"GTA Sin City" attempts to replicate a GTA experience similar to the original "Grand Theft Auto 2".
Controls: 8.5/10
The controls are mostly fine - however, putting the shoot key in the second column seems a bit awkward. I had trouble aiming accurately at targets (but that's probably typical of GTA). Maybe the author could consider switching the hijack and shoot keys?
Graphics: 8/10
Yes, the graphics are decent for a TI-89/92/V200 calculator game. However, they seem repetitive - I became lost quite easily, since I could not uniquely identify my location in the game city.
Gameplay: 7/10
Gameplay is good overall. I like the police presence. The missions are fairly fun. But the lack of more weapons is a real limitation, especially when being chased by police (and police cars). Additionally, the player really can't do much with the large amounts of money it is possible to acquire.
Authenticity: 9/10
The game is overall very authentic compared to something like GTA2 for PC. The names of the gangs, the telephone system, blowing up cars, respraying, etc should be strongly familiar to GTA players. Of course, there are some minor/trivial differences I won't bother to mention.
Replay Value: 5/10
Unfortunately, when you finish all the missions and races, there really isn't much left to do.
Conclusion: 7.5/10
Decent game and a fine implementation of GTA for your calculator. Download it and try it out!
