With other third-person-sandbox style games available like Grand Theft Auto IV, Red Dead Redemption, or Fallout: New Vegas, is there a reason to pick-up an older game like Crackdown (2007)? Although the first Crackdown is a bit dated, the game has its...

Theres been a lot made of Crackdown prior to its release, and not because of its own strengths but rather because of a certain golden ticket beta invitation that can be found beneath the games instruction manual. Generally speaking, a publisher bun...

From the moment I heard that Grand Theft Auto creator David Jones would be the brains behind the free-form urban action game, Crackdown, it was safe to be excited about the prospect of a video game world that would apparently offer the first “truly...
It looks great!, Special abilities are great fun, Loads to do!, Coop mode, Halo 3 beta invite included!...
Repetitive main missions, Storyline is lame, Autoaim is frustrating.
If you do play the Crackdown and wonder, like I did, ‘What the hell am I supposed to be doing apart from killing dozens of bad guys?’ then explore the city and learn to experiment. Work on improving your skills and you’ll see how Crackdo...

I think we all owe crackdown an apology.First of all it was branded a simple GTA clone, albeit one with interesting cel-shaded graphics. Then it was regarded as the sort of lightweight effort that needed a bundled entry to a Halo 3 beta to make s...

Crackdown on the surface already looks a very appetising piece; it certainly has the looks with beautiful artwork, perfectly complimenting the action. Everything comes with that extra thick black border around it, while still no where near as obviousl...

Last October, I got a special sneak peek at Crackdown (touted as the newest sandbox shooter from developer Dave Jones Realtime Worlds), but was not terribly impressed. From what I played at the hands-on event, all the elements were in place, but the...
Cool, quasi-cel-shaded art style; tons of character progression; a satisfyingly vast array of explosives.
Weird selection of music tracks when driving; limited multiplayer longevity; single-player gets repetitive.

As only a minor fan of the Grand Theft Auto series, I was a little bit apprehensive about Crackdown being possibly another GTA clone. The game immediately struck me as a cross between "Demolition Man" and "Judge Dread". Although there were no flying s...
You can fly (almost), You can pick up cars and throw them at people, Online coop is fun, Climbing skyscrapers is fun, If you can see it, and jump high enough, you can go there (no artificial boundaries), FX sound is great with 5.1 surround, Graphics are i...
No futuristic super weapons, Driving is not really all that fun in this one, Camera angles were a little wonky close up, No deathmatch mode, Ending scene is a little bit silly (no closure), The Ugly, General lack of music soundtrack outside of vehicles...

Crackdown isnt perfect, but its damn addictive in a way that not many games are (and its got online co-op). Whether youre scaling skyscrapers to nab those elusive orbs or kicking thugs halfway across town, it never gets old despite its lack of stor...
