Game Informer Unveils Crackdown 2 Details

The upcoming issue of Game Informer magazine will unveil some details about the four player co-op game Crackdown 2.  Continuing on from the first game, it appears a zombie virus is spreading, and the civilians have banded together to form a gang and destroyed the Agency.  Day and night will play a crucial role in the game, and freaks will be bigger and badder than before.  

Of course someone managed to get their hands on the article early and leaked a ton more information regarding the game and its features.  

Support points are gone, instead agents can call in supplies anytime The overall look of the game is grittier, but still retains the style of the original Repetitive boss battles are gone More instances where co-op is prudent Vehicles have room for mounted guns, great for co-op action While most vehicles are returning, there are new ones like a helicopter The city is mostly identical, but decays over time as the infection spreads New weapons like the rail gun 16 player competitive multiplayer with skill progression system

Wow, sounds like quite a bit of stuff, especially for co-op.  No release date was given.
