The progression scheme allows the player to advance by earning respect, and earning respect is done by completing activities. However, Saints Row does slip in a few original ideas. The recruitment of gang members, the customization elements, and the urban theme is almost enough to embarrass Rockstar with its flattery. In a number of ways, it blatantly borrows elements from GTA, most especially the hip-hop heavy San Andreas. One thing that no one will accuse Saints Row of is originality. Right now, theres a noticeable lag, but if online gamers can endure that, Saints Row has a definitely entertaining online multiplayer.

There is Gang Brawl which is simply deathmatch, Big Ass Chains, Protect the Pimp, and Blinged Out Rides. Saints Rows multiplayer has four modes. Saints Row offers online multiplayer out of the box.

There is also the aiming system, which eschews lock-on for a pseudo first-person control that aims with a free reticule.

The character models and environments are much improved, with reflective surfaces on vehicles and a world that animates as if it were truly alive. The graphics are the most obvious improvement. And Saints Row does improve upon a number of areas where GTA is lacking. The second advantage is that Saints Row follows Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, which gives it the ability to study Grand Thefts shortcomings and improve upon them. The combination of these elements really makes Saints Row feel like a next gen title perhaps San Andreas bigger, stronger older brother. The first is the obvious leap to next-gen, which means that the graphics are far better than GTAs often vilified art style, and the physics engine adds a new dimension to gameplay. Saints Row has two immediate advantages over GTA.
GTA 3 SAINTS ROW MODS SERIES
Since imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, what Saints Row does do is compliment the Grand Theft Auto series by its blatant reproduction of the Rockstar Games cash cow. The inevitable question on every 360 gamers mind is How does Saints Row compare to GTA? Well, the answer is that while Saints Row does a lot of things right, it doesnt quite replace the Grand Theft Auto series. Saints Row, the Xbox 360s own much hyped GTA Killer (at least until GTA IV hits in late 2007) has finally arrived on Xbox.
