The original Crackdown for the Xbox 360 was a fun little open world sci-fi shooter, but it was hardly something that we’d cover around these parts. The upcoming sequel, however, is a completely different kind of beast riddled with zombies, mutants, and more. Oh, happy day!

That’s right, kids. In the game a zombie-like virus infects many of the inhabitants of Pacific City, and when the sun goes down, all hell breaks loose.

So what happened in-between the first game and its sequel that made things take a turn for the horrific? Check out the first three of a series of five webcomics below. Things get so wonderfully nasty in them.

Look for more soon! Crackdown 2, developed by Ruffian Games and Microsoft Game Studios, hits stores on July 6th, 2010. Order your copy by clicking below.

Game Features

  • Four-player co-op.
  • Pacific City’s map remains similar: The same roads and many of the same buildings as before – although some have been changed or demolished.
  • Civilians have responded to the zombie threat by arming their cars, so players will encounter “un-scripted” battles between mutants and NPCs.
  • More varied mêlée attacks
  • Players can call in supplies at any time.
  • A “more precise” targeting system
  • Skill-based rewards
  • 16-player deathmatch with a Call of Duty 4-style progressions system.

    Scarred For Life
    Episode 267: The Legendary John Harrison and The Haunting (1963)
    This week we chat with filmmaker, producer, composer, writer, author...this guy's done it all...John Harrison. From working with George Romero on everything from Creepshow and Dawn of the Dead to Tales from the Darkside to the Dune miniseries to his Netflix series Residue...he's done it all. He even directed Tales from the Darkside: The Movie, which was Andrew LaSane's Scarred for Life pick, which is one of Terry's favorite movies. We chat about his long history in cinema; about how he started working with Romero to some insights into Tales from the Darkside. And we discuss his latest work, the novel Residue: Paramentals Rising, which is a sequel to the Netflix show. After learning about his horror history--including a memorable viewing of Night of the Living Dead--we find out why The Haunting terrified him as a twelve year old. John references an article written by Anthony McKay in Little Shoppe of Horrors, which can be ordered here. You can find Residue: Paramentals Rising wherever you buy your books or at WordFire Press.You can follow John on his website or Instagram and Facebook.Follow Mary Beth, Terry and the Podcast on Bluesky.
