Crackdown vs Halo 3 Beta

Now that the Halo 3 Beta has been out for a couple weeks I wanted to get everyone’s thoughts on if buying Crackdown was worth it. Personally, I’m happy with my decision to rent Crackdown. I don’t really have a desire to play it now that I beat it (although I may check out the new content), and I have a friend who doesn’t have internet access that loaned me his Crackdown to check out the Halo 3 beta. Even if he had not I don’t think I would be that concerned because I can play the full version of Halo 3 in a few months and there are plenty of great game to keep me occupied until then. Crackdown was a fun game, but in my opinion not worth $60. Even with the included 3 weeks of the Halo 3 beta. There is no replay value once you beat the story so why buy it when you can rent it. So, what are your thoughts on it? Was Crackdown worth the money? Did you buy it just for the Halo 3 beta? If so, was that worth it? Leave a comment and let me know.
