Ruffian producer, James Cope, has told IncGamers that a whole new game mode had to be dropped from Crackdown 2.
Speaking at the Microsoft X10 event in San Francisco last week, Cope said the game mode was something he wished could have been included in the final cut of the game.

It’s possibly the longest standing and harshest criticism levelled against Microsoft’s console family, and I can’t say I wholly disagree. However, there are some out there which can slip through the net every now and then. But bucking the trend was the original Crackdown, which was not one of them. It shifted a very healthy amount of units as well as drawing in universal praise from critics. A sequel then, would be a no-brainer."
It was basically crackdown 1 with zombies, was fun but corners were cut, solid game though.
Crackdown 1 was one of the underrated gems of last gen. I loved that game. Crackdown 2 was crackdown 1 with added zombies and gave the map a paint job. Disappointing, but still enjoyed it for what it was with the added wingsuit, toybox mode and 4 player co-op. Crackdown 3 was basically what Crackdown 2 should have been.
While it is unclear at this time whether its a glitch or intentional. Crackdown, and Crackdown 2 are now free for download on the Xbox store.
Crackdown 1 and 2 were both given for free to Xbox One users to celebrate their launch on the Xbox Live Store and backward compatibility support for the Xbox One. In addition to giving the games for free, Microsoft is now also giving the DLC for Crackdown 2.
It will be included in a 20 dollar dlc pack at release date and people will still buy it.
I'm fine with it, if the mode is really worth adding the 3rd game will include it.
Edit: Wow bad trolls are fast ^^^
They probably got some new other modes in stock for the game.
Not enough disk space?
don't worry you can always pay for it as dlc
As long as it has 4 player coop, 16 player multiplayer. Nothing really lost.
