Ah, Grand Theft Auto... Driving through the city, shooting innocent pedestrian as I drive by, running over hookers and stealing their money, speeding over a bridge with the cops on your tail. It doesn't get much better then this. There are many people for you to kill, cars to steal, and missions to be completed. But this one is not for people who are stupid or young enough to think you can do all of these things in real life, because you can't. But, it's good for a laugh and to help you relax after a long day.
The game starts off with a scene of three people robbing a bank. As they're about to get away, the girl shoots you and you're arrested. Then, you escape when the convoy that was taking you to prison is attacked by a gang that wants to break out one of their members. They then bomb the bridge and you're free! Then, your friend helps you get some work with the Mafia, and the rest is history.
Now don't worry about the reviews that say their computer lags. They are old reviews, but any computer from 2004 and later should run this game without a single flaw. I have a quad-core Phenom II and an HD 3650, and theres no lag whatsoever. With a modern system, you'll run this game better than flawlessly. You can even record with FRAPS and not have any lag at all. I run in 1280 x 1024 x 32 with no problem.
There are a few bugs but they're barely noticeable and pretty rare.
This game is great. It is worth every penny, and you could probably get it for a penny. This game's practically being given away! I got my copy for $0.25! What a deal! You can get it at stores that sell used games for a dollar or two. It's an amazing game and dirt cheap, too! Buy it NOW!!!
I got G.T.A. III in 2003 after I had Vice City on the Playstation 2. I was always a little backwards on collecting the Grand Theft Auto series. Anyway I sold my PS2 in 2008 and beat G.T.A. I.V. It was fun but to realistic. I ordered G.T.A. III on the P.C. just to try it out. I love it. I think it's even better on the P.C. then it was on the PS2. I gave Claude a George Bush skin and zoomed into the "Zombie Elvis found" newspaper on the sidewalk. Yes Liberty City is more realistic in the G.T.A. I.V. world but this is classic! Now I only play this and the Lost and Damned in the episodes disk for my XBOX 360. I got sick of Niko. Sorry, and Luis Lopez is okay but I don't care for the club thing that much. Claude and Johnny Klebbitz are my favorite characters now.
Only the download disc worked, the play disc was damaged or something so I had to buy it separately from another site. When I finally got it I realized the game sucks so I never played it again. I still have it in case I change my mind.
really enjoy playing this game for an old PS2 Classic SELLER did NOT INCLUDE MAP so there for i give the SELLER a 0 star. nevermind what the other ppl say on Amazon for playing this on win 10 this WILL PLAY on win 10 you have to get a patch to UPDATE it to V1.1or it will not open.
I really love GTA for PS and PC, but this PC verison creates moving ghost images when you are in a dark alley. Tried reloading it 2 other times but still no help. Just stay out of the dark and I will not see these images. Images consist of like stuff on the walls (vents, ladders, fans) and when you look around the images follow...weird. Quality is not the best compaired to what screen shots i have seen b4 purchasing, and freezes up from time to time w/o any other programs running in the background. My system requirements exceed there standards, P4 w/ duel video cards, 8gigs of ram..etc.
Bought this from Bazaar Canada and was incredibly happy at the product I received. Game works good even on windows 10 (takes some tinkering and mods) but I like it as a collectable piece. Only nitpick is the gash on the case but that can easily be amended with a new case. Discs are also in near perfect condition with manual/map included.
Game is truly asowome I promise Don't think that that game is boo it is good game it contains 2disc and 1 map and a sheet about the city u must buy it.
