the is prefect,it runs and look brand spanken new

When "Grand Theft Auto 3" first debuted in October 2001, almost every American (including the world) were shaken up from the aftermath of 9/11. This game wasn't an instant hit; it slowly became a blockbuster after a huge word of mouth from gamers and especially from the news who argued that "GTA 3" was the most violent game ever. What they didn't know was that since they complained about it, more people listened to the hype and it became a video game icon.

It revolutionized the industry, it caused backlash from parents, made kids play it despite censors, and simply made video games fun again. I don't know how many hours I played this game, but it was alot!

Everybody knows that you play a criminal, who roams around Liberty City, steals cars, works for various gangs, beat and kill pedestrians, do many missions and make the police very mad! It just sounds great, doesn't it? There is also many weapons and cars to choose from. Liberty City is amazing to look at; every detail in the game is almost realistic. And the audio and music soundtrack is perfect.

Although "GTA: Vice City" was a better game overall, there's still a reason to play this "GTA 3". It was a radical new departure in video gaming, and no other game will make that such an impact ever again.

This game is ground breaking. I will give you that. It is however very repetitive after awhile. You can only kill so many innocent people before it gets quite boring.

I am not sure why people rave about the graphics. They looked dated when this game came out, and look even worse now. The PC version is clearly better in this department.

The game save feature isn't working although I have two memory cards installed. The riding around is making me car sick.

This might be more fun for kids who don't yet have a license for the sense of cruising around that it DOES provide. But, for this 50 year old, it is pretty close to torture to play this game. I can appreciate the programming, but the game play isn't for me. Driving around doesn't cut it.

I used to play this game on my PS2 all the time. Sumtimes my friends would come over and watch me play, and even come over and play the game themselves!

This is the classic Sony Playstation 2 video game. No other game is as much fun to pick up and play. Although I took some time off, I finally finished all the missions.

In this game, you play an ex-con who acts as a criminal free agent around the three-part town called Liberty City. As you work for rival crime bosses and gang leaders, you earn money by completing each mission.

The entertainment of the game is its sheer amount of freedom. If you are not ready to try to complete each mission, you are free to roam around the city at will, stealing cars, collecting hidden packages, even making money as a cab driver, firefighter, or "vigilante cop."

Although the graphics could be a little better and I hate the aiming system for some of the weapons, the game is ultimate fun. There is a reason that this game is so popular, despite its main criticism.

GTA3 has been derided continuously for its mature rating and questionable moral code. In the video game, your character increases his health by hiring prostitutes, and can get away with killing cops and innocent civilians. Because of this, GTA3 is NOT for kids to play. I'm always surprised to find too many young kids playing this game.

All that being said, GTA3 is not as horrible as it may sound. All of the characters you are required to kill are criminals (there is a one dirty cop or two) and lawless thugs. Crimes against innocent civilians could get you arrested. I don't think the game gives any impression that crime pays.

I strongly recommend GTA3 (as well as GTA: Vice City). It's a fun game, and has many side-missions and games which can keep you entertained for a LONG time.

This game was revolutionary and broke ground that no video game had ever even tried. The missions are fun and challenging. There is unprecedented freedom to do whatever you want. Even the town is cool enough to want to explore. You get an ora, an ambiance that did not exist in video games before. One of the Greatest video games of all time by far.

This game was really spectactular. -I've have succesfully
completed all the mission's.. -It took me a decade.. -Ever
since this game came out. -I've first spotted it when a

the city. -I've care about the dang pesky mission's..?
becuase two me; -driving around.. -Shooting at people
is kind of boring.. -Don't you think..! -Give the mission's
credit for making your joinment a breeze..

Rockstar games made this for you two play the missions
and then enjoy killing a lot of people and throwing
grenades or bombs; -blowing up the city.. -Something
like that.. -But the only thing that really suck's
about the game.. -Rockstar can't let you even blow up

and; -Goodfella's.. -Fanatic's..! -But I love it

Which was the easiet dang part of the game..? -The
game begins when your girl shoots you in the gutter
for dead.. -Then hull off two prison..! -Then an
explosion leaves several dead.. -Which leads two
believe the cartel was behind this lates new
incident.. -Even the newsreporter makes a lot of
sense.. -Then it's off two a guy name.. -Luigi.

You go downtown two get change..! -Then you are on
your way with some black guy.. -Ho will give you your
boss.. -A Mafia gangster..! -Ho works at his pub in
Chinatown.. -So he give's you these mission's..! -Such
as taking his girl for a ride and bring's her back

up those whose's where so easy..?

I finally have the code's two not let the time two
interfere with my gaming. -The timming seem so dang
annoying.. -This game came out in the late 90's..!

gotta chance two play; -Grand Theft Auto 1, -or; -II..

Sorry if I didin't.. -But I still play this; -over and

over for my downtime..!

Enjoy..!!

You may hear people making a big deal about the violence and language in this game. It is true that this game shouldnt be in the hands of a 12 year old. I think that the rating system is more like guidlines. If your a parent who lets your teenager watch some R and even some of the PG-13 rated movies they are getting a lot worse than this game has in it. This game is also not Ultraviolent, If you want and ultriviolent game go play Rockstar's Manhunt. There are a lot more games out there that are worse than GTA III as far as violence goes. In my opinion this is a great game, but if you are easily offended by some foul language and some violence this is not the game for you.
