A great analysis video of the map development for Stilwater, showing the differences from 2003 when Saints Row was still known as Bling Bling for the
PlayStation 2
with a small vertical slice of the city, to the popular
Xbox 360
August demo three years later. As much as I loved GTA IV when it released, I remember first playing the Saints Row demo with a friend and it was my first taste of next-gen open world mayhem. And I also like that Stilwater was based on Midwestern cities like Chicago and Detroit. Now if only Volition would have ported the original to PC or remaster it for modern platforms.
