True Crime: Streets of LA
Brad joins the hordes on the street...

"Los Angeles, some call it the city of Angels. I guess those people have never been here because when I move around the streets, I don't see any. Angels fear to tread where on every street corner there are pushers, pimps, hustlers, entire neighbourhoods scared to go outside for fear of being caught in the crossfire of some gang war and of course, me. My name is Nick Kang and I work for the EOD, an elite force of cops working with the Bureau to bring down organised crime. This city is rotting away from the inside, and I plan to do something about it. Sure, things won't change overnight, and things certainly won't get better just because of me, but every piece of trash I put behind bars lets me sleep a little easier. Maybe I don't play by the rules all the time, but if I did things wouldn't get done, and getting things done is what I do best."
Enough of this B-Movie monologue already! True Crime: Streets of LA sees you taking the role of Nick Kang, a recently suspended LAPD detective who has been recruited by the EOD to work on a case involving the Chinese Mafia. As is customary these days, things are not so simple and many of LA's underground are involved in a (kind of) twisted journey through the seedy underbelly of Los Angeles. As Nick Kang you get to drive, shoot, fight hand to hand, and wisecrack your way around an accurately modelled rendition of Los Angeles in order to solve the crime, save the day and stop the bad guys. All this is wrapped up in a very Grand Theft Auto style package. Even as a Cop/EOD agent you get to appropriate vehicles from Los Angeles citizenry should it take your fancy and because you are a cop you can get away with shooting or bludgeoning the helpless inhabitants with no consequences. Or so it would seem.
The most interesting thing about TC:SoLA is the Good Cop / Bad Cop mechanic which makes up for the lack of actually being the criminal element in such games. Completing missions without any civilian casualties, making arrests instead of kills and helping grannies cross the street sees your Good Cop rating rise. Running riot around the city offing civilians and criminals regardless will see the scales tip in the favour of the Bad Cop. Go far enough into the red and the character of Nick Kang changes, not only do his witty retorts change from the typical buddy movie style quips Governor Arnie would be proud to churn out to something slightly more sinister. He also changes his outfit a few times depending how tightly the Dark Side of the (Police) Force has him in its grasp. Now outfit changes are no big deal these days, and indeed if this was the extent of the changes I would not be wasting time talking about them for so long, but the changes actually effect the story both in its direction and its execution.
The story has a very definite arc while playing the good cop, but depending on when the player decides to turn bad - allows a couple of branches which change the direction of the story completely and doing helps the game's longevity by giving the player three complete stories to play which can be decided upon on the fly.

I need to know how to throw a raging party in the sims xbox game.
if you own a game cube or can't get vice city for some reason or another and you want a vice city type game get this but unless that is the case i would recomend against it the shooting interface is quite hard to use it's more like a set of squares than a circle if you know what i mean the camera is very tough to work around the street crime idea is good but there is only 5 or so types of crime the good cop bad cop idea is good but the good cop is actually very hard to achieve and very strange and your bad cop route is short i give them mad props for mapping la but i would stick to liberty city instead of la
how do u get the motercycle.
when you at that that kinda in that fight with that pimp get out keep going make a left there is a secret door you got a new place detroit go to a trailer park go to the 9th one on the left eminem is there he is with you for the whole game he tells you he is putting a concert on at 12:00 am there are thugs shoot them all eminem will let you go back stage you got a motercycle
How do I get onto the LA river?
Sorry, but 82 is pretty low score to this game. It is much better then GTA3 and Vice city together [ i have finished it], it is inovating, and it has GREAT atmosphere of B-movies with Jet Li. This is surely one of the best games in my life! My rating is 95%.
unless this game has been drastically changed from xbox i wouldbe hard pressed to say it even gets a 60
yes alot like it and better..
I that person would have prefered if you gave him an answer that actually had punctuation, so he could understand you. I didn't understand a damn thing you said. (Eminem?!)
I've seen on the commercial for True Crime where you can have snoop dogg ...can nebody inform me on how to get him or give me ne information about that?

YES OR YES
To play as Snoop: right trigger, left trigger, up, right, left
, down, press left analog, press right analog, A, X, B, and Y
This game is just plain sweet. It's fun to try and be the good cop. Even when they have they're hands up and seem to be giving up, they could throw down on you at the last minute and take you completely by surprise. Although it isn't near as interactive as GTA:Vice City, it is really and truly an amazing game. And now if I ever go to LA, I won't have to buy a map.
I LOVE TRUE CRIME STREETS OF LA
Vice City has better driving physics. In Vice City, cars don't just slide like inanimate bars of soap into sidewalks when hit from the side. I love the driving maneuvers that you learn as you progress in True Crime, but these button combinations make being a good driver too easy. Lastly, I HATE the L3 stick on the Playstation 2 controller. At least in Vice City you had a choice between using the L3 "nipple stick" and the normal D-pad to steer vehicles.
The game could have been way better that what it turned out to be. What a Let Down!
Good game I love it
this is a good game
bye it now
I need help on one of the levels for tru crimes
THIS GAME IS RAW, IT'S WAY BETTER THAN VICE CITY BECUASE HE'S A COP BUT HE CAN STILL BE A BAD GUY. PLUS YOU CAN PLAY WITH SNOOP DOGG, AND THE CARS ARE SERIOUS LIKE THE ESCALADE AND THE LAMBORGHINI AND THE BENTLEY. IT'S THE BEST GAME OF THE YEAR

true crime is awesome
Vice City is more interactive as in the city is better. Its not repetitive, you can actually go into buildings. You can find parked cars which is nonexistant in true crimes, except in the parking garage. Not many car varieties, you cant fly a helicopter or drive a boat, but I admit the driving skills aspect is better, and the shooting when your in a car. But holding a AK47 with one hand? cmon unrealistic. The GTA crew should work with the TRUE CRIME crew to make somethin like GTA True crime.
