While at its core Auto Hustle is a straight conversion of Grand Theft Auto for Facebook, that's not necessarily a bad thing. Get this: You are a criminal, and you don't care too much for anyone else but you. Armed with an apartment, jobs, and a few guns, you can go out and conquer the city as you see fit.
It all started out so innocently. For years now, Facebook has been rightly or wrongly associated with disarmingly endearing characters and bucolic bouts of farming, and most brutal action largely goes on in text in grittier games such as Mafia Wars. MetroGames' Auto Hustle seeks to change all that. Taking Rockstar's famed and controversial Grand Theft Auto formula and sprinkling it with a few doses of social gaming, Auto Hustle brings GTA's saga of car theft, mass murder, and inevitable reckless driving to Facebook while suffering a few wrecks in the process.
