Retro Gameplay Reviews, in this episode Aj & Andy take a closer look at the original GTA, Grand Theft Auto 1 on the Playstation 1. The game that started the entire megalithic franchise that is Grand Theft Auto, which seems unlikely when you play this 2D pixel art, top down cartoon open world game. The controls haven't aged well, the visual are choppy and headache inducing and the overall user experience is a tough one, but there is still a huge amount of charm and fun to be had in the first edition of Grand Theft Auto.
