Crackdown 2 Impressions
One of the best original games for the Xbox 360 was Crackdown. This was the open world game where you played as a super human cop cleaning up the city and hunting down orbs. Last week the highly anticipated sequel came out to mixed reviews.
I think that most people look back at Crackdown through rose colored glasses. The original game was a ton of fun co-op where you’d just run and jump and kill everything that moved. It was about moving from location to location killing bosses and reclaiming the islands. It was fun but by no means a AAA game.
Now that I’m playing Crackdown 2 I like the changes but I’m not expecting much out of the story line. There is now one group called Cell that you attack and they also introduced a zombie threat. I’m enjoying the game for what it is right now. I love mowing down zombies with the cars and climbing buildings looking for orbs.
It’s hard not to like Crackdown 2 because it is mindless fun. The game is very simple and occasionally you will create huge explosions by accident that are really awesome. The game is really meant to be an achievement hunters game. It’s about collecting stuff and doing crazy stuff for points. It’s just plain fun so pick it up.
