Retro Gaming Feburary 2025

This month's "Retro Let's Play" for February is Grand Theft Auto from 1997.
Before the dramatic change to 3D in the third title in the series, the first two titles presented a 2D overhead view of the world. Initially being developed as a game called "Race and Chase" where you played a police officer trying to stop criminals, the development team found that too boring.
They flipped the script and put the player in the role of the "bad guy", tasked with doing (typically violent and terrible) odd jobs for competing gangs around town. These gangs themselves were in a power struggle with each other, so you as the mercenary criminal for hire were often caught in the middle of these gang wars.
You find phone booths scattered around the cities (for my GenZ friends - this was a time before the Internet and before mobile phones, and we had to put physical currency in the shape of small metal circles into standalone landline phones in public spaces to make calls if we were out and about), and use these to receive instructions on what to do next.
