To celebrate the release of our FREE DLC Pack, "The Unkut Pack", we thought it was time to show the lighter side of Uncle Gary. In this clip, Gary teaches all of us a few life lessons about how important it is to laugh, especially while playing Saints Row 2.
Remember that the Unkut Pack is available for download now via XBox LIVE and PlayStation Network, absolutely free. We also have two other DLC Packs available:
"Corporate Warfare", the second DLC package for Saints Row 2 is set for release on May 28th via XBox LIVE and the PlayStation Network. I've already updated the front page with a few hints towards the various content, but this time we're going over the top. To clue our community into some of the brand new content included in this package, we've brought together three members of the development team for a special developer diary.
Jim Torbit - DLC Producer
Bryan Dillow - Designer
Phillip Alexander - Programmer
Each individual reveals a different portion of the DLC which include early sneak peeks at two of the missions, customization items, and much more.
"Corporate Warfare" is priced at 560 MS Points for XBox LIVE or $7.00 on the PlayStation Network.
"Ultor Exposed" - Saints Row 2's first DLC Pack is now available to all on Xbox LIVE (800 points) and the PlayStation Network ($9.99). For those who missed it earlier, you can click here to access the full list of what you get within the DLC package.
Below, we've got our old pal Uncle Gary lending us a helping hand with a brand new "Street Lessons", titled The Women of DLC.
IGN has an exclusive interview with DLC Producer, James Torbit, about our first DLC Pack for Saints Row 2, titled "Ultor Exposed".
IGN: So, Tera Patrick?
James Torbit: Right. And we couldn't be more excited!
We thought, who would players want to team up with when they're sticking it to the man (Ultor) in the new mission arc? We could have put someone unattractive and boring in there, myself for example, but ultimately concluded that would be a poor decision. We want to reward players for playing Saints Row 2 and Ultor Exposed. It's a philosophy we've stuck to for years and we'll not be stopping that any time soon.
You can read the entire interview HERE. We'll have more details on the upcoming DLC throughout the week, so keep checking back. Hey look, we have a DLC launch trailer below, too!
In the continuation of our "...and You" series, I present to The Row a feature of Saints Row 2 which is much more over-the-top fun than actually helpful for gameplay, which was the case for our previous "...and You" segments. Known to me as the "Shock Launch", I actually discovered this during my first week of employment at Volition. I asked around our QA department and various other members of the development team to find out if it was going to be in the final version of the game, and they all responded with the same answer, "YES!".
I've been waiting patiently for someone within our community or around the internet to discover this, but I have not seen a single mention of it thus far, so I knew it was time to show off one of my personal favorite aspects of Saints Row 2, so that all of you could enjoy it as much as I have over the past few months.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask in the comment thread, but this is relatively easy to pull off. Be sure that your launching subject is in the proper launch position - as shown in the video - before shocking, or it will not work. Happy launching!
