So the game is out today in the states. I didn't care much about this game at first, but as I learned more about it and eventually played the demo, I'm really looking forward to it.

A lot of folks will probably see this game on the same level as Zone of the Enders (and to a lesser extent, Dragon Quest 8) because the game comes with access to the Halo 3 Beta. It's not entirely bad to be grouped with ZOE and DQ8, because each of those were very good games. Crackdown is looking to be another fun experience.

One editor of 1up.com, on his personal site, gave a pretty good rundown of the game. I'm sure you'll see reviews popping up soon if they haven't already, but this game was good enough for this guy to write up a sort of review on his personal time, without getting paid for it.

So I thought I'd raise awareness for the game, though chances are if you already own a 360 you know about the game. For people balancing the systems on a scale to figure out which to buy, here's another stone on the 360 side.
