Item Description
True Crime: Streets of LA asks a question the open-world games of 2003 mostly ignored: what if you played the cop? Luxoflux's free-roaming action game, published by Activision in the wake of Grand Theft Auto III, casts you as Nick Kang, a hot-headed LAPD detective pulled into the Elite Operations Division to investigate a string of Chinatown bombings, a case that slowly leads him toward the truth about his missing father. The setup is pure buddy-cop blockbuster, and the game plays it with total conviction.
Its Los Angeles was a showpiece at the time: a recreated 240-square-mile city with more than a hundred real landmarks, stretching across Hollywood, Beverly Hills, Santa Monica and beyond. Kang can drive anything on the road, trade shots in slow, stylish gunfights and throw down in a surprisingly deep martial-arts system, and the badges you earn can be spent at 24/7 training facilities to learn new fighting moves, shooting skills and driving techniques. Between story missions, the police radio crackles with random street crimes to respond to.
The heart of it is the Good Cop/Bad Cop meter. Arrest suspects, shoot to wound and solve crimes, and you stay on the right side of the law; take reckless headshots and endanger civilians, and the city turns on you, eventually with your own department in pursuit. That meter steers the branching story toward different endings, and failing a mission often opens a new path rather than ending your run, so no two playthroughs unfold quite alike. The voice cast is stacked: Russell Wong as Kang, with Christopher Walken, Gary Oldman, Michelle Rodriguez, CCH Pounder, Michael Madsen and James Hong, plus Snoop Dogg as an unlockable character with his own mission and a West Coast hip-hop soundtrack to match.
It sold over three million copies, led to True Crime: New York City, and its DNA lives on in Sleeping Dogs, which began life as True Crime: Hong Kong. Playing the original on the PS2 is a trip back to the swaggering, anything-goes years right after GTA III, when every publisher wanted its own city and this one gave you a badge instead of a rap sheet.

About the game
True Crime: Streets of LA is a free-roaming driving and action game similar in concept to Grand Theft Auto III. The game's structure is mission-based; most of the missions are dictated by the story and initiate following a cutscene that advances it. Failing a mission still allows the player to continue playing through the chapter and undertake subsequent missions; in some cases this will lead to branching paths and optional missions. However, in order to complete the whole chapter the player must eventually succeed in all the main missions.
