Heads up for those of you that own a 360 or this generation X-box since it runs on both:

I loved the original but couldn't last more than 2-3 hours in the sequel. I don't even know why I hated it, but it just didn't grab me like the first.

A franchise that got sold on the Halo 3 beta that was included.

I forgot all about that, but I guess it did make sense, also what made it such a sleeper hit.

Game was just so simple and the jumping and collecting of orbs so satisfying

The first game was so ahead of its time. They accomplished smooth design and code for networked co-op gameplay stuff that Saint Row 2 was having trouble with a year later, and still hadn't really got straight by SR3 in 2011.

Crackdown 1 was lit - even made a vid of me finding that last fucking orb.

Crackdown 2 was dogshit

Havent looked at anything about Crackdown 3, dont have much interest personally. Maybe rent on Gamefly or wait till game is like $10 after a week
