Aaron hits the streets of Pacific City for one of the 360s most anticipated sequels, Crackdown 2…

Okay, I admit it.

Your main goal is to find various generators to power several special bombs that can destroy Freak nests.

The problem is thatCrackdown2 only attempts to do exactly what the originalCrackdowndid, and little more.

This isnt so muchCrackdown1.5, but more like 1.1.5.

The amount of new content is sparse, at best, and the core gameplay is totally unchanged.

This isnt good for a game that many had high hopes for.

Theres also the much-improved multiplayer.

And thats it, really!

The rest of the game is ripped directly from the original.

However, the rewards for this time invested are slightly different.

I was hoping for more substantial integration of vehicles into the main game, but this isnt the case.

If you loved the first game, youll still get a thrill out of this.

Crackdown 2is out now andavailable from the Den Of Geek Store.
