The original Crackdown is currently available to 'purchase' for free from Xbox Live; this doesn't appear to require a Gold subscription. At a guess, this may be linked to X018, but at the time of posting there's not yet been any official announcement to my knowledge.

The game is part of the Xbox One backwards-compatibility programme.

    It was a Games for Gold in August 2013, are you sure you didn't pick it up then?

    I'd picked it up then, so it was available to install.

    I found all 800 and for days afterwards I could hear the orb sound pulsing away - even when walking around town and not playing the game!! my ears had become tuned to anything that sounded like it to track them down!

    Maybe not healthy, but so much fun and can't wait for 3

    Currently playing RDR2 on 1X in glorious native 4K. but I’ve picked this up loved crackdown 1 and 2. 100% will be playing 3.

    Been playing Spider-Man and it very much reminded me of crackdown! I haven't touched by xbox 360 in years will I have to do all the updates I missed to download?

    I replayed this recently on my One S, it still looks and plays great.

    Its still a fantastic game - powering up & levelling up is great fun - Orb collecting

    Cannot wait for Crackdown 3 if it ever comes! Hopefully Feb19

    loved this game, missed when it was GWG as i was like don't matter as i still got the disc so big regret there. If you watch tomorrow at 9 on Mixer, you'll get some freebies, not sure what, but he did mention stuff for Forza

    how do you remember with such accuracy bro?

    I only got this game originally because it gave you free access to the Halo 3 (or was it 2?) beta. I ended up playing this more than Halo! Fantastic game, although the sound of the orbs still haunts me to this day! I might go back and finish collecting them all.

    Awesome!Anyone know why it’s free?


    I believe its because of the Xbox conference that they are holding tomorrow this must be a little freebie to get people excited for Crackdown 3.
  25. deleted1289934's avatar
    But importantly, does it come with the Halo 3 beta?

    I managed all the orbs, although it took some time! It was the stunt jumps that I never finished. I got 45 of the 50 (inc.DLC) achievements so not too shabby!

    Awesome just grabbed it
    Also 2 of the 3 DLC are free too so you may want to add that. The free for all pack and four play pack.

    Fun game but used to have dreams / nightmares trying to imagine where the last few orbs were.
    Got them all in on the end but you spend hours scanning the roof top

    Yes it will, you need to deactivate the console you are selling as your home console.

    You realise that you're disagreeing with pretty much the entirety of the gaming community, including Microsoft themselves?

    You have to play Crackdown.. It will take a few minutes to get the hang of controls and graphics.. Back in the day this was top notch.

    You'll thank me later.. Its like Robo cop with Achievements, a cool narrative and narrator!

    Make sure you give it a try.. I was glued to it way back when!!
