Don't listen to frank gifford. I don't know who gave him a computer to use, but he's wrong.
Sure, there are games that will and have taken the GTA go anywhere, do anything gameplay and the attitude that keeps you playing, but there was so much put into True Crime that you have to applaud it. Russel Wong must have gotten a lot of cash for lending his voice to this game, because he's all over it. There are hours of his dialogue, wisecracks and his grunts and groans as his character, Nick Kang, fights. Christopher Walken is in here as well, playing the old friend of Nick Kang's father.
The major similarity to GTA is that you can do what you want when you want, and you can go on to the next mission when you feel like it. The twist is that you're a cop and if you act violently, you become a bad cop, making cops your enemy as well.
There is a large soundtrack- about 50 songs or so- that are unedited. There are also some nice cheats and options as well for replayability.
So If you're looking for a game to hold you over until the next GTA, this is definitely it.
Sound: 8/10 Graphics: 8.5/10 Gameplay: 8.0
