I'm somewhat intrigued by Crackdown 2, there's practically not story but having a literal sandbox game to just f*ck around in doesn't seem so bad.

That's why the game is so great

i like a strong narrative and a linear game style. I don't mind games like bioshock which has pseudo-sandboxy feel ... but games like GTA aren't my type. Although i will play them and have done Crackdown and will probably do the sequel, but i wouldn't buy it and i aint excited for it.

I can't remember but could you turn off that Dilweed that constantly talks sh*t over your gameplay?

'What are you doing agent!' that drove me insane!

They have to do a bit more to sell me on this one. Except for throwing cars at my unsuspecting coop partner, the first game largely bored me.

Me loving it!

I'm skint at the moment so i am gonna wait to buy this one when it goes a bit cheaper. I could rent it, but i have a feeling i wouldn't want to send it back. I loved the first game, in fact i am gonna start playing it again as i haven't even finished it yet. Who's up for co op on crackdown 1 then? I haven't even tried the co op, i remember i was gonna try co op with sarge a couple of years back but it wouldn't let us get in the game together as i had a crappy bt connection back then.

I just traded in Crackdown to get Crackdown 2.

Crackdown 2 DLC Revealed by Avatar Awards
The two mission packs are called Toy Box and Deluge

Crackdown 2's first two pieces of downloadable content are entitled Toy Box and Deluge. The names were revealed because the game gives four of its Avatar Awards to players who purchase and finish the two mission packs. For those who don't know, Avatar Awards are clothing and apparel items that players receive for completing various tasks in Crackdown 2.

Gamerzines reports that those who buy Toy Box will get a Green Agent Helmet, while those who buy Deluge will be able to use a PVP Agent Helmet. For those who finish what may be the last mission of Toy Box, something called Fly Swat, there will be a Green Agent Suit, while players who beat 15 Minutes of Maim, probably the last mission from the Deluge pack, will get their virtual hands on a PVP Agent Suit.

There has been no other information about this DLC other than that fact that it is not developed by Ruffian Games, the original company behind Crackdown 2, but by Proper Games. This studio has worked on Flock!, a puzzle title for the Xbox Live Arcade, the PlayStation Network and the PC, and the fighting game Final Fight: Double Impact, for XBLA and PSN.
