A video review for the 1997 PC game "Crime Cities". This game was incredibly good fun once the player sorted out the starting controls and turned the difficulty right down to Very Easy. By modern standards it may be a bit repetitive or bland, but racing round 3D cities in flying cars shooting at enemies has never been more fun. Certainly I've never played any game quite like it on the PC. Well worth a look at if you can find a copy.

While features-wise it might sound a bit limited and from my always uninterested commentary, the game is one that takes time to master the flying on and has a simple nature to it which can still be very absorbing over games which do many things but badly. The final point I have to emphasise is that it was FUN. Unlike many other games, I actually took the time to complete this 6 or so years ago and can therefore recommend it. Feel free to leave comments or ask me questions about it.

System Requirements:
Windows 98/NT 4.0/2000/ Pentium II 200 MHz (recommended 233 MHz)/ 32 MB RAM (recommend 64 MB RAM)/ OpenGL compatible 3D accelerated graphics card with 4 MB VRAM/ DirectX 6.0/ 8x CD-ROM/ Sound card

~ Edit: 1) You can't choose your planets as suggested but complete them in order like levels
2) For changing the compatability, right click on the application and go to "Properties" which has an option at the top bar to change "Compatability" after which you can change it from Vista or whatever operating system you have to Win 98/ME.
