Nothing like the original 2 Saints Row's. I don't hate the new ones, but I still prefer the first 2 for their grittiness as opposed to the more cartoonish 3 and 4.

I love how in 2 when you hear the tapes between Dex and Troy, Dex admitted he knew Troy was a cop, something about his demeanour and "shitty haircut" and I think he mentioned Troy always being nosy, I might be wrong about that. You can probably find a RUclips clip on that. Looking back at Troy's scenes, yeah, it was pretty obvious he was sketchy.
@@edwinvsgio9212 Yeah it is. But I doubt it'll feel the same as the original 1 and 2, with the violence and grittiness, seen as it doesn't look like that sort of game
Fact about the mission Canonized: If you manage to take down all the enemies, you get a cutscene with Dex comparing you to Gat, and Johnny saying it took him half the time.
Watching this it's kinda depressing how far this series has fallen. The story here is really dramatic and well written and the bit of comedy relief that's sprinkled in is actually funny.
@@gjtrue also, the op didn't mean anything about how PC it's been. Tbh, this story is pretty PC. Different racial backgrounds taking leads, men and women in top positions. It might not be heavy with LGBTQ stuff, but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ hey, like, it's not as far as I remember seeing making a mockery of it.
@@FF18Cloud you can have a little absurdity as long as the story doesn't suffer from it. You can't tell me SR3s story is more engaging and exciting than SR1s. Hell, SR3 barely even has a story.
Saints row is a parody of an already farcical game. The video game equivalent of Scary Movie to Scream if you will. Any story in it is an added bonus and should not be expected. All that should expected it comedic nonsense to parody Grand Theft Auto.
This game has such friggin amazing sound design, especially in the cutscenes. Everything just has the right feel to it, and there's not really any moments where things are awkwardly silent when they shouldn't be, or feel like there's missing sounds. Trust me, a LOT of games get that wrong all the time, even today. In cutscene gunfights you can hear the whizzing of bullets and the folley of things blowing up and falling, and even the sound of vehicle engines matches where the viewer would be located in the scene if it was in reality. Top tier stuff
Honestly, if Joseph was coerced into separating with his uncle, there could've been a parlay with Joseph and Julius so they could possibly join forces. Besides being knuckle heads, Rollerz aren't so bad.

Julius was such an epically dramatic character. It's a shame they ended his timeline. Ittd be interesting to see him come back as a rival gang boss or something
@@Death_true He was a great nuanced character. I loved that he ended up being the one to take down the Kings with the Saints. He knew when and when not to fight, and moreover who to fight against
more like dex. dex was the "smart one". of all the saints he had the most potential to become a leader, however he seemed to lack charisma king or julius had, which could be a problem in leading any kind of group. his loayalty was questioned by npcs even.
@@velDANTe I agree ben king was a depressingly cut character and frankly ben and julius are just way more iconic then dex was to be fair though I feel dex could have been really dope if given the chance BUT he wasn't. kinda like ling, I forgot she even exist until i rewatched the series.. sad tho, she was a bad bitch.
Everything about this game was legendary. If you had an Xbox 360 in 2006 you played this gem. What first seemed to be a GTA Clone proved to be so much more, remember it being crazy you could customize your own guy and the voice acting and story were top notch. I’m still playing this game when the Saints and Gat ruled Stillwater. ⚜️
The intro cutscene is literally perfect. Watches guy is the greatest fictional character of all time, Levar is a close second. And pretty much every scene in the Vice Kings storyline is amazing (especially 38:49). This game is just really well written. It has characters that actually feel human, (SR2 is even better at this though) Dex, Johnny, Benjamin “Motherfuckin’” King, and Julius are all extremely well written and the great voice acting really accentuates that. Too bad Dex never got a real conclusion to his story (Gat out of Hell doesn’t count).
All Playa’s dialogue. “Hope you don’t mind hepatitis” 51:38 “Bullshit, that’s last year’s fall collection” 1:22:13 “I got ran over by a motherfuckin’ truck, what you think?” 1:43:27 “Yo can you speed this shit up? I wanna go to Freckle Bitch’s...” 1:52:15
RIP Michael Clarke Duncan. Not only a good man, but also a good playa. That's #1. And #2, it's all about war between recording artists, churchgoers, street racers, and drug dealers.
@@ahumbledude757 ,If you play the first game as a male and after the explosion the player wakes up as a female for the option of gender change in the second game in case you want to play as one,is there a way to explain this magic? 😂
Super Sexy Tractor it was an Xbox 360 exclusive sr2 onwards is multi platform there were plans for multi platform that never got finished like a cancelled Wii and ps3 port just thought I’d clear that up
Saints Row 1 & 2 Story Lines the best ever. Had a deep story like The Getaway, Mafia Games, True Crime LA and NY, Sleeping Dogs, GTA San Andreas/Vice City/GTA 4/Lost and Damned, 25 to Life, 50 Cent Bulletproof, etc. These graphics still fire 🔥 as hell.
The third game became too much of a parody of itself. Even when they killed off Gat and tried to make it serious and emotional it felt flat and meaningless. The only one who ever struggles with the loss of Johnny is Shaundi; and the Boss has no tough time dealing with it, and no characterization other than “sociopathic murder machine”. The plot is also just a worse version of SR1
The thing about this game is that you deal with the leader and second-in-command and an enforcer, but its different for each one. One you snipe the original leader then deal with the other 2 for the majority of the time. Another the leader gets thrown out. The final one.... that's a weird way to organize crime but its the enforcer you take care of last.
First two games were not just amazing gameplay-wise, but were also brilliant criminal dramas, remind me of Guy Ritchie's movies - the stories of money and power that take such a turn in their development where mentioned things stop having any value in the face of betrayal and violence, and where things that really matter start to seem more apparent. The humor, the dialogues and the overall story seem much more mature. After these many years I see saints row 3 as a major letdown, where nihilism, lack of any reason, and "haha look at him fart" jokes became the drawing cards.
they also were really underrated multiplayer-wise, that aspect was just removed in Saints Row 3 besides the co-op. I think SR 3 was fun as a standalone one and done spin-off, but as a sequel it was awful.
Never seen a game movie of the first Saints Row where the Playa kicks ass while being canonized. Troy mentions how Gat was the only other Saint to do so and Gat replies it only took him half the time.
This game may have been your generic bloods vs crips from the gangs looks and concepts but hey it worked and got the job done and for a debut entry to the series is probably the best debut game entry in the history of open world games
Had to come here after watching the reboot trailer. I’m a huge Saints fan. I haven’t played 1 but 2 is my personal favorite. Although I’m not that big of a fan of 3, I love 4. It no longer had the grit or grounded reality of Saints 1 and 2 but to me, it still had the soul. The humor, references, and character writing were all just top notch and if it weren’t a mainline Saints, a spinoff, I think people would be more fond of Saints 4. After seeing the reboot trailer, it doesn’t have even the positives of Saints 4 to be worthy of the Saints name. Non of the characters from the OG games, non of the witty and dark humor, non of the coolness and badassery of characters like Johnny Gat, The Boss, etc. A Watch Dogs 2 clone with a Fortnite skin. But even Watch Dogs 2 is less cringe than the reboot is looking. Here’s to at least hoping the gameplay, mission structure, customization, and side activities can hold the game up to at least be an enjoyable, but bastardized unworthy successor to the Saints name.
I have not played this in so long. SR1 does not get the respect it deserves. SR2 improved on nearly aspect but SR1 is so great. I don’t mind that the series went a little more comical. SR 1 & 2 may always be the best (imo anyways) but SR has it’s own identity now I think instead of just being labeled a “GTA clone”. I do agree that SR4 went way over the top but it’s still a fun game to just turn your brain off and do stupid stuff. SR3 I think was good balance of still being like GTA a little bit just more comical and hilarious. Let’s hope the next SR game goes back to being slightly more serious but without losing the humor
These storylines with todays graphics can really bring SOOO MUCH revenue back to gaming But online battle royales have ruined storylines 😞 !! This game deserves a remaster
nothing better than the Original... i love Saints Row 1... it has so much Character... the Way everyone talks and Acts is so Awesome and it drags you into the story... the newer Saints rows are not anymore the Hard Fights on the Streets... i love that King and Julius sound so god damn good and with so much power in the Voice
I Love How The Characters Actually Aknolage The Players Silence Unlike Almost All Games That Have A Silent Protagonist Or In Playa's Case A "Almost Quiet" Protagonist.
Holy shit I forgot how different the first game was compared to The Third and 4th one. Hot damn, no wonder the 5th game is already getting hate before it came out.
This game was amazing. I can replay this over and over. The only thing is filling up the respect bar. The activities are a little bit of a chore but that only because I just couldn’t wait to play the story missions. Glad they fixed it in the second one. Saints 4 life!!!✊🏼
Man, remember going to game stop in 2009 to ask what would be a fun open world game, and they told me if i like gta i Should get Saints Row, so the i ended up buying both 1 and 2.
Everybody is on the fence about both 3 and 4. But really I started playing Saints Row to get away from GTA taking it's self too seriously once 4 came out. Saints Row fixed that for me. Sure 2 is serious compared to 3 and 4. But all games have charm for me. I'll buy SR games day one, GTA if the price ever drops. Saints for life! ⚜️
Same here. If I wanted serious stuff, GTA is my main game but I absolutely love SR3 and SR4 because of the fun in them. 1&2...not so much. They're good, just not my cup of tea. I've played both 3&4 recently even after all these years because I still love how fun they are and how it makes me laugh when something serious is supposed to be going on. Other than the plot being changed and stuff, the game was solid, I never had glitches or weird stuff going on...so I think people are a bit too harsh with the last two installments. I've never played a funnier game!
Nothing like the original 2 Saints Row's. I don't hate the new ones, but I still prefer the first 2 for their grittiness as opposed to the more cartoonish 3 and 4.

You know why you're all here... 😌
Hell yeah! History of the Saints, the true ones
SR1 and sr2 are just purely amazing and I can play all day even in 2022 wish series could have stayed the same
Gotta give props to Kenn Michael to be the only VA to voice the main character in all 4 main SR entries (as male voice 2 in the following games).
What is it with Keith David and writers giving him the line "We need all the help we can get"
Now THESE are gangsters
The Care Bears are more "gangster" than *those* cringeworthy hipster rejects...
Even old Johnny was still the best character in the old games.
I Love How The Characters Actually Aknolage The Players Silence Unlike Almost All Games That Have A Silent Protagonist Or In Playa's Case A "Almost Quiet" Protagonist.
Son you canonized the word acknowledge
@@alexishallo2423 I Wrote The Comment On My Slow Phone And It Was 2AM My Mind Was Slow.
yea i prefer a game to acknowledge the silence rather than "pretend" they said something
"Hope you don't mind hepatitis."
Rest in good peace, Michael Clarke Duncan. Such a legendary man and voice. Rest well, sir.
It's hard to believe the star power brought in to voice the characters.
" I build, I watched, and now I'm acting." That scene is my favorite in the game.
This game and the second one was way better than saints row 3 and 4 what did this game become to man
POV: you just realized dat the only time playa talks is when he's groaning from bullet wounds
I quote this series so much on a day to day basis
It always kills me that in 1:15 Rollerz comin and gunnin Carnales and shouting "Fuckeerrzz!!" xDD
That shit was funny.
Holy shit I forgot how different the first game was compared to The Third and 4th one. Hot damn, no wonder the 5th game is already getting hate before it came out.
It’s a reboot not saints 5
@@base21 lamo nigga the name is saints row, should of never kept the name
Its been so long since I've played saints row I, it all seems new all over again. Nice upload...
Bring back the saints row1 series back
This game lowkey got some starpower in the cast😂
This franchise is a primary example of how fast and furious came too lol
25:57 One of the best SR moments overall 👏🏻💪🏻💯
They should remake this instead of rebooting tbh
I never got a chance to play this .. This is so good
Friend: "So why do you have that purple bandana again?"
Me: -Sooo... some idiots spray painted the wall and....
We just cleaning it up
*gunfight ensues*
1:14:44 "I'm Miss Jenny from the blo..AHH!"
This and Sr2 needs a remake with today's graphics. I guarantee both games will go out of stock within the first 3 days of release
So 2 leads off when the boat gets blown up leaving you in the hospital ?
Yea ya character was setup but survived the explosion
"Blood in, Blood Out"
Not a single scratch on him.
Blood In, Blood Out.
Sangre por sangre
Welcome To The 3rd Street Saints
This game was amazing. I can replay this over and over. The only thing is filling up the respect bar. The activities are a little bit of a chore but that only because I just couldn’t wait to play the story missions. Glad they fixed it in the second one. Saints 4 life!!!✊🏼
Watching this man whip out the pistol is the best and funniest thing to see for almost 2 hours, man I love your videos, keep up the great work😂❤️
Man, remember going to game stop in 2009 to ask what would be a fun open world game, and they told me if i like gta i Should get Saints Row, so the i ended up buying both 1 and 2.
The reason Playa doesn't talk much is because he's nervous.
Everybody is on the fence about both 3 and 4. But really I started playing Saints Row to get away from GTA taking it's self too seriously once 4 came out. Saints Row fixed that for me. Sure 2 is serious compared to 3 and 4. But all games have charm for me. I'll buy SR games day one, GTA if the price ever drops.
Saints for life! ⚜️
Same here. If I wanted serious stuff, GTA is my main game but I absolutely love SR3 and SR4 because of the fun in them.
1&2...not so much. They're good, just not my cup of tea.
I've played both 3&4 recently even after all these years because I still love how fun they are and how it makes me laugh when something serious is supposed to be going on.
Other than the plot being changed and stuff, the game was solid, I never had glitches or weird stuff going on...so I think people are a bit too harsh with the last two installments. I've never played a funnier game!
They really need to remaster SR 1 and 2
