    Very disappointed. Even if you ignore that it's nothing like originally advertised, it's just plain mediocre. You can have fun of course, but it just feels like a downgrade from the much older Crackdown 2, and I'd recommend you play it instead.

    O jogo possui um visual e mecânicas datados, se fosse lançado no início da geração ou da geração passada seria um ótimo jogo. Mas com Red Dead Redemption 2 e outros jogos de mundo aberto o jogo se torna muito medíocre e datado.

    Sadly for Crackdown 3 no matter what they did, the game was likely to get criticized. There is valid reason for the criticism however but really Crackdown 3 isn't so terrible, it's just decidedly average.

    Firstly the game is far too short. My game stats show 7 hours played but it's more like 8 or 9 hours. In those 9 hours my character become so OP as to make the game almost boring.    Sadly for Crackdown 3 no matter what they did, the game was likely to get criticized. There is valid reason for the criticism however but really Crackdown 3 isn't so terrible, it's just decidedly average.

    Firstly the game is far too short. My game stats show 7 hours played but it's more like 8 or 9 hours. In those 9 hours my character become so OP as to make the game almost boring.

    The plotline revolves around shutting down an evil corporation thats oppressing the people yada yada its pretty typical sci-fi-futuristic cliched stuff. The idea is you take down the lieutenants one by one thus weakening the forces of the climatic showdown with the big bad boss. You can take these challenges on however you see fit and in fact I skipped one lieutenant altogether. By this point my character had become this one man bringer of death and destruction who could leap 40 foot upwards and about 200 feet in any direction. I could one punch the vast majority of troops, one shot the majority of troops and even the elite units were basically just mild annoyances. As such I decided to take on the final boss early...and won...easily. It took a while to fight up her tower but at no point was I facing anything particularly difficult. I just tore through her troops the same way I tore through all the others.

    You shouldn't be able to do that in 8 game hours on a full priced AAA game. That's one of the shortest single player campaigns I have seen for a long while. There is little to no replayability here. Basically the game says I can go take down the final lieutenant but I've seen the credits roll, I've seen the canon ending so it begs the question; why bother?

    I could collect orbs to up my stats but they're all at 5 out of 6 and my character is already hilariously godly, destroying everything and bounding around the map with complete ease.

    So not only is it short, its pretty uninspired stuff whilst you play through it anyway. The fights with the lieutenants aren't really that memorable or difficult to undertake. This was particularly proven to me when I'd set a waypoint for some race or other and during my journey there I accidentally ran into the zone that triggers the fight with one of the lieutenants.

    Normally this'd be fatal in a game but I simply dispatched him in about a minute and carried on my merry way. There are only 8 of these guys in the game, you'd think they'd make them a bit more special. They all have backstories that are yawn inducing and very thin. You don't really know their motives or anything past a sentence or two of their bio. The characters are flimsy and the dialogue is dull. You get taunted about how you're going to die as you're casually tearing through their guards with little to no effort. It is unintentionally funny that the game is acting as though there is some daunting challenge in front of you when really it's just "lock on-bambambam-he's dead-lock on-bambambam...". There are, in fairness, quite a diverse array of different enemies to face but they all die so easily the distinction becomes kind of pointless. The only two that stick out are the giant mech bots who can ragdoll you and have quite a bit of health and the cheesy shield troops who you cannot damage until their shields deplete, which is time based not based off of anything you do and as a result feels like cheap, bad character design.

    The dialogue is very boring between your handlers and your character is mute (I didn't play as Terry Crews). They frequently try for humor but it boils down to "Guy with serious voice says 'wacky' things" and it doesn't really work. I found myself playing with music on for the last hour or so and I'm pretty confident I missed nothing.

    So it's short, it's easy, it's poorly written, designed poorly... but it is kind of fun. I mean I can't say that in my 8 or so hours this weekend I didn't enjoy myself, however easy it all was to do, but that alone doesn't make up for the games other shortcomings. The world is large but again, dull and poorly designed. It looks like Saints Row 3 which isn't to knock SR3 but to say it has the world design of a game 8 years old. It's just characterless, the epitome of a "sandbox" just generic copy paste buildings split into "zones".

    The driving controls are awful and driving is beyond pointless in a game where you can leap 200 feet forward and outrun cars anyway. My character had 0.50 out of 6.00 points in driving skill by games end and it made absolutely no difference.

    Really though, whilst mildly fun, this game is entirely forgettable and honestly what it does; a wacky off the world shooter where you have crazy abilities, was done vastly better in every aspect by Sunset Overdrive, which was funnier, looked much better (4 years ago) and more fun to play. This is by no means a terrible game, its a decidedly average one and I'll probably delete this and never pick it up again.

    It's an ideal gamepass sort of game really. Not bad but disposable.    … Expand

    I understand Crackdown 3 is fan service, but with the state of the Xbox exclusives did they really need another flop. With more investment in development and a little more imagination Crackdown could of been a fun little filler game, unfortunately it has been put out to die and done so in the cheapest way possible.

    Tras años teniendo a este juego como uno de los estandartes de Xbox vemos en su estado final un intento de Third Person Shooter en mundo abierto y mecanicas de plataformas. Con una historia que pese a tener al carismático Terry Crews no se desarrolla ni termina siendo interesante.

    De aquí pasamos al multijugador, el cual no tiene ningun tipo de progresión y se basa en jugar y repetir. Destacar sobre todo el constante autoapuntado que quita todo tipo de desafio de abilidad y solo deja al jugador con la capacidad de moverse, haciendolo bastante repetitivo y con una falta grave de desafio. En este modo encontramos mas destrucción, pero una vez más, no es lo que se prometió que sería.

    En definitiva, nos encontramos junto a un juego mediocre, vendido a precio completo, excepto si estas suscrito a GamePass, y que no solo no cumple con lo esperado sino que no cumple ni con lo mínimo a esperar de una producción de esta embergadura ni con lo mínimo de un juego en 2019.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Created an account here just to talk about this game. Been a longtime Crackdown fan. Spend a crazy amount of time in the first two games. Especially getting those orbs. So naturally when I heard there would be a third game I was hyped. Didn't think they could screw it up. I was wrong.

    Let's make it clear a lot of the core gameplay is still there. Not too much has changed with the mechanics. So on that end its good ol' Crackdown. Even the graphics have that same great visual style to them. And adding Terry Crews was perfect!

    So what is this game a 3? Well the map is SUPER small. Though they managed to build buildings higher than before. But of course everything is just a empty shell you climb. With even more limitations then before with climbing. With the small map you are stuck with a game that can be beat within 6-8 hours. Now you may think "But there are side missions, orbs...etc to keep you busy!". While the orbs are still fun to get, after beating the game there is really no point to collect them since you are pretty much maxed out level wise. For example I could get the last level of Driving, but it doesn't really do anything of use now that the game is beaten. Also the "Destructible environment" only works online and as of when I played didn't seem to work.

    The side missions are just boring repetitive tasks that are easy. Free prisoners by using a button. Grab some info from a tower using a button. Rare occasions destroy a convoy of cars. Do some silly challenges that are boring after the first few. When it comes to jumping your car through rings there is no "medium" in difficulty. They are either SUPER easy to get or crazy hard with the climbing/jumping car that controls like your drunk and blind. The tank you can get is just "meh" and it's so hard to get that you will of beaten the game by that time. Your cars also blow up too easily. The public cars you can get are useless, except for the ramp truck as always.

    You can go around the map collecting DNA from other agents to play as. Which thankfully you can switch at any time. And each has a bonus like +10% XP driving and +5% XP agility. But really all the agents are the same with varied combos of +10% and +5%. And the sad thing is the only good character is Terry Crews character. He actually has audio that is fun to hear. Ironically if you pick another agent, all the cutscenes only show Terry's character instead. Taking you out of the moment.

    The bosses were all essentially the same and no real strategy was needed to take them down. The weapons were either very crappy or really OP. I won't say all I used but the homing rocket is what you will end up using most of the time. The gadgets/grenades were nothing of interest either. But the grenade that gives you ammo or health was a nice edition (can't recall if it was in past games). The world itself may look like its alive but it's relatively barren except for cats and a few people here or there.

    For how small the game is and how short it is, it's not worth the $60. Maybe $20 at most. Or like me you can play it free using Gamepass. Which makes me happy I didn't spend a dime on it. As much as I would like to see Crackdown 4 where they learn from their mistakes, I doubt that will happen. Though the game does hint of a "future" of the series.    … Expand

    Verdict: if Microsoft and sumo had given themselves a few more years to work on this and updated gameplay accordingly this could have been a very good exclusive but, alas, even Terry Crews and an interesting enemy storyline could not save this.

Remmber that awesome tech demo they did in 2015 where they showed a whole skyscraper being knocked down? Yeah you cant do that. Most of the buildings have indestructible beams inside them that make it so you just chunk away at the walls on it.

    The shooting is some of the worst i've ever seen in a game. The frustratingly sticky auto-lock aiming they have is even worse thanks to the environmental destruction. You can dash behind a wall to escape your enemies but it doesnt matter since they just shoot right through them and keep locked on you no matter what. So the destructible environments end up being a detriment to the gunplay.

    You get to choose from a whopping 9 guns and 2 equipment. 5 years of development and thats the best you can do??? What a joke.

    We can't recommend Crackdown 3 in good faith. It has its moments, but you need to be a fan of uncomplicated run'n'gun gameplay to enjoy them – and even then, the action takes way too long to pick up. [Issue#236, p.42]

    After such a glacial wait, it's not unreasonable to expect more. Still, in spite of its pared-back ambitions, it is such a chorus line of brainless, sugar rush thrills, you'll rarely be anything less than entertained. Let's just hope we don't have to wait until 2024 for Crackdown 4 to arrive. [Issue#225, p.65]
