Freshly announced to join Sony's Live Arcade-rivaling downloadable games service, you can get your first look at felon-ferrying party game Criminal Crackdown in the Movies tab above.
A side-project from God of War creator David Jaffe, the four-player runabout seems to have more in common with his early Twisted Metal games, offering missile-launching, mallet-battering car combat. But its cartoony visuals, exaggerated physics and top-down viewpoint all point to a much more light-hearted game than Jaffe's usual.
It's the kind of game that could really shine in multiplayer - set to be available for a $15 download in the PS3 "launch window," between November 17 and Christmas, we'll see then whether Jaffe's pulled off another heist or is just criminally insane.
