2008 Gave Us The Greatest Game of All Time - Saints Row 2 (A Rare Masterpiece)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 20 ноя 2022
- Why even release more games when we reached the peak so long ago? Taking the formula of Saints Row 1 and perfecting it, Saints Row 2 is certainly the greatest "GTA Clone" that was ever produced. Calling it a clone of Grand Theft Auto isn't really fair, but that is its genre. Take a walk with me through this game in this retrospective, playthrough, generally hilarious adventure with "Playa" of the Saints.

number 3 when
Please play Saints Row 3 matt it’s the only other good one of the franchise
Sr3 is the best, i think is better than sr2
@@xDasVixo funnier maybe, better no.
Amazing thumbnail. This is my favorite video game of all time. We went from this to paying student loans and complaining about rent. I don't know what the developers were thinking.
Hey. Its so great to see you man. Such shame the reboot couldn't be like this
I CANT!! trust me i cant find a logic why would you bring up any of whats in da last half of your comment, as far as im concerned saints row is a duology, keep dat in mind
And L to you for promotin da deep silver asset flip after boycottin it in 2021 by doin a "sr 2 fan reacts" video and unwillin to keep your self from playin it
Sup bruv
Glad to see TheProfessional also enjoyed playing the OG Saints Row franchise you the man
Hi Professional. When you try racing?
Will you be our homie?
I love how in this game the NPCs are made via the character creator, so NPCs and the player character actually look like they belong to the same world.
Still a downgrade compared to sr1 character models
@@DuncanMaKockiner I’d say it’s a fair trade off honestly. I prefer saints row 2’s character/npc model system
It is great :3
It also means if you're good at the character creator you can make most of the characters
I really love how Saints Row 2 is a game about the protagonist becoming *the* villain. As you progress the character's deeds become more and more brutal and villainous and you put more innocent people into harm's way.
'becoming the villain' The Boss always was a sociopathic asshole
He Heisenbergd himself
Instead of the puckish rouge garbage they went for in SRR

@@YoungBasedChefBeezy To be fair, the whole "puckish rogue" thing has been established in 4

I feel like I keep getting unwillingly teleported to different time periods because Matto's beard is always at a different point of growth 🙃
Which growth level are you willing to accept?
@@smilespray considering that there aren't beards in missions, this feels like a trick question.
@@thegreatdnagaming6522 there also aren't mustaches in missions either so
It's called The Mattdela Effect.
He never had a beard in this timeline.
@@smilespray I honestly prefer the full beard, makes him look like the daddy of speedrunning
2008 was a good year for video games, Saints Row 2, GTA IV, Farcry 2, Fallout 3, Dead Space and much more
and all with that gritty dark filters, good times
@@joeJOE-zy7rw 100%
on my RUclips channel i do food reviews while I’m super high 💀
@@SevenHunnid okay?
Cod World At War
Saints row 2 was the pinnacle of the series. It’s so sad that they’ve never built on that foundation.
Carlos death is still a high point in gaming for me. Here you have a game that is a goddamn parody of GTA, who takes every chance to make a joke about litteraly anything, yet Carlos death scene is dead serious. No jokes, no funny effects, just the rain, Carlos half dead body, The Boss panicking and that somber feeling of knowing that there's no way to save him. Carlos, the guy who helped us bust out of prison, who we took under our wing and who was loyal to the end, was now lying there, in pain, and as a last sign of respect, The Boss gives Carlos a last goodbye, before ending his suffering.
Games today rarely get the emotional part right to begin with, yet this goddamn masterpiece nails it when it's in a genre that is quite litteraly the opposite of that.
It was still stupid though. He tries to break the chain with his hands, fails and then kills Carlos with a gun. He could've easily shot the chain and taken him to the hospital
@@mitty9109 no 9mm will be able to break through the chain, not even the weakest one from your hardware store.
@@AlineaEuros cap
@@mitty9109 Beside the fact that shooting the chain is a hell of a lot harder to do then you think, the fact you mention a hospital doesn't make sense. Both Carlos and The Boss is KNOWN criminals... Go to a hospital and Carlos goes to jail again, not to mention that The Boss would also be wanted. Thirdly, look at Carlos... He's been fucking dragged by a car on asphalt for at least 10-20 mins. The fact that he isn't dead yet is a miracle. There was no saving him as he only had a short time to live, while also in extreme pain. Carlos was already dead at that point.
@@ManUtdBoy13 bruh they take gat to a hospital in the same game, how can you say that them visiting a hospital is impossible?
This game just manages being funny and serious so well. The character death's actually feel like they matter. It's truly a masterpiece.
If you think that's a masterpiece you need to check what your standards r
@@tamakaramaena no his standards are quite high
@@tamakaramaena sure, we're only allowed to call games that show us intricate horse ball shrinkage "masterpieces". Got it.
@@Hammpedampe
Bro what?
I like your profile picture
Matto’s the only RUclipsr who can make me watch a whole 3 hour video in one sitting and make it feel like 40 minutes. Gawd damn great video
As long as it's edited I agree
I laughed more times than I anticipated from those random glitches and funny misshaps.
Matt. The only guy who can grow a beard in a 3 hour video. What a Chad
What's even more frightening is that with the beard he looks like a clone of my cousin, it's eerily close...
@@skillaxxx ok
@@blackbat908 I know it's very off topic, but it's really like seeing my cousin talking with this 'weird accent'.
@@skillaxxxok
I like how pierce isnt on the thumbnail, even matt doesn't give pierce any credit
Pierce is da definition of loyalty
Just like the intro of srtt: but who gives a fuck about pierce?
@@butterss1178 L
This is by far the best game in the series. It managed to balance both really funny humour and really serious moments. Every game after that lost the ability to juggle the two genres and just doubled down on being goofy.
It’s really sad to see what it has become when i saw gameplays/reviews of the new saints row I couldn’t believe how bad it was
@@benfidow Okay but that's not the same kind of decay.
That's just an abomination.
At least 3, 4, and GooH are still FUN. They lose the original identity still being good as gameplay experiences.
SR2022 is just... well, what is there to say that hasn't already been said better by somebody else?
@@superluigi6968 couldn’t have said it better i totally agree
As far as im concerned saints row is a duology
@@superluigi6968 yea still bein good gameplay experiences, like da bullet spongy enemies, da lifeless small ugly city, da trash activities, da lack of multiplayer, da worsened coop, da limited customizations! Absolute fun of an experience 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😃 🤡
I have to wonder if the "sneak into the casino, cause a blackout, rob them" thing was a dig at Rockstar since that is basically the plot of the heist in San Andreas that came out a couple years before this game.
Now that i think about it.... You could be right! They also robbed a casino in SA.
Also SR2 Commercial takes a dig at GTA IV. "Would you rather, play bowling, or shoot sewage at pedestrians?"
Which would be a great jab considering that stealth plan didn't even work out thanks to Zero & Berkley, lol, & to think CJ originally wanted to just go in with no planning whatsoever. Probably would've still worked out lol
I remembered being really excited for the continuation of the Ultor storyline with Dex as the main villian, shame they never continued that
2:36:13 Those Heavy Weapons Guys were very well edited

So sorry you had to witness the sr reboot,must've hurt like hell
I feel like the majority of this video is him dual wielding the uzis or him on fire. I love it
3:00:12 this'll be unironically a more satisfying ending to the Dex story arc then the current ending
1:42:04 I've never laughed harder at a side by side comparison before in my life
2:36:13 Wasn't expecting the Pootis Engage heavies to be in this 3 hour video but good surprises come out of anywhere.
I remember booting up my old 360 and playing this game. Never a dull moment, Matto! Keep up the hard work
41:27 lmaooo as an italian i totaly didn't expect that🤣🤣
Love the Lambda Core at 1:07:41, like that level in Half Life 2 when you're in an airboat pursued by a combine helicopter, Martin clearly had fun while editing this
:)
I absolutely LOVE this style of videos, playing a whole random game in one long video, I hope these never stop
the amount of yakuza references in this video just makes me very happy. thank you editor
I haven't finished the video yet, but the sub story music at 23:24 caught me off guard lol, is there any more Yakuza references throughout the video? Thanks
@@Ivan_Hoh yeah lmao, a bunch of music from yakuza is used in this video, and they show a clip pf majima later on
:)
You're welcome
Editor was a W for the Yakuza references but an L for the "I sexually identify as an attack helicopter" joke
This editing in this is just pure gold. The part where he got destroyed by a box was my favourite part, haha. 2:23:30
Matto went from clean shaved to a full beard during this playthrough.
unbelievable matto went from clean shaven to a full beard in 3 hours. This is unprecedented beard growth!
This game is absolutely amazing and I’d love to experience it again for the first time! Very much worth the millions of requests haha
True
Neat name :D
One of da best not just open world games but video games of all time, and da most underrated video game of all time
Well personally I forgot about most of the missions so I'm sort of experiencing it for the first time again watching this
Wish I could play it but the pc port sucks
Matt throughout the whole video just realises that he’s the bad guy
41:22 The voice you hear is speaking italian and it’s saying: “help me please, i’m a character in a game and I don’t know how to get out of it”.
P.S. I’m italian and that caught me completely off guard. I never thought i’d hear spoken italian in a Matt’s video!
It may have taken close to 10,000 hours to come out, but I know its gonna be worth it.
I'm so happy the knife joke (4:21) was referenced on the 250m chaos video lol
The background music selection though, Yakuza 0 themes playing during the ronin segment is just pure gold.
3:19 that made me laugh harder than it should have. Props to whoever edited that in.
The yakuza background music at random points literally suits this so much
Love how Matt’s beard just progresses to grow as the video goes on lmao
Matt’s reactions when the Boss kills or hurts someone extremely brutally is just so funny to me. Like sure, it’s understandable the first time but by Maero, he should of caught on that the Playa has gone completely insane.
Sr2 is one of those rare gems. It leaned into the silly yet still managed to have some serious hard hitting moments. Definitely well written.
I haven't even started the video but I already know it's going to be great. Saints Row 2 is easily my favourite Saints Row and is an absolute classic that deserves more respect, especially after the deboot that we got this year
Edit: Every time you make a joke about the British I feel betrayed
Edit 2: 2:36:13 Ceno reference that's pretty based
Edit 3: I would have added more edits for stuff throughout the video but I'd be here for ages if I did that this video was very good thank you Matto, hopefully 3 and 4 won't leave you in perpetual disappointment like it has for a lot of us
Yes very true
whats the hate with 3? i genuinely enjoyed it as much as 1 and 2
Matto this game is absolutely amazing and it’s an amazing experience to see you playing. The millions of requests really got you. Chatto was impressed lol.
I’m glad you chose to play this Matt. This game is a classic. Man I miss the good old days when games actually had good endings.
@user-od6zj7ws7f I’ve never even heard of that game.
Do you want me to recommend you a list of recent games with good endings?
@ChrisBarnett222 it’s a 3rd person open world game about forming a resistance on mars to free mars from earths colonial control. The game features physics destruction. Each building can pretty much be destroyed in a realistic manner. Very cool game tbh
I’M SO GLAD THAT MATTO ENJOYED THIS GAME AS MUCH AS THE REST OF US. its a damn shame how poorly the newest saints row was written, developed, and half-assed. but its great that we always have this absolute gem to fall back on, and being able to see other people pick it up for the first time and actively watch the smile grow on their face is beyond. heart warming !!! love the content Matto! keep doin your thing brothah!
The amount of comedic timing of the game, editing as well as mattos own made this my most favourite darkviper video by far, great job matto. Keep it up 👍
40:18 Adding the jeep's boost sound from HL2 was a nice subtle touch
I distinctly remember the helicopters in this game being really, REALLY easy to fly.
Yea, Saints row helicopters control like a dream. Unlike GTA helicopters which feel like flying a brick. Especially on keyboard and mouse
I remember getting home from school in like 3rd grade and playing this everyday for hours. I just graduated a few months ago and kinda forgot about the game, watching this is like a crazy nostalgia trip.
Please do more gameplay series like this this sorta content is really growing the channel
I love the way Matto and his editors edit his playthroughs. They take out all the unnecessary parts, leave us with just the core gameplay, and for 99.9% it's presented as is, but then from time to time they insert memes that are actually funny.
As a person who doesn't have time to watch the entire streams or vods, 10/10 *chef's kiss*
Even though it took me weeks to watch this video whole cause of the length, it's so perfect, I don't regret a second of watching it
8:36 Matto having traumatizing flashbacks:
when "the more you know" came on to screen i just lost it lmao 55:20
this game's cutscenes are so guuut it even has a function to replay them
These long videos really make the day easier. One video and your halfway through your shift.
Bro what kind of job you do that allows you to watch RUclips (I want it too)
Yesssss. I love SR2. Been waiting for this for a while
Hey Matt thank you for completely coincidental upload,this week has been tough, being the first thanksgiving alone since my parents passing and I’ve been excited for this since the Saints Row 1 Video. Genuinely got me to feel quite better for the first time in awhile. Anyway absolute banger, big fan of these videos. 👍🏻
I'm just really happy that you liked it and it was a pleasure watching you play through it, it was almost like playing myself for the first time, back in 2009.
hell yea, currently replaying it for the gazillionth time as its one of my favourite games of all time. Thanks for playing this, lookin forward to watchin.
Having 3 hours of edited content is just surreal to me I don't think I know any other content creator that does this. Good work, it's fun.
I also really appreciate how well edited this is, thanks. Most of these kind of stream compilations, especially ones that are this long, are lucky to have any kind of editing at all, awesome work
1:34:46 matt is kinda right with the resurgence of vertical video, and this almost was uploaded in 2023 that's kinda funny
I like the customization, the wanted level system, the fun cheats, the environmental NPCs, lots of interiors, & ect.
My favorite thing about the saints series is that the side missions actually have a purpose. It's not just to earn money but to unlock stuff, San Andreas did it too but was quickly dropped for the next game.
that one joke at 41:25 really did a number on me. i'm italian and the 4th wall break was real strong
I find myself coming back to this video probably more than any other of matto's content. Not only is it a game i played as a child, it's just really nice to see matto having such a good time with it.
If you find this comment in the mass is other comments matto, I hope you are having a damn good day, and thank you for providing so much entertainment through some dark spots for me. ❤
Seeing this after Volition was just aglomerated into Gearbox makes me kind of nostalgic. I know Volition was only a shadow of its former self, exhibit A: the latest Saints Row game, but still, makes me miss when the industry could release these sorts of games. We definitely will not see another game with that tone in the AAA gaming industry for a long time I'm afraid.
I'm so glad you enjoyed this game so much, one of my favourite games of all time being called a masterpiece by one of my favourite creators of all time is like a dream come true
32:00 SHIN MEGAMI TENSEI IV BOSS MUSIC!!! I didn't know matto was into jrpgs
the Yakuza OST usage in this video is mmh chefs kiss, whoever edited this, i pledge my life to you good sir!
so happy this is finally out, SR2 is up there in my top 5 games of all time, i will enjoy the next 3 hours of my life
54:46 He said "It's not like this is over yet".
Learning Japanese pays off again, i guess.
The last video with the outro; the end of an era
3:03:34 that FUUUUCK has so much passion lul
Thank you so much Matto for uploading edited highlight videos in such lenght. i cant imagine the work that goes into such a video.
I really enjoy that matto put in the funny Yakuza substory music
I been waiting for u to put it on RUclips thank u 😩🙏🏼
oh wow, didnt expect the SMT music
I’m so happy he’s playing this game, I’ve got such a deep connection to it through my childhood. This and SR3.
editing for a 3 hour video is absolutely mental, great work matt holy shit
Matt has a team of editors he links in the description
@@mitty9109 still a mental amount of editing
@@mitty9109 no cap Sherlock

@@mitty9109 you think people don’t know that?
22:31 Love the way Unrest is used at this moment.
Amazing editing. I am watching this in the break between calls at my job. Works awesome,
Saints row 2 was my childhood I’m glad you enjoyed the experience playing it Matto!
The editing in this is brilliant 😭😂 keep the work up Matto!
I was literally just rewatching your first saints row playthrough mere hours ago, yearning for the 2nd saints row vid. I have summoned thee.
Dude saints row 2 playing with my cousins having fun good ass times man
*Matt, Doesn't look at the button prompts to see what buttons do what*
Also Matt: I hate controllers
I love how many times the violent metal bar falling sound was used
Fun fact matto the guy who made the mod to fix the PC port was working with volition before he died (iirc before they got sold to Koch media cause the new volition is not the og saints row team)
So can we get a RIP IdolNinja?
Been waiting so long for this one, last vid was such a banger
Peak of the Saints Row series by a mile. All downhill after this I'm afraid.
This is a wonderfully edited video, I expected this to be a VOD or something or like one of those This Is what YOu missed Episodes but I was wrong, so far just 6 minutes into the video I am very impressed, and im never dissapointed by your stuff matthew
I was so confused why Eric from the DLC sounded so familiar, it turns out he's voiced by the same guy who voices Soldier 76 in Overwatch, Nikolai in COD: Zombies and Drax in the Guardians of the Galaxy game.
Fred Tatasciore his name is, he voices tons of different characters
16:50 "I just met you and this is crazy"...and what? Give him your number and call him maybe? 🎶
Didn't expect the SMTIV music during Trail Blazing
I'll be hyped to see the day Matto plays the Yakuza games with this much background music from the franchise
Letsss goooo I have been waiting for this
I finally finished this video and I must say it’s one of the best on the channel. I decided to play the game for the first time alongside watching this and it made the video extra funny seeing you struggle in the same places as I did and beeing as surprised by some of the story elements. Just wanted to thank you for making such great content and I wish you all the best :)
