As a free download to all Crackdown<\/em> owners, the “Free-For-All” pack<\/a> includes new features like a Cheat Mode, vehicle impounding to allow players to store their favorite rides in the Agency Garage, co-op trophy sequences, and “Psychotic” difficulty Time Trials. The real meat of today’s Crackdown<\/em> update comes in the “Gettin’ Busy” pack<\/a> though. For the 800 MS Points it costs, you’ll get three new vehicles, street racing tournaments, four new weapons, a stealthy new cloaking device, seven new achievements and 350 additional gamerscore points to earn, and four new competitive game modes, including Max-Agility Rooftop Races, Stockpile, Checkpoint Chase and Rocket Tag. Anyone on the fence about whether the 800 MS Points will be worth it can actually demo the content out for one play session with another player who has purchased and unlocked the new material.<\/p>\n
For someone like me who thought Crackdown<\/em> was far too shallow and light on lasting appeal, Microsoft Game Studios and Realtime Worlds’ newly released downloadable content should give it the boost in replay value it so desperately needed. Today’s downloadable content comes in two packages: the completely free “Free-For-All” Bonus Pack and the premium “Gettin’ Busy” Bonus Pack for 800 MS Points.<\/p>\n
