Good game, but a little repetitive

I think the game was good, but very repetitive. The bosses are not that difficult, but the graphics are great.
It is short. The voices are very good.
You have like 6 or 7 bosses and 3 gangs, you have to kill every boss and gain experience. The weapons are good, but only a few of them are really useful.

Something to do, almost

The graphics suited the game and the controls were as straight forward as any game like this. I didn't feel like the game had much of a story line and it seems like you're just thrown in and on your own. It just didn't catch me like GTA, Saint's Row, or any of the other popular shooters did. I gave it a few chances but never bothered to finish it.

Sandbox's are fun

If you like Sandbox games this is a game for you. If you don't, well, you should not buy it. Crackdown was built on the Halo engine (Havok). There are some similarities, but mostly only the life/shield bar. Overall you are a clone that gets better as you do things. To explain this... basically if you use guns your guns skill gets better, as you drive cars your cars skill gets better and so on. You are fighting crime and trying to eradicate the cities of their gangs. There are a lot of other things to do as well like rooftop races and car races. You can play co-op with a friend online through x-box live. The city is huge and you can go up the buildings as well which makes it even bigger.
Achievements are a good range from very difficult to average. I would say there is not much in the way of "easy" achievements.

Could have been better.

For a sandbox game, the landscape is awesome. Everything else seemed to lack. The same melee attack over and over, round house after roundhouse. The shiny blue, green, yellow spheres that explode and give you experience reminded me of a bad light show. Everything else about the game was fairly solid. Lack of any major story was kind of disappointing... and the online play was okay for the most part. This could have been so much better.

Best Game Ever

I got to give props to this game. If you like GTA series you will love this. This is the best game out for the 360 for its type by far. It beats Saints Row hands down. The graphics and multiplayer abilities totally rock. Even if you don't like the GTA series i highly recommend you give this one a try. There is so much to explore and do on this game. i just can't put it down.

Excellent Game

This is a must have for the 360. The campain is long but sometimes challenging. The guns are unreal and the enemys are an easy kill almost all the time. But, there is nothing to do after the game is over. You can build up all you skills but that is too easy. Overall a very good game.

Fast Pace Excitement
Posted .
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
This is a very fast paced, exciting game from beginning to end. As soon as the game is inserted into your XBox, you'll be faced with non-stop action. There really isn't much of a story behind the game other than you being a supercop sent to rid the city of gangs. However, as your skills progress thoughout the game, explosions become bigger, your aim becomes more accurate, and the fun increases.
Co-op is great, especially through Xbox Live. Weapon selection is adequate (thogh I love the rocket and grenade lauchers a lot). There are tons of bad guys to gaurantee you won't get bored. And above all, the price makes in extremely affordable. Crackdown is definitely a must buy for fans of the "sandbox" genre.
