Fantastic! True sandbox game with a proper camera, controls and without an annoying 'script' to get in the way. Just great fun anyway you wanna play it. Twice the fun in Co-op

The build of the game... graphics, open world, etc I give an 8. Its Good but not the best looking game with the most options out there. That aside... the gameplay is a 10! This is just a really fun game to play! I haven't been so addicted to a game since my days with Oblivion. Get this game.

Very well put together and fun game. The aiming takes some time to get used to which puts some people off, but once you learn how to use it you can pull off some amazing feats.

An Immersive experience that is easy to get lost in. Part game, part playground and all enjoyable.

While I don't think any game out for the 360 is yet worthy of the coveted "10", I must say that this game is a solid 9. It takes what other sandbox games have offered and runs, jumps and drives with it. The thing I never liked about GTA was the loose controls and general feeling that you were moving in slow motion. CD eliminates that feeling. Anytime you can kick someone off a skyscraper, jump after him all the while pumping bullets into him as he plummets you've got to be having a good time. On top of all of this? You get the HALO3 beta. Very nice package indeed. Good job guys.… Expand

The mark I have given this game is based on the several hours I have played it so far on its UK release date, today. I have undertaken solo and co-op (more fun!) modes and can say that Gears of War won't be back in my 360 for at least a few days. The graphics aren't 'gears' good, but they are pretty special, but it is the free roaming gameplay which makes this title rock the Kasbah! Do what you want when you want, team up with another player (or even better, a friend, and the fun is doubled. Worth at least a rental, and definately worth buying if you liked saints row or GTA. Currently has Halo3 beta invite bundled too, so go for it. You wont regret it, thats what ebay is for!… Expand

Crackdown is an extremely fun and addictive game. I haven't played anything else basically since I got it. It sucks that stupid civilians who get in they line of fire and killed actually hurt your physical attribute stats, but ehh. It's still fun as hell and everyone should go out and buy it!

This game is freakin awesome! It has all the freedom that I expected out of it. If I choose between Crackdown and Dead rising, Crackdown would be my #1 choice.

Awesome!

People have criticized Crackdown for being too short. They say it only takes 6 hours or so to "complete" the game. Those people are muppets. What they mean is it takes about that amount of time to kill all the gang bosses if you focus on doing that at the exclusion of all the other parts of the game. However, there's so much more to the game than just this. Gary Penn from Denki used to write in Edge about how games should be "toysets", with each toy being fun in its own right. Nowhere is the realization of this vision more evident than in Crackdown. He and long-time collaborator Dave Jones have worked with the Real time Worlds team to produce a truly entertaining box of toys. It's true that one of the toys, the gang-boss-fighting toy, doesn't take long to see the end of. But there is also a free running platform game toy, a driving game toy, a stunt car toy and many others. All of the toys are a lot of fun to play with. The game is probably the current pinnacle of the sandbox genre. Largely direction less, the main motivation for play are the achievements. They encourage you to explore the world fully and to play with all the toys. It wouldn't work if each toy wasn't fun but it is. It works beautifully. I don't know how many hours I've played it now but it must be a lot and I'm still having fun finding new things. Even the bugs are fun. If I had to criticize, I'd say the driving doesn't really become fun until you've put some time into upgrading your driving skill. Also, the multiplayer seems a bit of an afterthought, relying mostly on you making your own games if you're going to play it for more than an hour or so. Overall though, this is a wonderful example of how to provide a playground for players. As a truly 3D, toy-filled open world, it is peerless.… Expand

Absolutely awesome in almost every conceivable way.

Extremely addictive and the most fun I had with a game for a very long time.

Fabulous game that you will keep coming back to time and again. Only made better with the addition of the downloadable content. Ace!

Brilliant game. Hours of fun and hard earned game achievements make this a long lasting, action packed, instant classic.

Very underrated game. Wont win any awards in the story or narrative department but just a sheer joy to play. A unique but well executed visual style, varied game play, and some really fun achievements to earn. This should be in every 360 owner's collection.

Amazing fun to be had here. No real story to speak of, but for those who play GTA just for fooling around this is right up your alley. I don't know how I can go back to GTA with out the ability to jump across city streets.

Best game so far!!!

Ok this game is awesome. Its a definite must buy. Its my favorite game i got. Its like saints row on crack but better. You get to upgrade and as you upgrade you obviously get stronger,jump higher farther,shoot better,better driving/handling etc. As you get you driving up you can transform as i call it the agency vehicles into bigger stronger and must faster vehicles. There all tons of guns and all awesome. The explosions are really cool and you can climb huge buildings and stuff its awesome. Once you get about 30 min into the game and understand it you dont wanna quit its probably more addicting than oblivion and that was very addicting. But the bad part is that you can probably beat it in about 8 hours or less if you just sit there killing bosses so just mix it in with messing around thats what i do. I have been messing around driving and killing bad guys for the past 2 days now and its still not boring. And when i see a main boss i kill him or at least try and die. This game is very very very fun oh and you can take anything and use it as a weapon. So basicly its a must buy game trust me its very good. And the graphics are good to and for all this i give it a 10 out of 10. Great game!!!!!!… Expand

One of my favourite xbox 360 titles yet. Fantastic co-op mode which is great with a mate. Hours of fun. One of the best parts is the free-roaming. Driving cars and collecting agility orbs can keep you occupied for hours.

I downloaded the demo the first day it came out, not really thinking it was gonna be anything more than another crap GTA clone...boy was I wrong, These talented game designers have put together a title which "borrows" from the grand theft genre, but has enough of its own originality to really make you feel like youre playing a much different game. The physics engine is so much fun to just mess around with by driving off of cliffs, vaulting off of rocks at high speeds...etc. All in all this is a game I most certainly reccomend. Did I mention that all of my thoughts on this game are being based on the FREE DEMO? I can't imagine what the full version is going to be like.… Expand

Takes the parts of GTA that I loved, the satisfaction of free-roaming in a world that feels completely alive, and puts that as it's core and wraps it up in a great 'rewards' system of skill orbs and gets topped off with solid controls for fighting and driving.

I wasn't too sure about this game at first, but i'm glad I got it. Crackdown is a different kind of game. To me it feels like GTA in some ways, but when you start jumping over buildings, and get hooked on finding the orbs, it feels like a platformer. The action gets kind of crazy and sometimes you may feel like you've stepped into a situation you can't handle, but in reality you can. There's too much to say about this game, but the main point is the game is good… Expand

This games offers an experience I never expected, especially playing co-op with friends. It totally blows away Saints Row and gives GTA a serious run for its money. Its game play is so compelling, you

Crackdown is one of the most fun games ever made. But what it makes up for in pure fun, it loses in length, story, and depth. Its lacking a storyline of any kind, there are no truley fun side missions, and the whole game can be beaten in a few days. All of this said, its still a blast to play!

This is such a bizzare yet additively fun blend of several genres. It has the regenerating health and easily throwable grenades of Halo, the expansive city of GTA, and crazy superhero powers. The action is hard and heavy. Its only bad faults are an questionable camera at times, and the lack of side missions or variety. Collecting orbs is incredibly addictive though, it puts the "Crack" in Crackdown! The fact that this game includes an invite to the beta of the most anticipated game of 2007 (Um, Halo 3!) is just icing on the cake!… Expand

This really kept my attention more than most games, but something I can't quite pinpoint kept it from being a 10. It's still a really good game, though.

For me this has been the most addictive game on the 360. It basically is a next gen grand theft auto, but with a futuristic theme. It will take about 10 hrs to get through the main missions, and 30+ more with the side missions. I do wish there was more content, but that's a compliment. It's an outstanding game.

The game may lack depth and variety;, however, building up your agent's abilities to the point where he can throw cars and leap from rooftop to rooftop, all while making head-shots with a pistol, quickly become addicting. The game also has a nice soundtrack and a rather large city to explore.

Incredibly fun game that gives as much joy in exploring its environment as in finishing the missions. I

GTA meets Spiderman. This is one of the best games on the 360. You get into it far quicker, is more tactical and yet remains quick and explosive through out. Over very quickly though but Co-op and tougher difficulties as well as hidden extras will keep you going for days.

Very Very Very Fun game!! It is a wide open game from the get go. I know this might sound shallow but there are no stories and no cut scenes. Just get your car and your guns and go out there and kick some but. Love the 3 different nationalities and how detailed they were with the language and everything. Just so much fun! I just loved being able to jump from one place to another. I never play games twice but this is the type of game that I would gladly start again. I hope there is a sequel.… Expand

This is what GTA4 should have been. The pacing of the game is great and it's easy to get around the city, even on foot. The RPG style elements force you to play the game differently then i normally would which keep the action going. Boss fights however are fairly easy (just knock them down and keep kicking them) and boring. I went out of my way to rate this game better then gta4.

When I first got Crackdown I was just getting it because of the Halo 3 beta, but once I played it I realized that it is probably my favorite game for the 360 since Oblivion!

Don't disregard this because its a 10. No game is perfect. No game. However, to me this is what a game should be, fun. Fun that last's. Grand Theft Auto with superhuman controls, set in the future. What else is there to say? BIG explosions, excellent draw-in distance. You can be at the top of a building and see cars all the way across the entire map. Don't believe me? Then download the demo. Thats it.… Expand

This game is great fun when I first got it I thought it was alright but when I started leveling up especially on strength and agility it was so much fun bashing people on the head with cars and jumping from building to building collecting orbs. Lets see the PS3 top this game, but we won't .

Personally when I first heard of this game I thought ok another GTA clone except with the Halo 3 beta but I was wrong this game is incredible.

It's truly awesome. The funnest time I've had playing a game maybe ever. The coop feature really puts it over the top, playing the game with another person increases it's fun exponentially. Imagine a game where you're so high on top of a building that you're actually nervous about falling! The level of freedom is astounding and I love the futuristic atmosphere. My only complaint is that it needs more replay value, however it's greatness more than compensates for it's weaknesses.… Expand

It was really fun and the rocket launchers and grenades rocked :D i liked the cars once u got to 4 star driving skill and could climb walls and it was fun killing wang and beating the game, I also liked the odd twist at the end after you beat it.

Great game. Nice graphics, loads of fun. It's basically GTA meets Deus Ex. Lots of replay value and lots to do in between missions. I little lacking in the story department, but gameplay is fantastic. Highly recommended.

This game is a mix of GTA3 and Oni anyone that gives this game a low score and claims that the game is short is a moron and has ZERO understanding of free roaming GTA type games. the game is NOT short, just today played it for 2 hours straight and i didint complete a single objective in the game, i just jumped around from rooftops ,shooting random people,blowing stuff up, the game is totally open. thers no story,no stupid cut scenes that FORCED on you, this game is like a very tasty candy bar, you cant just waste it by completing it at once. the only negative thing is that thers no bikes,helicopters or boats in this game.… Expand

I really like this game. I like the freedom. The freedom to car jack anyone to murder citizens and criminals alike, i do like it. Although, it's not all good. Sometimes it's difficult to get to the places you need to be and i found it difficult using the map as well. But all in all, i reccomend this greatly because these are only small problems and easy to live with so i highly reccomend this......… Expand

My favourite game on the Xbox 360. Love the graphics, the setting, the gameplay, and all the fun stuff you can do. You are a cyborg supercop with free rein of a futuristic city in which you can climb over pretty much everything whilst killing gangstas. Plus you can play it through in a weekend if you want to, and in full co-op. What's not to like?
