12. Grand Theft Auto (Original Release: PC & PS1, 1998)
The game that started it all. And yet, GTA 1 is also the least necessary game to play in the main series. Everything within GTA 1 is majorly improved in future games. GTA 1 just hasn’t aged very well, thanks to difficulty spikes that vary from mission to mission.
FUN FACT: See that on the cover? That is Trump Tower. The Tower also appeared in GTA IV,with the description that it “was built by Lyle Cleethorpes V purely to demonstrate to the world his great wealth. As a filthy-rich heir to a, quite frankly, awful family, fame-obsessed Cleethorpes will do anything to get his face or name up in lights.”
