Great precursor to the GTA games I know and love. I loved the funny radio stations, the health an shields being floating pickups was nostalgic, the varied missions from escort missions to kill missions, to races, to robbery. The Italian mob story was cool but then there's a twist and then your working for Yakuza. The old graphics reminded me of being a kid and the simple controls too. There were some janky parts due to the age of the game and I got hung up on the last mission to fight through many enemies with low health after being ambushed. Finally shooting down that chopper and watching credits rolls was great though! I loved the cars, the city, the weapons, the boats, the payphones! I hated the sound of the damn drawbridge, the inaccurate shooting, and the old control scheme. Other than that though this was awesome!
