1. I really don't get all the negativity surrounding Crackdown. Played the game, did everything there was to do except find all the orbs and it was awesome. Played for more than 20 hours to finish the first playthrough and get all skills to 5 or six and decided to do a second playthrough on legendary to get all my skills up to max. The gameplay is very good, graphic style has grown on me and I like it a lot and I love the sound design and music as well. All in all a really amazing old school hardcore game and a easy 8/10 for me. I wasn't a Crackdown fan and got it via gamepass, but if there is going to be dlc I'm definitely buying it all.

2. "nobody interferes with your story?" lol, yes. they absolutely do. You can be matchmade into the endboss fight at level 2 while hanging out in freeplay. It absolutely happens. And not only does it ruin storyline stuff fore the level 2 guy, but it fuggs over the guys in the boss fights too, because suddenly they're 3-manning or two-manning mobs that are balanced for 4-manning with others of the same power level as them.

3. After playing both, Crackdown 3 is more fun to play than Anthem.

4. IGN reviews from 6-10 so 6.5 is pretty low

5. Aww 3:35 Miranda and her cute sneeze.

6. I'm actually having a blast playing Crackdown 3 co-op campaign. I don't get the hate at all.

7. People can have very unrefined tastes. They could only consume a certain genre. They might be playing one series of games. They could play very few games. They only play games with friends and the social experience overrides the actual content they're engaging in. They just flatout don't even attempt to analyse or improve and are just pushing buttons and vegging out while playing. You can't relay your take effectively to people like that. It's like the people who only eat wheat toast and poptarts, their palette can't handly any complex flavors. And they're ignorant to their state.

8. I think anthem is amazing. People are giving it way more crap than it deserves. I could go into more detail but I give it a 7.5/10

9. Could you please not bang on the desk, that microphone shock is the worst for headphone users.

10. Media bias… The last guardian is 80 meta and it looked and played like shit.

11. Anthems reception is the most predictable thing ever, rip Bioware.

12. Crackdown never evolves but we are good with Anthem being one of the most repetitive games ever.

13. Thought she was wearing a pedobear sweater.

14. Crackdown is a very polished and fun game. Easily a 7 or 8/10.. But it is 100% a crackdown 1 follow up.

15. Anthem is pretty bad right now. There are moments of fun. Terrible and boring mission levels.

16. Have to add, does anyone else just want to cuddle Miranda, and try and make her feel better? She is simply the cutest going off to blow her nose, bless her, get well soon!!

17. I've had a lot of fun playing Crackdown 3. I don't know why it's getting so much hate. I would give it a 7.5 at least. My biggest gripe would be with the driving. It definitely needs to improve. It's refreshing that I don't have to worry about world systems or where I left off. I can just pick it up and have fun.

18. Bam!

19. Sorry but I completely disagree with Ryan and Brandon. Crackdown 3 is easily a 6.5 to 7 /10 and yes Ive played 10+ hours of it. Its never been advertised as anything more than another Crackdown game. Its easily the most polished and biggest Crackdown game. Ive been having nothing but fun with it so far. Most of the people Ive talked to said they are enjoying the game too and can't see where the harsh negative reviews are coming from. The game is far from great and NO Ryan not even the diehard Xbox fans are calling this a masterpiece but they are saying its definitely better than a 5/10 that you guys gave it

20. Played both Anthem demos and 10 hour trail and I am so hyped for full release in couple days. Had so much fun playing. Anthem just had live stream on patches releasing today for full release.

21. Crackdown 3 is garbage. Game is repetitive and keeps crashing on me.

22. Good, bad, and the FUGLY!

23. xbox is not even trying any more lol. they are just trolling us at this point.

25. Microsoft cancelled Scalebound & released Crackdown 3.
    WTF!

    Also you don’t Deep Blue Sea Terry Crews.

26. Game isn’t bad by any means, but it’s dated as fuck and people expect better

27. the dream team!

28. Game is very much a 6.5 based on what i played. Far from amazing. Not as bad as ppl are calling it trash
