Grand Theft Auto (GTA) 3 for PlayStation 2

Pros: Large, so many things to do...
Cons: a little pop-up, bad gun targeting system

GTA3 is an amazing title to own for the Sony Playstation 2. It gives you so much to do in so many places that you will not be done with this game for a very, very long time. And the coolest thing about the game is you don't even have to do any missions...

Pros: Incredible Soundtrack, Expansive Streets, Several "side missions"
Cons: May lead to a life of crime...

Background
Originally I read about this game in Playboy (see I do read the articles) and thought I was hearing an exaggeration. It described the plot and some features of the game that were so politically incorrect, that I...

Pros: Graphics, Gameplay, Sound, Fun
Cons: Control

Playstation 2 owners certainly have a lot of reasons to be happy this past year. 2001 saw the release of several great titles like Final Fantasy X, Tony Hawk Pro Skater 3 and Metal Gear Solid 2. While these are great games, there is one title in...

Pros: Everything
Cons: When is part 4 coming out?

Gameplay
Gameplay is what makes a videogame legendary, right? This game proves it. You can approach the game in a mission-based mode (nothing wrong with this mode), if the missions bore you, you can then do side jobs. There are two side jobs...

Pros: Makes you feel dirty.
Cons: Makes you feel dirty.

I have no idea why this game is one of the most enteraining software titles I have ever played. I've never had violent tendancies, at least I don't think. I'm a pretty good driver, and I have a squeaky clean police record. What the heck drives me to...

Pros: Much more satisfying than Metal Gear Solid 2.
Cons: Not as much open-ended gameplay as it claimed to have. Bad gun controls.

When this game was about to be released, it was preceded by tons of previews that claimed you could do "whatever you want". This is hardly true. You can NOT do whatever you want. You still have to do missions to go further in the game. You can NOT choose...

Pros: Furiously addictive gameplay.
Cons: Questionable game content.

Let me start by saying two things:
(a) GTA3 is the most morally reprehensible game since the original Carmageddon.
(b) It's one of the most infuriatingly addictive games I've owned.

You've probably read the bad press on GTA3. Yes,...

Pros: Huge world to explore,awesome graphics,lots of ways to destroy everything,
Cons: i can't think of any...maybe occasional lagging

Imagine Daggerfall or Privateer, but taking place in a city where you play a mobster. That's this game.

GTA3 places you in a fully 3D rendered city with many, many areas, some of which don't become available until you progress somewhat in the...

Pros: Great Fun; Loads Of Missions; Cool Weapons
Cons: You Have To Kind Of Unlock Parts Of The City

I'd loved the first 2 Grand Theft Auto games and I'd read the review to number 3. I was loving the idea of the Grand Theft Auto games in 3D. And then I played it. And I loved it even more.

Lots of missions - lots of weapons, well, quite a few...

Pros: So much to do...so MUCH time, sound
Cons: Makes you want to take a shower when you're done playing it

When a buddy of mine first told me about GTA3, I knew there was no way I was going to play it. The game sounded horrendous...then he let me borrow it. The next day I put down my $50 on the counter in shame. If this isn't heroin for video gamers, I don't...

Pros: Freedom, HUGE HUGE HUGE CITY. Did I Mention the city is HUGE?
Cons: Some difficult missions, targeting system is frustrating.

“What’s the big deal? This game isn’t all that.” You may think that after playing the game for a few hours, a bit deflated after reading through all the accolades GTA3 has managed to garner yet rethinking about your recently departed 50 duckets. The...

Pros: stunningly realistic graphics, lots of missions make for long game
Cons: missions can be too hard and often get repetitive

Growing up, I always used to like breaking the rules in the video games I played, such as getting Mario to jump over the flag at the end of a level in the original Super Mario Brothers with the Game Genie and therefore getting him to run forever....

Pros: Stealing cars, Drugs, Hookers what more is there
Cons: Trying to get that sixth star

Lets see where should I start well first of all let me just start out by saying that I had some doubt about this game when I first heard about it from gamepro magazine I figured it would be another cheap 2d game that looked like it took about 2 weeks to...

Pros: Big cities, sense of freedom, many guns, bringing out inner criminal!
Cons: None.

WOW. A lot of thought went into this game. Detail after detail. A truly immersive experience. PS2 has been hitting us pretty hard with some AAA titles and this is no exception. I am unable to find any flaws with this game. Only people who do not like...

Pros: go anywhere do anything, its really fun
Cons: graphics go from good to crap, a few control problems

If you're into games, you'll know what Grand Theft Auto 3 is all about. But this time it's in 3D and the anticipation has paid off in full. The original 2D game caused tabloids to go crazy because you could drive about, run people over, kill cops, steal...
