This game isn't always online.

Saying there's no difference between Red Faction and Crackdown 3 is like looking at uncharted 4 and saying, "meh, good graphics and big set pieces were done in UC3, there's nothing new here."


The difference between this and crackdown is that crackdown is open world. Which is an improvement to be excpected from a generational gap in power. Not Generational Gap in power + cloud computing farms.

Same way difference between U3 and U4 is visuals and U4 is far more open. (destruction and animations also + a lot of fine tiny details)


U4 has improved scale, openness, physics, animations, and visuals over UC3 on all levels.

Crackdown has improved physics, destruction, and scale by an order of magnitude over RF, not to mention the higher resolution, better lighting etc. Just from the amount of destruction they showed in the 10minute demo(you should check it out of you haven't seen it) I'd argue that it absolutely is more than a generation ahead of RF.

I think the real test of the "power of the cloud" will be when we see what sort of destruction you can pull off in single player. Though, if they thought they could pull off a fully destructible city with just the power of the Xbone, I don't see why they wouldve bothered with the cloud for this game at all.
