Unlike its predecesor, this one was actually quite playable. And dont be fooled by the low FPS, it was actually very responsive. Since the game was of a topdown design, the extremely low resolution might not be an issue. I would definetely say this on SurfaceProGaming certiifed.
Do note that you must do the following or you might get a weird zoomed in resolution.
- Go to the GTA2 Install Directory
- Right click on the gta2.exe file and go to properties
- Go to the Compatibility Tab
- Check the "Disable Display Scaling on high DPI settings" checkbox
- Click on Apply/Ok
