ninja gang? u mean the ronins?

well, here's my 2 cents..

multiplayer changed a lot since the last saints row.. don't expect blinged out ride, protect tha pimp, or any of those modes back in the scene.. instead, they're replaced with strong arms... a series of random events that occurs within a time limit.. there's no more gangs for multiplayer.. so, for those ol' "Gangs oF LowYat" members.. i'm sorry to say this but we can't fight like we used to in a gang.. however, the new multiplayer gameplay is really fun and addictive.. leveling up ranks aren't the same same as before where ur kill/death ratio determines your level.. instead, levels are determined by badges.. each badge have objectives for to you to do to get it.. for instance, if you get 10 multi-kills throughout your sessions, you'll be awarded with a "mass murder" badge.. each badge also unlocks new costumes and accessories.. the co-op is really exciting as you and your friend get to unleash mayhem upon stillwater.. graphics improved a lot and so are a few stuff like physics, character customizations are very detailed.. not to mentioned, car customization and crib customization.. i spent an hour creating a fictional character to look like me.. lol.. sorry, there's no possible way you can import the character from saints row.. that was a disappointment..there's more activities than the previous one...  so yeah.. waited for it.. happy with it.. lovin' it..

p/s: i love this more than gta iv.. even though both are my personal favourite.. cheers =)

that's normal... even on co-op, it'll freeze and yes till u have to off it and reboot.. but that's ok if you safe regularly..
