TimMiller Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Hey guys, so im a huge FAN of the GTA series, i completed every GTA game at least 2 times ( Vicecity 10 times and with SanAndreas i forgot counting...) But i never played GTA, GTA 2 , London and GTA Advance. I started GTA 2, but only walked drove around. I know for a 1996 game this game was amazing, but i don't know, i just don't feel comfortable playing it... ( I love Chinatown wars, but it is totally different) Should i give this game a try? I don't think the story and the missions will be that amazing after i played all the ,,advanced'' ones. CRAZYGTASAINT 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhillBellic Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Give it a try. After all this game is where the series started. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiffster Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Yes. You should complete GTA (and 2) at least once, but I'm only saying that because it was my favourite game back in those days. Ah man the memories... Good times! spoonman039 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nah nah nah Gta 6 Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Don't touch Advance, it's a waste of time. GTA 1 is ok, decent game and a ok time waster, but you'll probably spend more time trying to get it working properly than actually playing the game As for GTA2....This game....IT'S ONE OF THE BEST, this game isn't story focused (in fact it's the only GTA without a story), but the amount of fun here is endless, I recommend getting V.11.44 Version, it's free and it fixes all the annoying bugs from the R* Classics version.

Vice City criminal Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 If you Really don't feel like enjoying Top-Down view games try GTA 2 and GTA Advance First. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRAZYGTASAINT Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 (edited) Such a coincidence, I, like yourself, have completed all of the GTA games apart from the top down ones. I am an avid fan so last year I brought the collectors edition with 1, 2 and London included together. I played them all for around 5 mins each and didn't look at them again. But... Recently I started building my collection again and brought the original GTA2 and the limited edition of GTA 1. It got me thinking, so tonight I started playing GTA 1. I must say that I haven't had this much fun since I first completed the 3D era games for the first time. So yes, you definitely should give them a try. P.S. GTA1 was released in 1999 Edited February 16, 2015 by CRAZYGTASAINT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nah nah nah Gta 6 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 P.S. GTA1 was released in 1999 GTA 1 was released in 1997, while GTA2 was released in 1999 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KeWiS Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 My very first played GTA back in childhood days! Dispite the top-down view I learnt steering cars quite quickly, as all of my friends, who played this, were always cursing the driving xD But the best in this game is that the missions are really enjoyable and the game itself had a very nice climate (certainly putting 3 maps separately could affect). But I'll never forget how difficult were missions in Vice City part 2 - my keyboard had some very hard times xD And answering the top question: YES! The game is still worth playing, but I've noticed that getting this game work properly on newer OS (Windows 7 and higher) is quite a challenge. But nonetheless, GIVE IT A TRY! It will definitely pay off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raptomex Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 I have yet to find a top down game as good as the first 2 GTA games. Just something about them, the aesthetic. Especially the first one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keano Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 Definitely give them a go. They are all awesome. Be prepared for using a GBA emulator for Advance should you try it. It's rare and costs a lot online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retr0fruit Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 Sure. Give it a try. It would be cool to look back at the old ones, considering that's where the series started. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DimitriFaustin Posted June 21, 2016 Share Posted June 21, 2016 To anyone who wants to see where Grand Theft Auto all began, no one is stopping you. I certainly am not stopping you. That said (all bias aside), I highly recommend GTA 2, though. Eugene H. Krabs and Journey_95 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DERGaming Posted July 7, 2016 Share Posted July 7, 2016 Hey man it's your choice if you want to check it out it's a 2D game and fells A little retro for obvious reasons but go ahead and give it A try Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piko Posted November 12, 2016 Share Posted November 12, 2016 Well imo every GTA-fan should experience all of the games in the series at least once, even if they think they wont enjoy the game cause they might be surprised. This certainly was the case for me cause back in the day I thought GTA 1 looked absolutely horrible and I couldn't get myself to play it at all, but now that I gave it a chance I found it's actually real fun and challenging game. Pretty much the same could be said for Londons, I'm on 1969 atm and the missions are fun and memorable (especially the one with ICBM that can blow up the whole city).

Mr_Human_Guy Posted November 12, 2016 Share Posted November 12, 2016 I'd say give it a try on the pc atleast I didn't like the ps1 port tbh but if you are truely curious about Grand Theft Autos origins than they are totally free to download man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neon-Noir 198X Posted November 13, 2016 Share Posted November 13, 2016 Try it, but don't expect to enjoy it It's a clunky mess that has aged absolutely horribly, imo. If you haven't already, play GTA 2 - It's the perfection of the 2D Grand Theft Auto game; the definitive top-down open-world experience. Totally untouchable.
