I’m not easily impressed during the middle of a game demo. For the sake of professionalism, I try to curb my excitement and view whatever game I’m seeing with an analytic point of view. With that being said, I couldn’t help but grin like a complete idiot during the entirety of Ubisoft’s unveiling of The Crew, a next-gen massively multiplayer arcade racer that allows players to burn rubber across the entirety of the United States.
I was amazed at how seamless The Crew ran. The power of the Xbox One was clearly on display in the fidelity of the visuals (the game is absolutely gorgeous), but what’s even more impressive was the complete lack of loading throughout my time with the game. One moment I was cruising in and out of traffic in Manhattan, the next I was driving on the beaches of Miami. You see, The Crew allows players to zoom out at anytime to a map of the entire United States, move the cursor anywhere in the country, then instantly warp to that location. On top of this, you can swap cars on the fly, again with a complete lack of loading.
