One of the thing that has disappointed me about the 3D sequels is that they didn't include the hare krishna monks, it was so satisfying to run them over all at once or to kill the leader and have the rest of them follow you around afterwards...aaahhh, good times.

It seems to work best with IPX/SPX! If anyone knows what key to hit to chat in the game, I'd love to know. I've never found it. GTA 2 is also free from Rockstar now but the original is still more fun! I think the free package contains GTA London too and that's also extreme fun with a few friends. <br><br>We've had 24+ hours of GTA lan gaming straight many times.

I still think back on both those games as fun, mostly due to their sandbox style as you mention, those were some of the first games that really implemented that in a good way!
