David Jaffe's Criminal Crackdown First Look

God of War director David Jaffe is working with Incognito to bring this cops n' robbers multiplayer, action/party game to PS3. Gamers will take the role of a bounty hunter careening around a stylish cartoon world on the hunt for criminals on the loose. They will attempt to apprehend criminals and toss them back in the slammer before other bounty hunters can steal them and collect the reward money. Criminal Crackdown is a combination of demolition derby gameplay, crazy weapon pickups, humor and a throwback to classic arcade and sports games.

CC offers gamers multiple weapons, more than 10 vehicles to choose from, and four levels of gameplay in 1080p resolution. Both online and split screen multiplayer are available for this downloadable title.

I thought he said he was working on a PSP game with Incog?I think some one got the story wrong. :(

DJ6489d ago

Dave Jaffe was working an a PSP title called HL with the Incognito team, but the fact that Warhawk has become such an ambitious and enormous title became very strenous on the two teams (Santa Monica and Incog) forced him to put it on the backburner. He sees Warhawk as being more important at the moment.

Thus he created this title in a very short amount of time, and it's something he's wanted to do for a while. He was pretty happy with the fact that the title came together so fast and effortlessly.

Trust me it shows. This game looks stoopid.

...but if I was, I'd be PISSED that GOW2 is coming to PS2 and not PS3, while Jaffe wastes time on weak sh*t like this.

DJ6489d ago

What would be better. Exposing God of War to 4 million PS3 owners or 104 million PS2 owners? BTW, God of War 2 is being directed by Jaffe's Senior Animator from God of War 1. He's assisting with the title, but doing other things as well.

THWIP6489d ago

You won't find many PS2 fans, who weren't shocked/upset that GOW2 wasn't going to be a PS3 launch title...or at least come to PS3 in 2007. Sony has precious few solid third-party exclusives for the PS3, and that game would've sold millions of consoles for them.

this has got to be some sort of sony live arcade title

THWIP6489d ago

...you win a prize! (though a smack on the back of your head would be more fitting)

if it has a good gameplay.. this title can be a lot of fun.

Mortal Kombat 9 Is Still NetherRealm's Best Game 13 Years Later

Salman from Tech4Gamers writes "Mortal Kombat 9 revived the series from a low point after bringing it back to 2D combat. It marked a new high-point for the franchise due to its incredible roster, exciting cinematic story mode, and high-octane combat."

Shaolin Monks is a forgotten gem. I would love to see a new one, or a remake of the old.

That game was actually goated. It was the first time ever that I actually tried to get good at a fighting game. Unfortunately the online connection was so dogshit it made it hard to enjoy and eventually I gave up. Haven't really played much fighting games since.

The Industry Needs To Modernize These 6 Fantastic Classics

The Simpsons: Hit and Run, The Legend of Dragoon, and Chrono Trigger would benefit substantially from a modern remake.

Knightofelemia1d 4h ago (Edited 1d 4h ago )

The Xenosaga trilogy, the Wild Arms games, Xenogears, Parasite Eve, Dino Crisis, Suikoden. The Warriors game I know nothing about but it looks interesting. Anybody can do a list of games they want to see get modernized I would lose my shit if Namco brought the Xenosaga trilogy to modern consoles.
