After the first few first minutes of playing, I had pretty much decided that it was just an okay game. Now that I have played it more, the game has become even more fun. Two thumbs up!

I just recently bought GTA for Game Boy Color and after my first time playing it, I found it to be a bit of a let-down. It was difficult to know where exactly you are going in the game and it was kind of a pain to maneuver your car around tight corners. After playing the game for a while though, it became pretty fun as you go through the missions you are assigned. If you liked the PC version of GTA, I suggest that you buy the Game Boy Color version. Also, for parents, the violence and swearing has been cut down so it would not be too bad for younger children. I give Grand Theft Auto 4 stars!
A good game with minor set backs

Grnad theft auto o the Game boy color does not quite have the same appeal or "playerability" of the PC version, but for such a small screen it has excellent graphics (crystal clear) and has over 100 tasks. It does require, if you want to save your games, a battery backed file and has an excellent sound track. Excellent if you don't cart your PC around with you when you go on holiday. Altogether an excellent game for an excellent price.
Don't buy it!

This conversion SUCKS BIG TIME. It is very little like the PC version, which you are better off with. All physics on the cars are the same, meaning all cars go top speed, are hard to control, and all have the same armor rating. (If you envision destroying cars with the bus, you're out of luck unless you want to kamakazi.) Gameplay is also lacking, and very complicated. Not a fun conversion. Stick with the PC version.
GTA on GBC is pretty cool

I'm glad I bought this game. It has great sound and terrific graphics. The gameplay itself, however, can be a little frustrating. At times I had trouble figuring out where to go and when you're on foot It can take awhile. The speed and handling of the cars is great.Once you get the hang of it, this game is awesome. It's one of the best action games you can buy for GBC. I would reccomend buying it.
grand theft auto - best game in the world!

This game is the best game to come out on the playstation ever, while GTAL (Grand Theft Auto London) was ok it didn't have the flair and brilliance of the first game. This is a must for anyone who loves to kill, drive, drown, shoot, do jobs, gang war-fare and any other violence related stuff legally

Wonderful graphics combined with killer gameplay,this is the game to buy! however,DO NOT buy this game for young children,everyone has a mouth like a truck driver! If this is for an adult,it is hilarious, with over 40 missions your go on for various gangs,in 3 different citys!
cool game; the control is tedious

GTA is a cool concept---you are the criminal trying to get a rep buy pulling jobs for the mob. The only problem here is the control; at first it is frustating enough to make you want to stomp on the game and then blow it up. Once you play it awhile, the control becomes less hectic and you begin having fun.
