There are 7 gangs in the game:
There are 7 gangs in the game:
* '''[[Zaibatsu]] Corporation''' (symbol: yellow 'Z') - They appear in all of the areas and are a seemingly legitimate corporation who manufacture everything from cars and weapons to medication, but beneath the surface they are involved heavily in narcotics, contract-killing and shadowy politics. Their car, called a [[Z-Type]], is the second fastest gang car available. The Zaibatsu is apparently led by at least three leaders, or at least have three executives through whom they organize their criminal activities: [[Trey Welsh]] in the Commercial District, [[Red Valdez]] in the Residential District, and [[Uno Carb]] in the Industrial District. Their gang color is black. Their name comes from zaibatsu, the Japanese word for conglomerate.

* '''[[Russian Mafia]]''' (symbol: a red star) - They appear in the third area and specialize in contract-killing and gun running. Their car is the [[Bulwark]], a station wagon, which is the most durable gang car in the game (capable of surviving one direct hit from a rocket propelled grenade, hand grenade or Molotov cocktail, if the car is in perfect condition). They can be seen in the seaport areas. [[Jerkov]] is the name of their boss. They use red as a gang color.

===Radio stations===
<-- FROM WIKIPEDIA with small changes -->
Each area features five [[radio stations]] from a pool of eleven, in which one of them would be played as the player drives most vehicles in game. Changing radio stations for preference was also possible in the Windows PC version by using the [[function key|"F1" function key]]." "Head Radio" was present in the original ''[[Grand Theft Auto (game)|GTA]]'', ''[[Grand Theft Auto III]]'' and ''[[Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories]]''. Each gang also has its own radio station that transmits within a limited area.
*'''Head Radio''' — The city's largest commercial radio station. It can be received in all areas of the game. The [[Disk jockey|DJ]]'s names are Phanny Joe Styles and Johnny Riccaro. Head Radio plays modern pop and rock.
*'''Rockstar Radio''' — A commercial radio station in the Downtown Area. Sammy Starock is the name of the DJ. The station plays pop and rock and occasionally features on-air phone calls from "listeners".
*'''KREZ''' — The Residential Area's commercial station which plays [[hip hop music|hip hop]] and rap. The DJ is Richie T.
*'''Lo-Fi FM''' — A commercial station in the Industrial Area that plays oldies and pop. The DJ (DJ Die/Dye — Dai is a Welsh abbreviation for the name 'David') is Welsh and seems to have no ties to gangs in the area.
*'''Futuro FM''' — The Zaibatsu gang's station. It can be received in all three areas. The DJ, Dean Franz, plays dance, jazz-oriented pop and Funk.
*'''Funami FM''' — The Yakuza gang's station in the Downtown Area. The music is [[drum and bass]]-type [[electronic music]]. The station is hosted by a Japanese man and a frantically screaming Japanese woman (in a varied high-pitch voice) calling herself Teriyaki-chan, whose speech is unintelligible apart from a few random phrases of English.
*'''Lithium FM''' — The Loonies' station. Features a totally insane DJ, Spaz Funbags, as well as some oldies and dance-music.
*'''Rebel Radio/KING''' — The Redneck gang station in the Residential Area. The DJ, Marshall Nash, has a thick Southern accent. The music of choice is modern and classic rock.
*'''Osmosis Radio''' — The Scientists' station, transmitting in the Residential Area. The DJ "Mama Doc", who is Icelandic or Scandinavian, plays modern dance music.
*'''Heavenly Radio''' — The Krishnas' gang station, transmitting in the Industrial Sector. The music is a mix of Jesus-pop and soft music. Listeners are continuously urged by the station's DJ, Venus Ordelia, to convert.
*'''KGBH''' — Radio station of the Russian mafia with DJ Bombatumba. KGBH frequently encounters both technical and personal problems that interfere with their broadcasts. The station primarily plays classic rock.
