Crackdown Thoughts

Playing a game released in 2007 when it has a fairly rabid following with a sequel newly announced is always a bit of a challenge. The graphics are somewhat dated and the animations aren't the best.

Now, if I mention the disappearing gun whenever you hang on a ledge and then it reappears when you jump, you can't un-see it.

The pacing seems appropriate, lieutenants and generals and bosses get harder in each area.

The achievements, aside from the co-op full game completion seem reasonable, though I'm not going to be bothered to find all 800 orbs at this point in my life, nor finish every car and foot race.

I enjoyed it, but I just threw in The Saboteur (PS3) last night and really enjoyed the heck out of that, though I'm only 2 hours into it.
