Saints Row is quite funny. Its hardly needs an explanation on why it is funny, simply play the game for 5 minutes. What you will see, among the G-strings and krunked out teeth, are Hot dog suits chase after ninjas with chainsaws and mini-guns, and see porn stars play microbiologists (Seriously)
But despite being a comedy in the same vein as "Meet the Spartans", it creates a interesting phenomena, it proves to be SO ridiculous, that one forgets its ridiculous, and simply enjoys it. Yes many people bill Saints Row as a "GTA clone." But honestly, its revolutionary in its GPS style navigation system, which had been carried over into GTA IV. Funny old world isnt it?
The recent DLC released for Saints Row 2 includes the afformentioned Microbiologist/Porn Star Tera Patrick and her quest to undo the innerworkings of Ultor. The downloadable content is actually satisfying, as it includes new outfits such as the swat and police outfit which I sought after, AND cool looking shirts that don't look like muscle shirts. All in all, even though I woulden't go to the Row if i knew where it was, its still fun to control.
