Great Game

Before you count my review off , Please let it be known that i picked this game up early from a neighborhood game store, that sells games as soon as they get Delivered.

When you start out, You get to Creater your character. There's caucasian, Asian, African American, And Hispanic. From there, you can edit facial features, such as eyes and facial hair, You can edit your hairstyle and color, and Edit muscle mass. The Character customization is amazing, blows San andreas out of the water. Saints row also features Superb Ragdoll physics, You can crash and send the passenger flying through the window. The mission types are Better than in grand theft auto. There Are numerous Side missions. There's Insurance Fraud, Where you throw yourself into oncoming traffic, There's hijacking where you steal a car and bring it back to a garage. There's Snatch, where you go and steal Hookers from other pimps and bring them back to your employing pimp. The controls are Great. You don't use auto aim like in other games of the type, you use third person controls similar to max payne. The Cars are pretty cool, and the damage modeling is A nice twist to what you see in driver, gta, etc.There are a lot of Car types, and you can also customize your car.The only downside is the cars Handle like in true crime, which isn't a good thing.Online play is Great as well, where teams of up to 12 can engage in numerous gametypes.

Overall, this game is the full package, and you would be doing yourself an injustice by not purchasing it.
