The best Geezer beater since the Mitchell brothers...

The Good
GTA London's undeniable coarseness made it one the best GTA games I have ever played, with it's range of missions, colourful language and ease of use, I would give a copy of this game to every pre-schooler in the world.

The Bad
The rather shady graphics that unfortunatley let this otherwise flawless game down. I was as pleased as punch to see GTA 3 in 3D making the people bashing even better.

The Bottom Line
A funny, wild, unusual game that is more fun that you can shake a stick at.

Definitely better than the original GTA.

The Good
Well, it's quite a bit more fun.. first you have to appreciate the oddity of driving on the left side of the road as opposed to the right. The graphics are quite a bit better (same engine but far better sprites) and the assignments are also more fun. Also, there are the ridiculous new cars - the Locust and the ones with the Brittish flag, gotta love 'em :-)

The Bad
A horrible, horrible software engine, only Glide support and unbelievably idiotic timing mechanism render this game virtually unplayable on anything less than a Pentium II.

The Bottom Line
A nice game, if you're into this sort of thing.

Not much different from original

The Good
This game has some really cool cars and stuff. The sound is a tad bit better than the originaal.

The Bad
This game has the EXACT same gameplay and character sketches as the original gta. The weapons were exactly the same. The only things that were differnt were what side of the road you drive in and what side of the car you get into from.

The Bottom Line
TERRIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!! GET GTA 2 OR BETTER YET THE ORIGINAL. THIS GAME ABSOLUTELY IS TERRIBLE
