14. I was very tempted to get SR2

But then I read that they did an awful job porting the game to the PC, and that you need a good rig just to get the game running smoothly. Apparently they didn't bother to adjust the game to running on PCs. And since my PC is four years old I didn't want to risk having a game that it cannot run. It really annoys me when they put out lazy ports for the PC.

Do you have it on PC, and if yes what's your experience running it?

I've never played a Saint's Row game, but the concept appeals to me. Also I haven't played a new GTA game since San Andreas, so I hoped that SR would fill the gap. I actually have a copy of GTA IV that I got for my birthday, but I have yet to install it, since I don't really want to bother with Games For Windows Live, Rockstar Social Club and all the DRM they piled on.
