From the first moments of the installation, Grand Theft Auto 2, offers the same smarmy, self-important hipster "atti-tude" that overtakes people who get tattoos and then think they're rebellious; in spite of this, it's one of the most entertaining games around. Parents beware: this isn't a driving game, but rather a title that prides itself on valuing random violence. (At certain points in the game, for example, your character is rewarded with a "kill frenzy," where he or she gets to kill as many people as possible in the shortest amount of time). But we think it's a hilarious and engaging interpretation of modern urban life and wouldn't trade GTA--to update a cliché--for all the crack in Philly.
Here's the 411: you're trying to impress low-life, underworld crime bosses, and you have to do their dirty work in any way you can. This includes killing people, stealing cars, throwing bombs, inciting mayhem, and belching at passers-by. But the best part of this game comes once you start a carjacking. More patient players pick the parked cars and evade the cops for longer; those of us with limited attention spans just like using a truck to bang into other drivers in the way, ramming them until the road is clear. The new edition boasts better graphics for these escapades, but there is still something to be said for the pixellated pleasure of the first GTA, in the same way that some of us hold a fondness in our heart for our TRS-80 Tandys.
Once you adjust to the birds-eye view, it's easy to become obsessed with completing your missions. The improved AI is as clever as the rest of the game; in version two, for example, the bus we were driving caught on fire after we hit too many cars. Imaginative and capable of making you laugh out loud even as you ready your rocket-launcher, Grand Theft Auto 2 is a great ride. --Jennifer Buckendorff

Customer Reviews of Grand Theft Auto 2
JUST READ THIS! If you like action, ultra-violence, super-speed and bad language, then this is definetly the game for you. Travel around in a "living metropolis" by foot or by car, and carry out jobs for seven different gangs using an array of weapons among other things. Learn to earn the respect of each gang, and jobs will be offered. But be careful, because in the land of GTA 2, enemies are easily made. Throw in the ability to steal any vehicle in the city (over 120 different vehicles), from firetrucks to ice-cream vans, and you've got one of the best damn games on the PC. Not only is GTA 2 fun, but it also has LOADS of replay value, so you'll never be bored! Don't just sit there! GET IT NOW! A copy has your name on it!
Jack em' up!
My sister bought Grand Theft Auto 2 (GTA2) a long time ago and I still play it. GTA2 is a game where you can do almost anything. You can jack cars from anyone including the police. The main point of this game is that you have to work for 7 ruthless gangs without getting your hide thrown in jail. The jobs start off easily but then increase each time you work for a gang. The harder the job is the more money you get. But, in order to work for a gang you have to show some respect. There are seven different gangs in the city and each of them hate each other. When you work for one gang then another gang looses respect for you then you gotta kill gang members from the gang that likes you then the gang that hates you will respect you so you can get another job from the gang that likes you. Well, it's kinda tricky at first but once you get the hang of getting respect from another gang it's pretty fun. There are over 100's of jobs and over 100's of cars. You can choose from armored lemos to tanks or even ice cream trucks! Also, this game is free. You can do anything to achieve your goals. You can put a bomb in a car and drive it to a gang's safehouse and blow them sky high! Almost anything you can do. That's why I love this game! If you love being the bad guy sometimes and love a game where you can do anything from getting chased by cops to working for dangerous gangs then get this game!
great game
Not quite gta3 but what can ya say it isn't 3d so it can't get there, but of course my favorite thing about this game was the commercials and just the radio in general. I also like the respect meter, something that i personally wished could have been incorporated into all other gta's. It also has the most freedom, you don't have to do a gangs missions if you don't want to, you can do the other's you have 3 choices in each city. Or you could find a tank and rampage like i LOVE to do. I mean whatching people go flying up into the screen is classic. I also love how the people curse at you if you almost hit them, it cracks me up almost every time. Good classic game, recommend it even if you already have gta3/vice. See gta at it's best.
