Crackdown 2

Crackdown 2 'Deluge Pack' Unleashing The Freak Horde Later This Month
Written Tuesday, November 02, 2010 By Richard Walker
View author's profile

Crackdown 2's second add-on pack, entitled 'Deluge', is a new co-op multiplayer mode in which up to four players band together on the streets of Pacific City to tackle waves of increasingly difficult Freaks. But if that doesn't chaotic enough for you, the Deluge Pack also chucks in the competitive 'Capture the Orb' game type, which is exactly what it sounds like: a Crackdown twist on Capture the Flag.

The Deluge Pack will be available as both a trial and premium version like the Toy Box DLC before it, offering players a free version of the add-on, which includes the full 16-player Capture the Orb mode for multiplayer and a single-player only sample version of the Deluge co-op mode.

If you want the full Deluge experience however, complete with new achievements and Avatar awards, it'll cost you 560 Microsoft Points. Crackdown 2 Deluge Pack will be available from the Xbox Live Marketplace on November 16th.

It's a shame I stopped playing Crackdown 2 ages ago, this sounds mildly interesting

Lets hope the new achievements are not as annoying as the ones in the last DLC pack. This game was quite a letdown.

A let down? Well, I know a lot of people thought it was, but I loved the game. It was just as good as the first and had some great improvements such as more easily being able to get the orbs. Sure, it was in the same city and was mostly the same, but in my opinion it didn't need to change much. Crackdown 2 has all of the things that made the first game great and more :)

@7, 8 months? It was announced at E3 2009 and released over a year later. Given the fact that the city was basically the same, just with a new skin applied over there should have been considerable more improvement with the year they had. Don't get me wrong, I find the game to be mindless fun and really have gotten my $60 out of it, but it could have been better.

I wish other developers would follow Crackdowns DLC model of low prices AND a free version of the DLC.

I don't think Crackdown 2 is terrible, but definitely not worth $60 price tag it came out with. Now for $30 that would be a good deal. Same shit happened with ODST, which I bought and felt like a retard after beating 6 hours long campaign and playing few rounds in half assed no matchmaking firefight^^ Didn't make same msitake with Crackdown2!!

Don't even have this game but these DLC's look a bit overpriced BUT since the game itself is about $30 now it's not too bad of a deal even with the DLCs. Now i just need to find some of my friends to start playing it with Black Ops coming out...

This game was not worth £40 at all, 6hrs for all main and 2nd objectives? made me lol, then rage coz I'd just spent £40 on what pretty much a failed clone of the first. And if they think orbs count as the main game then they can blow me.
I think the £8 trade-in value says it all tbh...

@ 21 - B/c it's fun. Granted some games just don't feel right with it but I find it a much better solution than tacking on a competetive multiplayer which requires much more time and effort to format and satisfy groups en masse. I've had more than enough fun fighting waves of enemies with buddies on Gears, Halo, L4D and Transformers and look forward to many more titles offering this option.
Also "every" game is a bit of an exaggeration, wouldn't you think?
Modern Lagfare hasn't really picked up on that yet, has it? Neither has BFBC if I'm not mistaken and those are the 2 biggest fanboy titles released. No, fanboy is not being used as an insult btw before all the wishy washers start flailing and crying.

But logically: Fun = Sales. Sales = Profit.

@ #22: Yeah I would much rather play a co-op Horde mode with friends than some tired played-out competitive MP mode *coughHalocough*. It's just that this whole Horde mode craze was more fun when it was still new and fresh, but now that so many (yes of course the "every" was an exaggeration) multiplayer games feel like they have to add their own version of it now, it's starting to lose its luster and feel just tacked-on. And I noticed that even though you mentioned MW2 and BFBC, you conveniently left out WaW, which has one of the most popular Horde modes out there now, which not surprisingly is also appearing once again in Treyarch's next CoD game Black Ops.

So while I do prefer playing a co-op mode like Horde over some old competitive multiplayer mode, I just wish that someone would come up with some way to make it fresh again or do something different with co-op that isn't just the same thing over and over again.
