This isn't a sequel. It's just more of the same, but not as interesting because there's barely a story. Thought the story of the first game was thin? Crackdown 2 is even thinner.
I was at least looking forward to some improvements, but it seems like none of the things that annoyed me in the first game have been improved. Like being a super-powered being who gets blocked climbing up buildings by gutters and simple architecture? Yeah me neither. Climbing still sucks. Everything feels more like a chore than fun now. As one reviewer called it: "Busywork: The Game." Sounds fun huh.
If you must play a Crackdown game, just stick with the first one. It's a better game. It appear the devs didn't want to make a sequel. They just wanted to expand the multiplayer, change the mission objectives sorta, and call it an entirely new game. Same city tho. So the maps aren't new.
Crackdown 2 was a huge letdown. I was expecting to find a game that was like the first, but extended and better. Instead we got this crud. Nerf'd. Without any improvements. Even more annoying than the first with all the zombie freaks.
Just not any fun anymore. Boooooo!
