Crackdown 2's licensed music doesn't come near playing by the rules
Throw your totalitarian tracks on the ground! This is justice, your style!
We've been playing Crackdown 2. We've been listening to the licensed music. So, to answer the press release we received today, yes, we did know that the game features "an extensive soundtrack with hits from icons of rebellion." Man, it's crazy rebellious. In fact, the press release describes the music as "fantastic (or crazy)," so you know it's fantastic, or crazy! Crazy licensed, y'all!
Above: We reject your structure, man!
Our only real complaint is about some of the remixes - according to Executive Editor Brett Elston, the Bad Moon Rising remix is "awwwful." Some songs just don't need mashy-mixificating. Here's the full track list:
