New Crackdown Content Dropping On XBL Today
The Team Xbox site is carrying details on new downloadable content for Crackdown on the 360. Probably the most comprehensive downloadable content made available since the 360 launched, the new pack adds three vehicles, a number of gameplay modes, a 'cheats' mode, and ten more Achievements to the title. "For Crackdown, Realtime diligently follow the post-launch forum chatter and attempted to address all of the concerns with the base game, while at the same time adding new content to keep it all fresh. There are also some items that perhaps didn't make the final cut for Crackdown's original launch (time constraints will do that to a project of this magnitude) but have been prepared and thrown into the upcoming DLC code. However it actually came about, Crackdown's Title Update, 'Free-for-All' and 'getting' Busy' packs are a win-win for those allied to the Agency."
I for one didn't find the controls sucky. They're as good as any other third-person actioner. In particular, they seemed a little better to me than, say, the GTA games, especially when it comes to targeting.
If you want to experience controls that suck in ways best described with terms from barnyard pornography, check out Star Trek Encounters...
