Replay functionality is only truly worthwhile when A) you can pull off crazy stunts in-game or B) there are loads of laughter-inducing glitches. Anyone who has played Skate knows what I'm talking about here. The original Crackdown certainly falls under that first category, and I'm willing to bet Crackdown 2 won't be any different.
Video replays "won't be there at release, but that doesn't mean we're not going to work on it. We want to do it properly," executive producer Peter Connolly told OXM.
"People did a lot of things in the first game that we didn't really know could be done. We've expanded it a bit now so we're expecting them to do more with it this time," he explains. "A replay system in a four-player co-op game is not a simple task, and we want to do it well."
As you hopefully guessed, implementing such a feature would eat up a nice chunk of time, and the team only has so many people working to get Crackdown 2 out the door. Unless they have a hidden room with 100 monkeys working 100 computers to create this DLC, it's safe to say Ruffian isn't holding content back on purpose.

"bitches love sandcastles" ... yet, there is no sandcastle in that photo. We may never truly understand his ways.

We want to wait to charge you properly.
Lawl, I kid. Sort of.
Not hatin', just sayin'. Magnalon's got the right idea.
In all honesty though, if I really want it, I'll pay a nominal fee.
Damn, I'm really sad now.
True, but "Gettin' Busy" was $5.
Like someone above me said, if it's worthwhile, I'll buy it. (I buy DLC all the time, after all.) I just don't hold out any hope that it'll be free.
But I'm skeptical of it since it jumped ship from RTW.
Hell I'll likely get it anyway.
I just read on Kotaku that Sony cut an epilogue from GoW3, but said they "might release it later." Have fun paying for that.
And here I thought developers only cut content from games to "gimp" them for the 360?
How do you feel about backwards compatibility being removed? How do you feel about Sony HOME?
Have you even played a 360? I sincerely doubt it. Crackdown is a fun game. Period. It's not on the PS3 and I hope that's okay with you.
Home is ahead of it's time, huh? Maybe it's in a different universe. Last time I checked, it's a horrible attempt at snagging some advertising dollars.
Don't give me that "less than noble" crap like Sony's shit doesn't stink. They do tons of dirty things to nickel and dime their customers, just like Microsoft and Nintendo. You might even enjoy it when Sony takes advantage of you, seeing as you like anything they do regardless of it's merits.
Leave him alone, he'll get bored when he realises dickwaving his favorite console does absofuckinglutely nothing.
Why is UnPatriot posting on a xbox game? You don't own a 360. Plus, i wonder, how old are you? I would guess 15 or 16. Maybe younger. I can't see someone with maturity posting nonesense every day, all day long, and every comment is a statment about SONY. Do you have stock in sony? How many shares do you own? If sony sold turds, would you buy it, and polish it? I came to this site hoping for good game discussion from people that like games, all games, because that is what a a true gamer does in my mind, not being biased against all not sony! I have probably been gaming longer than you have been on this good earth of ours! Sony has given gamers some good (best times is your opinion) times, and will continue to, BUT guess what, so does NINTENDO and Microsoft, and PC's, and Atari, and Commodore, and Sega, and the list goes on, and on, and will continue to grow as time passes. It is always about the games, not the machine the game is put into! Get over yourself, and get off of Sony, it is like you continue to rape and molest them, an annoying stalker that cannot get the picture-people dont like your comments, period. they add nothing! nothing at all! Now, as a post should be about the GAmES-story,
Crackdown was a fun game, i really enjoyed it, but it could have been so much more, and that is what I am hoping from the crackdown 2!
I lik eto read what Corduroy and mrandydixon usually has to say.
