Forums - Microsoft Discussion - Crackdown 2 may be delayed till Fall; secret announcement at E3

themanwithnoname on 27 February 2010

This was suggested when they didn't let people take video of them showing it at X10 like they did at TGS.

Why does this game need better graphics? It looks fine like it is...considering it's using a cell shaded approach, it never was going to be a graphical powerhouse anyway.

A video editor would be great though.

They are not adding Natal support. They said as much on 4 guys 1up. They did hint at summer/fall release though

Well, whenever it comes out, it is going to be fucking ballistic.

Nooooo.....fuck. I was looking forward to this. I remember the "exclusive each month" speech from Greenburg, shame they couldn't stick to that. C 2 has the exact same setting as the first game (minus day/night cycles) so dev time shouldn't be this long- it probably is being delayed to add Natal support.

That saying could still hold up if you replace Metro 2033 with Crackdown 2 (since they counted ME:2 in that podcast).

 

So what was February's release?

I think they're adding the option of putting your own face in the game. They had a bunch of character choices in the first one so this is the only thing which makes sense from a gameplay perspective. My hope is that they will accept non human faces so I can put my dogs face on my badass character.



Do you know what its like to live on the far side of Uranus?

I think Splinter Cell was supposed to release maybe.  Cannot remember.  But I don't think there was an exclusive for Feb.

I'm pretty sure he said "AAA title each month," not exclusive. Move Splinter Cell to April and plug BioShock 2 in and there you have it.

Yep, you are correct I think.

X months delay?

X marks the delay?

360 days late?

Xtra months/years needed.

Delaystation just does everything right.

A Halo 3 style theatre mode in CD2 would give the game 500k extra in sales on word of mouth alone.
