Rating: 4 stars
Summary: great fun but could be a little disturbing
Review: Fun and slightly graphic this is a must for people who like games that have blood in them but not major gore. The language is a little graphic but most likely most people will love it I know I do.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: GTA ROCKS
Review: Grand Theft Auto has to be one of the best games of all time. You have alot of missions to do, but the cool thing is you don't even have to do the missions. You can just take any car you want an go for a joy ride. You can rule the sidewalks and runover anybody you want. You can run from the cops all you want too. In this game you can do just about anything. I never get tired of this game cause there is always somethin new to do in it. I hope you have as much fun playing it as I do.

Summary: Good game, bad theme
Review: Grand Theft Auto(GTA), has been one of the most popular PC games of the last four years(I'm writing this in 2002). After initial sales slumps, sales skyrocketed once people who bought the product began talking to other people.
The game centres around the main character, you, who is a young criminal trying to make his way up in the world of crime in a large US city. This is achieved by stealing cars, obtaining weapons, then doing criminal 'jobs' as such for money/points. Once all the jobs are complete, you advance to the next level, and eventually, to another city. Or, you can simply drive around the city, stealing cars, evading polcie patrols, and targeting civilians.
Technically speaking, I had some problems with the game on my PC, a failed installation resulted in my not being able to install the game at all, but I could still play it off the cd. The graphics are fairly smooth, frame limitations can be turned on or off, and the soundtrack, although slightly repetitive, is good and will appeal particularly to teenagers.
The games themes are ther biggest drawback, you are a criminal, and criminals do bad things. For example, the game encourages you to kill civilians and police officers by giving bonus points for them. Indeed, running over a pack of joggers incurs a huge bonus, as does blowing up a police vehicle.
The music in the game is typical FM heavy rock/pop music with predictable lyrics such as drugs, sex and crime.
I'm of the opinion this game should be MA, 15+ years only, the themes are terrible, little kids should not play this under any circumstances.
But for more mature gamers, this is a lot of fun, but one should never forget the themes of this game are fundamentally wrong.
Overall, a good game for experienced gamers, not suitable for kids, parents should think seriously before getting this game for their kids.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Awesome Game!...
Review: Grand Theft Auto, while morally wrong, is an incredibly fun game. I will never get sick of this game because it's so simple. The series only gets better with GTA2 and the latest and best of all GTA3. This games simple 2D graphics make it seem primitive, but it runs very smooth if you have it on the right settings. This game is the most fun game I've played in a long time, but a warning to parents; ultraviolence, swears, and sexual themes make this game unsuitable for the youngins.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: correction for editorial review that makes a big difference
Review: In the editorial review it mentions that you cannot save during a level and that you have to use your windows key to get back into windows to work unless you want to spend a few hours at a time on the game. This is completely untrue. While you cannot save during a mission, you can save during a level. Missions can be short or long but once you complete one you can save. I have little faith in the reviewer for not realizing that saves are achieved by going to a designated save location in the city... after completing the first mission you learn this. He must have been looking for a menu save option that does not exist and apparently did not spend a whole lot of time actually playing this game.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: WOW!!!
Review: In the first, I thought this game was stupid: air view, little men... But when I played it, I changed my mind about it. It's cool to run away of the police, get their cars, explode trains... I'm waiting fot GTA 2 to come out. They say it will be much better!

Summary: It is a fun computer game.
Review: It is an awesome computer game. You get to commit all kinds of crimes such as: carjacking, murder, hit and run, bribery, assault, and possession of illegal weapons.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: RE: Wow
Review: It is the best game I have ever played. First of all the music is great. The differnt music for different kind of cars really makes it worth while. Sencond of all I love the graphics, which arn't all that great but it makes the game fun. Third, It is the only game in which you get to do all of that stuff and still be on the streets.
