Sprawling environment

Pacific City at your disposal. The sprawling metropolis that was once Pacific City is now divided between the Agency, the Cell and the Freaks in a contentious battle between order and anarchy. Divided and expanded with new environments in every direction, the city has never been more perilous. From the rooftops to the sewers, players will utilize their surroundings to the fullest to take back Pacific City.

    I cannot freaking wait for Crackdown 2. Most anticipated game involving superhuman agents of 2010, by far.

  5. Alastair Collins says:

    I can’t really express how excited for this I am. My housemate and I spent many a … wekk, probably, playing through the first one. Not co-op either, single player. Play until you die, hand over the controller.

    So, now that we have a house with mutliple TVs and XBox’s, imagine how excited we are that this is being released!?

    I still play Crackdown, actually, it’s one of those great sandbox games with replayability value. Needless to say, I’m really looking forward to getting my grubby mitts on #2

    I’m sure this is going to be flooded soon, but I figured I’d drop a comment anyway.

  15. Garfoso says:

    Couldn’t be anything better.

  16. David says:

    I remember reading about the original title getting a four player co-op mode and it never materialized… I’m really getting amped for this game.

    Hopefully they’ve tweaked Pacific City a little more than I’m hoping, too. Despite how awesome of a place it actually is, I eventually got tired of it in the first.

  17. WindLeader says:

    Cannot wait for this game. Ever since they announced I’ve been following news on it. E3 was just a huge awesome burst of everything I wanted.

  18. MagnetixSQL says:

    I can’t wait for this to come out!
