13. Crackdown 3
Arriving after a 5 year wait and at one point looking to be the saviour of the Xbox One, Crackdown 3 puffed itself up, attempted to stand strong... and landed with barely a mouse fart's worth of impact.
In honesty though, it's fine. Yes it's painfully strange that Crackdown 3 is literally "just more Crackdown", the game playing almost identically to the 2007 original, albeit with Terry Crews' face plastered on top to try and bait more sales, but there are many laughs to be had.
Crackdown's 2007 template still has some life; its own brand of acrobatic combat, near-constant explosions and the lobbing of various vehicles at various gangsters is still great fun. It's a shame this turned out exactly like the doubters feared it would, but for an afternoon's play on Game Pass?
Sure.
