Rockstar Games, known for its legendary Grant Theft Auto series, is re-releasing the original game and GTA2 for free under its Rockstar classics program for free download. These games were both innovative and ground-breaking in gameplay, freestyle exploration, and plain addictive fun. All you need is to fill out a small registration form and you’ll be happily on your way to retro gaming bliss. Wild Metal is another game being offered for free download. These games have all been ported to run on today’s latest hardware.
From Rockstar Games:
In 1997, a band of developers that would come to be known as Rockstar North and Rockstar Games released the original Grand Theft Auto on an unsuspecting public. The groundbreaking non-linear urban crime game shook up a complacent game industry with its irreverent gameplay, humor and style- and a phenomenon was born.
We are now offering this classic progenitor of the Rockstar Games lineage as the first in a recurring series of Rockstar PC game downloads, absolutely free of charge. It’s a chance for new fans to experience the roots of Rockstar as well as our way of saying thank you to our long-time supporters feeling that pang of nostalgia. Simply fill out the form below and check your email for a direct link to the file – we’ve even optimized the game for play on the latest and greatest computers. Now, don’t say we never gave you anything.
