Crackdown

Guide Ben Breaker (and his pal, Andy Attacker, in two-player mode) as they run around the scrolling buildings planting bombs, shooting evil men or beating them up viciously.

What We Said Then

Jaz: I enjoyed playing this great arcade conversion - it features a tense and exciting atmosphere as you sneak around planting bombs and avoiding baddies.

Matt: Crackdown was a fun coin-op to play, and the Megadrive version retains almost all of the arcade's playability, but with slightly smaller graphics - hardly surprising considering the size of the coin-op's screen!

What We Say Now

Jaz: I've gone off the arcade game now, and the slowdown in two-player mode is really irritating, especially as this was designed to be a head-to-head game. 15% off all the ratings.

Rich: Although this game is still mildly entertaining. I found the pace very slow (and the slowdown in two-player mode is excruciating). I'd take the marks down around 10% - Crackdown is okay, but nothing special at all.
