GTA 2 was surprisingly awesome. at first, just by looking at the graphics behind the box tells you that its going to be a crappy game, but think again. the graphics in the game may look old but it doesn't kill the game. being able to join one of the three gangs, you put yourself in the streets of nyc as you try to get a reputation at one of the gangs. you can hijack cars with a simple push of a button and be the most wanted crimnal. though, this game should not be played by kids under 12 because it does have some certain adult content such as going out on the streets and giving out illegal drugs and alot of violence. the music in the game is very good as it has good liquid and rock music, but it could only be heard if youre in a vechile. the intro fmv gets you hyped up for this game. i say its a true holiday must have.
5x better than the first

If you liked the first, this one will blow you away. It is so amazing how all the gangs interact and how every action has a reaction, be it a lowering of popularity or your death. Try it and be blown away by the AI. Sure it may not be pretty, but it sure is fun.

I have played a demo of GTA2 and first thought it was pretty dumb. Once the mission started, I got hooked. This game is a lot of fun and very addicting. As a player of Metal Gear Solid and Syphon Filter, I have to recommend this game too. For mature only due to all the violence. Just allow yourself atleast an hour to play 'cause like I said, it is addicting.
Really cool game!

Grand Theft Auto was very cool. It is a game which you just play for fun. You can steal cars, work for gangs, and other stuff. I like the tanks in this game. I also like to make the police mad but you need a code which will make you hard to kill. The parents probably hate this game because of the language they say.
The bad things: graphics are terribly. You can hardly see where you are shooting. Second, it is so easy to die. Third, the game at first is really cool but it does get boring after you play the games a few times. So in other words, this game is cool for the people who like wild games.
This game rocks!

I was really looking forward to this after playing the PC demo for hours on end and let me tell you -- this game is great! There's so many cars, it's hard to choose. and the missions are awesome too. You need this one. I give it five stars.

I am sorry, but in a world where this kind of violence is in the everday (I am from L.A.), I find this kind of game repulsive. The social negligence of the makers of this game is outrageous. I am not a conservative or a human rights tree-hugger type of person... just a concerned citizen in my mid 20's... This is NOT entertainment - this is a sickness.
This game is sooo cool

Gta2 is definately a fun game. It's kind of hard and there is a lot of swearing, crime, and violence. The graphics are also a lot better on the computer than the psx but I kind of like the way that the psx handles better. It's kind of a toss up but I give the psx version a 4.
You need a sense of humor to enjoy!

Some start by saying this game is sick, rather it is a fun game to play or even just watch. The language is suspect but funny that is why it is teen rated. It is a one player game but as I said it is fun to watch. You can follow the map and assist or just sit back and enjoy. OK the graphics aren't the best, but I'm not big on graphics because my sense of imagination is enough. There are passwords you can get from the internet which give the game a cool twist. You will find yourself sitting and playing for huors at first but after a while you'll find you need to use the save mode or you'll lose all you worked for. If graphics isn't a number one priority on you list and you have a sense of humor this game is a good game for you.
loads of laughs

i first got gta2 for christmas, and i really wanted another game. But after playing gta2 and talking to a friend who got the other game, i realized i was lucky that i got this game instead of the other. even though the graphics are second-class, that is overshadowed by the fact that the game is pure fun. if you ever played the game "driver", gta2 is very similar but with more action and more of a plot. the game is also hilarious when you steal a car and the people chase you down the street. this is a very cool game, and i recommend it to anyone over 13 due to some corse language.
GTA2 is the best

I think GTA2 is one of the best games out there because allthose racing games where you are going against other cars isdumb. There needs to be more games where you can run from the police because that is fun. Stealing cars, killing and working for crime bosses is great, its entertaining and exciting. buy this game.
