Most people have.
I gave the sequel a rent. Not too bad. They brought in Mariska Hartigay, so in some ways, it feels like a day in the life of Ice-T.

Sister services, email, and search will continue to be negatively effected by the attacks. I made a thread to talk about it, if you're into networking.

Funny thing is, I still have the LA version where you can actually play as Snoop Dogg:Most people have.

Where as in the NY version, they added Redman in the game, even though he’s from Jersey
I don't think I would've played True Crime nearly as much as I have if it wasn't for the fact that it supported the custom soundtrack function of the OG Xbox.
Granted, it was also busted as fuck and tended to loop the same song over and over even if you picked a wide variety. But that's about normal for everything else that was busted about that game.
I've always called True Crime the Gamecube's GTA. Since no GTA was ever released on Gamecube, this and The Simpsons: Hit and Run fit the bill if you had a Gamecube.
I miss when games had secret characters and levels to unlock or discover. I don't think True Crime: NYC sold that well anyway.Where as in the NY version, they added Redman in the game, even though he’s from Jersey
Everyone dunked on LA for the dragons and shit.
Wasn't the best timing. Nobody wants to play as the police in GTA. The R* hegemony was a real thing. Then the sequel was announced, and it was "True" in the sense that it lacked dragons. But it still made very little sense:
I felt True Crime: NYC went with a cop show drama take, while Streets of LA went with the more cheesy, supernatural movie type. It would be early to say "which direction" True Crime went; it only had two games under its belt.
I wouldn't say that people didn't want to play as the police in GTA. It's more the popularity of the GTA formula to where anybody willing to copy it needed to derivate itself.
I liked both True Crimes because I played them as police games and not GTA clones.
That being said, the True Crime name was always fucking hilarious. The first game had chapters devoted to being a Big Trouble in Little China rip off followed by chapters where you fought North Korean generals.

How about the chapters where you fought the Russian mob that were tangentially related to the North Korean general?
The Russian mob were some kinky ass fucks considering the bathhouse and BDSM club sneaking/fight missions.
There was a GTA clone that had sections where you played as the police, and they were actually pretty good, and that was The Getaway.
Seriously, the first mission in Black Monday? I'd love to see something like that in a GTA game. It could be something based on Line Of Duty seeing as that's mega-popular at the mo, crap series ending or not.

Trivia: Supposedly the very first GTA (PS1) was supposed to feature cop and hoodlum missions. The cop parts were scrapped, cause they sucked.
I imagine the limitations of storytelling was the problem there. Get a good experienced bunch of writers and I'll bet a cop player character would work in a GTA game.
Yes, throwing more writers and dialogue and cutscenes is exactly what GTA needs.
Eh, it's a better direction than micro-transactions and flying bikes for retard kids.
Touche
Are you talking about GTA's inception? To add (or correct) to that, a bug with the cop AI after they changed course from Race n Chase sparked the decision to make it into the genre we know and love. It was more fun during testing to outrun the erratic, bugged cops.
Cops are still bugged out the ass. If you turn onto a highway during a pursuit, they'll collide with your car and explode, killing you both. I think they get stuck to your bumper and cause the collision detection to go haywire.
I assume you're a GTA veteran dating back to the 2D era? I think @ProblematicUser420 is the same.

For anyone who cares for a bit of trivia, it seems that the "pointing gun at viewer" meme everyone likes to use nowadays originated from True Crime.
I started with GTA 1 and GTA2 in 1999, but I don't know them nearly as well as I do the 3D era and haven't played them in over 10 years.
That basically describes me. But I played the unholy fuck out of the 2D era.
Including the Game Boy Color title, which nobody remembers. Technically impressive, yet still not very good. There's a mission where you have to kidnap the Mayor's wife, and she just no-clips through buildings as she walks.
