...then any one who owns a good enough computer and doesn't have a ps2 should be obligated to buy it. anyone who has played the 1st and 2nd game should know how fun this game'll be. its different because its more realistic, i.e. you save it in the middle instead of having to complete a level in one go to continue. it works very well with the story like this. you can still go on a killing rapage and there is an easy to use lockon feature for the guns which helps in the fully 3d environment.

Please note that this is based on the ps2 version, because the gta games usually dont change that much from ps/ps2 to computer.

Thank GOD!!!

Probably 70 percent of the people reading this review have played GTA3 on the ps2. Many people enjoyed the game, but I was am a little picky. Basicly, I like graphics, and if a game has good graphics, and it has good gameplay, I will play it (unless if it is like a sim game). I found GTA3's gameplay incredible, but the graphics engine did not take advantage of the PS2's rendering power. GTA and GTA2 have both been better for the pc, and I will not be surprised if GTA3 is a heck of a lot better on the PC than the PS2.

Obviously, GTA3 is not for kids, but here is the story, or atleast as most as I know of it. I think it has to do with some sort of a mob, or gang, or mafia or something, and you have to go on these missions for them, and you will be a "made man". These missions include jacking a grandma on the street, killing a pimp, or maybe bombing a few buildings. You can never forget to kill people on the street, or blow up 10 police cars, or even get the cheat code for the tank and cause destruction in the city.

You've heard my opinion, and you obviously know that I would give GTA3 for the PS2 four stars. I am giving it 5 stars for the pc because it will have the excelent gameplay, along with improved graphics and performance. Hope this helps!

Greatest Game EVER

I have always dreamed of the GTA series going 3D. With GTA3, a whole new era of gaming has come of age. As far as I know of, this is the only game that goes from on-foot gameplay to driving without reloading a new interface. This game provides a storyline (unlike other GTA games), and the classic GTA unlimited continued gameplay. It also includes new taxi, paramedic, firetruck, and vigilante missions. These allow you to still get goals to preform long after all the main storyline missions have been completed.
Not sure if it would come out for PC, (and knowing my current PC would never run it,) I bought a PS2 largely for this game (and for the PS2's other perks, like MGS2, Final Fantasy X, etc.), and have not regretted it. Maybe the PC version could add new things, like the ability to make new cars, character skins, etc., which would be great. One thing is for sure, it is going to be worth every penny.

WONDERFUL!!!

I've only breifly played this game on Playstation 2, and it's one of the best I've ever played!
It brings so much more to the experience that is GTA than the older games, let's just hope that the PC version will be as good as the PS2 version.
You can chose from a few different angles, including the classic GTA angle, but it feels as though it's ment to be played in the new, street level angle.
It's more violent that GTA1 and 2, with lots of blood, and you can even kick people (...) in it. The violence feels kind of more real, since you get to view it from the street level. But that dosent bother me, GTA is ment to be violent, and ment to raise discussions on PTA meetings.

It Was Like Playing a Video Game for the First Time

Grand Theft Auto 3 (GTA3) is being released for PC after much speculation that it might not. I am in line for my copy.

As it is not on PC yet, I played the Playstation 2 (PS2) version. Not knowing anything about this game, I picked up the control expecting to play some kind of racing game. And then...

I am standing on a bridge in a prison jump suit. My buddy, who is shot, is climbing into a car before me. He tells me to drive, he "Knows a guy" who can help us.

Without pause, I climb into the car and I am driving. I can go anywhere in this city! I can stop ANYWHERE in this city and get out of my car. I can car-jack anyone's car I want. (Some are junk, some are hotrods and some are fire-trucks!)

I could choose to work my way up the ranks of the mob. Or, I could just choose to go around town and cause trouble! It was like playing a video game for the first time. All I wanted to do was explore this rich world and story-line.

And that is exactly what I plan to do when I get my PC Version. I highly recomend this GTA3 for adult gamers.

If you are a parent, be aware, this game contains very mature subject matter. Including the ability to pick-up ladies of the evening. Nothing graphic, mind you, but the car does rock back and forth as your money disappears.

Pretty fun game

well, well,...the great GTA3 will come out for computer. not surprising. be aware that if it is on computer, the graphics will be about twice as good. They will also add new cars, skins, etc... to make the game funner. this game is a non stop player because it is so unrestricted. you can do anything in it. it is the best of it's kind, (and only). one problem though, it will sell like candy to little kids when it comes out, so pre order it now, before prices go up, and before they're all gone. you will not regret buying it.

Best Game This Year!!!

This is the best game. I have iton good authority that this version is to be superior to the PS2 version in every way. It is violent and crude, but that is the way the character is. By the way, you can fly the plane and the helicopter. If you can't wait for this, hang on HALO is coming to PC as well.

This game is phat or off the hook
