No, EA has more issues with their companies than just for good game only, recently games from EA is more crappier than in last 8 years, such as NFS, NBA Street, NFL Street, Madden and other games, Skate is alright to me but not perfect, neither is TH Proving Ground. In numerous of gamer's opinion that Madden and Nascar are used to best in 90's and early 2000's since EA is starting more crappier now.
If EA buys Take-Two then it wouldn't make GTA better, it's just same or more crappier, EA is just like MS about monopoly and cares about share, even doesn't care about game industries, EA based games are run so more crappier on PS3 because of developers don't know how to rewrite into cell processor but they used Xbox 360 based game to port on PS3 and gamers are notice about bug issues, that make PS3 looks bad, such as Skate has issues on PS3 version but nothing on Xbox 360 version. EA is seriously needed to improve the QA for future games and listen to gamer's complaint.
Hate to say, you really can't make GTA to be 100% identified as Saints Row, I rather to see difference than just similar, even GTA series had received excellent reviews, I'm applauding at Take-Two for improve of GTA since last 7 years ago when GTA 3 came out in 2001, that's far improved than original GTA. Both of GTA and Saints Row are supposed to be difference, I can careless if GTA don't offers custom appearance but it's still excellent without like that, more higher than Saints Row, GTA IV would receive about over 9.0 on IGN or Gamespot after release on April 29.
