Runtime: 58 Minutes
We talk about the beginning of the Grand Theft Auto series. Starting from a computer club in 1984, we follow its creators through the creation of Grand Theft AUto in 1997 into the current day. We'll take a look at Grand Theft Auto's original design document, and talk about how it evolved into the game we know today. Our discussion also includes a relative mixed bags of reviews, and we touch on our own experiences with the game. Stick around and join us for today's trip down Memory Card Lane.
