Even 12 years on, we’re still addicted to hunting down Crackdown’s floating green spheres Dave Meikleham.
Do you enjoy obsessively hoovering up collectibles? Are you the sort of diligent soul that spent countless weekends gathering eagle feathers in Assassin’s Creed II or wasted their evenings shooting every last pigeon in Grand Theft Auto IV? Well, let me issue you a little health warning: stay away from Crackdown. If you let it, this superhero sandbox will eat your existence thanks to the most ruinously addictive collectathon in Xbox history.
Actually, that should read “eat your existence… again”. Real time Worlds’ cult, crime-fighting open world recently received a 4K Xbox One X patch, making this super powered treat newly eye-alluring. The week the update was released, I immediately looked out my original 360 disc, gave it a little wipe – soooo many scratches – and proceeded to spend the next fortnight exercising my agent’s heroic calves in the pursuit of my favourite gaming collectible ever.
