Okat of GTA sucked to him it's his opinion. CRACK sucks but more than 20 million ppl buy it. Just let this guy have his own opinion. Crackdown is offering something new to console games. Awsome art approach. Creativity is a important. And the first GTA series were very creative. Finaly something that is not a remake from a 10 year old game. Still a no buy for me Just like GTA, because GTA did suck. to me. I like what Saints Row looks like though. They have made the spin on GTA that I was looking for.

I'm really looking forward to this game.
however, one thing about the graphics is bothering me - the only objects casting shadows are the people (and maybe the cars, didn't check).
This looks really odd on that bridge screenie.
The people walking on the bridge are casting shadows on the building below, but the bridge is not, so you get this "floating appendage" effect from the shadows.
Also, on screenshot #6, it's hard for my eyes to visualize any dimension where the buildings come in contact with the ground (again, because of lack of casted shadows).
So, that's the only part of the game that I have a problem with right now.
The graphics are awesome and the gameplay sounds like its a few steps ahead of other games in the genre.

That 11th screenshot.............. The front tire and rim are reaaaaaaaaally messed up.
Also I dont like this artstyle
Yeah they do, it looks like they put the bump maps in the wrong spot. I've done that before when modeling cars, it's all about axis rotation. However it could be due to the fact that he's lifting it up in the air, and might have smashed the tire itself.
