Saints Row 2 - The Ronin Cutscenes

[@theprofessional155]

The best part about Saints Row 1 and 2 is that it combined humor and seriousness and had an interesting story. 3 and 4 overdid the humor to the point where it wasnt funny.

[@Mannnnnnnn]

4 was fun and i liked the little nods and things they talked about referenceing saints row 1 and 2 it was for players that stuck with series since the beginning 3 was meh

[@Reddreambigfart]

3 was trying to strike that same happy medium and failed. 4 was just embracing the fact that the originals were real classics that would never be topped, so you might as well just embrace the goofy as hell gameplay and character set-up given in 3...with slight angst here and there.

[@Scorpionspear77]

Red 3 was a lot of fun to play, I feel it controls a little better, and while it didn’t quite hit that middle ground like 2 did (never played 1), I feel it had its own charm due to just how crazy it got near the end(Deckers.die anyone?) though that might be because it was my starting point with this series. And 4? 4 threw all sense, seriousness, and normalcy out the window and ran with the craziness. And it is GLORIOUS. 2 had the better story, but in my opinion 4 is the best game in the series because it is so much fun to play.

[@TheIrland09]

3 was still a pretty good game even though that's when the series started going crazy. It was still about fighting gangs and being a criminal despite the terrible story. SR4 just does away with all that and now it's all about being a superhero and fighting aliens. Why would I want that? That's not I'm looking for in a Saints Row game. If I wanted to do that I'll just play Crackdown or Prototype.

[@blackbulls8783]

I think saints row 3 and 4 wasn't meant to be taken seriously

[@r9delta104]

Man, the writing and acting in SR2 was just so good. It was just the right mix of seriousness and humor before SR3 took the humor a little too far and SR4 pretty much went straight into the deep end.

[@RenoApostoli]

Funny thing with Ronin's is that they may have actually beaten the saints (doubt it, but possible), had Kazuo just let Shogo to lead the Ronin. Just think about it: What did Shogo achieve? - Investigated Casino heist (found out where Gat lived) - Handled Vogel (prevented the loss of an ally) - Tried to kill Gat (Killed his girlfriend and hospitalized) What did Kazuo achieve? - Turned Juynichi against his direct superior (which led to his death) - Tried to kill Gat multiple times (failing at it) - Angered Vogel (HQ got leaked to Saints and destroyed) - Drove Shogo to desparate attempt to kill Saint leadership (indirectly causing his death) Am I overreading this, but was Shogo actually a better leader than his prick father?

[@MajorRibcageIII]

From what I can tell from rewatching these cutscenes, Shogo (although arrogant) understands that the rules back home are much more different than in Stillwater. Sure, he isn't the best leader but with that knowledge it got him pretty far in the game.

[@5XEwgf]

Kazuo thinks that everyone respects that "honor" bullshit and that's why he lost.

[@mercurial2194]

Don Slyone What's worse, is that Shogo is still imprisoned inside a coffin in Hell.

[@alucardyoici]

Yes but Shogo still couldn't finish off Gat at the hospital or even at the funeral so doubt he would win, like Kazuo actually beat the Boss in a swordfight and almost blew up their base in one mission by sheer strength. Still he was smarter than his dad about gang running

[@thatlazguy]

Don Slyone I'm glad you agree with me :)

[@rip-headphone-users2625]

Okay guys, what frustrates me about Aisha's death was that her death could of been prevented by: -Boss and Johnny sticking with Pierce's plan -Boss and Gat not going out for an evening stroll -Aisha not screaming out "ITS A TRAP", even though Gat was ready to take on the house intruders. Like, is anyone feeling the same thing here or is it just me?

[@najeewilson8761]

I agree Aisha should not have died

[@degex5185]

Aisha is Admiral Akbar confirmed?

[@TheIrland09]

The Saints aren't exactly Solid Snake. It's not likely they'd be able to sneak into a heavily guarded casino without a firefight breaking out eventually, and the reason she shouted was because she wanted to let Johnny know it was a trap, even if her life was being threatened. For all she knew he could've just been strolling in like nobody was there.

[@intergalactichumanempire9759]

I agree with you, but they also shouldn't have used Aisha's house as a base. They were just asking for her to die.

[@AnonymousAffection]

+Darvin Sosa Saints Row 2 doesn't need to be remastered as that would overall be a waste of time. If you really want to play it on next gen consoles, buy it on Xbox 360 for cheap and just wait until the Xbox One gets backwards compatibility.

[@deetamerkingofplanets17]

[@DragonMaster204]

+AnonymousAffection Why do you sound so hostile to the idea of there being a remaster or remake for that matter when you can still play the old one if you want but the newer version would be available for those that want to play that version. You sound a little angry to me when he was only recommending a remaster chill lol!

[@AnonymousAffection]

***** How am I sounding hostile when all I'm simply doing is telling you have to save money. I'm not hostile to the idea of a remaster if it actually needs one. I thought the point of remasters was to enhance the resolution and sound of older games that was in standard definition. This game is already in high definition and Xbox One has added backwards compatibility for Xbox 360 games. And calling it a newer version is ridiculous because it's going to be the exact same game as before just with a slight bump in resolution. They're not going to add new missions, new weapons, vehicles, etc.. It's the same as it was before. If they were to remaster Saints Row 2 with all DLC, they would more than likely charge $20-30 for it and it's not going to look that much better since it's already in high definition. Instead of paying $20-30 for it, why not just get it used on the Xbox 360 for $5-10 and then play it on the Xbox One with the online features still active.

Man I am sorry but there is no way you can be sure that is what is likely to happen should it be remastered and no Xbox One has only "partially" added backwards compatibility as it was never released with the software until a few years later. Also a remaster is not technically a waste of time if someone has never played the game before as it gives them a chance to play it with improvements to boot (unless the remaster is rubbish that is) and no I don't "have" to save money as its my choice.

[@TheDecatonkeil]

I wish they rebooted the Saints Row franchise or made a true spiritual successor that recaptured the feel of SR2. The tone of SR2 was perfect: it was the right dose of wacky and colorful and aimed more at being a homage to bad exploitation action movies (like Showdown in Little Tokyo) or honestly great classic movies with a B movie feel (Robocop). It was even cooler when the nods to pop culture were more obscure (it had homages to classic anime like Akira or Megazone 23, which really fit the game) that also allowed the games to make a personality for themselves... with the homages they made in 3 and 4 they were so blatantly obvious and about things so recent in memory (The Matrix, The Dark Knight, The Avengers...) and so central that SRIV specially became "Parody: The Game" and the humor in The Third and IV felt like the videogame equivalent of Scary Movie and the like. Stillwater had also so much character for a fictional hybrid of many cities, it felt so alive and was such a great place to explore (discovering you could dial the phone numbers on billboards and have a reaction to that, etc.). The newer games take on what's fun about a sandbox game consisted on just the opposite: having you spend as little time in the actual soulless city and more in one-off corridor scenes in which the creators could be sure you'd see all the fun stuff and deliver the punchline at the right moment, essentially handholding the player.

[@AnonymousAffection]

Decatonkeil I couldn't agree with you more. SR 2 was just perfect and all they had to do was improve it. Instead, they did the opposite.

[@EthelredFlametail]

The grave part was kind of dark

[@dannylamb456]

+EthelredFlametail Well, the kid was kinda asking for it. First, fuck with the Saints by killing Gat's girl in cold blood. Then, send men after them repeatedly before crashing a burial where even Gat, Johnny fucking Gat, of all people thinks it's tasteless to attack people at. He earned that death. Plus, he sounds spoilt rotten.

[@pokefan2552]

+dannylamb456 He's actually the opposite of spoiled, re-watch these and you'll see that he is actually the opposite, Although he DID deserve to die, I don't think he quite deserved what he got

[@dannylamb456]

Ben Dickie I know, I said 'sounds spoilt rotten'. Besides, he's disrespected his dad and his honour. What a disgraceful prick...

[@pokefan2552]

***** To be fair, his dad DID screw over the ronin by breaking their deal with ultor

[@hesoyam881]

Ronin would have had much more strategical leadership had Shogo continued to run the gang along with Jyunichi under his order. He was a prick but in this world, pricks get farther

[@Hollywood113807]

16 plus years later and Eesh's death scene still hits fucking hard.

[@rileysutton4627]

14:30 Kazuo Akuji: Be silent. You can show yourself out now. It's funny when he says "be silent."

[@Diamond_2403]

The burial scene is definitely one of the darkest scenes in the game. This just goes to show you never fuck with Gat.

[@haku_haku_haku]

Remember that Aisha in Saints Row 1 was a gangster too, and you can tell from the cutscenes she's in. She's completely unbothered by them kidnapping and killing a guy, she's just annoyed it's in her living room. Another thing I noticed is that Johnny immediately knows something was up, so her dying to warn Johnny was ultimately unnecessary. I feel the only reason she doesn't get more respect is because she didn't play much of a part in either game, but there was a great character here despite that.

[@mallgothtrash]

That scene where Gat kills the Ronin with an AK47 is funny, yet badass at the same time. He went hard, but he was also chill about killing ‘em.

[@hoopsonwheels]

"Nobility is sorely overrated" this was the main difference between shogo and his father.

[@RockinNRollinRussian]

"When I escape, the World will not be enough for you to hide in." Could very much be a comeback for the new Ronnin (or just Akuji) in the new Saints Row game since we never *actually* witnessed him dying.

[@chris_player2995]

This actually made me want to play Saints Row 2. Seening SR4 I thought the series was just "wacky GTA" but these cutscenes makes it look like a cool action movie.

[@spencerbowden2979]

Pierce: honestly why can’t we go with my plan? Gat: and what ruin the plot.

[@reddsmoke904]

You know what so fire about Saints Row 2? The people you help in the activities on the first SR, they help you take down the gangs in the second one. They even brought Julius, Dex, Troy and Aisha ( RIP) back. Best sequel ever

[@mrcocoloco7200]

True

[@beingadeeb2345]

I just noticed how every Ronin member died very Brutally. Jyunichi: Literally sliced and chopped up from different places Shogo: Beaten like an animal and then Texas Funeral Kazuo: Shot, Impaled and then left to burn alive

[@Knowledge00856]

I never understood why didn't Junichi just gag Aisha instead of expecting her to just be quiet as they try to kill her boyfriend.

[@SloweBro99]

Back when the characters actually treated the boss like their boss

The fact that Shogo Akuji is ethnically Japanese and is voiced by Yuri Lowenthal makes me think this is how Sasuke Uchiha would be if he moved in to the United States.

[@gordongraham2064]

Man, this game had some amazing cutscene work. I think Saint's Row 3 had the best mechanical design, but 2 definitely had the best story. Vogel was such a great unctuous presence in all the stories, always hovering right on the edge of wanting to kill him because you KNOW he's up to something, and wanting him alive just to see where he's going with it. The goofy themes of the gangs were played with just enough restraint that they always felt like worthy foes. I think 4, maligned as it often is, comes out the second strongest in terms of writing, mostly thanks to the character focus and return to the snappy, satisfying cutscene work of 2, and jettisoning some of the more, uh, uncomfortable humor of 3. I'm looking at Zimos.

[@gageowo9527]

Shogo was genuinely a better leader than his father, and all of the mistakes he made are a result of trying to impress his father. If Kazuo wasn't present, Ronin would have probably killed more saints and kept their deal with ultor. Kazuo is too old-fashioned to succeed in America. Him taking over the gang Doomed it.

[@NikitaFlex0]

I realized what I miss from 1 & 2 series. These cutscenes that explains whole conflict, not just from the protagonist’s eyes but also enemy too. Also these missions are missions, not activities parts.

[@NikitaFlex0]

Also Ronin s cutscenes sometimes reminds Japanese films mixed with awesomeness of the saints

[@scrittle]

Something sorely lacking in SR3. SR4 was too full of plot holes. Gat out of Hell never happened.

[@_Gandalf_The_White]

Even though SR2 still had crass jokes and humour, God damn these scenes felt visceral and shootouts were actually tense.

[@TheTurtleBarbecue]

the sound effects, the direction, the style, the animation, the cutscenes on saints row 2 are the best in the business. Did the people who put in the work for these cutscenes seek better pastures after this game?

[@Toutostar]

this game is so funny and great,, in the beginning gat is almost getting the chair and now he is stabbed and he can go into the hospital without getting arrested.

[@tokyosmoke291]

I seriously enjoyed the animations in the cutscenes when I was younger. Made me feel like I was watching a movie!

[@22kingdomheartsfan]

I've noticed that the Saints only seem to go mad quest for vengeance when they lose someone. First Saints, Lin died, so they went to kill William. Second Saints, Akuji has Aisha killed, they went to kill him. Jessica had Carlos die, so they went after him. 3rd. Phillipe Loren had Johnny kill, they so went after him. And finally, Zinyak blew up the Earth, killing SEVEARL friends of the Saints, and, of course, he died. Now I didn't say the Saints only kill when its vengeance, they'll kill to get rid of the competition, but they seem to be only hungry for vengeance, when they lose someone. Any other time, its just business as usual, and only time they spare someone (Donnie, Matt Miller, Viola,) is if it benefits them.

[@deadchanneldontwatch7347]

2:53 14 years later i noticed Pierce picking up money

21:22 is the best cut scene I’ve seen of Johnny gat

[@YTSH0RTMEME3]

Shogo should've treated junichi with respect also...it was shogos ego that killed him and his fathers most favorite member junichi. I feel like shogo wanted junichi killed because of that disrespectful phone call. Man, the Ronin was yhe BEST part of Sr2

[@SassafrasTee7366]

I have to say I like Mr. Vogel as a villain. He’s is what I think when I think of psychopathic business men. He’s good with his words, seems trustworthy but is a liar, and only cares about himself and his business. Even in hell, he continues to build his company. Best game antagonist ever

saints row 1 and 2 really had a strong narrative. 3 was okay and fourth was just trash from a story perspective.

[@ididntmeantoshootthatvietn5012]

3 had trash writing, 4 although is ridiculous it had a coherent writing

[@grifball100]

16:47 I swear that the priest's voice actor is Keith Szarabajka, the voice of Joshua Graham from Fallout: New Vegas. Realizing this after realizing that Maero is voiced by Michael Dorn, who also played Worf from Star Trek: The Next Generation. My mind is a bit blown right now.

[@Mars_over_seer]

Love how the boss is outmatched in someway by the other gang leaders.

[@isaac_aren]

"I think the waiting part is very important" and "You really shouldn't" are such underrated lines from Vogel that are delivered brilliantly

[@drinimadani4038]

Saints Row, I just love it! Those songs in Saints Row 2 just make me think what the Saints have been through! :/ I hope they will return to the gangster theme, I loved that theme, you like.. controlled an army/gang! I would continue the story like this: The Saints get sucked into a portal to a city like Steelport, since Zinjay said that time-traveling can restore it! They get sucked, and land on gangster-city, with new clothes, companies, gangs, cars etc. You still have Shaundi and Kinzie etc. You will need to start a gang, by doing missions and recruiting people, buying companies and stuff. It's also a crazy over-the-top game with nast and funny stuff! You will need to do missions to conquer a hood like in Saints Row 2, not the 3-4 style. You can customize cars, your gang, you can choose you're gang clothes too, not the colour though. Isn't it fun? I mean, people like the gang-theme, tell me if you like mine! Gonna send this to Volition!

0:12, I’m almost POSITIVE that Pierce’s plan was inspired by the Casino Heist missions from GTA San Andreas. Took me YEARS to make the connection, but the actual Caligula’s robbery plays out almost EXACTLY how Pierce said it, all complicated. Then you have Gat come in and rip the plan to shreds, typical Saints Row style. It took me YEARS to think of that connection, but I wouldn’t be surprised if I’m right!
