I've received a few trophies playing Saints Row 2.

Just found another thing here that I've always wished the GTA series would implement. I found a newspaper icon in one of my safehouses that allows me to replay any mission I've completed, just for fun. I've always been ticked this wasn't offered in GTA, because some of the missions would be a blast to just play through for the hell of it.

I'm finding the side activities to be a lot of fun. Fuzz is fantastic.

I have had a problem, possibly a glitch, with Heli Assault. I can't remember which location, but it's on level 2 - where you're protecting a van while it makes stops. Well, I defended the damn van for about ten minutes and it never moved from 0/4 stops. It just sat there stopped in front of some building. I finally gave up and tried the mission again and it did the same thing the second time. The enemies keep spawning but it makes no progress. Is there something else I'm supposed to be doing here?

I heard they weren't supporting them. Was it a last minute change?

Let me check my trophies to be 100% sure but I think they do.

It says there may be a patch at a later date, but I doubt they already added it.

I was playing last night and on a mission, one of the homies changed the station and was like "This sucks." He changed it to the Classical station. My character said "Hey, I was listening to that" and changed it back. They went on for another minute or so arguing about it

Oh and I find it hillarious how Pierce is always getting stepped on and left behind

There's a secret mission that is pretty cool. If you go to the police station in Saints Row. Go to the 4th floor and listen to all 3 of the wiretaps then get the file on Julius in one of the office. You'll get a call from Dex to meet him at the old church.

Make sure you load up on ammo and health. Keith David's voice is awesome.

I guess maybe I was wrong about the trophies on the PS3. I could have sworn that I had earned a trophy for something I did in the game. Hopefully they will implement them in the near future. It isn't a dealbreaker for me anyways as the game is really fun.

This game is fantastic. IMO it blows GTA out of the water. I'm having an absolute blast playing the mini-games; especially Insurance Fraud. I'm playing on the easiest difficulty level simply because my gaming time is limited -- but it's just a blast to play. My only wish is that you could "warp" to your desired position -- a la calling a cab in GTA.

I finished that one today. Nice throwback to the first game.

Oh and you call Dex, he doesn't call you.

That's right. His name shows up in the phone book.

Fight Clubs get rough. Finally beat one of the locations.

I wasn't planning on getting this, since I only mildly enjoyed SR1, but after all the good reviews and even better word-of-mouth, I'm IN...

Anyone notice all the "Pride & Glory" ads everywhere? I really like that. It makes the world so much more real when there are real advertisements.

I missed those, what are they and where?

I was laughing at the names of some of the vehicles in the game Not sure if they were the same names in the first game but I caught the following:

The Mail trucks are called Newmans (Seinfeld reference)
One of the jets is called Snipes 57 (Passenger 57 reference)
The Ford Bronco type car is called Nordberg (Naked Gun/OJ reference)

I am sure there are more, I just haven't seen them yet.

The ads are pretty standard to the same ads you've probably seen on websites. I've seen them on a few different signs and billboards.

The vehicle references are great. Another one I noticed is that the golf cart is called "Knoxville"

probably ads for the new movie coming out called Pride and Glory

I never heard of it

I'm nearly done beating this game. It's kinda sad actually.

I had a blast doing the insurance fraud missions last night.

Damn, those escort missions are freakin' HARD.

I am enjoying this game, some of the activities are alot of fun. I really liked Fuzz. I can't seem to figure out how to gamble though. I went to the casino that was in the Rec center, but it wouldn't let me do anything. I remember being in a Casino for one of the missions, but I can't find it now. Do I need to go there to gamble?

in the nightclubs there is poker machines.

Hmm I went to Back Trax, and Cocks and didn't see any machine. Is it only certain clubs?

I think you can only gamble at Poseidan's Palace. It's in the Marina at the top of the map. Does anyone know how to get the chainsaw? I've heard if you complete all the Celebrity Bodyguard missions in the Marina you can get it. However, those are hard as hell. Is there another way?
