Turning Every 3D GTA into GTA 1 & 2 (GTA 3 – GTA 5)

Grand Theft Auto started in 1997 as a chaotic, top-down 2D crime simulator. In 2001, GTA III changed gaming forever by taking the franchise into full 3D—and Rockstar never looked back.

Today, we're undoing 20+ years of 3D gaming history.

Using native camera modes, debug settings, and camera script mods, I played through the iconic missions across EVERY mainline 3D Grand Theft Auto title using only a top-down, bird’s-eye 2D perspective:

🕹️ Games Tested:
• Grand Theft Auto III (Using the built-in top-down camera view)
• Grand Theft Auto: Vice City (top-down camera view MOD)
• Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (top-down camera view MOD)
• Grand Theft Auto IV (top-down camera view MOD)
• Grand Theft Auto V (top-down camera view MOD)

Some games play shockingly well with the old-school retro vibe, while others become an absolute nightmare the second you need to aim a weapon or drive under an overpass. Which game held up the best? Let’s find out.

⏱️ TIMESTAMPS:
00:00 - INTRO
00:15 - GTA 3 (Rockstar's Secret Built-In 2D Mode)
01:47 - GTA Vice City: MOD
03:17 - GTA San Andreas: MOD
04:49 - GTA IV: MOD
