Author's Notes
-------------------------------
The Grand Theft Auto series is always filled with innovation in its design
because of its free form gameplay and the ability to jack or steal other
cars. Started in 1997 by DMA Designs, it was raved in Europe because of its
innovation and it went on to encounter major successes, especially when
Grand Theft Auto 3 came out. A new age in mainstream gaming began when it
was released in 2001 and it has left its mark in the hall of gaming fame.
This FAQ/Walkthrough will be for GTA 2 for the Game Boy Color. GTA games
were often unsuccessful on the portable Nintendo system, and signs don't
seem to be getting better after the cancellation of GTA3 or so it seems
after months of delays and no sign of shipping out. People often
underestimate the GTA games for the Game Boy portables but they can also be
good forms of entertainment on the go. This guide will list everything about
the game and there may be some spoilers on the way.

A - Your main character, you control him or her.
B - This shows where gang locations and telephones for those gangs are. You
get your missions through those phones.
C - This is the Cop Meter. This shows how hard the cops are searching for you.
If you have it on the low side, only 1 cop will follow you, get it higher
and higher though, they will start to make road blocks, send swat teams,
and get the army after you at higher levels.
D - This is the weapons chart. It shows what weapon you have and how much ammo
of it you have.
E - This is the armor. The number shows how much more damage you can withstand
before losing health.
F - These are keys. Appearently they either unlock something or the level.
G - The number shows how many lives you have left before its game over. You
lose a life when you get killed.
H - This number that goes by 2x, 3x, and so on, mulitiplies the points you are
gaining by that number.
I - This shows your life bar. You start with 5 hearts. Every time you get shot,
you lose a heart. If you get hit by an explosion or drive into water, you
lose all your hearts and die. When you die you go to the closest hospital
around where you died.
J - This shows your score or money acquired. Get enough money and you get to go
into the next stage.
* Shooting
You use the B button to shoot the current weapon you have equiped.
You also use the Select button to switch your current weapon.
Shooting while driving isn't avaliable in this game.
* Driving
To get a car, you have to carjack by getting very close to one and pressing
select.
To drive forward, press the A button then move in the direction you want to go
with the D-Pad.
To move backwards, all you have to do is press downwards on the D-Pad.
Turning is simple as pressing left or right on the D-Pad. Use with the A button
to make turns while going forward.
When you bump into things with your car, it starts to crack untill it looks like
its about to crumble. After the final hit the car explodes. Since the game
doesn't have a better way to show us when the car is about to explode, its best
that you change cars after 7 or 8 hits to it.
Press the B button to honk your horn, even though you can't hear it yourself.
* Gangs & Missions
There are certain gangs that goes with missions. Heres a list of each one of them.
Zaibatsu - The corporation that uses its money to get to the top, making gangs on
the way. They control every section of the city. Their gang car is the
black Z-Type, one of the fastest cars in the game and their characters
are white headed people with black clothing.
Yakuza - An Asian gang thats located in the Downtown area. They drive the blue
Miara, and they have blue heads and dark blue clothing.
Loony - The crazy gang in the Downtown area. They drive the green Volkswagon
shaped Dementia and they have green heads and dark green clothing.
Scientist - This gang works in the Residential area. They drive the yellow Meteor
and their gang members have yellow heads and dark yellow clothing.
Rednecks - The southern based gang that lives in the Residential area. They drive
the blue Pickup and have blue heads with dark blue clothing.
Russians - This gang controls parts of the Industrial area. They drive the red
van-like Bulwark and their gang members have red heads with dark red
clothing.
Krishna - This hippie gang here also works in the Industrial area. They drive the
yellow Bus with crosses on top of it and their gang members have yellow
heads with dark yellow clothing.
These gangs will offer you missions to earn money. Note if you earn the trust of
one gang, the opposing gang will lower their faith in you. Be warned when the gang
faith gets in the negatives, the gang will try to kill you and if its maxed out in
the negatives, then expect to die when you get in their teritory.
For each area each gang hates an other gang.
- Downtown
Zabaitsu hates Loonys, Loonys hates Yakuza, Yakuza hates Zabaitsu
- Residential
Zabaitsu hates Rednecks, Rednecks hate Scientists, Scientists hate Zabaitsu
- Industrial
Zabaitsu hates Krishna, Krishna hates Russians, Russians hate Zabaitsu
* Characters
The following main characters are Calligari, Gretchen, Ruben, Paulo, Candy, and
Eddie. It doesn't matter who you choose, they all interact in the same way. I don't
know if there are any special endings for each character though, I will look this up.
When you start to play the game, the red headed character with white hands is the
character you are controlling. Civillians are purple headed characters and police
are the same as your main character (Kind of stupid that the developers did this).
* What you need to know
- Pick up police badges to lower your cop meter.
- Pick up hearts to gain some extra health.
- You have to be VERY close to a car to jack it, make sure you run into it before
jacking it.
- You can't drive over people without speed or velocity. If you jack a car and a
person is blocking the way, you can't drive over the person so get another car or
wait for the person to move out of the way.
- In this version of the game, it doesn't matter if you hit police cars when your
driving.
- To take better paying missions, get your ranking higher with the gang of your
choosing. To get your rank higher in a fast time, drive over the opposing gang's
members. Get out of there fast afterwards.
- Don't drive into a corner, you will get your car stuck there.

- 2) Common Questions -
--------------------------------
Q: Why are there no vehicle guides for other cars than the gang ones in the FAQ?
A: Because there isn't a name shown for the cars, and without a name, I can't
rate it and tell you about it. The game only tells us the name of the gang
cars.
Q: Aren't there any kill frenzy's in the game?
A: Not that I know of, I think that is only in the console and PC version of GTA2.

kill them all, the leader will tell you that the Loonys like ice cream, so find an ice
