#10: “Midnight Club: Los Angeles” (2009)

We’re staring off this list with what some like to call “GTA Racing”. That’s because Midnight club: LA uses the same game engine as Grand Theft Auto 4, resulting in an open world free roam driving game set in the streets of LA, complete with a large variety of customization options for your car. There’s also a PSP version, which doesn’t have a map of LA as big as its console counterparts but does come with another city: Tokyo.

#9: “The Warriors” (2005)

Top 20 Best Rockstar Games

One of few examples of a licensed game done right, this 3D beat-em up serves as a prequel and eventual revisit to 1979 cult classic film of the same name. As you progess you’ll be covering rival gangs graffiti with your own tags, and the added bonus of drop in Co-op Multiplayer makes the game a whole lot of fun with friends.

#8: “Smugglers Run” (2000)

The game series that eventually would give Angel Studio’s its title of Rockstar San Diego, Smugglers Run was on of the PS2’s earliest titles, so the graphics haven’t aged very well. But never the less, playing as a smuggler in border towns and desert ridges is a hell of a lot of fun. Whether you’re a fan of this game or its sequel Hostile Territory, you’re gonna have a blast.

#7: “Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition” (2005)

The 2nd Midnight club game on this list is a true thrill of nightlife urban racing, DUB Edition comes with a nice variety of licensed cars that you can full customize to suit your driving style. Set in 3 different open world cities, this racing game came with the ability to build up your aggression by ramming everyone off the road, and the ability to go bullet time to squeeze through tight gaps like a pro.

#6: “Manhunt” (2003)

Manhunt: Retrospective | MojoPlays

Rockstar’s most controversial game to date, being banned in multiple countries due to its graphically violent content, the game is based around having to execute people in the most brutal ways possible. That being said, if you’ve got the stomach for it, the tense stealth experience is a really exhilarating from start to finish, and if this game leaves you wanting more, you can also try its sequel.

#5: “Bully” (2006)

Bullworth Academy is quite simply; a school you do NOT want to send your kids to. Like other Rockstar games this too was subject to much controversy, though most of the complains were pretty baseless. Still if you’re up for revisiting your high school tormentors and taking them head on with a slingshot and spitballs this might be the game for you.

#4: “Max Payne 3” (2012)

The spiritual successor from the decent but forgettable “Red Dead Revolver” Redemption takes Rockstar’s Trademark open world setting to the Old West, in a style that beautifully captures the Spaghetti Western genre.
