Saints Row: Difference between revisions

* [[Disney Villain Death]]: The end of the Vice Kings storyline, where {{spoiler|Tanya Winters is knocked out of King's penthouse, falling forty stories before landing on [[Car Cushion|King's car]]}}.

* [[Downer Ending]]: The game ends with your character being blown up on a yacht, spending five years in a coma, and undergoing major reconstructive surgery prior to the second game. On the plus side, this justifies any and all appearance changes between the two games... except for, perhaps, the possible different gender. But just pretend it was always like that.

* [[Enemy Civil War]]: {{spoiler|The Vice Kings still loyal to King vs the Vice Kings who sided with Tanya.}}

* [[Fake Difficulty]]: The [[Player Character]] can't figure out how to stick his RPG launcher over a ledge when he's aiming downward, so you end up blowing yourself up. The frequency of missions where you're expected to drive competently at high speeds ''and'' do damage to an enemy car with a weapon instead of your car near the endgame goes way up. Strangely, this is helped in the sequel by two changes - cruise control and remapping of the driving controls (allowing you to steer/shoot with your left hand and accelerate/aim with your right hand, rather than having accelerate/aim/shoot all done with the right hand as in this game).

* [[Gangsta Style]]: Played straight, but averted in the sequel.

* [[Goofy Print Underwear]]: The underwear options include heart and polka-dot boxers.

* [[Heel Face Turn]]: {{spoiler|Julius is a former Vice King, and owes Benjamin King a favor or two. King prefers to avoid killing unless he has to. He ultimately helps you dismantle his own gang when his lieutenants turn against him.}}

* [[Insistent Terminology]]: It's not The Los Carnales, it's just The Carnales.
