True Crime: New York City

Shooting and gunplay

As a cop in a large recreation of New York, you shoot, brawl and drive through a crime story voiced by Hollywood actors. Playing as a straight or corrupt officer shifts missions and the story somewhat.

Driv3r

Shooting and gunplay

As undercover cop Tanner you race and shoot your way through Miami, Nice and Istanbul, hopping into any vehicle while chasing a car theft ring. It is known for its ambitious sandbox structure, but also for high frustration and technical rough edges.

Grand Theft Auto: Vice City

Dense, handcrafted world

As Tommy Vercetti you rise from lackey to crime lord in a neon-soaked take on 1980s Miami, with sharp satire, a sprawling city to cause chaos in, and an iconic licensed radio soundtrack.

Mafia

Strong, story-driven narrative

A cinematic gangster drama set in 1930s Lost Heaven, following cab driver Tommy Angelo's rise within the Salieri crime family. Authentic period cars, punishing shootouts and one of the finest stories of its era make it a classic.

Sleeping Dogs

Dense, handcrafted world

As undercover cop Wei Shen, you infiltrate the Triads in a neon-lit Hong Kong, brawling through kung-fu-movie style melee with counters and brutal environmental takedowns, plus car chases. Its tale of torn loyalties between police and gang is the real hook.

Mafia II

Strong, story-driven narrative

A cinematic gangster saga set in postwar America, following Vito Scaletta's rise through the mob with cover shooting, period car chases and rich 1940s–50s atmosphere. Empire Bay is less a playground than a lovingly detailed backdrop for a tight, linear crime story.

True Crime: Streets of LA

Shooting and gunplay

A GTA-style open-world action game where you play a rogue cop in a recreated Los Angeles, mixing gunplay, martial arts and driving chases. Failed missions lead to branching story paths.

Mafia: Definitive Edition

Strong, story-driven narrative

A cinematic gangster drama set in Prohibition-era America, following cab driver Tommy as he rises through the Salieri crime family. Its strong story, atmospheric city and mix of gunfights and period car driving define the experience.

Driver 2: Back on the Streets

Challenging difficulty

A 3D driving game inspired by 70s cop movies, where you play undercover cop Tanner in wild car chases across four cities, and can now also leave the car and move on foot. Missions are tough and the on-foot controls feel clunky.
