You complete each boss's series of utterly identical missions (killing the guards at train stations, blowing up the tanks at chemical works, um. So there are six mission types for the six bosses at the bottom, then three for those above, and then the top boss saved for the end. Your only meaningful sense of direction is a hierarchy of bosses to take down, those higher up the ten-person chain made easier to defeat (or so it says) by taking out those below. For some reason a number of voices incessantly drivel meandering nothingness in your ears, talking and talking and talking, but never saying anything. Crackdown 3 is a game about a map, which is covered in icons, and the player who has to go to all those locations and repeat one of several near-identical mission types. There's a goody organisation called The Agency. There's a baddy organisation called Terra Nova. Unfortunately Crackdown 3 exists in this universe, where nearly six years later, it feels like the Lidl's own version that your aunt bought you, not realising it wasn't the real thing. Because in that world people wouldn't just be thinking about how nice it would be to be playing Saints Row IV again instead of this.

A bland, woefully dated, aimless and deeply derivative open city, which somehow can't even be saved by the presence of Terry Crews.Ĭrackdown 3 is a game that desperately wants to exist in a universe where Saints Row IV never happened. What a horrible story there must be to tell of the last six or so years of Crackdown 3's development, if the result of all that time is this wet tissue of a game. For the latest on Crackdown 3 and all things Xbox stay tuned to Xbox Wire.Oh dear.
