I've said it before and I'll say it again:
Anyone who was willing to fork over $60 for Crackdown should have no problem spending the same amount on ODST. Crackdown was at best a mediocre game, and its only redemptive quality was the invitation to the Halo 3 beta included therein.
ODST, in huge contrast, will certainly be better than Crackdown as far as gameplay value goes, and will also include the entire Halo 3 multiplayer experience along with every single map as well as an invite to the Halo: Reach beta.
If you do the math, ODST is more than worth the $60 to anyone even moderately interested in Halo as a franchise.
At WORST Crackdown was a mediocre game. Sure, the multiplayer wasn't that good, but that's usually not what you look for in a sandbox game where you basically have super powers. I look for single player fun, like, do I get to choose what I do, or is there always another mission that I HAVE to do. I liked getting one of those long range gun and just headshotting the enemies on the ground.
Crackdown wasn't a multiplayer game, it was an open-world sandbox game, a really good one at that. This is my opinion, and you have your own, I really liked the game, and it seems you didn't. I think ODST will be really fun too.
