In my opinion, they are good for atleast ten hours. But I haven't played since the PS1 age, so the outdatedness of it might bring down the fun factor.

They original games are a lot like the PS2 games but only in the mission selection, things like rampages and putting out hits on people and property damage, the only thing is its all from the top down perspective the graphics are hardly impressive and the story is no where near as cinematic. Most missions are relayed be text windows when you pic up a phone (almost everything is a "phone mission".)

If I recall correctly you can actually find the pc version online for free (legally!)

I played the PC version to death which is probably why I was disappionted with GTA 3

I wasn't a big fan of the old school ones, but my brother loved 'em. Wow, look at that, I was absolutely no help!

I guess it wouldn't hurt to just pick them up real cheap used or something... I hate playing games on the pc (but the free is so very very tempting), other than Myst from back in the day, I'm a diehard console gamer, for better or worse...

i actually like gta 2 the best. i remember when this game was so rare. tons of fun, as long as you dont expect great graphics.

Graphics DON'T make the game! Ever!

There's a reason why Pong, Donkey Kong, and Super Mario Brothers are still fun today...it's called gameplay. Who cares what a game looks like? As long as it's fun to play, graphics shouldn't matter. At all.

I'd like to own GTA 1 and 2 someday. I've borrowed them from friends but I've never owned a copy of my own of either of them.

My penguin buddy here says it best.

Don't get your hopes up if you want graphics too similar to GTA3/Vice. But, if you're looking for hours of mindless fun doing bad stuff, download away.
