Crackdown - Image 1 


This is about one of them "Did you know?" things for Capcom's superhero action title Crackdown. We won't be talking about the demo as we've seen how you've been enjoying it ever since it went live. And no, this isn't about Halo 3 beta invites and the shocking revelation that only initial shipments will have them. For the love of god, get over it.

Anyway, did you know that developer RealTime Worlds originally wanted 200 unlockable achievements for Crackdown? But a quick preview of the game's achievements, if we are not mistaken, suggests that there are only 43 achievements all in all. These total 900 gamerpoints and an additional 100 will be available once the scheduled free downloadable content appears.

So, what happened here? RealTime Worlds lead designer for the game David Jones explained, "They were only allowing 50, and we were saying, 'Oh, that's going to cripple us'. Eventually they announced they were going to a higher number." Microsoft and RTW eventually agreed on having 80 achievements.

Well, that's a lot already, and we're pretty sure you will all have a grand time unlocking all of them. And lastly, if you really want to talk about Halo 3 beta keys, David Jones shared his thoughts about the matter and how it affects Crackdown in general:

We kind of knew Crackdown would need as much help as it could get to get into players' hands. Like we've always said: It's a game player's game. It's not something that's going to sell in screenshot. So that was good.

Capcom has nothing to do with this game, It is made by Real Time Worlds, and Published by Microsoft Game Studios. No Capcom.
