I’ve always seen Grand Theft Auto as the king of video games. It has set the tone for many games that followed and has consistently been one of the highest-grossing franchises in gaming history. The game has no shortage of action, adventure, and excitement as you race through the streets while trying to stay alive and complete your objectives. However, the part that I find most impressive is the sheer number of objectives and tasks you must complete in order to beat the game.
The goal of Grand Theft Auto is to complete all available missions and reach the end credits. It is estimated that this will take players anywhere from 30-50 hours of playtime. Thats certainly no small amount of time, which is why there are plenty of side missions, mini-games, hidden secrets, and easter eggs to discover throughout the game.
In order to finish the game, you’ll need to complete all of the main storyline missions. You’ll interact with a variety of characters as you progress, normally through cutscenes. Each mission is a little different than the last, made up of objectives such as stealing vehicles, delivering packages, or killing specific targets.
You’ll also be able to take on optional side missions to gain extra money, experience points, and item pickups. They are generally easier to complete than main missions, but still require skill and strategy to succeed. If you’re feeling really ambitious, you can track down hidden packages, find Easter eggs, or pick up extra challenges as you travel around.
Grand Theft Auto also features a dynamic in-game economy system. You’ll be able to buy properties and businesses to make an extra income, buy weapons, cars and clothing to customize your character, or even purchase stocks in different companies and make investments. This layer of complexity gives the game an extra dose of realism.
The music in Grand Theft Auto is fantastic and helps to immerse the player further into the game world. Music is chosen depending on what area of the map the player is currently in, or depending on the current mission they are carrying out at the time. Players can even make their own playlists if they so choose, allowing them to customize the music to their tastes.
All in all, Grand Theft Auto is an amazing game with so much to offer players. If you’ve ever wanted to experience the thrill of being a criminal in an open world full of crime and mayhem, this is the game for you. It is no wonder why it is one of the highest-grossing franchises in gaming history, and it deserves all of the praise it gets.
