Final Impressions of Crackdown 2
Talk a bout a disappointing game. I’m not sure what really was the issue with Crackdown but I clearly got tired of the game half way through playing. The game wasn’t as compelling as the original. I have not sold the game back yet but I know I will not be buying a 3rd version if it comes out.
The game felt really repetitive but without any story to help push you along. There were all the elements of a good game here but just poorly executed. You had audio files around to help the gamers fell like there might have been a story somewhere in the game. It’s too bad that the story elements were hidden across the city and required the player to hunt to find those items. I guess I wasn’t motivated enough to spend time searching for these audio files.
I wonder how well Crackdown would play out today? I tend to think it was a product of a shallow gaming pool. There wasn’t much to play so they didn’t mind hunting for orbs and playing a game with little story. Compared to games like Gears of War, Mass Effect and Assassin’s Creed Crackdown is a B rate game of this generation.
