade game.

    I think they built and designed a nice game which only gives me hope for the sequel. Their timing was perfect as it fills the void before the next GTA. It's also a great thing for the 360 as well since as of right now, it's exclusive to that platform.

    I agree that the next GTA should put this game to shame. But we still have to wait a year for that one and for now, this one is pretty darn good ;)

    There are rumors of a patch coming soon. Hopefully that will help the online lag and glitching. When you do get a glitch/lag free game going online it is very fun and the offline game is deep enough that you will probably not do a lot of it with just a rental.
