Product Description
Several gangs are locked in a turf war, and your goal is to work for one of them and rise through the ranks to become a crime lord in GRAND THEFT AUTO 2. The payphone is your lifeline to the mob bosses, as this is only way you'll get jobs. Once you have completed a job, new and more challenging tasks become available. In all of the jobs, speed is the key to success, and since walking won't finish any job in time, you will have to "borrow" a vehicle. Luckily, every car you see can be stolen. While you're working, though, you'll want to keep a low profile and stay away from the cops; if they catch you, it is Game Over. Try to become the leader of your own crime syndicate in GRAND THEFT AUTO 2.

A pretty good game for Gameboy Color June 7, 2003
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This game was actually really fun. It had a wide range of cars, types of missions, and guns. Also, it is cool how you can shoot random people, steal random cars and there are ways to get out of anything. Even though I haven't played the play station version of it yet, I think it looks exactly like it. The fact that it IS a gameboy color game makes the graphics really bad. You can barely see the people in the game. Also, the whole password saving thing pisses me off. There is no blood, which can be a good thing, and three levels that are hard to pass. I advise you to buy this game.
Good, but needs a little help. April 27, 2003

GTA2 is a good game and quite addictive.The graphics are excellent. Plus, there are lots of vehicles to [borrow]. Also there is not as much foul language as there is on the PSone or Windows versions. But the down sides are the controls are difficult.The music gets annoying. The levels are long and drawn out. If you crash into something it takes a while to get out, and sometimes you can't even drive out. In the end, Grand Theft Auto 2 is a great game and I would suggest that you should purchase it ASAP.
It's Pretty Good December 11, 2002

I have mixed feelings about this game. I have to say that this is possibly the hardest game I've ever played. Doing the missions even on the first island took me ten tries to beat them. The controls are also pretty frustrating. If you steal a car and crash into another car it's like you're stuck to it. I must say though that this game is very good at doing what a gameboy was made to do, to entertain people on long trips. It is very addictive and will chew up a lot of time. I wouldn't play it if you have other systems at your house. Overall this is a pretty worthwhile purchase.
Improved, but still is not as good as the PS One version. August 7, 2002

If you can say anything about this title, it is that everything is quite improved. There are more cars to steal, and actually hijacking them is so much easier than the first game. You get lots more weapons, and they are easier to find this time. The missions themselves are much more exciting than in the first game, so you will always be on the edge of your seat. The open-ended gameplay allows you to complete the gang missions in any order, making it easier for the average gamer. However, the cities are not a big as their Playstation counterparts. There is still no blood/gore, so the adult feel of the game is lost. Driving the actual cars is very much unchanged, but the music is better this time around. An excelllent game for the driving genre, but not reallly "adult" enough to convey the "crime-spree" feeling of the Playstation versions.

This game [is horrible]. IT is so incredibly horrible that it makes ET on teh Atarii 2600 look good.brFOr a PSX game the graphics [are bad]. The over the top view is fine but it looks like it could easily be on the NES (Conviently trannsfered to Gameboy COlor by the way)brI hate the music in it. The same style makes for a non stop bore fest. I took it back within three hours after renting it.brThe controls are what kill it though. YOu will smashj the controller in three seconds after playing it.pAvoid with all cost. Trust me, as a hardcore gamer for 19 years you will trust my advice and avoid, go for Grand Theft Auto 3 if any of the series.
