If you never jumped over a bunch of cars in GTA2 going in circles to make sure you never landed...

did literally ANYONE play the missions in this game? all we ever did was run around shooting people and steal cars

Didn't you have to do the missions if you wanted to unlock the other maps?

you had to do the missions to get to next cities man.

didnt everyone just use the cheats

I played more GTA 1.

Jokes on you, I reached my 40's, will you?

>Can jump over firetruck
Can't do that in GTA1. You can only crawl under tall vehicles.

NO ITS 2019 AND HAVING FUN WITH BUGS AND GLITCHES IS FORBIDDEN HELLO?

Dreamcast version of gta2 was pretty great.
It even had a working monorail and day night cycle iirc.

ASSOLE

Is that on some DRM shit or something? Doesn't look like a directory or a Windows start menu shortcut

of course I did that and things like that in general, in gothic I would literally spend hours climbing over areas I shouldn't be in and figuring out how to break every game I played in general

>How was swat3
I remember playing the hell out of the demo but never bought the full game, maybe because I already had Clancys Rainbow 6, looking forward to Ready Or Not though

Let's suppose hypothetically that an acquaintance of mine in real life is a TOTAL FILTHY FUCKIN CASUAL that wants savestates.
Is there a way to get savestates working in GTA 1 and 2, on a version of the game isn't complete watered down cut out low limit garbage?

Have you played prey2017?

why isn't there a car crusher in the new games? it was one of my favorite things in gta2.

I'm fairly sure GTA1 on PS1 is identical to the PC version so you can get your savestates there.

Well I'm wrong but there was a version that wasn't completely 2D

of course

Nice. I'm going in.

so this board doesn't know that RESPECT IS EVERYTHING ?

>Ready Or Not though
Is it still coming out?
I bought swat3 and it had only 12 missions but came with a Tshirt

I prefer the crane from GTA1. You could literally finish the entire game just by stealing and selling expensive cars. In GTA2 you only get powerups from crushers.

Its a well made game desu

It's weird how the opening FMV for GTA 2 looks more like it's for GTA III than for 2.

>Is it still coming out?

As far as I know, the last update on their twitter was in march

It is underrated with very strong art direction and gameplay approach variety, two things I enjoy a lot.

WOO

Arkane are ok though, any idea what other immersive sims are is development?

GTA 1&2 (less so London) had some genuinely fucked up missions. It was before they started trying to make the protagonists have personalities and anti-heroes.

I sometimes wish I lived in vice city.

If you never ran in reverse after getting those groups or cops aggro, and fired a rocket launcher to watch them fly toward the screen, you don't even know shit about this game by itself.

But you had to make a few missions to get the multiplier up or you would die of age

I just fired up my age-old installation of GTA1 and discovered edited textures, custom cars made by myself and real-world car names

Still a little mad. Also too scared to listen to that parody country (?) song I used to love in case time has rendered it trash.

The only reason why literally everything in GTA has an unfunny pun name as opposed to the real name of its real-world counterpart is legal reasons. If games were allowed to depict the real world in their fiction just like everything else is, games wouldn't need to have fake brands all over the place.
Also because GTA1 is top-down instead of 3d, all of the cars are actually accurate depictions of their real world counterparts as opposed to slightly changed versions for legal reasons. Only the names are different, for legal reasons. It's not an artistic decision.

now this i can get into

I miss in older gta game i would ust run around and raise chaos for hours without doing any of missions. In gta 5 after completing the mission i don't even want to play game anymore. Multiplayer somehow fixes but grindy gameplay and loading screens get annoying. I haven't played the cutsom multiplayer in 5th but samp and vcrp was tons of fun.

I still remember it to this day, as I remember Radio Gaga (?) which made pedestrians violent until you shut the transmitter down.

If you had a memory card for ps1 you never beat any game in your life

EAT HEARTY, COMRADE

I remember one where you got a flamethrower mounted on top of a firetruck.

Yooooo! How about telephone sound? That shit scared me when I was a kid

Ok fellas I really want to play this game but for some reason isnt on steam. Is there a place to download/buy it officialy? Also, I remember that the games top down controls are a bit clunky with a keyboard. Does it have controller support or is there a gta2 mod that allows controller support?

its the windows start menu you fucking zoomers

Rockstar provides free download of GTA1 and 2 on their website.

I thought so at first but the cancerous color scheme that nobody in their right mind would apply to the Windows theme made me question that hypothesis.

>cancerous colour scheme
what?

TAXI DRIVERS MUST DIE!

Great found it thanks :D! Any info about the controller support?

Nobody uses Windows in white on black. This is what it normally looks like.

Is there a full version of GTA 2 anywhere? The ones I keep finding are missing a bunch of sounds, especially the radio stations.

GTA 2 is literally my favorite GTA. Can't even count the amount of hours I've spent playing it back when I had a PS1.

>>find a green blob
>>turns out it's a freaking tank
I still remember the squee of joy I made when I found a tank near the redneck base. I spent half an hour just smashing cars around the city.
Good times.

I love the three different areas. Which gangs were your favorite to side with? By area I like Yakuza, Rednecks, and the Russians. My favorite mission is the one where you take a bunch of dudes to a meat factory and turn them into hotdogs.

Best setting, best main menu music
youtu.be/7O1EmNIGzys
Didn't any of you found the later two areas difficulty curve a bit harsh? I still didn't finished industrial area to this day because it really isn't fun and compared to previous two areas it looks ugly as shit.

A lot of PS1 games used redbook audio for the ingame music. It also meant you could play it in a regular CD player.

I liked the second area. Zaibatsu best gang.

>Teriyaki-chan was voiced by Seiko Yoshida, voice actress just 13 years old at the time of the release of GTA 2.

That's cool, I had no idea.
Does anyone know what she's saying when she goes on her Japanese rants?

(At the start of Toys are Real's "Flymutha")
"This is me from Funami FM, somehow I'm here, Teriyaki-chan! Oh, it makes me feel sick, it's irritating, isn't it? This bad weather, bad traffic and bad crime! Stop fooling around, who do you think we are?! And you can't never tell if a Yakuza is friend or foe, really... Astonishing?! Johnny Zoo and Danny Zoo have both become car-criminals, this computer game is starting to become shitty... Is this really fun at all?!"

(Towards the end of Toys are Real's "Flymutha")
"So, I will play a new record now! It's such a pleasant day, really... it is quite hot though, now! Pull up the song next!"

(Just before Future Loop's "Garage Acid")
"Stop fooling around, who do you think we are?! Who knows whether a Yakuza gangster is a friend or a foe?! Good song next one!"

(At the start of Ido's "Ball Blaster")
"Ain't this really shitty?! Is it really any fun at all?! Yes!"

Rockstar's Ukraine site still has the downloads available.

gtamp.com/gta2/

Yeah. If the game was designed to fit the current level and other assets into RAM, this would let you take out the game disc and then put in a music CD, and now use that as the soundtrack. Obviously, you'd be prompted to reinsert the disc if the game needed to load data again ie. you switched to a new level. There were other uses for this, like Monster Rancher games was known for letting you use any CD for a seed to generate new monsters (or give you specific monsters for certain CDs).

They would probably fuck up the art style. It's edgy 90's interpretation of a futuristic dystopia where the cars look like they're from the 1930's. Criminal gangs are so powerful that they have their own research facilities and fusion power plants.

What timing. They just recently put up a Jesus saves billboard on the road I take to work and it made me think of this game.

PEICE OF SHIT

I had so much more fun with car bombs in GTA2 than any 3D GTA, I think because it was so much easier to get a bunch of cars to pile up and cause a chain reaction than later games. I can't remember using them in III or later games aside from when it was required by missions.

>mfw used to know where to find the hidden tanks on each map
If I recall correctly each map had two hidden tanks on the opposite sides of the map from each other.

if you didn't mod the text file to replace starting car with a tank you dont know shit about video games

What I never realized until recently was how fucking terrible GTA2 on PS1 looked compared to the PC version I played. It's missing almost all of the vertex lighting on the environment, plus never zoomed out as much.

>that fucking intro
It was a different time.

Wait, Game Hunter still works?
I need to set it up again. I remeber having quite a lot of fun in multuplayer.
That is when I wasn't playimg against some hyper-competitive fuck who used combination of over9000 exploits to murder me before I even properly finished respawning

There was like 8 people in the lobby when i last used it a couple years ago

Me and my cousin always liked to run over those orange joggers and still remember the sound they make

Because PSX is a piece of shit.

There are three versions.

GTA2 for PSX, Dreamcast, and PC. From worst to best. PSX hardware was pretty weak so all of the game is in the day time. Dreamcast hardware was next gen, so it allowed for street lamps, light effects, and more stuff on screen.

PC version had both a day and night option that you can set before starting.

So basically there are a bunch of people who played GTA2 on PSX/Dreamcast who had two entirely different experiences due to the change in atmosphere/mood due to the limitations of hardware.

Nope
you needed a certain amount of money to get to the next level.
Missions gave a multiplier on the cash you recieved.
I had gotten to the point that I could get from city 1 to city 2, just using the two tanks you can find on the maps.
Still can do it too

Dreamcast port came late, so it's weird it's missing stuff over the PC release. PS1 release is likely a case of a shit port, since there's nothing about the game the PS1 couldn't handle with ease. It's 2d sprites everywhere with blocky environments, that's an easy 60fps for that hardware, and the lighting should have been kept in.

When you blow up so many vehicles your old pc used to lag to shit until it cleared. Or picking up max respect gang members and taking them to the enemy gang or making them fight the police for you

Back in the day when FPS drops in a game meant it ran in slow-motion.
