Crackdown, Being Shadowed By Halo 3?
From the legendary game designer Dave Jones, who created such other video game masterpieces as Grand Theft Auto and Lemmings comes Crackdown.With the pre-release shipping February 20th, it looks to be one of the best games for the Xbox 360 as of today. Bundled in a limited amount comes with a key to play on the Halo 3 beta multiplayer before anyone else can. I am pretty sure that this game can stand on it's won, but I wonder if some people would really be just THAT tempted to drop the cash (around $60) to just get the key for the multiplayer. As an avid gamer, I still think that I would get the game because I want to play it, not because of something else that comes with it. It's not like the whole game is coming with it; that I can wait for. 
Patience is a virtue and luckily myself and my bank account have that in common. Anyways, focusing back on Crackdown instead of a key for Halo 3, it promises to be one of the best sellers on the market. Gamestop gives a short description as "Crackdown" pushes the action-driving hybrid genre into the next generation with the first ever truly 3-D playground. Gamers will enforce justice by any means necessary in Pacific City, a crime-ridden urban center built to encourage the exploration of the full width, depth and height of the city. Coupled with highly innovative co-op gameplay — a genre first — and an interactive world where nearly anything can be used as a weapon, gamers will be able to create a volatile cocktail of judicial oppression as they clean up the streets." I am kind of torn between spending my hard earned money on this or Lost Planet, which is a great game from Capcom (but I heard it was on the short side) Crackdown also offers more then 100 tracks and the always awesome ability to use the environment as a weapon. I remember reading an article and seeing a picture of an over-muscular man throwing a car at someone. There is also co-op gameplay and stunning visuals to make this game a must own. In addition, this 
game lets you roam freely around the city, letting YOU, the game, decide what is the best way to win. That is an amazing concept, and when/if the game is in my possession, I'll let you know how it really stacks up. Later.
