This is one of my most highly anticipated games. Does anyone remember the original Atari arcade classic? It was frickin' awesome!
The first time I played GTA (the original) it reminded me of APB, but in reverse. They were both top-down driving games about pursuing criminals, only in APB you were the cops. Now one of the guys that worked on the original GTA is remaking APB; I'm pretty sure that's no coincidence.
I'm not expecting APB's transition to 3D to be as monumental as GTA's, but I'm praying they capture some of the spirit of the original (donut stops!). Some of the concept art has me a bit worried though; all the characters look the street punks in cheesy '80s action movies. Not entirely sure how it will work as an MMO either, but I'm gonna keep my hopes up.
For anyone that hasn't played the original, I suggest downloading MAME and giving it a whirl (there was a pretty decent version for the Atari Lynx as well, though not up to the standard of the arcade).
