DreamcastGuy finally speaks on Crackdown 3's latest build. Dispels major myths being spread about the game!

What are these myths you ask?

There are 4 major lies have are being spread around about the game that need to be addressed and put to rest before others get mislead.

1. The videos of Crackdown 3 with no vehicle or character shadows are from early alpha builds!

2. The cloud destruction is the most advanced destruction in any game online and are there as promised in the final game!

3. Graphics don't matter if the game is fun, and Crackdown 3 is all fun and great gameplay!

THE BIG ONE

4. Crackdown 3 developer didn't try to use Breath of The Wild's name to promote Crackdown 3 as xbox's Zelda.

*All new footage of Crackdown 3 are from the latest build after the embargo was lifted*

With this review of the CURRENT build we can confirm that:

1. The videos of Crackdown 3 going around that have NO VEHICLE OR CHARACTER SHADOWS is infact the latest build!

From what I've read this may only be an issue with the PC version of the game but it is infact the newest build and if you were a PC gamer planning to purchase this title be aware.

2. Destruction is confirmed to be DOWNGRADED!

0:50 mark:

3:59 mark:

Crackdown 3 destruction CONFIRMED to be inferior to Red Faction Guerrilla PS3 and Xbox360 2009

3. Crackdown 3 is fun and has great gameplay?

3:10 mark:

4. Crackdown 3 devs didn't try to use Breath of the Wild's name to promote Crackdown 3 as Xbox's Zelda?

6:45 mark

Refer to this thread for poster trying to lie and cover this fact.

https://www.gamespot.com/forums/system-wars-314159282/game-informer-says-crackdown-3-devs-compare-it-to--33451290/

A bunch of toxic posters arguing tooth and nail trying to deny this fact and attacking me for comments the Crackdown 3 devs made are now exposed.

There you go! The 4 major lies being spread about Crackdown 3 and are now debunked!

This is a public service announcement: Dont shoot the messenger corporate slaves.

Who the f*ck is DreamcastGuy?

Youtube gaming channel/reviewer.

dreamcast sucked

I definitely don’t listen to people who form opinions on video games from other people’s experiences.

Let’s wait for official reviews, even though we all know they will be poor

DreamcastGuy... is there a Virtual BoyMan also?

Anyway, it's all just hearsay until the actual reviews come out.

Apparently it is!

From everything I've seen also firmly supports that idea.

Crackdown 3 structures are empty styrofoam boxes that fall like blocky legos with 0 weight and disappear after a few moments.

Crackdown 3 literally has none of the destruction they described from it's initial reveal. Red Faction actually realizes most of what Crackdown 3 promised but failed to deliver, wait for it, 10 years ago.

So this guy loves crackdown 1 and 2 but is bitching about crackdown 3??(seems fishy)

Gameplay>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Graphics anyday and thats what makes these games fun to play.

Cant wait to get my hands on this game feb 15!!!

Apparently, do does Crackdown 3.

BTW Dreamcast had a 10/10 game and multiple AAA classics which is more than what can be said for a certain system and a game in particular.

OP’s post history is nothing but jealously trashing anything Xbox related and blindly praises all things sony.

So desperate he found a video by a YouTube nobody.

Lol ‘dreamcastguy’ - one of the worst console’s ever made that completely killed sega’s hardware department. Yea, I’ll take advice from that.

You just tried to use one of the dispelled myths

FAIL

Try another argument, that one has been debunked.

You sound upset.

Why are you lashing out at me? It's not my fault that Crackdown 3 has been revealed to be a fire dumpster propped up by lies and misinformation.

I'm just trying to deliver this public service announcement to ensure unsuspecting buyers aren't fooled into making a purchase under false pretense.

You should be thanking me but it's all the same. If all you wanted to do was throw a fit because I shaded this information perhaps you'll sleep better tonight now.

Sweet dreams.

@boxrekt: I suspect most Xbox folks will be trying it out on Gamepass before buying anyway.

You know your sounding like a bitter loser hater.

Ive played crackdown 1 and had tons of fun with the game.

Crackdown 3 from the videos ive seen looks like another fun game in its series.

Ill be playing it feb 15, you gonna play the game, or just cry some more?

Dang, ReviewTechUSA is not a FUD source. I was half-expecting some random jackhole, not ReviewTech! Yeeeee-ikes!

Well a lot of PC players I've seen express interest in purchasing this game so they may benefit for these bits of information.

It's not that they should not buy it if they want it, but that they are aware of what they may be getting.

The no shadow issue seems to be a problem with the PC version so those users may be getting a gimped port.

Not bitter nor a hater, I just don't like people lying to misinform others about games.

I also played crackdown 1, I don't remember much about it but I did run around in the city for a short while before I got bored and went on to something else.

I hope you enjoy every minute of Crackdown 3 if it looks like everything you want in a game. People have different standards and your taste is clearly different than mine which is fine.

And trust me, I won't be crying for anything because I have no shortage of games to play between my PS4 and gaming PC but thanks for your concern.

So, apparently you don't even know about the game you're desperately defending. Why are you arguing again?

@boxrekt: I grew up playing video games with limited to no cutscenes, games where your in control 100% of the time, so Crackdown 3 will be a blast to play for me yes.

enjoy your movie games lmao.

@boxrekt: Your jealousy over a plastic box is unhealthy.

@boxrekt: Ah okay. I'm not up to speed on the platform differences, but I'm sure it will still be a solid game. We shall have to wait and see!

Go play a game or something as this shit is embarrassing.

Hey you should jump in the other alts thread and threaten to close your alt account if it doesn't score higher than a 4 lol.

He's a good guy, I watch his stuff. Good coverage as well.

If you are recommending then I'll check him out. ?

A Sony fanny dedicated another thread for Crackdown 3? I am shocked.

Rich is a Microsoft fan and he's on the doom train too.

@blankz: I dont even have an xbox one but I agree, cows obsessing ovver crackdown is pretty rediculous, people only got the,first crackdown for the halo 3 beta access, its not a huge franchise, but the games are mindless fun, always have been.

Cows really are just bored since they beat spiderman 3 months ago and have nothing to talk about

Major myths? About a game only tiny minority of gamers have even heard about? Really?

Don't be a stick in the mud.

It's not like Sony fans get many opportunities to talk about Xbox One games. They are like solar eclipses, if you catch it when it comes around you may not see one for a long long time. You have to make the best of the opportunity when it comes around.

PC, Xbox and Nintendo fans all talk about Sony games all year every year. If anyone group deserves to claim other people are obsessed with talking about their games it's Sony fans to everyone else.

But you don't see Sony guys playing the victim when you fanboys do that for EVERY Sony exclusive EVERY year, so you guys need to suck it up when Sony fans give you other fanboys a taste of your own medicine.

It's System Wars not Sony wars. PS4 games aren't the only titles that get to be criticized cupcake.

You seriously gonna listen to someone who opens up his video saying "Crackdown 3 is gonna be Xbox's biggest game of the year", full well knowing Gears 5 is coming?

Feels like too many people who know nothing, seem to be talking like they know everything. All the videos people keep posting are people who haven't even played it. And all basing opinions off what IGN said, and that is fucking IGN, we've said thousand times they are fucking time and no resourceful or trustworthy.

I have my own thoughts, but even if I hated what I saw, I think an insane amount of people are being overly dramatic just cause its Xbox. All I want is for people to at least try it before hating on it, not see a tiny bit on their phone.

Not sure if serious or playing dumb.

literally everyone in the gaming community knows of Crackdown 3.

it was MS's big title for Xbox One at the start of this gen in 2014 and subsequently shown at multiple E3's after hyping the power of "the cloud".

Post fails.

Ignoring the thread and the video, Dreamcast guy needs to chill out. The clickbait titles are bad enough, but his opinions are wild as hell. I think i unsubscribed from him the other week for something completely stupid he said about Pokemon Lets Go.

Even being a Crackdown 1 fan, I dont think anyone feels that this is a AAA game.

Im not sure why people feel threatened enough to try to discredit the game so much on forums.

Sure, I get why youtubers do it, I mean they are trying to make a living.

The game looks like a remake of the first to me, and thats fine to me because it was fun.

Not pretty or deep, but fun.

Why are so many people insecure about an average game?

Finally got around to watching video for this.

Every. Single. Lemming. Owes me an apology for trying to defend the cloud power from literally every rant I ever made about it. When I said the original demo was horse shit running on a server farm a few feet away from the people at that little press conference it was "Oh rabid cow this and Cowgenja that"... Holy goddamn hell, I have been far too lenient on the fairy tales up in this B for too damn long!

But wait, Im not done yet. Rue this day, because I know you know that MS was hot under the collar to push a CLOUD POWER console next gen... How the hell is Microsoft or anyone else supposed to do that when Microsoft is willfully publishing shite like this that makes the phrase "powered by the cloud" indellibly freaking lame and cheesy to the gamers from now on? Like, how is this growing the industry or giving us the almighty COMPETITION you jerks wag your dicks at everyone about?!

Screw giving me an apology... Apologize to gamers everywhere for this. You heaped coal into this hype train and you're going right over the cliff with it if I have to tie you to your seats myself. Oh, Cowgenja is ready to PAR-TAY when reviews drop! Bet. Bet twice.

I remember when he was a twerp back in NX hype days, I mean he was way below that other guy Spawnwave. Yet someone showed me like a couple months ago that their channels had grown by a lot. Seems Spawn wave got them by having an actual good channel, and Dreamcast guy by clickbait titles and being another one of these feed off toxic youtube community type channels. At least that is what I got from their comment sections.

@saltslasher: You're basically right. He has lame opinions, lame titles, lame predictions, and everyone calls it out in his comments too. Its just lame.

Yeah I stopped listening to videos like that, like ReviewTechUSA, types who just read IGN headlines or crawl around ResetEra, and just make opinion pieces about everything that has to do with toxicity. Basically just re-reading shit I already saw on Twitter the day before. There was one, his name was something like yungyu, and was such a little bitch I couldn't stand it. But that is what gaming is, listen to people be as negative as possible, and report ONLY on the negative stories.

Lol this is getting sad boxrekt..

"Graphics don't matter" XboxOnex... most powerful console... oh well.

You really want to shut them up about that Cloud destruction argument? I'll give you the only evidence you'll ever need to expose the fanboys who defended and tried to validate that lie.

EVERY LIE ABOUT CRACKDOWN 3 EXPOSED!

Video start right at the breakdown.

• Exposes lie about procedural cloud damage (THE DAMAGE IS ACTUALLY PRE-CALCULATED)***
• Exposes lie of physical based destruction (causes no damage)
• Exposes lie of cloud computation for damage (last gen geometry)
• Exposes lie of fully modeled buildings (empty boxes)
• Exposes lie of persistent damage (debris disappearing)
• Exposes lie of great gameplay (zero gameplay depth)
• Exposes lie of a skill based gameplay (Lock on only gameplay)

Shit if funny how all the defenses used to bash people who spoke out about these lies are ALL exposed here in a single video with visual proof.

IF YOU DON'T WATCH ANY OTHER PART FAST FORWARD TO 21:25- 21:40 TO SEE THE BIGGEST LIE ABOUT CRACKDOWN 3 DESTRUCTION EXPOSED!

There is no cloud powered procedural destruction going on in Crackdown 3! NONE!

This sentence I used to describe Crackdown 3 is a COMPLETELY accurate assessment of what Crackdown destruction actually is and is validated by video proof.

You were also correct.

I just had to expose the major lies fanboys were selling to unsuspecting gamers who might buy into this game based on their lies, MS lies and the Crackdown 3 developers.

Sorry xbox fans, there is no cloud calculated destruction in Crackdown 3. It was a COMPLETE lie MS sold to you. 5 years in, yall can stop trying to defend that now.

It's actually undeniable fact

Sorry if the truth hurts you.

Number 4 isn’t a lie though.

Zelda BOTW is a terrible game and Crackdown 3 is a terrible game. This is Microsoft’s Zelda.

An overhyped open world game with terrible cartoon graphics.

@ipex: lol sorry dude 21:25 - 21:40 is FACT

You can't spin video evidence shown in game.

It also SHOWS what was originally promised from 2014, you're sounding like a lunatic here, just accept your L and move on MS employee.

You can't damage control this!

But Zelda is a game you can play any way you want with some degree of challenge.

Crackdown 3 is AUTO aim behind walls for brain dead gameplay and shootouts requiring 0 skill!

Whatever your criticisms of Zelda may be, Crackdown 3 falls far far below it.

My oh my, CD3 has you shook to the core, 24/7, 365, rent free.... Crackdown Won.. Baby!!

I mean, for Crying out cow... Geeezerz, how embarrassing for you. lol :P
