    Answer: 75 characters is between 10 words and 19 words with spaces included in the character count. If spaces are not included in the character count, then 75 characters is between 12 words and 25 words.

    Plutôt fun à jouer, du moins pour la parti solo, Crackdown 3.est un bon défouloir sans prétentions. En revanche le multi n'est vraiment pas terrible, trop brouillon et pas amusant.

    First game was blast, second bad and third pretty ok.
    Minus: repetitive, bosses, story
    Plus: fun, gamplay, art style, narrator, parkour

    I really enjoyed the first Crackdown game but sadly I was not into this one. Repetitive missions, odd graphics, and unfulfilled promises. I would not recommend this game unless you are a big fan of the franchise. However, there are some segments of the game that are quite fun ,such as fighting multiple enemies, but in the end things get pretty much the same. I did not try the coop though.

    The game is short but fun to play. I kind of like the comic book style graphics but I really got annoyed by the platforming portion of the gameplay and ridiculously unreadable map espeasally in the center of the city. I would recommend the game though.

    An improvement over Crackdown 2, but that isn't saying much. Gameplay is fun. The inclusion of Terry Crews was certainly welcome, however he is more of a "Skin" cameo, if you will.

    But the gameplay loop needed a little more

    Jogo é divertido, porém, parece um jogo de geração passada, as mecânicas estão ultrapassadas e a história não empolga. O mais grave é o Marketing falso em questão do processamento em nuvem que foi muito mal utilizado nesse jogo, o modo multiplayer não precisava nem existir.

    Es un juego adictivo, dan ganas de regresar a completar una misión, carrera o una búsqueda de objetos. Lo mejor: La música, los controles en combate, saltando techos, vuelo y conducción.

    In the end... its a "okay" game with the objective of being fantastic which can disappoint a lot of fans.

At the start the game feels slow and sluggish but once you start building the abilities up, the games really starts feeling like the first Crackdown on 360. But that was about it for me really.

    Probably the most generic and middle of the road sandbox game you'll play this generation. This game does what many have done before and doesn't bring anything else to the table, so you may as well just dust off Crackdown 1 or 2, or something like Saints Row IV.

    Sans doute le meilleur des 3 grâce à de gros progrès de prise en main et jouabilité. L'interface est bien agréable et très ergonomique, le personnage (masculin ou féminin au choix parmi une galerie qu'on débloque au fur et à mesure) est parfaitement maniable malgré une nervosité un peu exagérée (un souci d'accélération du stick probablement) sur les surfaces étroites.

Mais on est pas dans un Assassin's Creed et les bâtiments ne sont pas pensés pour être escaladés en toute décontraction...

    Si la ville est belle en effet, sa verticalité excessive devient laborieuse (un défaut déjà relevé dans les précédents épisodes) et en fait un "jeu de plate-formes" assez désagréable. Il convient alors de récolter le maximum d'orbes, seul moyen de sauter encore et toujours plus haut : un sacerdoce dont on se serait aisément passé à dire vrai...

    Super ultra bourrin, le jeu assume en tout cas ses qualités de bourrineur hors pair avec tout un éventail d'armes de destruction qui ne font pas dans le détail. Et heureusement, car l'action y est rapidement et toujours frénétique, complètement enragée ! même le Doom 2016 censé être le parangon de l'action survoltée ne peut lutter à armes égales, lui qui nous perd régulièrement dans des niveaux labyrinthyques très vides après avoir nettoyé. Rien de tel ici, l'action est à chaque coin de rue ou de toit, sans compter toutes les zones à pacifier...

    Et puis Crackdown 3 est très beau, tourne en 4K sur la X et fait fort bel usage de l'Unreal 4 que l'on avait pas vu à pareille fête depuis... Gears of War 4, le monde ouvert en plus. Le ton général n'est certainement pas très "sérieux", la VF hargneuse et souvent vulgaire en témoigne : on est là pour ramener l'ordre... dans un maximum de désordre : on dirait tout un congrès de gilets cons avec camardes syndiqués en colère pour vous con-seiller et vous exhorter à ramener la justice sociale, massacres explosifs à l'appui. Ou au corps-à-corps !

    Tout cela est tout-à-fait amusant mais dangereusement répétitif tout de même... on se lasse surtout de l'escalade imposée et pénible vers la fin du jeu, pour atteindre les derniers boss. Dommage, car si on sent le potentiel d'un tel défouloir, les choix douteux de design nuisent décidément trop à ses ambitions.    … Expand

    Now as far as story goes, there is not much here, but if you walk into this game and accept it for what it is ( a mindless platforming, orb collecting, super hero shooter) then I guarantee you will easily burn through 15 to 20 hours of Crackdown 3 with a smile on your face.

    If you're looking for a fun open world third person shooter this game will have you covered. Crackdown 3 will not have a deep story, but it will have some mindless fun. I can only recommend it more if you have the Game Pass then it is a must otherwise I would say wait for it to be in the BARGAIN BIN.

You can play as characters who aren't Terry Crews if you're some kind of drooling idiot. Play this game if you know how to turn a sandbox into a rad experience. And when I say "rad," I mean it in the most ironically cool, 80s actionesque, explosiony way possible. No, this game doesn't have a particularly deep story or likable characters (Terry Crews actually seems to have been drained of some of his natural charisma in addition to his muscles), but it does have a uniquely stupid and entertaining open world to explore and destroy.
    I can't say I'd recommend spending money to buy it. If you have game pass, check it out.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Reseña - Crackdown 3

    Bloqueo, bloqueo, bloqueo… es lo que deberías hacer con Crackdown 3.

    Uno de los juegos que más Hype ha tenido de manera exclusiva para Microsoft, es Crackdown 3, que había sido anunciado desde 2014 y que por fin ha llegado, sin hacerle honor al peso de su franquicia.

    El juego se podría resumir como un simulador de caos, donde los disparos y los saltos largos están a la orden del día. En esta entrega haces parte de un grupo llamado The Agency, donde hacer justicia y acabar con diferentes tipos de enemigos.

    Conforme avanzas en la partida, puedes tomar orbes para hacerte más poderoso y destruir todo a tu paso, siempre y cuando tengas cuidado, ya que matar civiles te convertirá en el blanco de una linda recompensa.

    Para generar rejugabilidad y compromiso del jugador, se utilizan mecánicas divertidas y metas interesantes por cumplir, que se vuelven una obligación con el pasar del tiempo y dejan de ser una elección, haciendo que todo parezca una orden para el usuario, quitando lo entretenido que tenia la variedad de las entregas anteriores.

    En un lapso de 7 horas puedes acabar la campaña y el contenido ingame es casi nulo, haciendo que el único recurso para continuar sea el multijugador, donde los recursos son tan escasos como en el modo original, haciendo que el jugador deba buscar algo más para jugar.

    Crackdown 3: Un espera que no valió la pena.

    Si has jugado los títulos pasados de Crackdown, es mejor que ignores la existencia de esta tercera entrega, ya que te puedes desilusionar con lo que es el juego. Crackdown 3 peca al querer ser una versión idéntica de las entregas anteriores, sin tener el sabor de juego que nos motiva a seguir jugando, haciendo que la experiencia se sienta aburrida y poco variada. Las armas y las habilidades carecen de variedad, lo que hace que todo se siente igual y que cuando alcanzas el estado máximo, ningún enemigo te genere un reto a la altura.

    Por la parte gráfica y sonora, los colores de Neon y la voz de Terry Crews para latinoamérica, no son suficiente para generar la idea de inmersión del jugador, haciendo que cada intento de juego pase en un instante y sea irrelevante.

    Es triste que esté revés vaya en contra de todo lo que Microsoft ha tratado de hacer para levantar su serie de juegos exclusivos, teniendo increíbles aciertos como Forza Horizon 4 y Halo Wars 2. Esperamos que la apertura de los nuevos estudios permitan crear un nuevo Crackdown a futuro, que cumpla todas las expectativas.

    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]
