Azrael Strife Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Respect is everything. In 1999, Rockstar Games and Rockstar North (then known as DMA Design) furthered the groundbreaking gameplay concepts established just two years prior in the original Grand Theft Auto - with the release of GTA2. GTA2 expanded on the top-down, open-ended crime world gameplay formula with a host of new features including the advent of multiple rival gangs - seven, to be exact, including the Yakuza, Scientists, Looneys, Rednecks, Zaibatsu, the Russian Mob and Hare Krishnas. Earn your respect with each gang. Reap the benefits with all manner of shady work-for-hire gigs contracted your way. And climb your way to the top of the criminal pile. Now, longtime Grand Theft Auto fans can revisit this classic entry in the series - and new jacks who missed out on this early franchise title can further discover Grand Theft Auto's roots - absolutely free. GTA2 has been completely optimized for play on modern PCs and is available gratis for all registrants to the Rockstar Games mailing list (rest assured your information will not be shared with any third parties, you will only receive information from Rockstar). Simply fill out the form below and check your email for a direct link to the file (353 MB .zip file, includes install .exe, readme .txt file, and a .pdf of the original PC game manual).

Kratos Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Maybe I'll give it a try. Doubt my graphics card will support it though. Funny how I can render 3D stuff (like my avatar) and yet I can't play 3D games... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 It's not technically a 3D game though. The first really 3D GTA was GTA3 so you should have no trouble with 1 or 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matri Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 This news is at least a year and a half old, first out was Wild Metal Country. The biggest problem here is that Rockstar will only allow you to download from their servers. Was not fun. Anyways, GTA2 has some nifty lighting effects, which does require a more powerful graphics card. My old Savage4 choked when there was more than one explosion on-screen. Cross your fingers, buddy.

Crazy Gringo Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 GTA and GTA 2 does indeed bring back memories....Why did they leave out the lightning gun in GTA 3?!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
