The driving skill is cooler then you realized. If you use agency vehicles they transform into cooler and faster models the more you level up the skill.
I can confirm this is an accurate representation of what it's like to live in an American city. Just the other day I was late to work because a super soldier police officer picked my car up and threw it 100 feet to kill a gang member that had been shooting rockets.
@@conformistbastard9842 It's not a copy of that joke at all, they were just corroborating the joke as per what the video said, which was 'I'm sure my fellow Americans will back me up on this'.
As a fellow American, I can confirm that it is exactly as they say. If anything, it's a little downplayed. I had take down a cartel drug ring last night just to get some ice cream from my local store.
I think this was the first 360 game I got and it was very addicting. I remember trying to scale buildings I wasn't upgraded enough to climb and kicking cars into other cars. Too bad the rest of the series never captured my attention.

Have you played The Saboteur? It´s a really fun open world game like Crackdown but in the WW2. I´m still waiting for a remake/rebooot/sequel that I sadly know, probably, will never come.
this game always felt like the best 8/10 game I'd ever played. The sum of it's decent yet not extemporary parts all stitched together to make a 10/10 experience. I still play this at least once a year as it's very pick up and play and enormously fun easy gaming
Honeslty Crackdown 1 and 2 are sort of like Wind Waker. They have aged incredibly well graphically. The only real changes I'd like is if they brightened some colors, and a couple of grass textures.
I wish I grew up with this series. I now own all 3 of them and think it is super underrated. Even comparing it with other super hero games of its time like Infamous and Prototype, I think that Crackdown had arguably aged the best. The gameplay loop is simple enough to replay, and graphically all 3 games look very good due their art style. Honestly this series feels like something Nintendo would have done, and I think it would be perfect on Switch.
No no no you are tripping . Infamous is much better than this and I’m an Xbox guy . Crackdown beats Prototype but not infamous brother you are wrong there .
@@Ocarina1786Infamous 2 is untouchable, that is for sure, but Infamous 1 has aged very poorly, in my opinion. The Crackdown trilogy still keeps to the basics at least even if 3 doesn't do anything revolutionary with the genre.
I think it was the final boss (some old chinese guy with a big fu manchu), but I remember I just drove the agency 4x4 into an elevator using its "crouch" ability and got to the top floor, then ran the old bastard down. I love it when you can find weird ways to do stuff in videogames....I was only about 9 when I played this but still remember it vividly!
@@Gabriel-wk3hz It was eh for it's time. Okay at the start but it only gets worse the further along you went, and we can have so much better especially with today's technology, too bad no company is taking the opportunity.
Still hoping for a Crackdown 1 and 2 remaster that also gets released on PC. I had some fun with Crackdown 3 but let's face it - it wasn't very good. I would just love to play the original on PC.
I'm playing crackdown 1 and 2 at the moment. And I can say that the rocket boots on the second game REALLY makes a difference, crackdown 1 sometimes gets boring when you literally fall down from a building you took ages to climb and have to do it all again because stairs simply haven't been invented in that universe yet 😂. Fun games, 8/10 for me (1 and 2 only lmao)
Racing though Back Allies always make me wonder if they even considered the consequence to having these races in the back allies, I feel like I was playing Die Hard Trilogy
This is exactly how the city of Miami operates. I have to make sure I wear my bulletproof vest, helmet and grab my rifle on the way to the grocery store.
I need to play this game again, but from what I played, it got a bit too repetitive for me. I enjoyed it for a couple of hours, but it eventually just got too repetitive.

Like Die Hard. A perfect standard action movie
@@kifa123 yeah that's it hehe
I still play it on Series X, I would love if it got a enhanced version
honestly really enjoyed this series, even 3. but nothing tops Crackdown 1. Wish it'd get a remaster
It runs great on the Xbox Series consoles

I downloaded this and MGS 5 right before a 6 month deployment, lots of fun and kept me busy during my down time.

@@Gabriel-wk3hz
That's what I'm hoping for too cheers!
One of my favourite games of all time.
Btw this game is free on xbox along with crackdown 2.
It wasn't a hit just because of the halo 3 beta, there was a demo available before release and it became one of the most downloaded demos on Xbox live
I got this game with games with gold a while back and man I loved it. It was so much fun playing this game.
Loved it, would love to see a remaster
The soundeffects in this game are amazing.
One of the few games I played on the 360, really fun game.
This game needs a release on PC.

2 was meh. If they'd port or remaster 1, I'd throw money at them.
@@armyofninjas9055 2 might not have been as good as the first one, but I'd still like to have both of them on PC at some point.

I love this game and have so much nostalgia for it. I really wish that this game came out on steam
This game was my GTA: San Andreas
I'm a little annoyed you didn't mention the neat little reveal at the end, unless I missed a part which said this review was spoiler free
I can relate to that statement about your american day to day city life, though I live in Brazil. heh

I would to play it again, it was one of the best games I've ever had, unfortunately I don't have an xbox360 or xbox one
there is no pc version?
Only if they would make a remastered version keep everything and just give us better graphics literally don't need to change anything ab this
Nice vid you got a new subscriber
Yes, this is a mild representation of what it's like to live in Baltimore or Detroit.
God I wish they'd port or remaster this for pc
this game has the best glitches in any open world
Why did you avoid driving? You're definitely missing out on the awesome vehicles upgrades you can get if you max out your driving skills
I'm aware of the upgrades. I still find it more enjoyable and easier to get around by jumping.
Loved Crackdown & Crackdown 2 back in the day, I'm glad a third game never happened.
Wait... But there is a-
Aalh yeeeeah bout time big homie! Forgot bout dis one, preciate ya
I need to play this game again, but from what I played, it got a bit too repetitive for me. I enjoyed it for a couple of hours, but it eventually just got too repetitive.
i'd love this game too
crackdown 1&2 are FREE on xbox store! having a blast with them , btw awesome review :)
I think they were made free probably because of the rocky launch of Crackdown 3 as some sort of apology.
Saints Row meets Incredible HULK Ultimate Destruction!! LOL
Can confirm American bit
This game was so hard when i was young and the second and third games were doodoo.
super fun game
oooooh say can you seeeeeeeeeee
Ah yes. The best game series. Then 3 came out.
REAL DETROIT SIMULATOR 2022
This game was wayyy too easy. All you had to do was kill the boss of each district and poof! Their soldiers disappeared.
Me who keeps dying against the volk
POV: You live in America
I wish us Americans were more heavily armed. Less likely to be a victim
They should of called this game Democrat: Super Majority!!
The gangs are pretty much a copypaste from saints row.
