My favorite is when a car crashes in the water, but you manage to get out in time. You're left in the middle of the water, standing on the car! "Now let's see if I can make that jump!" :P

It sounds to me that GTA 3 was the best of them all. Maybe i'll have to buy the double pack. I was wondering if it was worth it and it seems to be.

If u mess wit the best you go down like the rest and thats why I suggest you dont mess wit this pest

San Andreas is better than III and Vice City combined, if you haven't spent much time with the other two. just get SA and forget the others. the only reasons I don't like it is #1 it was overhyped so I was expecting a lot out of it, and #2 I'm getting tired of GTA in general...

'Grand Theft Auto 3' set the standard for which all free-form mission based action games are judged, so any many minds it still remains the favorite of the series (just look at all the copycat games it spawned).

'San Andreas' may have improved on a number of things (swimming, fence jumping, etc.) but still owes its core gameplay to what was established in 'GTA3'.
The whole eating and exercising thing is new but I can see how that could possibly detract from the true flow of the game action. I'm also not a big fan of the early 90's "gansta ghetto boyz" theme, and much prefer the retro 80's in 'Vice City'. Tommy Vercetti is an excellent main character too.

'GTA3' is a must have however.

Well it was SUPPOSED to be!

No I'm no pirate. I actually "paid" for it. No actual CD case or anything though.
So that makes somebody else the pirate, and me a "dealer".

(And it plays beautifully on Dreamcast!)

Also 'Ikaruga' is an import.

I can see your point Z.E.N. GTA III and Vice City were certainly good for a few reasons. and I agree that the eating and exercising does somewhat detract from the flow. I'm also not a fan of the early 90's ghetto junk, but it is a fun game to play. Not as much as III and Vice City were in their day though.


(I hate Vice City on the PS2 because it was a rushed, bug ridden piece of trash)

Well that was the point. I have no doubt that 'GTA San Andreas' is the most well constructed game in the series, it's just not as groundbreaking.

That's why I got the PC version. IT rocks!
And I can play it with my PS style USB controller. I can also upload mp3's to play on the car radio stations and use custom player skins (nothing like seeing Tommy in a Nintendo shirt).

I'll pretend I didn't download all three :P

Half Life is claimed (and proven by me) to overheat the DC though. After playing for about an hour and a half I opened the disc cover and the dashboad deal was all scrambled and stuff, I haven't played it since then...
