Crackdown is a great open world action game, but has a few weak points that really bring it down.
In Crackdown you pick between a bunch of agents to pl job is simple. There are 21 gang lords spilt in between 3 gangs, and you have to hunt tem down and kill them.
In Crackdown, you basically run and shoot. You have a few skills which you can level up, which increase your driving skills, or athletic skills. If you increase your athletic skills, you can jump super high and run faster.
Crackdown is really basic. There are only really a few ways you can take out yor targets, because most of the time, you just have to run in a building or a tower, or stadium, and shoot everything that moves. It is fun a first, but can get really boring. I could not find many other ways to do the mission different, because, most of the gang lords you hunt down, that is the only thing you can do. Some are in places where they allow you to get crafty with your ways of killing them.
The graphics in Crackdown are really good looking. Everything is cell shaded, but has all the real textures that and ordinary game has. Some times textures won't load and things far off in the distance, so it will look really ugly. But over all the graphics are really good.
The sound in Crackdown is okay. The music in the game is not my favorite, but other people may like it. The voices acting is not that great, and some times guys will repeat things over and over again, and it will get really annoying.
There is a co op in Crackdown, but besides that, there is no multi player.
Over all, Crackdown is a great open world action game, that will keep you entertained for about 10 hours, but if you want achievements, or just go and play n the huge environment, then you should give Crackdown a try. Not to mention, the game is really cheap now.
