X360 - Crackdown demo!

So after 20 minutes and one mission it seems pretty much exactly like GTA with fancier graphics, some things ripped off from Just Cause, and nothing else really exciting. But I felt this same way about the Saint's Row demo. What is supposed to be hot about this game?
 
just got done doing a coop game with buddy until hour time limit hit. it felt like a gta clone at first, but further into it, it was definetly not gta. i had a ton of fun playing this. the upgrades system is a blast. buddy and i were upgrading our guys strength and we were running around kicking around cars and jumping 30 feet in the air, it was actually alot more fun that i expected. i guess you can pick up cars and toss them into the river when gangs drive at you.

game wont be for everyone, but after playing about a hour and a half, im about 99% sure ill get this one at launch. ill agree that it seems like gta at first, but beyond that initial few 10-20 mins, it becomes more of its own game. and coop really makes it alot more fun. watching another player come tearing by you and smear into a group of gang members is great.
 
It's pretty fun, especially coop, where you can work together, fight each other, or just do separate things.

It looks GTA like but when you play it you quickly find it isn't, it's more like a super hero comic book based game, and that's what the visuals are supposed to represent. It's also faster paced than GTA.
 
Saying this game is like GTA, is like saying Gears of War is like Half-Life, or that NFS: Most Wanted, is like Gran Turismo 4. It's like GTA in the sense that it's a sandbox-style/world game (like NFS and Gran Turismo are racing games). But past that....Crackdown, and GTA are very different.
 
exactly, at first, it appears that way, but after a few mins of playing around, you find other than setting, its not very similar after all. the coop is the way to go though, i can see by yourself not as fun. but i had a blast doing coop. gonna play some more tonight, should be awesome
