>NA: 23 October 2001 >PAL: 26 October 2001What do you remember about GTA III?https://youtu.be/8-GcjlvI6Rs
>>750220046I remember walking into a Gamestop at the local mall and they had a kiosk for people to play it. I walked up and played it for about 20 seconds before some sniveling faggot employee ran over and ripped the controller out of my hands before berating me because I wasn't "allowed" to play an M rated game without my parents' permission.
>>750220046I remember that first island like the back of my hand. I also remember begging my parents to buy it for me for Christmas and getting GTA3...aka Gran Turismo 3 A-Spec. Ended up using Christmas money to buy the actual game later that month.
I'm a zoomer that grew up with a PS2 and I never beat GTA 3, too hard. Finished Vice City first then San Andreas though
Used to take turns with my friend starting a new game and seeing how much money (from killing NPCs) you could make before you die
SORRY BABEI'M AN AMBITIOUS GIRL AND YOUARE SMALL TIME
saints row 1 is a sequel to gta 3 saints row 2 is a sequel to gta sa
>>750220220I wanted a PS2 for MGS2 but my older brother wanted it for GTA3. I never even heard of GTA before so I had no clue why the fuck the 3rd one would be any good.What a shock lol
>>750220475I always thought Saints Row 2 is a sequel to Saints Row 1 for some reason
>>750220046I'm still pissed they never finished the northern part of the map
>>750220475>>750220597SR2 is was everyone wanted GTA4 to be.
>>750220046GTA 3 holds a special place in my heart. I’m always up for playing it. I don’t necessarily need to beat the game; I just enjoy driving around and listen music. And it’s the world itself that I like most of all. As someone once remarked in a thread, GTA 3 is the one that truly feels like GTA, whereas Vice City and San Andreas just a stylization
>>750220475Manhunt is the real sequel to GTA 3
>>750220658i'd like to go back to these games but I don't want to use a button to drive. what's the easiest way to retain the original game and its aesthetic but use RT for the accelerator
I just beat the tourismo mission and I keep doing on the laundry mission, is there any way way to get good at this game? I keep getting bodied and each mission is taking 10+ attempts.
>>750220720play the xbox version?
Today it's all about the musichttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-FQ1Vv4hUKI&vl=en
>>750220631I haven't played this game in 20 years, someone tell me where that car dealership where you can ram through the window and steal a Banshee isNear the docks I think
>>750220778Bottom left part of that pic
>>750220778bottom left of the furthest left island.
>>750220931>>750220989Yeah I can see the very obvious docks, sillyheads. Which building is it?
>>750220046The 1999 of gaming
>>750220778Here
>>750221027it's not near the docks, that's the diner where you find the dead skunk in the trunkthe Banshee is in the dealership right next to 8-ball and the car crusher
>>750221083>>750221117That's crazy, my thought process was literally "I remember it being on a hill, but this entire map is flat except for that one weird hill at the very bottom but that can't be it"Thanks

It's the only GTA game I never finished but it was a lot of fun dicking around and using cheat codes. I liked the flying car cheat.
I wish to do a marathon replay one day of the 3D era, complete with Manhunt and Bully. I just need to find the time...
>>750220046When some classmates described the gameplay and what you could go in 3 and Vice City, it sounded unreal. Like how could all that be even possible.
I only had fun with GTA because I played them with friends but by 4 that wasn't enough, it was shit and their games have been shit since then.
LIBERTY CITY COCKS RULE!
>>750221707funnest part of 4 was the freemode multiplayerespecially gay tony and the buzzard that spawned at the airport, you could rape lobbies with it
>>750221514I remember having to explain everything you could do in GTA3 to classmates in grade school because my brother had it and I watched him play it. They always thought the coolest part was that you could actually shoot down the police helicopters that come after you if you kill enough people.Many kids including myself wished you could steal the helicopter and fly it, but we had to wait for GTA VC to fly the helicopters.
>>750220046I played it at a friend's house and it absolutely blew my mind. I could not believe someone made a video game that was an entire living city with radio and pedestrians that reacted to things around them.I wish the industry didn't turn out the way it has. We should have gotten an explosion of new innovative living worlds and instead we got Dark Souls but you mash a gallop button for 6 hours.
>>750220561Yeah my first time playing GTA was GTA2. My older brother has this Jamacain girlfriend and he'd go to her house to fuck her and he'd take me with her. Me and her little brother would play his mini PS1 and he had GTA2 which I had no idea what it was....INSTANTLY hooked. When GTA3 came out I HAD to have that shit.
>>750220220>begging my parents to buy it for me for Christmas and getting GTA3...aka Gran Turismo 3 A-Specdamn
>>750220046Always been shit. I remember borrowing San Andreas from a friend who had an older brother and dropped it after like half an hour. Couldn't stand that blocky snap to shoot auto aim "gameplay" and if I wanted to drive a car I'll go play a racing game
>>750222234>he'd take me with her
>>750220046coming from vc and sa, waka-gashira wipeout left a real knot in my stomach as a kid. couldn’t comprehend this dude who’s otherwise amicable toward kenji’s sister and you run him over without a second thought. real mercenary. game’s got a real dirty vibe, sense of grime to it, still unbeaten.
>>750220046The theme song and the guy with the messed up hands
i bought the "definitive edition" on a whim because it was on sale. not only have i never re-funded a game before this, i was surprised at how long it took. i must have played for a maximum of 15 seconds. it was probably closer to 5 seconds. 5 seconds to see just how immeasurably disappointing this version was. i remember hearing about how much of a travesty it was, but hey, i was willing to overlook things. by god. what an embarrassment. it's so fucking bad.
>>750220046My friend had GTA 2 and on the back of the booklet there were screenshots of GTA 3 and it blew our minds. We played the shit out of it when it came out and for years after. So much fun was had just fucking around.

>>750220046trying to jump the broken bridge
>>750220046I remember spending time just sniping people and being fascinated by the way you could blow off their limbs and heads, like that sort of detail wasn't really a thing in the console games I had played up to that pointi also spent way too long trying to do the dodo flight trick, I never got it fully into the air for sustained flight
>>750220046I have it on Switch, it's OK, but nothing special. Vice City and San Andreas MOG it five ways to Sunday.

Who is this guy?
