First Crackdown 2 Details

First Crackdown 2 Details

Game Informer published info about Crackdown 2 in one of their recent issues and we promised to keep you all up to date. Check out the info below and visit the 360-HQ.com games database for screenshots, trailers and more info on Crackdown 2.

The sequel to the award-winning “Crackdown,” “Crackdown 2” is the premier open-ended action experience that lets you be judge, jury and executioner for a vast city. Coming exclusively to Xbox 360 in 2010, “Crackdown 2” will take multiplayer2 gaming to unprecedented levels for the ultimate cooperative and competitive multiplayer experience, providing you and your friends with the complete freedom to explore, destroy and play as you return to restore justice and peace to Pacific City — by any means necessary.

Back Story
Okay, so we all know after Crackdown 1 we defeated all 3 of the gangs, and we were congratulated. “Peace at Last” it said. It couldn’t have been more wrong. As the Agency took over, things went to hell. A new zombie-like virus had broken out in parts of the city, and the Agency was doing a poor job at covering it up. People found out, got sick of the Agency’s bullshit, and revolted. The civilian gang called themselves the Cell, and soon after the revolted, they destroyed the agent program, almost completely crippling the Agency. But now, they’ve fixed it, and it’s time you take the city back in a 3 way war.

Crackdown 2 Features:
  • Dynamic Civilian Events (Example: A man trying to sell something in the day, getting marauded in the night. And the Agency will put up signs saying “play dead when you see an Infected”. Lulz ensue.)

  • Support Points are gone, Agents can now call in for ammo and supplies anytime and anywhere.

  • The game looks much more detailed and grittier, but still keeps the “cartoony” look we all love so very much.

  • Vehicles like Trucks or Buses have room for a mounted turret, which makes them great for getting around in Co-Op.

  • More variations in weapons, meaning people have more to choose from than just the homing rocket launcher.

  • Most of the civilian cars in the game are the same, but reskinned and armed with armor and weapons to survive in the new hazards of city life.

  • The Cell (a gang) is composed of ordinary citizens just wanting to reclaim the city from your team (the good guys). You take them out, and reclaim their turn for the Agency.

  • More instances where Co-Op play is prudent.

  • The city hasn’t changed in architect, all the roads are the same. Some buildings have been demolished and other small things, but over all it’s the same city.

  • You’ll obtain skill orbs by using abilities relevant to your character.

  • Four player Co-Op

  • 16 player Competitive Multiplayer. Tons of fun. Players collect special weapons, bonuses, and gadgets. Progression system like CoD4.
