![]() ![]() Most of the textures are sharp, especially when playing on the Xbox One X, and the city is colourful, but at the same time, the map is just unbelievably small. Both games were last gen games, and Crackdown 3 kinda looks like a last gen game sadly. I don’t really understand why they needed the power of the cloud, or even not put in some kind of destructibility into the singleplayer, as Red Faction Guerrilla, and even EDF series had this feature. There is some in Crackdown 3’s multiplayer, but even that is a bit disappointing. Basically, there is no destructibility in the single-player campaign. With all the talk about the power of cloud and destructibility from the initial reveal and throughout the years, Microsoft did not clarify on how this will work up until the last year or so. While the weapon variety is there in Crackdown 3, and the core gameplay sounds fun in theory, but it just gets repetitive. We get the usual pistols, rocket launchers, and rifles, but there’s the occasional acid shooter, or multiple missile launchers, and a rocket-powered fist. The game also gives you an array of weapons that are stored in supply houses once picked up from enemies and grenades. You find a building you hack it, or you destroy it, a meter goes up, and after a while, a boss appears. The old 2014 trailer showed some epic stunts, and concepts and none of that survived in this game. As a lot of objectives are just destroying things, but not in the most creative ways. The boss fights themselves range from mediocre to good but getting there is a bit of a slog. As you dismantle the operations, by destroying equipment, freeing the local militia, or just generally causing havoc, you gain intel which in turn will unlock area bosses. As an agent, you have to dismantle the Island’s main industries one by one: These are Logistics, Industry, and Security. There are barely any cutscenes, and the story is thin as it gets. After the initial tutorial mission, the game just lets you do whatever you want. It has its industrial part, entertainment for the masses, and skyscrapers. The local resistance decides to regenerate the player, but with all their skills lost they have to regain all their skills.Ĭrackdown 3 takes place on Terranova’s Island, which is a mix of everything. In response, The Agency leaps into action and led by Commander Jaxon (Voiced by Terry Crews) they fail spectacularly. The refugees that arrive at the island are greeted by a fascist dictator and are put to work to further the cause of the corporation. A company that aims to control humanity by depriving them of power and bombing cities. The story of Crackdown 3 takes place a couple of years after the last game, and the world has been devastated by multiple attacks by an evil corporation called Terranova. Plus whether it lives up to its old 2014 reveal trailer. Sadly it is 2019, and the gaming industry has moved on, but let’s see how Crackdown 3 manages in this fiercely competitive environment. We also get good old things back from 2007. ![]()
