(He was the one that created the system for saving, uploading, and downloading player characters via the Saints Row website, though he didnвЂ™t mention whether the new Saints Row 2 will be compatible going forward.) As a team of two, theyвЂ™ll be the ones updating the source code for PC and also (this is my favorite part!) incorporating all the DLC missions, which until now have been Playstation-only. Joining IdolNinja on this project is Jim Boone, a Volition programmer whoвЂ™s worked extensively on the Saints Row website and will be handling the technical aspects, while IdolNinja is the project manager.

And I agree 100%! I cannot wait to dust the mothballs off those shock paddles, one of my favorite weapons in any game! IdolNinja was hired by Volition due to his outstanding work in the Saints Row modding community, and he mentions on stream that this SR2 rerelease has been one of his personal white whales because he knows the game deserves it.

Mike Watson is well-known in the Saints Row modding community as IdolNinja, the creator of the Gentlemen of the Row omni-mod that most other SR2 mods use to function and remains a mandatory download to get the current PC port to even run.

Volition has announced that theyвЂ™ve found the source code for the game! Fans of the series have known for years that the SR2 source code was the missing link needed for a new port to ever happen, and Volition devs Thomas Jepp and Mike Watson finally obtained a copy through repeated queries to THQ, the long-bankrupt company that sold Volition the Saints Row rights. It also has the only stealth mission in the franchise, not counting the heavily-scripted Metal Gear Solid parody from SR4.Д«ut all that will soon be a thing of the past. Its one major problem is that the PC port is downright terrible, making it a chore to even see the great game underneath the choppy framerate, unplayable vehicle sections and constant crashes. Yet it was also before they veered off the deep end into wacky zany nonsensical insanity, which leaves Saints Row 2 as the perfect middle child of both worlds. It was the first one where the devs stopped trying to make gritty GTA clones and instead created a gangster sandbox that didnвЂ™t take itself seriously. Saints Row 2 is among my favorite games of all time.
