  • Murdering Innocent People And Stealing Fast Cars, What More Could You Ask For?

    Jul 18 '02
    Pros: Graphics, sound, gameplay, HUGE
    Cons: The control is annoying at times

    Summary: So, in December 2001 Grand Theft Auto 3 hit the shelves here in Norway. This was only released for Playstation 2, and so neither my friends nor I were able to play this game that we had heard so many fabulous things about. I went to websites like ... read more

  • Grand Theft Auto III for Windows PC

    Aug 12 '06
    Pros: Original premise, lots of chaos
    Cons: Horrible controls, it got old for me

    Summary: I understood the initial appeal of Grand Theft Auto III, but I never understood the lasting appeal of the game. Once you get past the novelty of the premise, it really isn’t that much fun. I’ve not yet played the sequels to this very successful ... read more

  • Psychotic, hilarious and utterly good fun

    Jan 14 '05
    Pros: Excellent vehicle dynamics, unique open-ended architecture, witty, anarchic soundtrack, highly addictive
    Cons: Modeling and texturing could be better, needs a fairly fast system to run smoothly

    Summary: When I discovered the Grand Theft Auto series for the first time, I was totally hooked, and I knew I'd found something a little bit special. Like many others I knew roughly what to expect in the much anticipated third installment, but I never expected ... read more

  • GTA 3; A Mafioso Masterpiece...

    Mar 27 '04
    Pros: Made by Rockstar, great graphics, high replay value
    Cons: missions can get a little tough

    Summary: So, you're at the store and your looking for a great game... You browse, and browse, and browse... You find nothing... Until... You see the box for Grand Theft Auto 3, by Rockstar Productions sitting all alone, abandoned behind another game about ... read more

  • XBox GTAIII/Vice City 2-Pak (Double the insanity!)

    Dec 07 '03
    Pros: Free-roam FPS, racer, RPG, and mission based. Hours of entertainment.
    Cons: Quirky. Technical, buggy issues. Character animations are limited. Somewhat repetitive gameplay.

    Summary: So you've played racing games. You've played first person shooters. You've even played the exploration type role playing game. Well, how about a game that features all these genres, plus so much more. Grand Theft Auto III/Vice City 2-Pak is now ... read more

  • Best Game I've Ever Played

    Sep 21 '03
    Pros: Huge world. Always unpredictable and impossibly violent.
    Cons: Sometimes freezes shortly.

    Summary: I bought this game quite a while ago and have only gotten around to writting the review. I personally love this game and have beaten a few times and still continue to play just for the excitment of recking havoc on the city. I bought this ga ... read more

  • Welcome to Liberty City

    Aug 21 '03
    Pros: Totally interactive, lots of freedom, violent, amoral fun.
    Cons: Sometimes frustrating, some graphics problems, need a good computer.

    Summary: If you haven’t heard of Grand Theft Auto 3 (GTA3 for short), then it is beyond me where you have bee ... read more

  • Grand Theft Auto III - Call the cops, it stole my Attention!

    Aug 19 '03
    Pros: - Great selection of Vehicles to steal. -Awesome Soundtrack, and selectable music.
    Cons: - Small selection of places to go - Little chance for a big "promotion"

    Summary: Now, lets just keep it simple, do you enjoy shoot-them-up, gettin' rich, thuggin', fast action, spee ... read more

  • GTA III for PC

    Jun 17 '03
    Pros: The major theme of the game: "Cars, Guns, Girls"
    Cons: It gets a little boring after playing for a while unless you use cheats.

    Summary: I remember reading that this game was better than many of the FPS games and i couldn't keep myself f ... read more

  • Grand Theft Auto 3

    May 04 '03
    Pros: Very fun. Very addictive.
    Cons: Relatively repetitive, somewhat short. Too little cars.

    Summary: This is a great game, i love it. It has improved so much since GTA2 and GTA that it is almost a new game. The save at location system, which was kind of annoying in GTA2 because it was hard to find is much better now because of the straight a head ... read more

  • Pow! GTA 3 explodes with fun!

    Apr 30 '03
    Pros: Unparalleled freedom, balanced gameplay, and detailed cityscapes.
    Cons: Frustrating elements of gameplay.

    Summary: Grand Theft Auto is a felony crime in the United States, but its also a really freakin' fun game. Millions of copies have been sold, TV commercials grace the airwaves, and Rockstar Games seems to have unleashed a monster with GTA 3--a very successful ... read more

  • A giant leap for the GTA series.

    Jan 27 '03
    Pros: Realism, humor, violence, excitement...come together.
    Cons: too many parents willing to buy this for their preteen kid.

    Summary: When GTA3 was first introduced to the gaming market, I was thrilled but also somewhat disappointed that Rockstar was abandoning my beloved overhead view from GTA2. Granted, you can only go so far with a 2 dimensional game, but that was the wonderful ... read more

  • GTA3, guns, blood, and sex....

    Jan 21 '03
    Pros: Fast action, feels like your really pulling jobs for the mob
    Cons: gonna neeed a fast comp to even enjoy this title

    Summary: aH HA!...im kicking butt and taking names!. GTA3 brings you on a ride into the mob....you start out as a no-body and hopfully work you way up to the big time by pulling random jobs people ask of u. unlike the previous version of ... read more

  • I have a job for you

    Dec 11 '02
    Pros: sex, gore, violence, etc.
    Cons: sex, gore, violence, etc.

    Summary: Let me start by saying that I love this game. Originally, it was fro the PlayStation 2, but it had crossed over to the PC realm by the time my brother brought his computer home for summer vacation. He had to take it back with him because, regrettably, ... read more

  • GTA3 blows away any violent game away

    Nov 14 '02
    Pros: Hundreds of Car skins, Player Skins, and mission mods available online.
    Cons: FPS problems, cant go inside buildings and wreck havoc.

    Summary: Assuming GTA:Vice City has not come out for the PC platform, I would have to say GTA3 is as close as you can get to videogame violence towards realism. After the Washington Sniper inccident, this game really leads many questions how kids can become so ... read more

  • "This is Bad For My Karma, Lazlo."

    Aug 07 '02
    Pros: Lots of replay value, new mouse-look ability, and everything from the PS2 version.
    Cons: A few graphical problems.

    Summary: We have a very simple concept here: run around, be a bad guy, and kill people at your discretion. Why has it taken so long for someone to get it right? The original Grand Theft Auto allowed the same wanton destruction, but this havoc was wreaked ... read more
