Destructoid Crackdown 2 Review - 4.5/10

[M.U.G.E.N]

the sad thing is this isn't even the lowest score so far for the game :S

 

GameShark

It's admirable that the guys who made Crackdown 2 have created a sequel every bit as good as the original. It's just a shame they don't have that insight into the genre at large. Because there's almost nothing in Crackdown 2 to recommend it over the competition. On the whole, I'd rather be in Panau.

That's just too harsh imo...surely this game can't be THAT bad....

The current Meta is around 72 now...but Meta sucks...however three of the main review scores/reviews I actually care to read had relatively low scores as well

Joystiq

That world, by the way, is the same one you already explored in Crackdown, if a touch more run down. Tack that on to the loads of comically plain textures and frequent slowdown and you've got a graphical package that's doing nothing to alleviate the sense of déjà vu.

60/100

1UP

There's no question that Crackdown 2 is a mere shadow of the first game, which stands as an absolute classic. The sequel feels more like an ambitious user mod than a true follow-up.

67/100

GameSpot

This game is doesn't significantly build on or vastly improve any of the features of its predecessor, so those with high hopes for a stellar sequel will be disappointed. Still, Crackdown 2's core action and appeal remain very strong, and there is great potential for cooperative mayhem, making this a fun stop on your summer videogame tour.

70/100

How long has this game been in development? can someone fill me on this...

ps: for the record Jim Sterlin is a Moron and a Troll....that's why reviews by him = BS//however it's funny some who actually defended him when he gives ps3 games low scores are doing the opposite here :P
