Hot take: I actually like this game


Recommended Posts

Yes, you heard me correctly. I LIKE Grand Theft Auto Advance.

 

Now, before you all pull your guns out, no, I'm not saying it's the best GTA game at all. I'm very well aware of it's flaws and it's one contradiction with GTA 3.

 

However, I personally enjoy the plot and it's characters (even though some were reused from GTA 3, which already were good characters). The fact that they were able to put all three islands on a GBA, while still being slightly 3D (notice the polygons) is beyond impressive. It's story is also really compelling despite not being written by Dan Houser. Think about it.

 

A hobo named Mike working with the mafia trying to start a new life with his best friend Vinnie and it all goes wrong

Spoiler

after Vinnie reveals that he was using Mike for his own personal gain and kills Jonnie and Cisco, two of Mike's bosses, while he was on a mission.

 

That, and also this Mike is better than Michael De Snitchda from GTA 5. He doesn't backstab enemies, he gets in their faces. A man of his word.

I think it is decent for a GBA game. Storyline is good enough and enjoyable imo. Some things make sense, some don't, but it's cool, nonetheless.

 

Sadly, we didn't get GTA Advance 2. Imagine a top-down GTA in 3D Era Vice City.

For a GBA game, its was very impressive as the game somehow fits LC and the stories into the small size cartridge. But still, it was the weakest GTA Entry of all of GTA Games.


The combat was surprisingly good, not too fast and not too slow, the driving was okay, and most importantly, the story was pretty good for a GBA Port.

Como dije, las líneas de voz no se grabaron en ese momento, así que agregaron las que tenían, las de GTA 2 y las superpusieron en el tráiler.

 

Gta 2 in GBA wouldn't it be amazing?

Yes it irks me the game is perceived so negatively. I get it it's primitive, but for a GBA game they did a pretty good job.

If we still were in a world where taking your GBA is one of the only ways to play on the go then this game would be much better received. I also like the art-style they went for: the looks of GTA1, the tunes from GTA2 and the city layout from GTA3.

Hot take: I actually like this game!

  1. The immersive storyline and captivating gameplay keep me hooked for hours on end.
  2. The graphics and attention to detail make every moment feel like a cinematic experience.
  3. The multiplayer mode adds an extra layer of excitement and friendly competition. It's a game I genuinely enjoy playing.

Unfortunately, this game suffered from the GBA's hardware limitations.

 

Repetitive audio, terrible vehicle physics, lack of controls, rotten combat, in short, in technical terms it's very bad.

 

However, it does have a storyline, and it's good enough for those who enjoy playing Liberty City. It's a good complement to the stories in GTA III.

 

The difficulty is also fair and the graphics are nice compared to other GBA games.

 

It's an average game. It's important that every fan of the franchise plays it, though.
