Product Description:
True Crime: Streets of LA takes you into the life of Nick Kang, a cop whose lethal skillsearn him a dangerous job. He's going deep undercover, to defend L.A. from the Chinese&Russian mobsters that are drowning it in blood.

Amazon.com Review:
True Crime: Streets of L.A. is a Grand-Theft-Auto-esque action/driving/shooter that allows you to take control of Nick Kang, a cop out to solve a strange rash of crimes and solve his father's mysterious murder. The game treats itself like a movie, with frequent dialogue and cinematics, a soundtrack filled with some of rap's heavy hitters, and some surprising voiceover talent, like Christopher Walken and Snoop Dogg.

The missions given to you tend to involve shooting up or beating up (there is a big distinction between gun fighting and kung fu) a room full of bad guys, or simply have you racing against the clock in your car. In between, you can roam around and solve simple street crimes (mugging, car jackings, etc), or earn upgrades for your driving, shooting, and fighting abilities. The upgrade mechanism is important because while it's an entertaining way to add new gameplay elements several hours in, the early game leaves you with so few moves that the game is hard, or worse, boring. The game also features a Good-Cop/Bad-Cop karma system that rewards or punishes you for doing the right or wrong thing. Arrest criminals in non-lethal manner to get better endings, or terrorize the populace and have both citizens and police turn on you.

While it can be an entertaining take on the Grand Theft Auto genre, True Crime tends to suffer from hit and miss execution. For every compelling game element, there's another equally awful one. There are several mission types that are completely devoid of any fun, melee fighting favors button mashing even after the nearly-useless string of upgrades, and the controls and camera seem to work against you more often than for you. Ultimately, hardcore Grand Theft Auto fans and the infinitely patient may be in for a treat, but everyone else is advised to think twice about this game.--Jon "Safety Monkey" Grover

Pros:

Variety of mission types keeps game from getting overly repetitive
Karma system and plenty of alternate cinematics add to replay value
Excellent voice work and above average graphics

Cons:

Controls feel sloppy and the camera will make you want to punch out your TV
Certain mission-types are just plain boring
Melee fighting favors button mashing over thought-out, timed attacks

- Nick kang arrive's at the crime scene
This was a fun game but it was just a GTA remake in los angelas. This game was fun at first but gotten to a point where it's just like GTA! But i liked it better then GTA cause the picture quality is great and the rest has better view, meaning that GTA has a small view and the picture quality is not that good. This game gotten kinda boaring after i beaten the game, and the storymode was good to kinda strange but good, the people in this game look's weird and you can play as snoopdogg in this game ...

- Great graphics.
I am in no way a big video game buff.... I have a PS2 and have only played this a couple times because I don't have much free time to play. But from what I have played the game is fun, and the graphics are really amazing. Oh and the fact that I got a brand new one for 8 bucks from the Amazon marketplace makes it even better!

- A game which had potential, instead, was covered with blemishes. It's okay for a GTA mimic.
In this game your character is a cop named Nick Kang who is very independant and merciless. He is teamed up with a women that he cannot get along with in the EOD. Your job is to chase and track down murderers, drug dealers, and more. In this game, you can choose to be a good cop and bad cop. The more pedestrians you kill, the more your Bad Cop Rating lengthens. The more crooks you arrest, the more Good Cop Rating lengthens.

This decides where you game is going to go. If you pass the missions ... Read More

This game and its sequal suck so bad that i threw it to rot and when people ask me if i have got it i say no-as i forget that this game is even mine.ActiVision are usually good at games but-TrueCrime-Is one of the worst ever.Its trying to "combine" The Getaway and Grand Theft Auto-making a s(hitt)y flop of itself.
Grand Theft Auto has two desent clones DRIVER and The Getaway-TrueCrime-hahh-I would rather play krappy old GTA1 on the PS1 than this.
The car phycis suk,the characters suk,the storylines ... Read More
