  Just a phenominal expierence that you dont want to put the controller down.   Until you've played it, you would not understand.

I agree. This game is like crack. It's so fun and addicting. I have not felt this way about a 360 game yet, then came this brilliant masterpiece. An open world game that is bringing in platforming and RPG elements. I can't get enough.

It sure is fun, for the little ammount of time it lasts. I mean, theres basically no structure to the game. Which is both a blessing and a MAJOR CRUTCH. I was walking around and got a mission to kill a kingpin and it said "You have an 8% chance of completing this task." Walked in and kicked everybody off the roof and just gave the a-town stomp to the person and that was that.

I think it depends on how you play games.

The game is really fun but lacks structure.

I honestly thought the review was dead on. I mean, 8. high isn't that bad. I personally thought it should have scored lower. Same old zelda with a bad audioscore.

No.  I'm applying many of the reviewers have horrible taste.  They rant about wanting something new but when it hits them in the face, they complain.  I actually believe GS has the worst reviewers around in my opinion.

imo the most underated game of the generation is Condemned, almost AAA material if it just wasn't so short and had more varied environments

Agreed, but not sure if it deserves a super high rating. Don't get me wrong, I know why Crack is in the title (ie you can't put it down); however, technically there are severl issues with it, that holds it back. I will say though that it is the most fun I have had with a game in 2007.

So gamespot, and all other reviewers have horrible tastes in games just because your opinion doesnt coincide with theres? Where can i get one of the high horses?

   They have horrible taste because they differ so much from the rest of the media.  Look at thier scores and go to gamerankings and compare games.  Not just crackdown but all games.  I have a Wii60 and love Zelda but an 8.8 is not horrible.  I agree it should of gotten atleast a 9 though.  Crackdown deserves much more respect then 7.8.  I dont' think it's AAA but its a damn fun game that alot of people enjoy.

  I have not heard one complaint yet from any users who acutally own crackdown.  It's always the "gta clone" people who call every sandbox game a "gta clone" and the nintendo/sony fanboys who never have played it, always complain.

Thats two games you choose to use. If you looked hard enough, there are game on gamespot which are reviewed higher than the average of gamespot.

BTW, stop crying about it and go play crackdown, no one cares if you think gamespot sucks, or is a bad review system. Ratings are not the end of the world.

Haha, the sad part is I cant waiti to get home so i can countinue the smackdown on those Vok guys. P.S. Enemy badguys wielding the "HE99 Hothead" (rocket launcher) cause immeasurable pain.

Just because it's an open world game doesn't mean it's a clone. That is like saying Crysis is a clone of Half-Life. You're a good guy. You have superhuman abilities. It has platforming. It has RPG elements. Crackdown is nothing like GTA. That would be Saint's Row.

So you judge a book by its cover? Nice, good to know you just have "gut feelings" and "impressions", but no facts. No need to read your posts then.dhjohns

i have to agree they have lost touch with the average gamer, i think we need a new review cast at GS, some kids in thier 20-30s so we can relate and not have every game compared to shindler's list.

The demo was fun for a while, but there seems to be no variety to the missions.  Just go kill the boss and thats it.

Crackdown is in the same genre. It is not a clone of GTA at all.
