True Crime: New York City is an ambitious open-world action game that attempts to replicate the gritty feel of a police drama. As loose cannon cop Marcus Reed, you'll explore a recreation of Manhattan, taking down criminals and building your reputation as a good cop or a bad cop. While the concept has potential, True Crime suffers from clunky controls, frustrating missions, and a significant amount of bugs. The city environment feels lifeless, and the game struggles to find a balance between driving, shooting, and investigation gameplay, leaving each element feeling shallow.
