Join us as we look at the history of one of the most popular game series of all time, Grand Theft Auto. As well as offering the best modded controllers for Xbox, PlayStation, and PC. We are also huge gamers and that is why we are looking back at the origins of GTA!
Grand Theft Auto (1997-1999) PlayStation, PC, GameBoy ColorIt may surprise you to know this, but the first Grand Theft Auto game was made by a small studio in Dundee, Scotland. This studio would eventually go on to be known as RockStar North. But back then they were more famous for their series Lemmings.
Anyway, the first game in the Grand Theft Auto game caused quite a stir. You played the role of a guy trying to make his way in the world of crime. You would get to go between three main cities with each one requiring you to do certain missions and tasks for the local crime lords. You need to get points and money as this is what is going to unlock more missions and other parts of the city. When you think about it the original Grand Theft Auto had a very arcade feel to it.
While you can do missions. A huge part of the appeal of Grand Theft Auto was that you could go around and just pretty much do what you want. You could steal a ton of cars, kill random people, go on the run from the police and in general just cause all kinds of chaos!
The original game as a rather simplistic top down view which allowed the game to even be ported to the GameBoy Color in 1999. It is crazy to see how far the series has come with how realistic the series is now on PS4 and Xbox One. It may be simple, but there is still a lot of charm in the first Grand Theft Auto game.
