Prices
The United States storefront in every case, so this compares stores and not countries.
Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
14 of 15 markets; the rest we haven't asked for this title, not markets where it is unavailable.
Availability
We put this game to every storefront we collect. A market that answered not sold has told us something about the game; a market we never asked has not, and the two are never drawn the same.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 2/day in the week to Aug 25 → 4.43/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 25 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 10 places towards #1, and the 2,413 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

GET THE JUICED PATCH!!! The game is an unplayable broken mess, but the juiced patch turns it into the definitive way to play the game. Also, with the juiced patch, you can even get the DLC from the console versions that never made it to PC.
One of the BEST GAMES EVER MADE. Would I ever play this game on my computer? ABSOLUTELY NOT. Even with compatibility patches this game has never worked well for me. HOWEVER, IF YOU HAPPEN TO OWN A STEAM DECK, THIS GAME RUNS BETTER THAN IT DOES ON THE NATIVE 360 VERSION. I don't know what kind of sorcery they pulled with this ♥♥♥♥, but if you own a Steam Deck, and own this game, PLAY IT. If you don't own one or both of these things, buy them. Yes, Saints Row 2 is so PEAK I am telling you to buy a Steam Deck just to play it. Unless you own a 360 then just do that with the DLC. If you DON'T and die without playing through Saints Row 2 in your life you will put a curse upon your bloodline for the next 7 generations. EDIT: SINCE WRITING THIS REVIEW I HAVE ALSO USED THE JUICED PATCH WITH THE RECENTLY RELEASE DLC TO PC MOD AND IT HAS ALSO WORKED WONDERFULLY. AFTER ALL THESE YEARS SR2 HAS ACTUALLY BEEN SAVED. REST IN PEACE MIKE WATSON I WISH YOU WERE HERE TO SEE THIS.

14 on sale1 answered “not sold”0 we did not ask
The 1 “not sold” market is read from the Steam price pass of Sep 7: that day the store answered for this game elsewhere and gave no price there. The 14 priced markets are the same rows as the table above — each the latest price we hold, dated here when it is older than that pass. The 0 marked “not asked” were not put to this store at all — either it has no storefront there or we do not collect it yet, and neither is a statement about the game. A refusal is a refusal on one day; a store can list a title again tomorrow.

Juiced Patch FTW, took me less than 2 minutes to set up and I've never seen Stillwater look so good even on my bucket of a gaming PC.
I stopped throwing boxes full of lyme infected lone star ticks into midwest fields to beat this game. Gloinky experience. 10/10
[h1]Comentario Analítico: "Saints Row 2"[/h1] En 2008 estrenó la secuela del tan aclamado GTA-killer que, incluso si se tomaba a sí mismo más en serio que sus títulos posteriores, siempre apeló a un tono aún más desenfadado que su competencia, lo que dio pie a lo que fue para muchos la muerte de esta franquicia en tanto Saints Row: The Third y Saints Row IV, y una década más tarde, el irrescatable espanto de reboot que en nombre de esta franquicia. Pero antes de todo esto tuvimos ya no sólo al excelentísimo primer juego, sino a una brillante secuela que aún conservaba el ADN de esta franquicia; Saints Row 2 es de lo mejor que surgió de entre tantos títulos buscando ser el siguiente GTA. Saints Row 2 es todo lo que un juego de mundo abierto contemporáneo y (...relativamente) verosímil debe ser si lo que se busca es una dinámica estilo Sandbox; profundamente customizable y abundante en minijuegos y misiones ridículas con entretenidos personajes. Este port para PC es infame por su semejanza al de GTA IV; crasheos constantes, bajones de framerates, artefactos en las texturas y sombras y la ausencia de todo tipo de soporte en línea tras el cierre de GameSpy a causa de la pérdida del código fuente tras la declaración de bancarrota de THQ. En 2019 Volition anunció que lograron hacerse con el código fuente y empezarían a trabajar en un parche para que Saints Row 2 pueda correr de manera óptima en ordenadores modernos, además de incluir gratuitamente un par de DLCs que nunca habían llegado a PC ('Ultor Exposed' y 'Corporate Warfare') y un multijugador funcional corriendo por medio de los servidores de Steam; claramente se trataba de un parche fundamental creado y dirigido por gente con particular aprecio por este juego, y quedó a cargo de IdolNinja (Mike Watson), quien eventualmente fue diagnosticado con cáncer antes de perecer el 5 de Agosto del 2021. Mike era consciente del deterioro de su condición y decidió encargar el parche a un pequeño equipo especializado dentro de tanto Volition como Deep Silver; sin embargo y a ya más de 5 años, el parche aún no estrenó y no pareciera ir a estrenar en algún futuro próximo. Esto me entristece, IdolNinja fue un apasionado que trabajó hasta el fin en pos de arreglar y mejorar la iteración para PC de Saints Row 2, un juego claramente importante para él, y ni Volition ni Deep Silver cumplieron con su parte. Que en paz descanse. Piratear el reboot de esta franquicia es moralmente correcto, ¿pero quién querría jugarlo? Busquen los videos de @Flippy en YouTube, se trata de otro fan de Saints Row que acabó perdiendo la fé en el futuro de sus juegos preferidos en vista del camino por el que Volition lo dirigió. Usen Steamless, el parche de 4gb de NTCore, DXVK y SR2 JUICED, si es que quieren que Saints Row 2 corra apropiadamente. También recomiendo el mod 'Gentlemen of the Row', pueden configurarlo a su gusto. [b]¿En conclusión?[/b] En palabras del batch de Gentlemen of the Row: '[i]If you're not spending every moment in SR2 doing r3tarded crazy sh1t, then you're doing it wrong![/i]' (Lo censuré porque de lo contrario Steam se me enoja).
My thoughts: Everyone should leave a negative review on this game in protest. The Steam version is shipped with broken content, filled with crashes, major FPS drops regardless of your hardware, and other really odd bugs. Using a patch (either Gentlemen of the Row or Juiced) you can fix this, but it's even still not recommended to use the steam executable, which is broken. I had to buy the game on GoG (luckily it's on sale right now), grab the executable from there, replace the steam executable, install a patch, and now the game seems to work smoothly with more FPS. The sad thing is, this is not the only game on steam that ships in a broken state. There's several others, generally really crappy PC ports or really old games, that require patches before they'll even boot. I can't in good faith stand by these practices, so instead of reviewing the actual game (which I really enjoy), I'll leave my negative review for visibility.
You need to use the juiced patch, or the PC port is unplayable. I enjoyed my time replaying this game for the first time in years. Has the early 2000s edge. It's the last "believable" gang-based Saints Row game, before it got too stupid and over the top. The main story and cutscenes are mostly realistic and directed well; the only over-the-top things in the game are the side activities. Credits rolled after 12h30m with 66% game completion 7/10
So i played this game on xbox360 more then 20 times but now i bought it for pc and it is very bad. In the first mission when you go to the store to change clothes it crashes(and i have tried it 10 times)Is unplayable DO NOT BUY THIS GAME ON PC
Come for the Xbox 360 era nostalgia, leave when you realize its a buggy mess. Sadly... I cannot recommend a broken game to anyone. Oh... SAVE OFTEN.
