wat are they like??? heard they are as good as GTA but am a bit sceptical.. can anyone please give me a review or tell me their thoughts on gameplay, graphics, longevity, sound, etc.. ta
 
Playing True Crimes: NYC as we speak. Do NOT let bad reviews discourage you on this game. Most sites will tell you its horrible or its well below True Crimes: LA. That is far from the truth. I'm digging this game a lot at the moment, so many things to do. Soundtrack is bitchin', but GTA still holds it steady in my opinion. Defiantly worth a purchase though.
 
Only played 'True Crime: Streets of LA', and I was far from impressed.

Terrible graphics (worst jaggies ever), boring and annoying gameplay, and no longevity whatsoever. Not a patch on the GTA series. Do yourself a favour and give it a miss.
 
PLayed LA for a few moments - it got old very quickly. Just didn't do it for me which was a massive shame as i had geared myself up for a great game.

I liked LA, finished it and thought it was pretty decent, didn't touch GTA, but very decent.

I couldn't get into and hated NY for about 2 hours, but got into it after that.

The graphics aren't horrible. The gameplay is very good when you get use to it and the longevity is there, even more so in this sequal.

You can pick it up for $25 at Big W. It would be a crime:rolleyes: to give it a miss at this price.
 
If you're a hardcore gamer you'll think they're garbage. The graphics are bad, the game engine is clunky, the frame-rates are some of the worst I've ever seen, the music is good if you like nothing but rap, otherwise you'll hate that too, ect...

Way too flaws IMO. However, some people don't know what's good, but will always find enjoyment in games that let you shoot innocent people.
 
A 'hardcore gamer'?

Haha, I know you must feel all high and mighty and the last thing I want to do is to bring you back down to earth, but...

The main reason True Crime NYC gets ripped on is it's buggy gameplay. The draw distance and framerate are pretty nice, are they the best graphics ever? No, but nobody's claiming they are. If the frame-rates are some of the worst you've ever seen, you haven't played too many games.

The music makes up a small part of the sound, the voices and effects are fantastic. If the tracks upset you that much, you can easily turn the music down. I must admit I find myself skipping more than the odd track, but to claim it is 'nothing but rap' is bs. There is a lot more diversity in the game, with a lot more rock I have noticed and bands like The Ramones, White Zombie, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, The Velvet Underground, Interpol, Iggy & The Stooges, Danzig, Helmet.

It’s not fantastic and the bugs can get annoying, but it’s a very decent and very ‘fun’ game that is easy to play and enjoy when you get into it. If you are the sort of ‘hardcore gamer’ who judges games on the framerate and a couple of rap songs (which by the way sounds so much like 5-20 minutes and whoever judges a game on that amount of time is very stupid indeed), don’t buy it….
 
True Crime NYC is a pretty decent game, however the gameplay gets a bit boring and repetitive after a while.

Doesnt even compare with GTA.
