I've noticed a lot of people getting worried/slating this game because its coming with the Halo3 Beta Invite; i.e worried MS are trying to sell a poor game with the Halo3 offer.
I urge those thinking like that to do a little more research into the game, its been into development for sometime now and is from the guy who create the GTA/Lemmings series!
The videos look great fun aswell, with seemless co-op and no boundaries aswell (you could be miles apart (obviously ingame)) this type of co-op mode recently introduce with GoW having a friend just join and carry one, though when he leaves it doesnt quit your game.
The graphics in some videos look quite poor, but the visual range is astonishing and with so much going on at once, explosions, vast city scapes, many characters on screen it doesnt appear to slow down what so ever!
A Few Links:
IGN: 10 Reasons to play Crackdown
10 Part Video Walkthrough
Gametrailers Link (Make sure you watch the Co-Op one if any at all - 2nd one down under Gameplay i think)
This game look a hell of a lot of fun, and if the MS Certification process didnt bodge up we coulda had a demo today (both SP and Co-Op) it has been confirmed before the end of Jan though, with the games retail release being Feb 23rd (i think) for the UK.
So please at least try the demo before thinking they have added the beta invite simply because its a pap game - i think its more because its an MS Studios game and one of the earlier releases from them before the beta is due to start and they wanna make sure people have the chance, nothing more.
/Edit
Also just say you got the game a few weeks after release and your character stats were not good enough and you kept dieing on a mission, (according to the sites official forums) you could have a friend who is a higher character either a) jump in and help in co-op mode, or b) send tehre characters DNA to you to allow you to have their abilities for a 5minute window
I seriously suggest you watch the 10 part walkthrough its very good
