Extra missions, not so extra fun.

User Rating: 5 | Grand Theft Auto: London - Special Edition PS
By ultimatebanjo | Review Date:
The whole London theme seems like a good idea, but things aren't always as they seem. The missions are about the same as the missions you will see on Grand Theft Auto, only with an accent. The first mission I went on, I blew up a bus with a rocket launcher. That's a big leap in my arsenal from the last game.

The annoying part about playing the game is the disc changing. Insert London, take out London, insert GTA, take out GTA, insert London, loading begins, begin playing. It's a waste of time.

The improved menu is a plus. It looks nicer and is easier to get around. The character select is okay. The real improvement here is...well...nothing, really. I don't think anyone should spend legal tender on this game. All the developers did is add that British touch and assume that they created a great new game. This is probably one of the worst attempts at an expansion pack I've seen. I got this and the other two PlayStation GTAs really cheap, so I didn't lose much. Anyone who is considering getting this, stop it. Sure it's GTA, but there's nothing in it to look forward to.
