Get Ready For Crackdown 2 Xbox 360 Release Download And Play Right Now

The Crackdown 2 Xbox 360 release is scheduled for July 2010, gamers are waiting impatiently for this follow up to the stellar sandbox action game Crackdown. Gamers loved the fun of open world action and addictive progression in the original and are looking for more of that in the sequel.

Reviewers and testers were invited to the Microsoft X10 preview event and were introduced to Crackdown 2 Xbox 360 with a two part demo. The first half of the demo showed how the all new story missions will work and the second showed all the fun that players can stir up using the free form features of the game.

A sample mission involves entering a Cell stronghold in order to obtain a piece of stolen technology. This sample mission took place in a shipping yard full of steel crates. This setting provided a hint at some of the new features of the story missions. One of these is the goal structure that leads players through many different objectives. This is different from the original premise in Crackdown that was essentially a step by step instruction in order to win. Another new feature is the mid-mission supply crates that allow players to stock up on weaponry and vehicles without returning to the Agency building.

After the mission portion the demo began to show the types of activities that players can get involved in when they take things at their own pace. The day-night cycle of Crackdown 2 gives gamers two distinct worlds in which to play. The night brings out zombie freaks which can be slaughtered efficiently by running them over. As the game proceeds players can venture into the underground lairs to fight the zombie freaks and discover some other night time enemies. For daytime there are several new pieces of equipment such as the wing suit to enable players to essentially fly from tall buildings, dive bombing, swooping or gliding to land safely on the ground.

Transportation is not a problem for players as there is an agency helicopter, all terrain vehicles and cars which all become more functional and easy to use as your driving level ranks up. The ranking, leveling up and agility orbs are all great motivators to continue the game, to explore the objectives and to totally immerse yourself in this world where you make the decisions that affect what happens throughout the game.

The utter destructive freedom at your fingertips that was evident in Crackdown may lead gamers to wonder how they could possibly follow up a game where the player is already the most powerful force in the city. Ruffian Games simply evens the playing field. There is still plenty of destructive freedom in Crackdown 2 Xbox 360, you can throw cars, leap from buildings, go on violent rampages, but now you will face mutated zombie freaks and other challenging enemies. New weapons, more violence and a city that is showing the effects of all the violent action taking place within are the main components of Crackdown 2.
