Absolute Classic If you haven't already gotten this, then kick yourself. I did, after only got this recently after years of owning a 360.
Everything's just good plain fun. Shooting? Fun. Blowing things up? Fun. Kicking the living x out of crooks? Fun. Jumping across rooftops? I almost lost my lunch. Driving around? Supercar, are you kidding me?
Very Good Game This is a very fun sandbox game. The Co-op is excellent. The controls are very well designed and the agility challenges are especially good.
A pleasant surprise! I never considered GTA-like games good, except for GTA itself. When I ordered Crackdown, I did it only to fill my package with something more. This game turned out to be a very nice surprise, considering the price and the quality. Nice game, one of the best playgrounds I might say!!! An Xbox360 must-buy!!
Thanks play-asia!!
Brilliant This game is very versiltile, unique in the fact you can go anywhere, great for playing with friends online. much fun to be had, highly reccomended.
Plain Fun There is not too much about this game, since there since is a DEMO avaiableon XBOX Live,
but nevertheless I shall give a small comment about CD.
The graphics are very impressive!!!
You can see the whole world from the top floor of the agency tower, you can even see cars driving around in the distance... and no loading times or choppy gameplay during the play. The explosives are impressive too ( unfortunately there were no rocket launcher avaiable during the demo play... )
The game has funny achievements as well! And the new DL content is also recommendable!
Dont think twice, sooner or later you are going to buy this game anyways!
Must buy!
Language Fixed Turns out, the game automatically sets the UI to CHINESE if the console LOCALE (note, NOT language) is set to "China". Why it would assume all people in China reads Chinese, I have no clue. By selecting a different location via the "Initial Setup" other than China (in my case, closest is HK), the menus in Crackdown came up in english. I am happy again. :-p
Language Info Wrong I just got the Asia Version of Crackdown, thinking that it would be bilingual, but beware: MENUS/UI are in CHINESE, audio is ENGLISH. So if you do not understand CHINESE, you will find it very frustrating playing this game.
Better than GTA Never been a massive fan of GTA so when people compared the two I was a bit dubious about getting it. However I'm glad I did as you have a massive ammount of freedom in game to go almost anywhere you like and once you get your skills up it gets even better.
Crackdown Tae Lee, global product manager for Microsoft said recently that "Crackdown is an action-driving hybrid conceptualised by creator Davod Jones, whom he might be aware was responsible for such franchises such as Grand Theft Auto (GTA)." When you start Crackdown, the similarity between Jones' prior and current work immediately become obvious. A living, breathing city to freely explore? Check. A protagonist whose skills get increasingly robust the more you employ them? Check. Cool vehicles to drive? Car-jacking? Police opening fire should you choose to slaughter bystanders? Checkmate.
Tae proceeded to elaborate on how Crackdown takes the "go anywhere, do anything" formula of GTA one step further. As a genetically enhanced super-soldier produced by The Agency (think CIA or FBI), you are tasked with freeing the vast reaches of Pacific City from 21 criminal kingpins, the sequence of which is completely up to you. "Truly free-form," said Tae.
The game's non-linear approach raised questions about its narrative flow; questions Tae tactfully evaded. In time to come, I would discover Crackdown to be devoid of any compelling storyline the one factor many might argue to be the driving force behind GTA. Drop the GTA expectations, however, and you will find in Crackdown a delightful platform action title, more akin to a modern 3D Mario game.
Excellent! A very fun gta-like, beautiful and speed.
You also must know that it is completely region free, i've got a pal console (france) and it perfectly works! And there is the french language too!
Enormous that game! ;)
great game but no gta great game but i dont think its as good as grand theft auto, but its a good way to kill time before GTA 4 comes round, also game is region free and this asia version works on my PAL console!
Decent Good game, but really too short. Once you take out the gangs there's nothing to do besides collect orbs. With more to do, some sort of story, and more fleshed out characters, this game could have been great. All of the bosses are essentially the same, and all of them are pretty easy to kill. As it is it is a fun game, but you will be finished just as you think it should be getting interesting.
Crackdown creates an exciting open world Crackdown creates an exciting open world and gives you a lot of interesting abilities, but there isn't enough main-game content to truly take advantage of the game's strengths.
The Good: Great-looking city; exciting abilities that get better as you play; satisfying explosions.
The Bad: Driving is lame until you max out your skills; co-op feels half baked; not enough content to keep you busy for long.
region free Great game
This game is really exciting and if you like third person action shooters and action games, this game is definately for you. I highly recommend this game!
