I don’t doubt Gary Busey’s gangbanger-taunting prowess for a second (especially not after seeing his shirt), so clearly he was the right choice to promote the video game Saint’s Row 2. The game, for the uninformed, promises “a much darker and more sinister story” than its predecessor, one “that leads your character down a path of betrayal, revenge and redemption against the city that has left him for dead.” Again, this sounds like something Busey would be intimately familiar with.
