    Though GTA 2 is not a huge improvement I still thinks it improves enough for a sequel in my humble opinion

    You cant give this anything but 10. You cant play the game for your first time in 2007, you have to have tried it when it came out... it was the best of the best, no one can say anything else! Very playable fun game, enough said. I would love to rate GTA I, 10 too, but it isnt registered here probably because metacritic wasnt online then.

    Without any doubt my favorite Grand Theft Auto game. It polished the formula of the first game a lot, and includes a lot of gameplay elements that no other GTA have. I also love the gameplay on this game, it has the most focus on action on any game on the series, with lots of power ups, weapons and focus on dodge enemy attacks.

I also love the gameplay on this game, it has the most focus on action on any game on the series, with lots of power ups, weapons and focus on dodge enemy attacks. You can also upgrade vehicles, play fun minigames, and decided the gang you want to work on it, different to other GTA where you are forced in this aspect. The enemies can use any weapon that exists on the game (except the electrogun) and overall, it feels so "arcade", so "Doom style" that i love it and prefer it over the realism formula of the other games in the series. There´s things that could be much more polished, but overall, my favorite in the franchise by far and the only one that gives me so much fun.… Expand

    Одна из лучших игр с видом сверху. Определенно топ игра детства. Великолепная заглавная тема из меню отпечаталась в памяти навсегда.

    Fun bit can get repetitive after a while

    Ottimo successore del primo episodio.
    Perde un po' la divertente crudezza delle situazioni e dei dialoghi, ma migliora un pochino la grafica e inserisce le gang, che sono una simpatica aggiunta al gameplay.
    La recensione si riferisce alla versione PSX, di cui non c'è la scheda su questo sito.

    One of the most controversial games for the Playstation has created a bigger, better, badder, and more f***ed up sequel.

    Don't expect a graphical treasure but the gameplay will take take some time to complete while raising a few smiles on the way.

    Bangin' drum and bass kicks out of the stolen sports cars super woofers as you prowl the streets for criminal action. Climb behind the furry wheel of a pick-up truck and it's good ole' hillbilly rock. This game knows how to use music and it shows it big time.
