Already available on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 since last October 17, Saints Row 2 will land on PC. If it is not expected before next February 2 in Europe, the title of Volition / THQ should come on January 5 among all North American retailers.
The forums have also revealed that Saints Row 2 will use Steam for the game's DRM to authenticate the game. Volition's community manager states, " Essentially, Steam will be a verification system for the retail version. Steam will also have an offer to digitally download SR2 to a player's system if they don't want to leave the confines of their house. If you have a retail version, Steam is only going to verify that you have a real copy of the game when you are first installing and launching the game. We're trying to use a very low impact DRM here, since we've seen some of the headaches faced by other major game releases in recent months."

That required a configuration that will not be as happy, but, like that applied for Grand Theft Auto IV, insists much on the power needed to run things properly.
