At least the hospital didn't take my guns away. Well it immediately flipped over and exploded, so I think I'll pass on planes for now (mostly because I can't be bothered to drive all the way back down to the airport again). (Click the images to view them at twice the resolution.) It definitely seems like either the Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3 version may be a better choice for this one, because damn.įortunately I've been assured that the fast forward issue is a fixable problem, thanks to IdolNinja's Saints Row 2 Powertools Mod, so I'm hopeful it'll hammer this into a more acceptable shape for me. That is a pretty amazing bug all on its own, but the game apparently also has problems with prefetching memory that can cause frame rate issues even on powerful PCs.

Windows 8 users are apparently safe from this, in a rare case of a new operating system actually FIXING an old game. Well not without a bit of work anyway, as this got a famously terrible port that can run in fast forward if you're playing it on a Windows 7 machine with a CPU clock speed different to the Xbox 360's processor.

It's Volition's 2008 crime 'em up sequel Saints Row 2!īut is such a game even playable anymore to someone who has recently leapt between skyscrapers shooting fireballs out of their hands in Saints Row 4? If you're a PC owner, then the answer is likely to be. But it's an earlier one without sci-fi jet fighters, spaceships or super powers. Surprise! Today I'm playing a second story-driven sandbox shooter starting with an 'S', and it's another one of those Saints Row games.
