In later levels, the Feds will pick up your trail, and, if you're really a miscreant, those cop-car roadblocks might just get replaced with tanks.Įven though the gameplay is largely the same as in the previous GTA, it's still a lot of fun. They'll send a van full of armored SWAT guys your way. They'll swerve in front of you and cut you off. This time around, the 5-0 can get downright devious. In the original GTA, "the man" was content to simply set up roadblocks and hope you'd wreck your car. The police are also a constant factor in GTA2. Luckily, you've got a health meter this time around, so you can withstand a few shots before going down. Angry gangs will simply open fire on you the minute they see you. The more they hate you, the angrier they will get when you roll into their area. The better you do in one gang, the more that gang's rivals will hate you. They force you to blow up buildings, shoot informants, deliver narcotics, and all other types of ill deals. The missions are similar to those in the original GTA. Once you've earned a little positive respect from a gang (an onscreen meter lets you know where you stand with all three gangs), you can start answering that gang's pay phones and going on missions. Since the gangs are constantly at war with each other, the only real way to earn the respect of one gang is to roll over to its rival gang's turf and start smoking as many gang members as you can find.
You, as a budding young criminal always on the lookout for the next big score, must earn some respect from the gangs in the city.
But regardless of personal philosophies, the gangs' methods are roughly the same. The gangs range from the ever-unpopular megacorporation Zaibatsu to the dirt-road mobile-home-owning Rednecks. Each level is divided up into three areas of turf, controlled by a different gang. The result is a game that looks just about as good as the PC version but lacks the cool multiplayer features that made the PC version better than the rest. Grand Theft Auto 2 for the Dreamcast combines the feature set from the PlayStation version with the graphical sheen of the PC version. Everyone's favorite jack-move simulator is back for another round.
