I just watched the trailer and I was not expecting to see what I did tbh. As soon as I heard the words "infected" and "you're the cure", I thought to myself "Oh no". Still, my reservations about the plot aside, I'll probably still be getting this game mainly because I loved the first one so much.

Agreed. I really hope the game doesn't revolve around zombies as I've just played L4D for the last month or so and would just get fed up. Plus Left 4 Dead 2 is coming out which would only just make things worse!

There seemed to be an infected or zombie-like element in the teaser trailer. Many games use that as a cover for poor AI or limited action.


JC I’ve publicly put on the site before that I think our trailer completely won E3. It did a fantastic job. I share the concerns about the infected thing, but we had those elements in the first game. It’s right for people to theorise and expect, but we’re not going to support one theory over another – we’re just excited that there are so many opinions.

To deal with these new challenges, new weapons will naturally make an appearance. GameInformer describes a few of these, such as a UV Shotgun that blasts the infected with light, a better sniper rifle, and the "mag" grenade that will stick whatever it hits to another "mag." These magnetic weapons also are said to work on cars, enabling players to do wacky things with them.

Thy Players Shall Be Degenerate Orb Whores (Again)


You know what they say, 'once an addict always an addict', and we've got to be honest with you, we were crazily addicted to orb-hunting in the original Crackdown. Thinking about having a whole new set to collect in the sequel is churning up our stomachs and giving us cold sweats. Oh dark orb mother, once again we shall suckle at your humming teat.
