You might want to clean up your thread a bit yeah?

Anyways I say Saints Row. MMO's always grow stale for me very quickly, that and you also will be paying more for TOR. However if you like MMOs and can see yourself putting time into it try out TOR.

It is more expensive if you assume they only buy one game for several months at best. A year of an MMO would be $180 whereas a new game every other month is $360. If you buy a $20 used game each month it is $240. So it really isn't more expensive if the MMO keeps you occupied enough not to have to get another game that often. Skip going eating out once a month and you've paid for it. There are reasons not to play MMO's, but I don't think cost actually holds up to much scrutiny.

It is certainly cheaper than Warhammer.

I would rent Saints Row, though its the sort of game I would play once and then never touch again.

TOR, on the other hand, is the first MMO I've really been interested in given that it seems to be less reliant on monopolizing your time due to the emphasis on story.

In your base, ignoring your logic.

One needs a subscription and the other doesn't. I may wait for TOR to become F2P.

Sometime after WoW goes f2p I imagine. So, I guess in 10-15 years?

Nachos will be passe once dogma is forgotten.

But seriously, you may get more out of TOR but you're going to be paying for it along the way. I think it comes with a 30 day subscription when you buy it.

I don't know anything about Saint's Row, but SWToR is the only MMO worth looking at.

Saints Row 3 is not good for my health. I laugh so much I come close to passing out, and my Mutley like wheezing also sets off the guy I'm co-oping with so he almost passes out too.

i just got it and i know what you mean.

I was driving and then this guy in a hotdog suit comes up in a scooter so i try to take him out. He speeds away and i chase him down while the intro song to venture brothers is playing on the radio.

I was laughing for an hour

Doesn't change the fact that once your original 30 days is up, you need to continue to pay to play ToR. ToR is also still glitchy as it is reported that you can pull aggro during a fight and dance in order to get the enemy to stop firing at you, it actually makes all enemies cancel attack actions that start after you start dancing.

Anyways, saying that Saint's Row is the only sandbox game worth looking at and you only pay for it once in order to play it because everything afterwards is optional.

And then after you get bored and need another game next month you'll have spent $120 ($60 + $60) instead of $75 ($60 + 15)! Gosh that subscription fee sure makes it prohibitively expensive. Unless you work one day a week at a fast food joint of course, in which case it is a joke, and certainly cheaper than buying a new game even every other month. If you want a glitch filled MMO you need to go look at WAR.
