Way of the Samurai or Saints Row 2?

I've discontinued my Nehrim LP, and someone else is going to do an IW playthrough, so I'm thinking about a new game to focus on.


Way of the Samurai, and then its sequel (the original is pretty short, even with the multiple paths), or Saints Row 2? Which would you rather see?



Warning: Even with me only having two LPs, I'm not going to be able to update every other day or something. There's going to be awhile between them.


Edit: Or I could do that idea about playing through the quest-lines of various Morrowind mods.

Way of the Samurai. The game is very good for the Codex "the power is yours" LP democratic choice.

Way of the Samurai. Multiple paths, not too long, good gameplay.

While SR2 is alright to screw around with for a little bit, it's not a very good LP game.

Way of the Samurai, just recently played it myself. More C&C than all Bioware games combined.

I don't know about WotS, but SR2 doesn't seem a good choice for a screenshot-based LP. Unless You plan on doing it SR2 youtube-y, I say WotS.

Sword of the Samurai instead. Lead your clan to the 300 year shogunate!

Another vote for WotS. Saint's Row 2 is fucking great, but as others have set it's too expansive and samey for an LP.

I like Saints Row 2 well enough, it wasn't great but pretty good, but I don't see how it makes for LP material. So Way of the Samurai.

So how did people get SR2 running properly anyway? I have a good pc but i can't go above the lowest detail setting and then I still get lousy fps. And driving makes the camera jump all over the place.

No tweaking needed on my side, it ran on maximum settings just fine. But it is a console port.
