Okay, well I decided to start a Saints Row 2 thread.
The basics; Saints Row 2 is pretty much another GTA game, but made by another company and with a different story line.
Epilogue: You were a part of a gang known as the Saints. You had 3 lieutenants; Julius, Troy and Johnny Gat. (Pretty sure there's another 2 but I can't remember their names). The Saints used to own the city of Stillwater. Since you have been in a coma, 3 gangs have taken over; The Brotherhood, The Sons of Samedi, and The Ronin.
Julius: Hasn't really got a part in the story.
Troy: Troy used to be an undercover cop. Once they found out, he asked the Saints to disappear, to protect them. He told Julius to try abolishing the Saints. He came up with an idea for a massive explosion.
Johnny Gat: Johnny is best mates with your character. He gets arrested and is on death row for 2 and a bit years.
You: You are caught in the explosion, and are badly burnt. Even so, you are still arrested, and put in a coma for 2 years.
Start of game: The game starts with two police officers hearing about you waking up. There is a small cut-scene as they walk to the infirmary, which is where the doctor says; 'We are about to take off the bandages'. This is when you design your character. You can do anything, even make then a transvestite.
During the cut-scene you notice a shanking (Someone being stabbed) in the back-ground as they police pass the cells.
Just as before you start making your character the victim is sent into the infirmary. Once you're done making your character, the curtains open. It's the person who has been shanked. His name is Carlos. His brother was in the Saints, and he wants to help you break out of prison.
Breaking out: You are given two choices, either escape through the roof-tops (tutorial) or barge out through the front (normal).
Once you've broken out, you man a gun on a boat, and protect Carlos while he drives.
First mission: You have $500. You go and buy new clothes, then go to a strip-club to soak up some imformation about the 3 gangs that have taken over Stillwater. This is where you see that Johnny Gat is being sentenced to death via the electric chair.
You go to the trial, and save Johnny. He becomes your 1st lieutenant.
You need to earn Respect to start missions. Respect can be earned by; killing other gang members, doing tricks in your car, or by doing activities.
Second mission: You have to find a hideout for your crew. You decide on choosing an old mission house, which has an underground hotel, which you decide to clean out and make your new crib.
Third mission, 'The three kings': This is where you get another 3 lieutenants, Shandi, Carlos and Peirce. You do a mission for each one.
Once done, you head back to the hideout. Shandi takes the Sons of Samedi, Carlos gets the Brotherhood and Peirce gets the Ronin.
Once done, you can start missions against each gang.
From there on, you're either slaughtering other gang members, earning respect and unlocks, or running from the police.
What I would do; Before your start any missions against other gangs, I would go to the downtown district, and go to Brighton. Start the 'Snatch' activity. There are 6 levels on each activity. At level 3, you get an unlock, and at level 6 you get another one.
Snatch in Downtown, Brighton, gives you a GAL 43 SMG; once you have finished level 3. Once you've done level 6, you get unlimited SMG ammo.
Then go and start the Ronin missions. These are the most rewarding, and gives you a large portion of Stillwater back.
Missions: Missions are objectives that you do against another gang. For example, you may have to go to one of their meeting places and kill a certain amount of Ronin or, it could be breaking into one of their casino's and stealing all of their money. Each mission gives you money. And you earn respect normally as you would in normal game-play.
Strongholds: Strongholds are well, pretty much strongholds.. You have to break in there, and kill all of the lieutenants that are there, giving you a new area.
Once you have completed all of the Strongholds and Missions, that gang will be gone.
Hoods: Once you complete a mission or stronghold against another gang, you get some of their area. Once you own an area, you make $500 a day from it, which can be gotten from your crib stash. Once you own a hood, you can buy the stores that are in that hood for extra money. They range from $2,500 to $10,000. Giving you another $100 - $500 per day. Once you buy a store, you will receive a 10% discount on everything they sell.
Cars: You can steal any car that you wish. Once you have a car, and some money to burn, you can take it to a Rim Job's shop. There you can customize your car. (Very limited) You can add NOS, or Hydraulics. Increase it's speed, tyre durability and/or add Kneecaps (Spikes come out of the rims of your car). Then you can change the bumper, and add body-kits, change it's wheels and it's color.
Bonus activities:
Car-surfing; You can get on top of a car, and stand there. After the car starts moving you can Car-surf. If you get 3 gold stars, you receive a traffic cone hat.
Mugging: Get your pistol out, and aim it at someone. Works better if their sitting down or standing still. Press R3 to zoom in (YOU MUST ZOOM IN) and put the cross hairs on them. They will stand up, and you put your cross hairs on them again, and they will put their arms up. After 3-4 seconds they will drop money. If you mug 25 people, you get a Paint ball mask.
I will keep adding to this when I find out more things.
Thanks for reading.
