As the creator of the famed Grand Theft Auto franchise, Dave Jones knows a thing or two about wide-open game worlds. It's not surprising, then, that the first game from his new company Real Time Worlds takes place in a giant, persistent city that's filled with criminals. However, Crackdown is a far cry from the GTA series, in that you'll actually be playing as part of a peace-keeping force. Of course, this doesn't mean that you won't be causing widespread mayhem. In fact, during our hands-on time with the game at a posh San Francisco, we did some pretty insane stuff, which made us wonder if the city's denizens would have been better off just dealing with the criminal element surrounding them.

Still one of my all time favorite games. It hurt to see what happened to Crackdown 3 😔
Gamerheadquarters; "With the jump in power from the Xbox Series X all Xbox 360 and Original Xbox titles that are backwards compatible should be enhanced as soon as they’re available."
They’ve been working the past few years and have become proficient in that department so I definitely think they are capable of such a feat. Their BC through emulation that can natively upscale blows my mind and gives them an advantage over competitors using multiple hardware settings which requires higher clock speeds and produces more heat.
I caught Chaos Theory on sale and was actually blown away by how it scaled on the One X.
I imagine that they'll carry over the functionality of the X regarding playing previous gen games to the series X.
They better have good support for backwards compatibly.... Since they have no 1st pay games LMAO 😂
And xbox one games, there are many underperformed 3rd party games that needs frames boost.
Crackdown is a series of sandbox-style action adventure video games published by Xbox Game Studios. Retro Respawn looks at the first title.
