As the pious people say, ask and ye shall receive. Unfortunately this doesn't seem to work for winning lotto tickets, adult film stars or motor bikes materialising before you're eyes. It did work for Crackdown 2 images that I asked for a scant two weeks ago, so I've got that going for me.

The images show you're agent sporting a rather burly looking suit of armour (although I miss the funky hair do's and tribal tattoos they sported in the first one, I hope they haven't taken out the head customisation) and a whole host of new weapons. It appears the ambling infected/mutant/zombie monsters from Left 4 Dead (and Uncharted, Prototype, Fallout 3, inFamous, Resident Evil 5... sigh) are making an appearance in Pacific City as well. There is canonical reason for this though, the original Crackdown featured misshapen mutants who were released on the street after a certain mission was completed late in the game. It still feels a little seen it all before, even if Crackdown 2 has precedent to throw in the IMZ's. Oh, I made an acronym.

The hammer drop move that was added to the Crackdown expansion appears again, with added blood bursting

Agency vehicles will now feature gunning positions for passengers so they don't just sit and fiddle with the radio

Seems you can improvise melee weapons from the local scenery for some IMZ smackdown

The explosions still look as Saturday Morning fun as they did in the last game, hurray!

You better believe there's gonna be orbs, orb rly? It's gonna be orbgasmic, I have more, but I'll stop

The game still has its cartoon cell shaded look that made the original such a hit (with me at least)

Sure, you're an unstoppable force of armoured super powered destruction, but it's still refreshing playing an open world sandbox game as a cop for once
