I watched a bit of the Digital Foundry review. For the first time I properly registered the game’s neon aesthetic. Also I like the
idea of these high vertical levels and completely destructible environments, which I can’t think of another game that does that (maybe Syndicate Wars?) So the novelty factor makes me want to give it a go. Some games are mediocre but have a fun mechanic.
The reviews ain’t all bad... Gamespew gives it an 9/10.
Crackdown 3 is the sequel we deserve. It takes everything that made the original game so great and expands upon it, leveraging the power of the Xbox One to make the experience bigger and better. New Providence is varied and interesting to explore, your agent is a pleasure to control and upgrade, and more importantly, Crackdown 3 is just fun.
