    A mind blowing game. The likes to which i have never come across my entire life. The map is huge, probably the biggest so far in gaming history. The game is so immersive that one does not feel like quitting. To be honest one can never get enough of the game. A bang up job as far as the porting is concerned., not an easy job but splendidly done. Kudos!!! and Enjoy!!!

    For the Interested, here is the Pros/Mids/Cons of the game.

    PROS+
    + Racing coop (up to 4 player max per mission or pvp game)
    + Very detailed environment (Working NPC's, a lot of Wilflife and alot of map details)
    + Better graphics than Test Drive Unlimited 2
    + Detailed leaderboards and statistics for everything
    + Good car handling and controls (with a few exceptions since its a NFS styled game)
    + Polices Forces that can chases you almost evrywhere. (give challenge somtimes)
    + Open world where you can drive wherever you want (Even discover some easter eggs in the world)
    + Good transition between game cinématics and gamplay (So you fell like you gived control of it after mission movies.)
    + Posibility to send your friend do faction missions for you. (so you can save time instead of doing a 2h mission for a bit more of easy game money)
    + 50 Cars for first release batch (Witch is not bad for a game that features quite detailed car interiors)
    + Offers car customisation such as pre-fab vynils/stickers, Rims, Spoilers and some chasis mods. ( Alot more visual customisation to offer compared to TDU2)
    + Day and Night Cycle System

    MIDS~
    ~ Servers are down for maintenance sometimes. (yes it can happen, its an online game)
    ~ Uplay Launcher (at least i can be used / merged whit steam tho)
    ~ Storymode is a bit short. (but is still entertaining to watch)
    ~ Missing Mirrors Animations for Cockpit view in some Cars. (they already working on it already for next patch )
    ~ Weather conditions changes only when you go the mountains where there is snow (they might could use a bit rain but its not that bad)
    ~ Can have unblanced AI (depending if you and your crew have to high level gap)

    CONS-
    - No offline mode (you need a internet connection to play this game)
    - No possibility to add your own Music (but you can customise your playlist atleast)
    - Microtransactions
    - Got ported only for xbox 360 only and not for PS3 (it was not even suppose to get out on old gens you lucky bastards)

    So as so far for the rest for the game and the gamplay itself, the pleasure of free roaming those cars with friends is pretty Neat, if your one of thos players who dislike this game, just go back to driveclub or what so ever other racing sim game you were playing, otherwise if your looking for car tunning, driving everywhere from road to montains, and like fast paced races for the fun of playing it, this game i what you are looking for !

    All together i would say, "The Crew" is a cool game to play for cruising around with Friends or even to play alone i would say, sure the game have some bugs and have a litle lack on MMO since its more concentrated on the NFS genre gamplay but is worth the price when we know they will comme up whit more !

    (8 thumbs up)

    Continue the good work Ubi we know that you can do it and update this until perfection as other titles did before !!
    (Afterall They made Driver San Fransico witch was a great & fun game so why not the crew !)    … Expand

    One of the best driving games i have played in a while , Amazing Port [Porting a Next gen game to Current gen] isn't that easy considering the game design!

    Game is Dam good to play,but if we compare with Next gen with 512MB ram the game looks far better optimized.Environment is good ,skills and the faction missions are very challenging.All and all enjoyed driving my car through the USA and finding the hidden cars and data tower.

    Not one of the best ports but the game atlest is playable and not broken(points for that), also the hard work of the people who had to work on this port shows in the stability of this game.

    Brilliant port from next gen to current gen, too much fun and a large map with many things to do. Faction missions are just too good you are just stuck to the game for hours and hours. I just can't get enough of this game.

    I've not made the move to next-gen yet so I'm glad I can play this game on my X360. I'm having a lot of fun, with it, which is why I mostly play video games for. I already know I will spend hours of my life customizing my four-wheeled avatars/ Ride on baby!

    So far, so good ! Great game. I have a lot of fun playing it ! Gameplay is tight and nicely balanced somewhere between simulation & arcadish. Graphics are OK but hey, it's old gen now :) I really like the coop dimension. This is going to be standard for other racing games. Definitely worth playing if you're into this genre.

    Pretty nice port when looking at the game world! Awesom to rid through the US! Seems exactly the same as X1: sme cars, same world, same missions. Not as pretty as X1 but defintively up there on X360

    Actually way more beautiful than I expected. Sure the resolution and framerates must be higher on new gen, but I'm really enjoying my ride so far on this old gen port. Very solid.

    In this video: http://youtu.be/6wzKBmIvmcg You can see if the game is Great, Good, Mediocre or Bad. These are my best moments while playing this game. I was playing in the PS4 but it's basicaly the same game, the only differences are in the downgrade. (no cockpit view, worse frame rate and graphics, etc)

    Have these people actually played The Crew, it is completely broke. It is no where near close to next gen.

    Broken, broken, broken. Nobody is ever in my session which makes all co-op requests fail. Sky-line + Dirt kit = kicked from servers 4x in a row. 20 FPS and more screen tears than you can count.

I really wanted to like this since I'm a racing game fan that is starving for even decent games to play on the 360. This has a lot of potential but just squanders all of it. Here are the actual issues that this port of The Crew has :

    - The framerate drops constantly to unplayable levels of 15-20 at most. This makes the performance so choppy, cornering through the races or skill events becomes uncontrollable
    - The game doesn't look like a standard 360 racng game, everything looks like a really ugly polygon, and even the traffic can pop in out of nowhere in front of you. As an example a "round" Nissan logo on the cars is actually a star with ten points since the game cannot create a "circle"
    - The bugs are *everywhere*. The game freezes approximately once every 2-3 hours and often it hits a hickup area that causes it to freeze three times in 15 minutes, including the time it takes to restart the console. This issue especially makes this game practically unplayable.
    - The missions lack variety and creativity. On top of this, there is an especially infuriating mission type that involves trying to catch your target car and ram into it, until it's life bar goes down. Problem is the controls are so bad, they just can't hack the precision needed to actually *accomplish* this.
    - The controls feel weird. It's hard to explain, but it feels like there's a wooden plank in between the controller and your car, and the car is about three inches above the ground so the controls are at the same really floaty and incredibly stiff and imprecise. It makes most of the skills challenges hard in all the wrong ways, since the car just doesn't respond to your commands.
    - It cannot be played offline, and there is nothing you can do if as*holes in xbox live choose to ruin your day by ramming into you. You can't even report them because the game doesn't register them as gamertags you've "met".

    Instead of creating a needlessly huge empty world, the designer's should have focused on the actual car control and ironing out the millions and millions of game-braking bugs this travesty has. I even ran into a glitch in the story where it would freeze always at the exact same moment over and over again, preventing me from progressing. Broken game that cannot be completed, due to a game-braking bug. No points. I want a refund.    … Expand

    The game is online its pretty cool game. But the thing I hate is that the Xbox 360 version does not have 1st person, (I really wanted 1st person i'm disappointed''), and the graphics are not the best, And I can't play online with anyone because it says there's no one in my session, o ya and the car tuning is not that good either. other then that the game is pretty good.

    The fact that the Xbox 360, a console that's been around since 2005, can make a better port of a game like The Crew compared to the PS4 and Xbox One should tell you something: Ubisoft doesn't work very hard on their non-triple A titles like this.

The graphics are pretty good for a Xbox 360 that it looks better than the Xbox One port of The Crew. Why does Ubisoft have to downgrade their PS4 games just to make Xbox fanboys happy (unless Microsoft pays them to do so)? It's the reason why it's better to get games like this on last-gen consoles. The game itself is alright despite being required to play online. If you're going to buy The Crew, buy it on the PC or the Xbox 360, as Ubisoft doesn't care about next-gen consoles for games like these.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. When buying on 360, it isn't the same for other platforms.

    It isn't really good to port new games to old platforms, that includes you, xbox 360.
    Microsoft ended it's partnership with their games to XBOX 360, it ended when Forza Horizon 2 came out for the 360.

    But, the crew's amazing map stunned me, and while there could be some more glitches, it still had the almost same feel to the iconic America, and to the newer ports.
