[edit] Grand Theft Auto II

In the game Grand Theft Auto 2, there are 7 gangs that you will meet during the course of the game. They are: The Zaibatsu, Loonies, Yakuza, Scientists, Rednecks, Russians and Hare Krishna. The Zaibatsu are on all 3 maps, the Loonies and Yakuza are on the first map (Downtown), the Scientists and Rednecks (Residential) on the second map and the Russians and Hare Krishna on the third map (Industrial). All armed gang members by default carry pistols and should your respect with a gang fall into negatives, they'll attack you with them. However, when your respect goes down to minus 4 bars they may attack with a more powerful weapon and when you're down to minimum respect they may use a different weapon still on maps 2 and 3, making a total of 3 different types of gunfire aimed in your direction. However, should your respect be at +5 or maximum, the gang members will shoot at anyone attacking you with pistols. If gang members from different gangs are near each other (for example at the border between two territories) then they will start attacking each other.
