I wanna buy crackdown but something tells me it'll be in game pass soon.

Very tempting. Still nothing plays like it.

In case anyone missed it from the enhanced games thread, the IQ from 1X enhancements does a lot here:

I'm still wrapping my head around how amazing this is. Pretty unprecedented.

And Crackdown is one of the most fun open world games you can find. Glad I found my copy, but I think It will hit Gamepass in the coming months.

finally, been waiting for crackdown to come out for back compat. Will be my first time playing it but should be good to play through before 3 comes out. I can skip 2 right?
Yes, I don't see no reason to play the sequel. It was worse than the first in my opinion.

So many great memories. Tanking the framerate in the demo by exploding a pile of cars and barrels in co-op (one person would stay by the pile so items wouldn't despawn while the other person hunted more explodable objects). The relief of finding that last agility orb. Getting stomped in the harder DLC races before just building barricades at the finish line and shooting out tires as the opponents finished their first lap. Makeshift rockets-only deathmatch with my co-op buddy. The disappointment I felt in Assassin's Creed automated climbing mechanics after spending so much time scaling buildings in Crackdown's world. One of the first games that I earned every achievement for.

I do wonder if it holds up. Only one way to find out.

I assumed this wouldn't hold up...but after an hour of messing around, I'm very happy to say I was wrong. There's so much dumb fun to be had in this game.

It turns out I missed the gwg month that had Crackdown, time to go to Gamestop. They should spin off the orb collecting into its own game.

Anyone else find it hilarious that Enhanced Crackdown looks as good if not better than Crackdown 3?

The borders on a low-effort troll statement, it's such a hot take. CD1 looks nice because it's clean, but it's still an early-gen 360 game. I can't think of one way CD1 looks better than 3, on a totally serious level.

Original Horizon had the rally DLC. DLC that still reigns as the best Horizon DLC.

Can you download the Rally DLC for Horizon? Last time I checked I wasn't able to access to the ingame shop to download it (I bought it years ago)

I've already finished Crackdown. I'd rather give Crackdown 2 another chance with an upgrade.

Sorry to bump this thread, but want to talk about Crackdown Enhanced--it's still SO good! I played through the entire game and just had a blast. Funny thing is the 4k version basically makes the game look how i remember it looking. Also, I had a hell of a time trying to scale Wang tower at the end, so i captured a 4k video (4k still rendering as I type this) of me taking the sneaky path from northern outside part the building instead of entering at the bottom south side of the building (which is basically not that fun).



Anyone else playing through Crackdown again?
