Their is no GTA8 unless their has been unlicensed remakes and sequels and i would highly doubt their being demo versions of those.

I'll just assume you're talking about the first 3 2d gtas, which the full versions are free and legal downloadable from Rockstar's site. (Not GTA:London, but 1 and 2)

I'm counting the London expansion for GTA 1 as a game.

I agree with Gamer_V here. ( *Must be the first time that happens LOL *)

It's a bit as Unreal: RTNP (Return to Na Pali), in fact that's also a mission pack, but it is commonly regarded as a game on it own.

Go back to 2023 when you belong, Brian!

(In the future Microsoft will run out of names to call their new OSes and start calling them "DOS x.y" again... but the people of this era weren't supposed to know that yet :Angry:)

Ahem, just to clear up the confusion here ...

The filename for the demo version on DOSGames.com is "<b>gta8.zip</b>". So, that's where "GTA 8" likely comes from. The "8", afaik, refers to 8-bit color graphics (ie. 256 colors) used in the game. :thumbsup:

Oh, that's it !
End swell, all swell then.

Brian88 can download the full game from Gamer_V's link.

I'm convinced emmzee knew from the first post what was going on, but had a good laugh with us peons behind his desk.

A likely story...

But I'll accept it for the sake of the space-time continuum.

You'd need to post your system specs for us to answer that.
