DescriptionEdit

Saints Row 2 Intro Cutscene TSSP-INTRO-pt1(03:32)
291 views

While Saints Row 1 took a more realistic, more serious edge, Saints Row 2 is a lot more ridiculous and cartoonish, though the in-game cutscenes are gritty and ambient. However Saints Row 2 is still signifigantly more grounded in reality compared to Saints Row: The Third.

Plot Edit

After the explosion of Alderman Richard Hughes private yacht, The Protagonist is put in a coma. For several years he had been kept in intensive care at the Hospital Ward in the Stilwater Penitentiary, where he received extensive plastic surgery to mend his wounds. During his absence, the 3rd Street Saints disbanded, and their legacy was soon forgotten.

When he awakes, The Protagonist breaks out of prison with fellow inmate Carlos Mendoza^[1]. He rescues his old colleague Johnny Gat from death row^[2], and together they decide to resurrect the Saints. After he and Gat find a new hideout^[3], The Protagonist declares himself the gang's new leader, and sets to work recruiting new members, including Carlos, Pierce, and Shaundi^[4]. The reborn Saints soon formulate a plan to re-claim the city of Stilwater from three new gangs that had taken over in their absence: The Sons of Samedi, The Brotherhood and The Ronin.

Once this quest is complete, the Saints find themselves in an unexpected conflict with the Ultor Corporation, who seek to eradicate the gang in order to further their own goals for Stilwater.^[reference?] Formerly a company which produced clothes and household brand products, Ultor had used its immense funds to drastically reshape both itself and the Saint's Row District within the last few years.^[reference?] In the process, Ultor became a major, powerhouse corporation with its own private army, and they extended their power, reach, and influence into almost every aspect of Stilwater society, including the Stilwater PD.

Eventually the Saints succeed in foiling Ultor's plans and overthrow its influence on the city when The Protagonist kills the company chairman and CEO, Dane Vogel.^[reference?]
