Yup Saints Row 2's online is co-op only.

I played GTA 4, bored the hell out of me.

Saints Row 2 is easily the better game, gameplay wise.8)

I rented SR2 this week and it just blew me away; the game is basically the next gen GTA San Andreas in terms of content and most importanly-- fun. The visuals are definetly not the best but when I discovered that the game has a zombie mode plus some insanely fun side missions, the graphics were overshadowed by this. Throw in co-op and you have a winner. Anyone else share the same feelings as I do?

Agreed. I love saints row 2. On my second play through and I hope to get all the DLC someday.

Although SR2 was a helluva lotta fun, it's what hazelnutman said. If you seriously compare, the depth GTA 4 has over SR2, it's frightening.

I disagree. SR2 actually has much more depth in the gameplay than GTA4. Sure, GTA4 had much more production value and therefore is more asthetically pleasing, but it doesn't match to SR2's depth in all facets of gameplay. There are many things to unlock and it even has some RPGish elements. In GTA4, you didn't really feel like you were getting stronger or anything. Also, the pigeon hunt was probably the worst idea for an extra in all of gaming

I own both games. Bought GTAIV at launch with that special edition bit. Had high hopes for it. Loved the first 30 minutes of game play. Then that damn phone kept ringing...

Picked up SR 2 not too long ago on the cheap. Recommended from many for those who thought GTA was nice but missing some "fun". Fell in love with SR 2! IT is (game play wise) what GTA would have been had they let the developers take their initial ideas and run with em.

IMHO I would say that SR2 does a better job of sand box carnage than GTAIV. But that is just using my own scale. They are games and games are entertainment. That is why we play "retro" games. they may not have the best graphics but they are still fun to play!

It has all those fun little extras but IMO, GTA IVs gunplay and driving is superior in every way to SR2 and the way i see it, most of your time in those games is spent shooting and driving so that negates all the fun activities of Saints.

Everyone has different tastes I suppose, GTA IV in my opinion is much better, better online, better graphics, better controls, better story,a cover system. Its much less in terms of content, but its quality over quantity I say.

Same thing with me. GTA4 was ok. And had some novel ideas(t.v. shows to watch). Then the phone....... Everybody you met you have to take out on a date, friends, family, women. It don't matter if your doing a mission or walking down the street. Ring Ring RING!!!! And if you don't answer you get a penalty. And it only gets worse the longer you play into the game. That is what is called a gimmick to cover a average game. Sorry but it's true.

I like Saints Row 2 a lot better then GTAIV but then again I thought Chinatown Wars on the DS was more fun then GTAIV. I've beat Saints Row 2 loads of times and bought all the DLC for it SR2 is better then the first SR on the 360 I like the character customizion. I mostly only play Saints Row 2 on the Team Deathmatches and Strong Arm I can never find anyone else playing CO-OP as they don't have the DLC packs if people don't have the DLC they can't join your game. I can't wait for Saints Row 3 in October 2010.

SR2 is better than GTA4 in a couple of reasons: More activities: SR2 has a ton: demo derbies, hitman, chop shop, fuzz, love escorts, racingand a lot more, while GTA has simple stuff like carjacking, driving around in taxis, and picking up drugs and stuff. it also is more choicy: change clothes, get plastic surgery, buy a house, customize cars, while in gta, you buy clothes and weapons, and keep two cars in front of ur house. It is also more fun and has cool features, weapons, and cars
