Saints Row 2’s biggest asset in the single player mode carries over ten-fold in co-op and that is its unbridled freedom. Well, now I’m going to change that by telling you why this is one of the greatest co-op modes you’ll ever play. For as long as it lasted, it would be a great experience, but not one that had any real staying power.Īnd then, by chance one day, I started playing co-op again.ġ50 hours’ worth of pure, unadulterated fun later, here I am, reading over my review of Saints Row 2 and shocked that I only devoted one paragraph’s worth of text to this amazing mode. To think, when I reviewed it, this was a game that I thought of as being a flash in the pan sort of experience. So far, I’ve clocked somewhere close to 180 hours in my main Saints Row 2 save game and I’m sure that at least 150 of those hours was spent playing co-op online. This was a question I jokingly received from my buddy SkittlesMcGee (a soon to be contributor here) while playing Saints Row 2 in co-op as we so often did.
