Saints Row Review

So far, next-gen console gamers have been denied that most delightful of gaming recipes, a true crime-em-up. That is all about to change, now that Saints Row has arrived.

I spent the last week working my way through this massive game, with one question burned into my mind – is this game better than GTA? The answer, as you will come to see, is that the question could probably be better worded to: is this game meant to be GTA? Either way it’s nowhere near as poor as many feared, in fact, despite it being a bare faced "I-don’t-care-who-knows-it" imitation, it is actually quite fun.

An inferior imitation of a great game doesn’t necessarily mean you have a bad game, and in with Saints Row that is certainly not the case. It’s a fun, hectic experience that provides a lengthy amount of gaming fun-time. The game isn’t unique, but then neither are a lot of things that we know and love.
