For starters, there is no lock on-targeting system, with the player having to free aim. The combat of Saints Row 2 is slightly different from that of other games in the genre.

Sons of Samedi - A gang that deals with heavy drug trafficking.

Led by Shogo Akuji, though his father seems to really have most of the power.

Ronin- A Japanese gang that deals with gambling and prostitution.

Brotherhood of Stilwater - A gang that largely deals with violent crimes and extortion.

The Saints were broken up after the events of the first game, and it's time to bring them back, stronger than ever.

3rd Street Saints - The player character's gang.

The player character must now deal with all of these changes and somehow restore the Row to its former glory.

Upon returning to Stilwater, the lead character notices that much has changed, from building renovations that have added more high-rise buildings and apartments, to the situations that his old friends and gang members have gotten into. The game opens with a reconstructive surgical procedure, allowing players to freely customize the look of the player character. The Boss, the player's character who was thought to be dead at the end of the first game after being betrayed by his own gang members, awakes from a coma induced by a bombed yacht but is horribly disfigured. Saints Row 2 picks up several years after the events of the first game. Saint's Row 2 boasts many of the same features of the first game such as diversions (known as 'Activities'), as well as a host of new features such as varying degrees of customization including complete character customization, vehicle customization, and crib customization, a revamped respect system, new vehicles including jets, speedboats, jet skis, helicopters, and monster trucks, new weapons including rocket launchers, shock paddles, stun guns, and satchel charges, co-op gameplay, and online multiplayer. A wide variety of vehicles can be used, including biplanes. Saint's Row 2 has the player work his way through a vastly improved Stilwater, a 150% larger version of the city with new areas including a prison island, a power plant, suburbs, and some underground sections, dispensing of rival gang members and otherwise unruly denizens to reclaim the turf and respect his once lofty gang has lost.

With many comparisons to the GTA series, it is no surprise that Volition have chosen to take the game in this direction to individualize it and perhaps gain an identity outside of all those comparisons. Saints Row 2 is a crime-themed, mission-based, open world game that looks to continue evolving the over-the-top gameplay formula of its predecessor. Overview Players can cause large amounts of chaos throughout Stilwater.
