Anyone else miss GTA Clones?

[bongowongo]

Came across this and man, that video hit me in the feels.


I definitely miss all those gta clones from back in the older gens especially the ps2/ps3 era. They had so many cool little unique games that used a city backdrop where you do chit. Of course not all those games came to the level of GTA, but they were still some pretty fun competent games regardless.

True crime games
Mafia games
Sleepy Dogs
Scarface
Watch Dogs 2


Since the PS4 gen we've hardly had any games that use an open world city backdrop (apart from Cyberpunk) .... Most games just end up being lame post apocalyptic settings or just a big open world sandbox where you don't really get that city feel nomsayin.

I was crushed when I learned they’ll be no sleeping dogs sequel . I platted that game btw. Cool.

True Crime: Streets of LA is hands down the best GTA clone out there.

True Crime LA was goated as hell .... New york was ehhhhh.


But Mr. Bearycuck still doesnt give sleepy dogs the respect it deserves , personally I'd say it's the best gta clone lol.

I like the simpsons hit and run

Sleeping Dogs isnt a clone. Its its own game and is better than all the GTAs. Only thing that comes close as far as similarity is Judgment

M8 tell your aunt over at EA to create some gta clones. EA seems to be the only company nowadays that kinda cares about single player games since Ubisoft chit the bed with their gaasy turn.



Let's not bring Judgement/Yakuza games into this, because even though they have the city vibe, they're not "gta clones" though imo.

I remember really liking Just Cause 2. Then the 3rd one came out and it was lame and there is even a 4th which i never played but they say its chit too.

Anyone else play The Simpsons Hit and Run?

It's not "Sleepy Dogs" it's SLEEPING DOGS

get it right

one of the greatest single player campaign games ever made

[drakkarman]

Sleeping Dogs was the best out of that list played that on 360 and not long ago on pc all the way though lots of fun. mafia was a fun game too when it was released on pc i bought it

[drakkarman]

i liked the fighting on sleeping dogs . you could grab a woman off the street and throw her in the trunk of a car . that would not fly nowadays with the pc people

[ScrillaIsBake]

Yeah they stopped making them it seemed once GTA online took off

Anyone else play The Simpsons Hit and Run?

There was some guy on YT remastering it on his own, worth the watch srs

[Strawng]

Yup. Sleeping Dogs was better than all the GTAs post San Andreas and easily in my top-5 favorite games. I also loved True Crime & Saints Row before it went to chit then got woke. Oh, & Scarface was also a fuking classic.

It’s a damn shame that every game’s an open world now but we have no GTA clones.

Do you prefer SD to Yakuza??

[Manglet]

Total Overdose is a highly overlooked Robert Rodriguez-style GTA clone

[ScrillaIsBake]

Driver Parallel Lines was also a classic
