The up side: amusing, over-the-top action. The down side: AI, visuals, story, and dialogue. ActionTrip reviews Saints Row 2.
AtomicGamer, in reviewing Saints Row 2, just thinks "it's nice to not have your mother-in-law calling you up to ask you what this whole "Grand Theft" thing is about on the news."
Probably the most meandering amount of storytelling I've ever read in a keyboard review -- which I find quite amusing in TheTechLounge's coverage of the Das Keyboard.
