Half an hour with an awesome-looking game that isn’t even out yet is a real treat. However, this sneak peek just doesn’t cut it for some players. Savvy Xbox 360 users have found a way to finagle the Crackdown 2 demo to allow more than 30 minutes of play time.
Here’s the scoop:
Start the game
Select your agent
As soon as you select your agent, unplug the 360 from the internet
Follow onscreen prompts
Start new game with frozen 30 minute timer
Reconnect to Xbox Live
Invite co-op buddies!
Warning: Apparantly, if you start up any race events, whether on a rooftop or in a car, it will quit the game, so be careful. Not a bad exchange for unlimited play! it helps make the wait for the Xbox 360 title's July 6 release more bearable.
Enjoy it while you can, I predict you’ll see this story updated with an update that renders this glitch useless soon.

Microsoft has also launched a Facebook app with strong ties to said demo. Chuck’s Ducks 2 (available here) is a “carnival-inspired game” that will feed you an allotment of duck-shaped sticky bombs for use in Crackdown 2′s multiplayer component. Playing Chuck’s Ducks 2 will also unlock a harder difficulty level in the Crackdown 2 demo which is probably neat if you’re into that whole punching-yourself-in-the-leg thing.
The Crackdown 2 demo goes live today, giving players a jump on their retail version achievements and extra goodies for those who play the tie-in Facebook game. More »
