I'm just not having fun.

>>12690203
Are you saying zelda 64 and mario 64 are bad because this is a game heavily inspired by those two.

How does someone play those games then proceed to make one of the worst controlling games possible?
>>
>>12690397
It controls fine, zoomer.
>>
>>12690406
GTA3 has terrible controls for 1996, let alone its actual release year of 2001.
>>
>>12690407
It literally doesn't, you weren't even born in 1996.
>>
>>12690408
Wrong on both accounts. The only way GTA3 would ever seem acceptable is if you've never played a video game before in your life, which I'm sure most of its fans hadn't.
>>
>>12690409
It's literally fine, I beat the game when it was new and I was 12, the controls are not a problem at all.
>>
>>12690412
>the controls are not a problem at all.
You can't even aim and the autoaim is so atrocious most of the game you just run people over because it's way easier and more reliable. The hardest challenge is the last mission, a hallway with some enemies and no way to bring a car. Just trash.
>>
>>12690414
Play the PC version and quit crying
>>
>>12690414
lmao I forget that some people were PClets

God, having a PC was already fantastic at the time, I could emulate all the NES, SNES, and Genesis games I had missed out on, and there were so many amazing DOS and Windows titles too, and that was on top of when cool as fuck new games came out, like Half-Life, GTA3, Diablo 2, Morrowind, Simcity 3000, etc, etc.

The ludo never stopped in those days, and there's so much of it left that it'll last me a lifetime.

turn ur console on
>>
>>12690414
None of those are flaws.
>>
>>12690206
and maybe some dogshit indiegame was also inspired by 'name a good game here', would that automatically mean that 'insert good game' is bad? by your logic, yes.
so please name your favorite game and ill make a shitty gamemaker game 'inspired' by it, then making your favorite game objectively dogshit to you in your own opinion.

it happens, if you wanna have fun, may i suggest 'Kururin Squash' for the Gamecube?

I stopped having fun around the mission where you have to kill the mob boss outside the theater and escape in the car. The difficulty is absurd in general, but that mission made me quit. It's a shame, because I did think it was a fun game before that, even if it was hard at times.
>>
>>12690414
Get better? I've finished this game on Xbox, PS2, and PC.

>lmao I forget that some people were PClets
Alright? You weren't playing console games, retard. It's also not hard to play console games if you don't suck ass at using a controller like OP and apparently yourself.

Mogged by Driver 2

What strategies did you try? I usually shoot him from a nearby rooftop.

Driver 2 got mogged by Driver 1. Awful game.

Oh, but I was, I just got these kinds of games on PC because that's what made sense.

>The difficulty is absurd in general
The only mission in Portland that I could see anyone having the slightest amount of trouble with only makes you kill like 8 people and none of them are even shooting at you. These posts have to be shitposting, there's no way anyone who would take the time to go on chink cartoon forum for 25+ year old video games would be worse at them than your average e-thot streamer
>>
>>12692485
Are you driving up to him and trying to kill him that way? By that point you should have enough money to keep buying sniper rifles even if you fail multiple times, so just buy one and park far enough to not get spotted and snipe him. Ez.
>>
>>12690203
Playing this on ps2 for the first time since 2004. Still holds up, still fun as fuck and still looks good on a crt. The pc versions is inferior, free aim is for posers
>>
>>12693353
>>12695075
Yeah, I didn't think of that. I was just trying to run them over or get out of the car and shoot them, and then their machine guns eat a good bit of my health on the way out and there are eight hundred mob guys and cops chasing me with nowhere to go. I tried like ten times and gave up. I'll have to give it another go, but I lost my save file. I don't want to miss out on GTA3, though, so I guess I've got no choice.
>>12694910
Are you talking about the mission where you have to hit a bunch of people with the sniper rifle on the boat? That one was relatively easy for me. I think it took me like two or three tries. I heard people complaining about that mission in particular, but it wasn't that bad.
I didn't have trouble with most missions, but I didn't feel like they were easy, either. Wasn't uncommon to have to try 2-3 times on some missions (although a good bit of this was just stupidity on my part or not understanding the mechanics). I think it has a reputation for being the hardest in the game for a reason. It's much harder than a lot of other games of the era.
>>
>>12695221
*the hardest game in the series
>>
>>12695221
>It's much harder than a lot of other games of the era.
no it's not. GTA games were never considered challenging by anyone. at most there's a couple missions that annoy people in each game just because they're long and if you fuck up one part of them you have to do everything again
>>
>>12695230
>GTA games were never considered challenging by anyone.
A lot of people were using cheats.
>>
>>12695221
>I was just trying to run them over or get out of the car and shoot them
There are lots of fire escape stairwells you can use to get up onto the nearby rooftops.

The great thing about GTA is that the win conditions are very loose, so as long as the NPC gets killed, it usually doesn't matter how you did it.

>>12694910
>take the time to go on chink cartoon forum for 25+ year old video games
I mean, I've been here forever (2008), but I'm mostly a /b/tard. I just got addicted to /vr/ maybe ten years back (and /g/ maybe five years back) because it's the main video game board here that isn't shit. I've always hated /v/, and I still do. I wish there was a place to discuss modern games that wasn't /v/; everyone on /v/ is a faggot.
>>12695230
Eh. Game difficulty in the 2000s was kinda schizophrenic. I say "a lot of games" because, yeah, a lot of games were much easier than GTA3, but it wasn't really until the 2010s that the vast majority of games were complete pushovers even on the hardest difficulties. The games that were hard in the 2000s were often hard due to jank or weird design choices, though.
>GTA games were never considered challenging by anyone
I guess I'll get back to you when I play the others, but my understanding is that GTA3 is the only one that's considered challenging, and it's an easy ride from there on out.
>>12695232
Yeah, I had a bunch of GTA games as a kid and I never, ever played any of the storyline. I'd just input the cheat codes and go on a rampage. Hours and hours and hours into GTA1, GTA2, LCS, VCS, and the GBA game doing nothing but that.
>>12695236
I guess I'll try it again. It's a game I want to be able to experience in full.
>>
>>12695198
>The pc versions is inferior, free aim is for posers
It definitely makes it way too fucking easy. Too many missions you can just snipe people with the no recoil sight of the free aim. This is also when they have zero clue you're even in their line of sight.

I don't even think this game is challenging on controller either. I think people are just bad at understanding how to approach things with the arsenal you're given.

Driver games are just way too ambitious for PSX
