In all logical sense.
It's just a game.
Many, many, games have fallen into this exact catagory, and perdicament in which you explain, and they simply, and surely just die. Plenty people have fun with this game, like me, and doesn't mean you have to be so offended of this in particular. Actually, the fact you made a serious rant about it worries me.
It's a game. What people make of it is there opinion, as it always has. So, I hate to be a pain, but seriously, calm down, and let's like, get some icecream or something.
Many games have sucked based on their inability to compute, I agree.
In this particular case is a terrible game that was hyped by idiots who never even played it, on a system that was released a year before any other next gen system just so that it could rake in some cash early.
These are unfinished products being sold to us as substandard crap in a shiny new cd case. saints row would die immediately if GTA hadn't already paved the way for half assed microsoft funded bullshit to steal some of it's thunder. There are no excuses for the flaws that plague these games, they had enough time and money to make a worthy effort into making it fun and interesting. Instead they made it monotonous and gave it a story line that makes "you got served" seem worthy of broadway.

the A.I was fine. are you sure you played the real game, not the demo? people like it better because you can do new stuff like jump on someones car and then they get scared and drive like maniacs.
I never really liked GTA style games that much.
Umm, the AI is not fine.
In GTA, if you have a vehicle and there's a person nearby who according to the mission is being protected by you and would like very much to be in that vehicle, they'll get in it. In saints row, if you have a vehicle and it's moved in some slight way while they idiot you're supposed to escort is a split second away from getting in, they'll stand there absolutely refusing to enter the vehicle and escape the hail of bullets.
Before the idiots you're supposed to protect can get into your vehicle, you have to push up on the controller. The xbox 360 will let you know when you can finally play your game and actually do that however, you'll find yourself changing the radio station frantically while you're trying to tell the idiots you're supposed to protect "Hey, guess what. The bullets don't hurt so much when you're in here.".
Every other AI flaw in GTA is ever present in saints row. volition just decided that they wouldn't need to finish saints row since DMA already made the genre popular.
SUCKS!!
I've debated this subject with some very proud players of a new xbox 360 game called "saints row". It's difficult to debate with fans of the game because most of them are complete morons, and I never know where to begin in correcting their points and rebuttles.
One idiot in particular who at first seemed to have his concept of reality in check explained an analogy to me which was "Grant Theft Auto is to saints row, as punch out is to fight night 3". I bitch slapped the moron, and left it at that.
saints row was a more extreme version of the term "over hyped" than any other game in history. The (dear god I want to call them the other f word) fairies on "the best damn sports show period" advertising the game is what made most of my cohorts run out and purchase it.
In playing the game I realized something common in xbox 360 games, it's not finished. It's not even half way done. Like every single xbox 360 game except for Oblivion, the dialogue is pointless and a complete waste of time they could have spent making the game a little more realistic.
Case in point. The AI is fucking bullshit. When you have to bring a companion elsewhere while bullets are tearing through their flesh, at times they'll go through what must be a thought process. Instead of getting into your vehicle and out of harms way, they'll often stand there debating the logic of such a decision.
You can drive the exact same vehicle as someone pursuing you, and their version of your vehicle will have a top speed of about a hundred miles an hour higher. If you're going top speed, they'll ram you from behind emptying impossible amounts of uzi ammo into your vehicle.
You can blow up a train. Wahoo. It only amounts to watching a paper-mâché train flop apart with a cheesy explosion effect added in.
The game has more glitches than any other game you'll ever own. 90% of the challenge is based on the glitches, and the fucking stupid shit that the idiots at volition decided would make it a good game. You can take down impossible amounts of gang members, but they'll still show up. Sometimes enemies will show up behind you in their vehicle, which would be impossible considering it's in a fucking dead end alley.
If there's one game that needs to be banned from existence, it's saints row. For the sake of video gamers everywhere this piece of shit needs to be eradicated from memory. I'm willing to wait for Grant Theft Auto 4 now that I've seen what I could be playing as an alternative.
DMA can take all the time they want, they actually have empathy for video gamers and realize that it's better to release a finished product after an extended amount of time than a piece of shit so you could start raking in dipshit money.

If you already have a pc that can process 2.0 gigahertz, just play Oblivion on that. You won't have to subscribe to xbox live to download updates that way.
My pc is 3.0 ghz and it can't play oblivion as well as the 360. Also i have had oblvion for ages and have played it a lot and it has never crashed let alone chewed up my disc.
My 360 didn't chew up Oblivion either, it saved that for other games of mine.
I assume that if you go out and buy a pc with 3.0 gigahertz these days, you're probably savvy enough to get a gig of ram and a decent graphics card at the same time.

The only way it will scratch discs is if you move the console while the disc is being read. Microsoft warn you not to do this, for this very reason.
Microsoft accuses gamers of moving the system so they won't have to admit that their system is capable of destroying discs on it's own.
In my case my xbox 360 would stand vertically, and never moved at all from that position. I was playing Dead or Alive 4 and the game locked up, until eventually showing me a screen that explained how my disc was not readable. I turned off the system, and turned it back on again. The game loaded somewhat, but would hang on the loading screen when I'd try to start playing it. I took the disc out and examined it, I found circular scrathes that were obviously the reason why the game would only load halfway. I tried various dvd repair kits, but they could not buff out the scratches.
Other games played inexplicably well however, so I didn't think too much of it.
The exact same set of circumstances occured while I was playing Saints Row. It was after that when I realized that destroyed games are a common mishap with the xbox 360. Everyone else I know that owns one has at least one story involving the system dissapointing them in some obscene way. Those who at first had no complaints eventually realized that it wasn't a question of if, but when.

I still am going to persist that my Xbox HAS NOT munched any of my games... yet. Maybe all the 360s that kill your games are in USA. Perhaps yours is just faulty... I dont know. But, look at all the coonectivity you get - to your PC, your usb stick and plus, even your iPod. (I got mine to work)
First off, Halos one and two were a couple of first person shooters, with story lines that made the one behind the original Doom sound in depth. Secondly, there is no halo 3 for the 360 at the moment. Halo 3 is going to become a first person shooter that looks and feels exactly like every other halo before it, I'm 100% sure of this. Using halo as an example of why one should invest money in the 360 shows just how in depth a game has to be in order to please you.
Selling an xbox 360 based on the fact that you can connect it to a pc is one of the most ass backwards ideas I've ever heard of. If you have a modern pc, your xbox 360 is already obselete. You'd only be connecting the two devices to prove that it's possible. You can share data between them when you really truly have ungodly amounts of time on your hands, because you will have accomplished as much as you would have watching paint dry.
Yes, you can plug a usb stick into it. You could do that with a playstation 2, nobody did however. Captain obvious to the rescue, It's a video game system.
It's compatible with an iPod? Really? I did not know that. I've only ever used my iPod to play music while I run, and have only ever connected it to my pc. It can interface with an xbox 360? Well sir, in this case I'll take your word for it and give the xbox 360 that much credit.
Buy the xbox 360, it can interface with an iPod.

quit bitching because you arent gonna change anyone's minds
I bought mine in April, and it turned out to be more trouble than it was worth. The games are consistently terrible for their lack of development, which is pretty pathetic in the year 2006.
In my opinion something had to be said; a next generation console is a festerpus of flaws. People are being duped into investing money into it by fake reviews that foster high expectations, fake reviews that are invested by the company that's trying to push the crap onto the video game world.
I don't work for sony or nintendo. They're going to have to go to some pretty outlandish extremes to release a product more pathetic than the xbox 360.

Edn.
PS: I have an Xbox 360. it doesnt kill your games.
Every system gets a fair shake with me. I'm anything but a sony fanboy. I've already explained how dissapointed I was with the psp in a previous thread. Nintendo is a pure and decent family oreinted company, which at times make it seem pathetic and redundant to the average video gamer.
You havent had your xbox 360 for very long, eventually it will kill one of your games.

I wasn't trying to say "don't buy it", I said "don't buy it". The rest of what I said was what those of us with a grade school education call an "explanation". Explanations are used to show that a claim is relevant and are often omitted by those whose statements are limited to wild accusations, meritless opinions and irrelevant inquiries.
I know I might be putting too much faith in your ability to comprehend what I wrote, but I'd like to know what you don't think is true about what I said.
It's not getting back at microsoft per se, more like a mercy killing. They need to get back to pushing their software on the pc market.

If you havent had any problems with it, then you havent had it for very long. I hadn't had mine for six months, but anyone else I knew who did realized the hard way that around 6 months is an xbox 360's ceiling of mortality.
So far I've only endured two destroyed games, at least I got to sell the system. Two of my friends had to deal with fried xbox 360's.

How about, u just stop playing ur 360, a little less extreme
Video games have come a long way. Back when games were severly limited in how much detail they could posess, they had to be optimized in ways that made them more appealing to the gamer. This trend continued and as more artistic detail could be added to the game, video game developers never forget that a game should always be fun above all else.
xbox 360 games are the exact opposite of that principle. microsoft has managed to send video games back 20 years by selling them completely based on their involvement with a next generation console. Of course the imagery will have to be shiny and pretty, therefore the actual gameplay and content will be ignored.
Other consoles have done this, but they had great flagship games to fall back on as well as a vast repitoire of games that one could easily sit down and waste time with. Games on the xbox 360 punish you with mundane gameplay, and force you to endure hours of bad story based dialogue and content.
Microsoft wanted to get a jump start on the next generation video game market so badly. They couldn't wait until their product received extensive tests, why would they have too? They're microsoft, they shit gold.
They created what in their opinions was a video game system. The truth is, it is and it isn't a video game system.
It plays what one would assume are video games, but if that game is anything other than "Elder Scrolls Oblivion" or "Dead or Alive 4", you've been ripped off. After you lose your faith in their ability to release one good exclusive game for the system, you may realize that the system can destroy your discs as you play them. If your game locks up, remove your disc immediately. The game locking up is a sign that the system has started destroying your sixty dollar investment.
The games reflect the system, in that they were also released prematurely. Games like "perfect dark zero", "enchanted arms", or "ninety nine nights". Games that microsoft has no shame in regard too, and will even pay idiots to write good reviews for on websites like amazon.com.
I'm going cold turkey from microsoft products. Selling the 360 and all the games, exploring linux, and using firefox.
Never has a company with such a proud reputation committed such a sadistic act against those who made it rich in the first place. Let microsoft's involvement in the video game market die mercifully with the 360, there truly is no hope for it.

Stephen Colbert kicked the pride-erroid infested asses of every idiot in that audience in the only way possible, through showing them how they actually sound to intelligent minds. Stephen Colbert, who is obviously a genius, allowed intellectuals like me to get the jokes by luring us in with explanations of why bush is such a great role model only to turn it around at the last minute with punchlines that made it obvious enough even to a dipshit like bush. Morons worked diligently to keep this away from the public, for fear that it would actually allow us to think for ourselves, not realizing that this is no longer the (fake) space age. The information age owes Stephen Colbert a debt of gratitude for truly justifying it’s existence, while bush lovers are trying to control it to the point of basic non-existence. Stephen Colbert is not alot of things. Stephen Colbert is not a scientologist, he’s not a skull and bones member, he’s not a politician, and he’s most certainly not a person that bill oreilly wants to debate. Stephen Colbert is a genuine human being, giving us a reason to laugh in the face of idiots who try to make us fear going outside without a gas mask. I cannot thank Stephen Colbert enough for not blowing the opportunity he was given, for showing george bush just how painful a realistic point of view is, for giving the american people a reason to laugh at people we’d otherwise be burning at the stake. Stephen Colbert also plays Dungeons and Dragons, my level 13 paladin could kick his ass, but it would be a very interesting set of dialogue when the two characters debate the relevance of having lords of waterdeep. Stephen Colbert, Thank You.
Truth be told. Bin laden is not a self made man.
Me: Mr. Bush. I understand that you're a member of the elite american secret organization known as the Skull and Bones. Can you give me details on this secret group?
Bush: Well I ahh, what can I say, uhhh, I uhhh.
Me: Nevermind, I found this link http://www.freedomdo...com/skullbones.html

The blind woman pauses, and sniffs the air.
Blind woman: I'm blind, but that doesn't make me stupid. There's people in here.
The blind woman pulls her jeans back up, picks up her cane, and beings to swing it back and forth as she surveys the room. The blind woman whacks the head of the police woman, impacting her skull, causing her jaw to lock down.
Johnny: I think that's my queue to leave.
milf: Huh?
The blind woman whacks the milf on the ass with the cane.
milf: Ohhh, that's cedar isn't it?
Johnny bolts out the window, and slides down the ladder wearing only the police belt. Johnny feels his stomach rumbling, knowing he'll have to drink his lunch pretty soon. A pimp in the nearby alley can be heard beating the shit out of one of his hoes.

Blind lady: Huh, I left the tv on. At least it's left on a good channel.
Johnny shrugs his shoulders, and grabs a handfull of the milfs hair. Johnny yanks the milfs head back off his cock, and starts ramming his cock between her double d dick huggers.
The blind lady, not noticing the calamity that befell her door, sits on the warm radiator and starts touching herself.
Johnny turns the milf over onto her stomach, and starts to ram her hot child bearing ass doggie style.
