| | | | | | Crackdown pushes the action-driving hybrid genre into the next generation with the first ever truly 3-D playground. Gamers will level up their Agent's strength, agility, firearms, explosives, and driving skills while scaling the fully vertical world. Enforce justice by any means necessary in Pacific City, a crime-ridden urban center primed to explode and ready for you to explore. Enter an interactive world where anything can be used as a weapon as you clean up the streets the only way you know how. Your way. Developed by Scotland's Real Time Worlds exclusively for Microsoft Game Studios and the Xbox 360 console, Crackdown is the brainchild of Dave Jones, the creative genius behind many innovative game titles such as Grand Theft Auto and Lemmings.
Harnessing the amazing power of Xbox 360, Crackdown players enforce justice against the backdrop of a crime-ridden metropolis that is massive in scale and meticulous in detail. The game's unique presentation employs a highly stylized rendering technique that turns it into a living, breathing graphical novel. You play the role of an enforcer for the city's "Agency," a law enforcement entity looking to take back neighborhoods and lives from three large crime syndicates. You are part of the new generation of crime fighters- an entirely new breed of genetically superior super-cops, designed to use the enemies' tactics against them. | | | | | |

| This game was a great surpise last year. There were many hours of my life sucked away playing coop. The sounds in this game were incredible. If you were up high on the agency keep you heard nothing but the wind blowing. If you played coop and a buddy blew up something across town you could hear the low boom rumble in the background.
Hopefully when Realtime Worlds finishes their latest project APB they might make a Crackdown 2. | | |

| An unexpected surprise This was an awesome game that was (for once) actually underhyped, in my opinion. The graphics and sounds weren't amazing or anything, but the game was fantastic. Well worth it.... I hope they do a Crackdown 2. | | | | | | Member reviews | | Graphics | | 2.5 | | Sound | | 3.0 | | Replay value | | 1.5 | | Gameplay & Controls | | 2.0 | | Single Player | | 2.0 | | Multiplayer | | 4.0 | | Overall | | 2.5 | |

| Good, fun game overall. Not game of the year material by any means, but definately not bad either.
My only real beef with this game wa the repetitive nature of the missions. They all just boiled down to shooting the piss out of the boss of different gangs. Aside from that, no real complaints. | | | | | | Member reviews | | Graphics | | 4.5 | | Sound | | 4.5 | | Replay value | | 4.5 | | Gameplay & Controls | | 4.0 | | Single Player | | 4.5 | | Multiplayer | | 4.5 | | Overall | | 4.5 | |

| I love the game. The "sandbox" aspect of it was great, better than any GTA game IMO. Loved the gang leaders that you had to beat, loved how you had to level up your player as you went along and to see how he changed was great. Had many Oh! moments like climbing to the top of the agency tower for the first time and then looking down at the city. Online coop is where it is at, just free roaming, time trials, whatever. Cant remember how much time I wasted looking for those damn obs! My only gripe would be the driving. Didnt care too much for the controls of it for some reason.
Thumbs up for me! | | | | | | Member reviews | | Graphics | | 5.0 | | Sound | | 4.5 | | Replay value | | 4.0 | | Gameplay & Controls | | 4.5 | | Single Player | | 5.0 | | Multiplayer | | 3.0 | | Overall | | 4.0 | |

| Great Game.., A really good game. Hard enough to say but its got a high rate in number of sold in the US. It had the Halo 3 beta in it which was pretty cool but thats not what i bought it for, I bought it for the Single Player, and wow was right! It was a nice game with ok graphics. I bow down to you, single player!  | | |  | | Rating Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
