Fans want the legendary GTA alternative back gameandnews

There are many GTA copies, but only one alternative is as colorful and popular as The Simpsons: Hit & Run. The legendary video game celebrates its 20th birthday this year.

How popular the 20-year-old game is with fans is shown, among other things, by a new Reddit thread, which within a very short time almost 70,000 upvotes had received. The demands of the fans: Hit & Run should finally get a new edition!
