Story:True Crime: Streets of LA is a free-roaming driving and action game similar in concept to Grand Theft Auto III. The game's structure is mission-based; most of the missions are dictated by the story and initiate following a cutscene that advances it. Failing a mission still allows the player to continue playing through the chapter and undertake subsequent missions; in some cases this will lead to branching paths and optional missions. However, in order to complete the whole chapter the player must eventually succeed in all the main missions.Show more

OMG! I loved this game so much as a kid and still even go back and play it at times. I would pay anything to see it GOG. Great game and its sequel was okay too.

I do recall playing this on Xbox original. I believed I once played every path there is. I didn't even fully know the concept of clones in gaming at that time. I kinda knew it was somewhat similar to GTA series. You play as a detective that's literately taking down the bad guys. This might be famous for the bonus mode. Where you play as rapper Snoop Dogg with a huge time limit. Simply stop as many crimes as possible. This also put some effort into the fighting mechanics. Shooting can be fun for a while. I would say among the best GTA clones I played. The music is rememberable to a degree. It does play off good or bad system. Which started to become more popular in gaming. You also got a rememberable protagonist. Parts of the cut scenes felt somewhat like a decent crime movie. I do think a lot of people would absolutely love this in their GOG collections.

I had this game on GameCube. It is mostly the reason I am interested in similar games just like it currently available. I think it had alternate endings. I thought that was pretty cool.

A cool game with an open world and character progression with different abilities. The story is decent, and I think there are even two endings. There's a lot of humor. I played it back in 2004. For me, it was kind of like GTA: Vice City but about a cop, with slow-mo mechanics, advanced weapons, and hand-to-hand combat. The game is outdated both technically and graphically, but it has some amazing features you won’t find in other games.

I've played the PS2 version of this game a few years back. It may be a GTA clone and a bit janky, but I find it stands out in it's own way, it's pretty fun & the humor is memorable.

Discworld
DiscworldDiscworld is a game released for PC (subsequently Mac, and Playstation) by Teeny Weeny / Perfect 10 studios in 1995. The game was released both on floppy disk and CD-Rom. The latter featured a commentary team created of many veterans of famous Brit-Coms. This included Monty Python's Eric Idle, Radio 4's (later to be more famous) Rob Brydon, ex- Doctor Who John Pertwee, 70s pop singer Kate Robbins, and Blackadder star Tony Robinson. The game is a riff on the Discworld title 'Guards, Guards', however many elements of the text have been shifted, not least the inclusion of Rincewind as protagonist. The game featured puzzles which were considered far too difficult and obtuse for gamers of the time, but the game itself has had a lasting legacy, now being accepted into such emulators as SCUMMVM.

Discworld II: Mortality Bytes!
Discworld II: Mortality Bytes!Discworld II: Mortality Bytes! is the second point-and-click adventure game based on Terry Pratchett's series of fantasy novels set on the mythical Discworld. The game was developed and produced in 1996 by Perfect Entertainment for the PC, and ported in 1997 for the PlayStation and Sega Saturn. It was published by Psygnosis for the PC and PlayStation, and by Sega for the Saturn (only in Europe). In Discworld II the player controls Rincewind the "wizzard" (voiced by Eric Idle, as in the previous game) who has been burdened with the task of coercing Death out of his impromptu retirement and back into his regular duties. The plot borrows from a number of Discworld books, most notably Reaper Man, Moving Pictures and Lords and Ladies. It all begins in a quiet Ankh-Morpork street, where Rincewind and The Librarian inexplicably fail to die from a nearby cart-bomb explosion. The odd event is not shared by them alone however: occurrences of the newly dead re-awakening and disturbing the populace are being reported all over the city, prompting the Archchancellor of Unseen University to halt his usual activities of feasting and merrymaking, and to take charge of the situation. Much to Rincewind's despair, the entirety of this process involves appointing him to the task of finding Death and convincing him to resume his work.
