True Crime Streets of LA
Date undefinedThis was a fun game but it was just a GTA remake in los angelas. This game was fun at first but gotten to a point where it's just like GTA! But i liked it better then GTA cause the picture quality is great and the rest has better view, meaning that GTA has a small view and the picture quality is not that good. This game gotten kinda boaring after i beaten the game, and the storymode was good to kinda strange but good, the people in this game look's weird and you can play as snoopdogg in this game but it really did'nt matter to me if you can play as him but this game was good.

Date undefinedI am in no way a big video game buff.... I have a PS2 and have only played this a couple times because I don't have much free time to play. But from what I have played the game is fun, and the graphics are really amazing. Oh and the fact that I got a brand new one for 8 bucks from the Amazon marketplace makes it even better!

Date undefinedIn this game your character is a cop named Nick Kang who is very independant and merciless. He is teamed up with a women that he cannot get along with in the EOD. Your job is to chase and track down murderers, drug dealers, and more. In this game, you can choose to be a good cop and bad cop. The more pedestrians you kill, the more your Bad Cop Rating lengthens. The more crooks you arrest, the more Good Cop Rating lengthens.
This decides where you game is going to go. If you pass the missions as a good cop, you can unlock certain mission and being a bad cop can unlock others. You are allowed to have more than one game file, so it is yours to experiment. The game is made up of many small missions you must pass to unlock new ones. Sometimes you can skip ahead if you find one too hard, which is useful. The way the fighting works is, you are engaged in fights with people and whoever's health goes down loses. You can use your gun, and your punches, and kicks to pull off some combos.
The driving is really fun. The car can actually get damaged and you can drive-by while in it. There are street crimes you can solve in between missions to make yourself a better cop and some missions require you to solve them. The sound in this game is pretty decent if you are into Rap music. If not, you don't have to hear it. There are flaws in the game which knock down it's rating. Nothing to do after the missions. All there is to do is re-do the missions. No multiplayer. It's not a good game for when you have company over.
Another flaw is that you are only limited to what the mission tells you to. Some missions are outside which require to drive to a certain place, untimed. You can freeroam at that point. Kill some people. Arrest some people. Drive around. Crash cars. Graphics are decent.
Pros: Good soundtrack ; Mission skipping ; Able to be good or bad.
Cons: Game can feel bland, linear, and limiting at times ; Slo-mo is bad ; Fighting and shooting weren't that well thought out.
Bottom line: This game has a lot of freedom in it, but do not be expecting a Grand Theft Auto.
