Best stupid fun sandbox shooter adventure I have played. Art direction, sound design and action a gas.

I always wanted to love GTA, but it would leave me cold after awhile. While the dynamics of plot/story/missions in Crackdown are simpler in many ways, Crackdown for me was just whole lot more fun. The art direction, sound design and voice over work make for the perfect big scale comic book. The scale if insanity as you work through the city make for a lot of fun, and the needs to scale up your super powers become increasingly important. While i found the driving handy but not entirely necessary. Strength however as an attribute became the most important for my experience as leveling up gave you great options in escapability and survival

Flat out fun. One of the best pieces of escapism I have played in last few years.
