One thing I hate about GTA is that if you take a car out of a garage and wreck it it that's it it's gone, whereas Saints Row gives not a **** about realism and just lets you customize cars without any penalty for getting in an awesome wreck. My bright orange, kitted out minivan with spinners is one of my favorite things ever, and let's not even mention the amazing Akira bike.
The thing that really sets Saints Row apart from GTA is that Saints Row has no illusions about being great, it just wants to be the most fun you've ever had.

I feel like the SR design sessions must have just been people rambling excitedly about things that would be cool to do. Then they implement things in a hurry and come up with more crazy ideas. Not the most well designed games, but ****ing around was fun. In GTA, I get my fill of ****ing around after about 15 minutes. In Saint's Row, I play for 3-5 hours at a time and forget to eat/go to the bathroom.

Pretty much.. I want solid gameplay. A good story, music, graphics is all secondary to me.
If the story sucks I can ignore it.
If the music sucks I play my own.
If the graphics suck I don't care because I grew up with atari and sega master system.
Gimmie those solid mechanics, balance, and difficulty without tedium.

I'm mostly the same. Although some games that I like a lot have a lot of mechanical problems, like bad controls, poor balance, crazy difficulty spikes, etc. I'm willing to forgive quite a bit if I like something else about the game strongly enough.

Got rid of my old 486 computer years ago, but I still have the diskettes for Frontier Elite III lying around. Couldn't get rid of those for ridiculous nostalgic reasons.
