i really like the bounding/jumping/lifting/throwing powerups. i also like the way they actually fell too, not gimmicky.

I've got to say... I was very impressed with Crackdown.  That was the most fun I've had with a game of that type since Mercenaries.  At this point I'll be buying Crackdown with or without a Halo 3 Beta invite attached.  In fact, screw the Halo 3 beta... Halo's multiplayer is overrated anyway.



Um........ what?

I rlly liked it. I'm kinda amazed by how much of the stuff you can actually interact with. You can even land on/hang from the window ledges.  biggrin.gif  pretty cool stuff... just wish i was old enough to buy it  dry.gif

game keeps locking up on me.

basically i lose video and the xbox is locked.

if i reboot, the xbox barely boots, video is scrambled, audio is garbled.

screw this crap  if this game kills my 360 im gunna be peaved,

all it is is a pumped up GTA  yeahh another GTA mixed with Saints row.. with a mix of pseudo cell shading graphics.
been here done this 100 times already but they didnt thrash the xbox in the process.
i have to power down the xbox power on power down and power on and its ok.
this is scarey, i really dont need my 360 killed over yet another gta clone

the aiming system is not a far cry from saints row, which I immensly enjoyed. I prefer the free look style aiming rather than the glitchy inconsistent lock on style. everytime I am in a gun fight in gta I am scrambling to press the lockon button enough times to guide it over to the guy I need to kill.

I love this game  love.gif  
Finally multiplayer in a game like gta that allows both player to free roam. Definitely fun in every way for me. I love poping the back tires of cars and then using them to drift  tongue.gif
This is a buyer and I won't play the halo 3 beta that might come with it for a while.

Awesome game

You can tell the developers wanted to add alot of things into it to make it feel different than GTA. The targeting system has a nice touch with being able to choose what part of the body to shoot and to continuosly shoot the body in the air after its dead. Also the upgradable agency cars.

Is it possible in the demos to change your firearms at the supply stations?

get your strength all the way up so you can lift 10tons grab a semi, run, jump and throw that bitch at unsuspecting pedestrians. I have had tons of fun playing the demo, i really want more. Ive gotten 60 agility power ups and just went looking for the tallest building to climb. I am definately buying this, its sad that they wanted to use halo3 to promote it, i think it couldve done fine on its own

Stop comparing this to GTA/Saints Row/Spiderman or whatever......they dont do the game justice. Its a HULK clone  wink.gif

hulk clone my @$$, how could u say stop comparing it to GTA and Saints Row: IT'S THE SAME TYPE OF GAME!!!! Besides, like alot of people that have commented on it, who love it, give different reasons.  And like some one else said,  the demo is a blast and you want more.  You feel the need to find all of those orbs, it's a cool concept i think, i think it's a better conecpt than finding those other thigns in GTA like the pearls and what not.  

Anyone get the orb on the ferris wheel, I just got it took me like 10 mins, but i got it.  Also in the middle of the ferris wheel you can get a hidden orb as well.

i got it, it's a mix of gta, saint's row and superman returns.

Also, in the real game it's not that easy to level up.  When you start a game, on the top it says Demo Mode: Accelerated Progression Skill (or something to that effect).  It will take longer in the game to start getting bettery skills.

Girls only want boyfriends who have great skills. -ND

I also wish could could run around, and kil oterh people on live tho.  that wouls be sick. That would be the only advantage that gta would have if they decided to do that.

WOWZERS! This has gotta be the best 360 game to date, along with GoW and Vegas! The demo is like the Incredible Hulk version of Grand Theft Auto! How can you NOT like it? I've been getting Agility, Strength, Driving, Explosives, AND Firearms Increases and I must say, once you're the best of the best, the top of the line, the number 1 player, you'll be maxed and kicking lots of gangster ass!
