Saints Row 2 is looking to be what Grand Theft Auto IV was not, an over the top title with a number of insane side quests. Among those side quests is a full 3D zombie shooter similar in nature to Dead Rising.
There are a number of other bonus side quests included in the game. They run the gambit from hijacking septic truck to spray the contents on various businesses for a show called Septic Avenger to acting as a bodyguard for in-game celebrities.
There are also a ton of co-op games to try out with the game's robust co-op support. GameSpot has a full two pages dedicated to bringing you the latest on Saints Row 2 from their most recent hands-on with the title. Go on, give it a read.
Saints Row 2 is slated for a mid-October release on the PC, PS3, and Xbox 360.
Finally, because even the most violent criminal needs a home to call his own, you can also customize your crib. There's the option to simply upgrade your crib's overall theme from something cheap and run down to something much classier, or upgrade your furniture piece by piece. However, even the cheapest of entertainment centers gives you the ability to play one of Saints Row 2's hidden gems: a video game within the game called "Zombie Uprising." Rather than a retro arcade game, this is actually a fully 3D zombie game that applies the look and feel of the regular game to a darker, more zombie-filled setting. In it you need to survive wave after wave of undead with a limited number of weapons and fellow survivors. It may be a poor man's Left 4 Dead, but it's still a very cool throw-in that's indicative of just how much there is to do in Saints Row 2 if you go around looking.
