I got bored of it after a couple minutes. That's just me I guess, I never played the first one or anything.
When I first saw it, I was like, "Oh, shit. This looks bad."
Then I played more and more and started enjoying it.
Definitely getting it when it comes out.

Just finished my first 30-minute playthrough. A few thoughts:
-Not sold on the graphical style (doesn't look as crisp as the original in my opinion)
- Still very fun (if you enjoyed the original) especially when u get 2nd and 3rd tier abilities
-Seems more robust than original (ex. weapons have stats- and I cant wait to use some of the later ones)
-Strongholds and Lairs replace boss hideouts I think, not sure what else there is (one of the start menu tabs was "locked")
-Didn't dig the agent faces, they looked really bland (ties into grahical style IMO)
-Not sure about Zombies (or whatever they are) could be really fun to mess with and u dont have to worry about constantly being shot at. But I'm not sure yet
Anyway, I'm going to buy it, but I loved the first Crackdown. At the very least it should make for some good clean fun. Also excited for 4-player co-op with fully upgraded agents.

It still seems to be the king of games for messing around in. For me it comes into its own when in co-op. The UV shotgun and magnetic grenages are the best. Driving down the street at night swinging a skip from the back of your car is lots of fun.
It does seem a little rough around the edges in places. Like the physics while sometimes launch a guy 20 feet in the air from the slightest knock. But that doesn't really bother me.
-Edit-
Try going to the quarry and explore the mine shafts. Crawling with freaks and has a few jump pads too. I'd advise taking the UV shotgun with you though.

its just the last one with a bit of polish
its good, but i dont think ill bother with the fll thing
the targeting still sucks, on account of it locking onto a car behind a building and the guy i was trying to shoot

im not sure about the targeting system, the air support or the freaks but apart from that, it was ok. they should not have put a time limit on it tho, i didnt even unlock any achievements
I didn't like the first one's demo that much, and this isn't much better. I understand I have to kill the freaks so they don't destroy the city, but I'm not made to care about anything else. In most games I play orders are hidden in story missions and favors for other characters; here a voice tells you to do things and you do them. I also didn't think it was that challenging. Eventually you can steamroll through people, kill them in one blast of a shotgun, jump over small buildings, etc. Since no one else can do this, no one else poses a threat. It doesn't help that I'm either jumping for orbs, killing freaks, or killing cell either. So, lack of focus/story, lack of challenge, and lack of variety made it not worth getting for me.
