Well here we go one last time, let's return to Stilwater and join the Saints in the last piece of DLC for Saints Row 2, Corporate Warfare.

So the story in this DLC is you and the Saints team up with Ultor executive Eric Gryphon to strike back at former Saints member Dex, who tried to kill you at the end of Saints Row 2.

Pretty simple story, but how much story can you stuff into only three missions.

These missions have a variety to them admittedly. You'll be piloting a helicopter, sniping mimes and getting gang attacked by a bunch of ninjas during your time here. As Saints Row as you can get.

The DLC does the usual and adds more clothing items and vehicles, but I was more interested in the story, especially since spoilers it never goes anywhere.

By the end of the story here Dex has escaped and your character swears to find him and get revenge on him, but this plotline is never continued in the following games.

Which is something I'll talk about more when I get to those games, but I'll just state my disappointment here. I liked the idea of Dex as a villain and trying to take him down since he was there at the beginning and helped our character when we first joined the Saints but.... eh moving on.

There's something about this DLC that irritates me more than the previous one, is it the story? More than likely but the vehicles you get are no better than the previous DLC, nothing here truly stands out to me.

In Ultor Exposed you rode around killing people with a porn star in a new badass car. That was memorable for better or worse.

I think the missions were better in the previous DLC
I dunno this was different this time, but I hate how short and unfulfilling these DLC's are. Maybe I've been spoiled but these just don't cut it, and yeah this one is cheaper than before but seven dollars is still pretty pricey for only three missions, and a handful of vehicles and clothing.


But that's really all I can say there's barely any other content here! The missions are pretty fun admittedly, I do enjoy shooting mimes and the performance from the characters are fine, your character is still homicidal and amazing and hell even Pierce gets to make an appearance.

These DLC's are not worth their price they are fine little additions to Saints Row 2, but I think they should've been in the game from the beginning or hell maybe even free updates then I would've been praising these here, or hell three dollars a piece would've been great for the content you get here.

As it stands Saints Row 2: Corporate Warfare receives No Seal

Why do I do this to myself?
This will be the last time I return to Saints Row 2, I do love the base game but these DLCs have left a bad taste in my mouth and I don't plan on getting to the third game any time soon.
