cars and bikes

As an avid fan of the Grand Theft Auto series, I was really looking forward to True Crime. I mean, I was REALLY looking forward to it. It's too bad that they put all that work into it for nothing. There are so many things wrong with this game, but I'll only name a few: 1), the length. The game can be beaten in two days or less (if you can handle the extreme level of difficulty). Which brings me to the number 2), the difficulty. At a few points in the game, difficulty reaches near impossible. I nearly smashed my controller a few times. 3) No boats, planes, helicopters, bikes, nothin'. Just about ten different cars to choose from in this massive and pointlessly recreated Los Angeles.
This game was the biggest let-down in gaming history, as far as I'm concerned. It had so much going for it. I'm warning you, DO NOT BUY THIS GAME. At the very most, rent it with a gift card at blockbuster.
It's sad, really.

Quite possibly better than GTA in many aspects of gaming, True Crime: Streets of L.A. brings that missing part of gaming to the Gamecube system. While True Crime is being released on all three major gaming platforms, many Gamecube fans are especially excited about its release. The Gamecube system has been missing an action/shooting/racing/adventure game with the elements that True Crime brings to the table ever since its release.

True Crime brings the player into the game as an L.A. Cop looking to break up the mafia and crime in L.A. This game is set up in the non-restrictive gaming style of the GTA games. However, T.C. adds unique details to enhance the gaming experience. For example, the setting of the game is obviously L.A. The detail of the map of Los Angeles is amazing however. While making this game, satellite images were used to make the game's setting extremely accurate to real life! Dozens of cars and weapons will be available for driving/shooting, as would be expected. Along witht the weapons, the main character will also know various martial arts. Additional combat styles and all-around improvements will be available throughout the game at various points. Also, a major component of the game is the fact that you can not "fail" missions as in GTA. The game is based upon a branching storyline with multiple endings depending on your actions during the game. For example, if you are an awesome cop, fight crime, catch every criminal, there might be one ending, but if you go on random shooting sprees and just have fun beating people up (which you can do!!! haha) then you would get a lesser ending to the game.

With so many other details to talk about, I'll leave the rest up to you! I would suggest buying True Crime and trying it for yourself. With so much to offer, there is little chance you will not like this game!

I bought the game yesterday after hearig glowing reviews about it. I must admit I didn't think that the game would be as excellent as it is, I mean the stories are intresting the gameplay action driving all together makes the game so enjoyable. I highly reccomend that you buy the game if you like great driving and action games . You'll love True Crime streets of LA
