Hello I just joined the the escapist website and thought this would be great way to start posting so this is about verdict on two most known open world 3-rd person shooters or sand box but the genre is normaly refered to "momma it be like one of thoose GTA games but on mars"If you don't really know what i was reffering to get the f**k out of my topic.((The new red faction))


GTA IV

So the amount of hype surronding GTA IV was emmence you would hear or see the game everywhere and was after a while annoying or if you were like any other mindless simpleton brought the hollo promises of it. When it was realeased everyone got or at least tried to.

It was not a bad or terrible game it was just that lacked what other GTA games had like just the over the top insanity they all shared, that was fun so I was hoping for it to be like espacilly online but that was not the case. The single player became the same teidous mission over and over again but some would argue what about saints row that was pretty much the same. I would say no and even if they were theres enough activities and diversion to keep you ocupied or just make popular character everyone knows or just making blinged out ride it was fun.

So GTA IV not terrible but not the perfect game like it was said to be.

SAINT ROW 2

Now i prefer this game because it captured what games like this should..........F**king up everything up in stylish and for filling way and like I said it was fun with story and if you ever got bored of the story missions then you can just go off and play some of extra activities or diversions or find some over time consuming thing. Which you probly will and how could anyone forget the epic customization. Cars, you, cribs,your gang everything it was excellent and just superb I had never seen so much choice outside of an MMO or table top game it was fantastic.

The bad thing about saints row 2 the online was not as good as the first why get rid of protect the pimp seriously.


Now so the final verdict to me it depends do you want gritty realistic game, GTA IV .
If you want over the top mayhem and funny moments Saints row 2 is where it is at.
Me its saints row.

Thank you for reading Im Cameron.
Pleas post and vote.
Keep gaming guys

Ouch. Where did you learn to type?

Ok, first: It's GTA IV. V isn't yet out.
You've compared both games, basically said GTAIV sucks and SR2 is amazing, and then seemed to avoid being yelled at by saying "Well, really it's down to the player....".

And finally. Your spelling. Fix it.

Spelling. For gods sake spelling. Also like others said, its IV. Actually talking about the games themselves might be a good place to start next time.

Theres so many things wrong I can't even be bothered to usually go on my long-winded list of suggestions.

. Fix your spellings
. Try to view thr games from a neutral standpoint
. Don't compare games - its a review
. Detail is important
. Don't post another one until you have read established posters reviews and learnt from them - this forum has standards.

Saints Row was just plain dumb fun, but GTA IV is just better and more memorable.

You didn't really compare them. You had literally six sentences about GTA IV, and five about Saints Row 2.
Please, next time you event ry to compare two games, actually talk about them. The good, the bad, the game play, the atmosphere. Actually put effort into it.
This "comparison", gets an F. Or, if you're in college, and 1.0.
Pretty much what he said, also please get the facts right:
GTA IV not V, and they are sandbox style games not third person shooters.

Yeah, as memorable as a gray blob of horrible controls.
Children no flame wars. I own both and play both frequently. I play Saints row when I want to fuck the whole world up while naked, and I play Gta 4 when I want to have an intense Cop chase with my friends then Escape and do it again and again. There are both Sanbox crime games and thats it. They are very different and comparing them doesn't seem fair.

Well, you're in a third-person perspective and you shoot things, so by definition, they are third-person shooters.
If you want to get technical then yes. But the genre they are most often classified as are sandbox

Sandbox is a quality of a game, not a genre.
Then what would you classify this as?

Okay the one line that is in the game thats funny. The rest washed up satire from other gta games and if niko or roman are saying something its most likly this "Lets go bowling cousin"."Okay chicken we shall eat cousin "."That doesn't fit in there cousin".
Oh yeah and all the fun I had in GTA IV I had driving one pretentious twat after another to bowling or see a show yeah that gameplay was AMAZINGLY shit.
