10 Reasons to Play Crackdown

[Webb]

IGN now have a preview up on Crackdown and it makes an interesting read :)

Oh and BTW, Halo 3 Beta isn't one of them, so make it 11 ;)

Dang, that looks pretty cool. I really like games with a solid Co-op experience, it makes it a great bonding tool for my son and I. He lives 3000+ miles away with his mom :(.

Oof...it just occurred to me how much work it would be to write an achievement guide for this puppy. Imagine trying to describe the location of 700-1000 orbs in an open environment....wow. I volunteer to NOT write that one. :woop:

I must say the more i read about this game the more i can't wait to play it. Halo 3 beta is definately a bonus but this game should sell all on it's own merits.

The co-op will be a great feature too especially if you have a friend over. Plus that safe house system sounds great. There is alot of cool features coming with this game i just hope they don't dissapoint in the end.

This game looks really good. I never got into the GTA stuff, mostly because I'm a huge comic book nerd and always root for the good guys (ok, Ignore Deadpool in my avatar, he kills a lot of people, but he's heading on the right path now... maybe...), but this one looks more my kind "open-world" kind of game.

I can't wait to play this game! With every new bit of info that comes out about this game it just keeps sounding like a must buy! I'm really glad that it comes with the Halo 3 beta, but I agree that this game won't need that bundled with it to sell like crazy!

Ha, yeah.. they couldn't think of something to get that last 100? Even just making some existing goals worth a bit more would have worked.

Maybe they're already planning on an expansion where another 100 points can be had. So that could be a reason to play it! (This is just wishful thinking of course.)

I'm sure it will turn out to be another G.R.A.W where they added some things to it later on that made it finally equal the normal 1,000 gs. You know there has to be some downloadable content how else would they milk some more cash out of us. lol :p

[Shaaady Souljah]

definitely going to have updates later. like an expansion pack or something for $5 or $10.

i am not as psyched as most of you to play it, but i will definitely try it out. PLUS, Halo!!!

Did anyone read the October 05' issue of Game Informer? That was the first real glimpse of what this game could offer.

I swear somewhere in that article they had talked about secret achievements. Not the kind we know now, where they don't identify what they are. I thought they were talking about some sort of competitive leaderboard achievements. Say we look at the leaderboards and DaWebbmeister has fallen off of a building to his death from 49 stories high, and is in 1st place in that catagory. So I get on and scale a taller building say 55 stories and fall to my death. BAM, achievement unlocked. Unless I was drunk when I read that article I thought they said they were going to block off some achievements for competitive purposes that you could use the leaderboard system as a starting point.

Anyone read that, anyone think I'm full of...uh...stuff?

[Fonkey Monkey]

No i remember that article, thats my favorite magazine!
Yes, i think your right, so theres prolly gonna be like leader boards in game. pitty theres no acehivements though :(

[killerharu45]

i might rent this game. but probably wont buy it. doesnt look that great. but, of course, I may be wrong
