Adding more excitement to Pacific City, Microsoft Games Studio and Ruffian Games have announced “Toy Box” Game add-on and paid upgradable content DLC for Crackdown 2.

If you’re anything like me, you played and enjoyed the original Crackdown game. However, you’re probably also wondering where the hell the mutant alien invasion terrorizing the Pacific City streets in the sequel came from …
Remember those amazing battle scenes from the movie 300? A small group of Spartans packed in tight preparing to take on a massive horde of Persians?

Fans of the first Crackdown, like myself, will be able to experience the sequel in demo format prior to the game’s release much like they did with the original. In an interview with IGN, Crackdown 2 Producer, James Cope, revealed the following: “You can definitely expect a demo to hit Live before the game is [...]
