There’s something to be said about converting a newer game into the Wolfenstein 3D engine; you really shouldn’t. Otherwise you might get something that looks like the screenshot above.
The Grand Theft Auto III mod is a sprite conversion in a vain attempt to make the game like Grand Theft Auto.The enemies are policemen and I guess gangsters, who will attack regardless of whether or not you’ve done anything wrong, by driving up to you, getting out of their car, shooting you, and getting back in (which is the same way you attack apparently). Apparently parked cars are collectable by running over them, you can drive sideways, and running over and killing hookers heals you. You hear that kids, killing hookers is good for you.
There are tonnes of enemies, and if the player isn’t careful, it’s very easy to get swarmed by them, and as the maps are basically a grid (it represents the city, clearly) there’s no where to really hide. The game is only three maps long, so as long as you don’t run out of lives too soon, it’s a fairly quick game to finish.
Possibly the only good thing about the game is how well done the enemies are; they are badly drawn, but well enough that when they drive you see them actually steering. It’s a nice idea but unfortunately the rest of the game is too terrible to really merit being called a game at all. If you don’t want your love for the GTA series to be ruined, don’t try this game. If you don’t care either way, it can be found here.
