Was there ever a arcade game for this because I wanted to know was it ever in the arcades?

An arcade version of GTA really wouldn't work.

They'd have to get rid of the original missions and replace them with about 3 or 4 "challenges" which each take about 10 minutes to complete. I dunno, something like "kill the rats" where the aim is to race around shooting up gangsters who wired to the feds. Or something along those lines.

To be honest though, a GTA game in the arcades would never happen because of the moral outcry that would be sure to follow. "How can they let our youth play such filth in public?!".

out of interest, given how many missions there are in the GTA games, how would you envision an arcade port to work?
either it's cheap and the players buy so many lives that only a few people get to play because the games go on for ages, or you die having done about 1% of the game.

Did you ever go to fun in the park at hylands? Because I got to play it for free then and I think I got to the end to.

I think I completed it. Dunno why I carried on playing it through to the end.

The bit with the T-rex was fun though. You know, the bit where you rampaged throught the army guys' camp and ate everyone.

And then you got past that level and the game went back to being just as dire as before.

That arcade one was great when the giant T.REX chased you.

There was this really cool shooting game of "The Lost World" where you sat inside this little booth in front of a massive screen and blasted the hell out of a bunch of dinos. And then the PS1 version turned up and it was a crap platformer.
