and Saints Row 2 ended up accidentally abandoned. Around the same time, I met a certain friend who started inviting me to lots of Left 4 Dead. till I got to a mission that required a lot of driving, and got stuck slightly. I know I’m not the best driver in games, but I can usually keep the car in my own lane! With the gamepad, I made some progress. While running around with my purple-haired freak was passable, driving without the gamepad consisted of crashing left and right across the road with virtually no forward progress.

I grabbed Saints Row 2 for the PC almost two years ago, and quickly found a gamepad essential. I came across IdolNinja’s Gentlemen of the Row mod for Saints Row 2 by chance, while reading the comments on the end of an article for the latest installment in the Saints Row series, Saints Row: The Third.
