Saints Row 2 (PS3)

OVERVIEW: It's Volition, Inc.'s second game in the Saints Row series after the successful "Saints Row" for Xbox 360. This time though, it's also on Playstation 3 and PC. Like the previous Saints Row, it's set in the fictional city of Stilwater, but things have changed. The city is bigger than last time and the Saints Row area is under new ownership and very different.
