    5 Stars One of the greatest games PS2 games out there!!! 19/08/2004
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Open gameplay/Original missions/Side missions/Fun is the emphasis of the gameplay here

    Disadvantages Disadvantages To complete fully is very difficult indeed.

    Introduction: Grand Theft Auto 3 (GTA3) was released in October 2001originally in North America and Europe. This was genuinely a game which people bought a PlayStation 2 just to experience. It really is that impressive and still to this day is an absolute must have if you enjoy computer games. The review will take account of the PAL version of this game. Why is this game still great? It has stood the test of time as all classic games do. Others have tried to compete and just not been near it. For instance Driver 3 failed big time (annoying gameplay and glitches) as did The Getaway (flawed ... more

    4 Stars Grand Theft Auto 3 26/03/2012
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Lots to do, entertaining, creative

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Poor graphics that are to be expected of a game of this calibre at this time

    Grand Theft Auto 3, or III as it is actually shown on the cover of the game, is a game made for Playstation 2 in 2001. It is an open world adventure game which basically means that you as the player have the control to navigate a map and enter into 'missions' or activities whenever you choose. With somewhat dodgy graphics at time, an inability to swim, jump fluidly or step foot in water without drowning, whats not to love! Of course I am being overly cynical as funnily enough, GTA 3 (as it is quite sensibly abbreviated to) was and remains one of my favourite Playstation games, one that I still ... more

    4 Stars "Get out the way! Woops..." 27/11/2004
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Almost infinite freedom in the aptly name Liberty city

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Rated 18 and may be offensive to "sensitive" players

    Not the latest one, but easily as controversial as all the titles, a picture of violence and disaster is often thought of when referring to this game, maybe thats why we all like it so much. It has continuously been a symbol of enragement everywhere, especially in public conversation, but once its in the comfort of their own homes, i bet the critics play this game to get away from the reality of life too. Well grab hold of your kalishnikov's, uzi's and other assortments of sharp or blunt objects because the first titles have got nothing on this 3D installment to the series, although it does ... more

    5 Stars Welcome To Liberty City My Friends 10/05/2002
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages None

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Way Too Addictive!

    You wouldn't think that this game has an impact on females, boy; I wish I hadn't set eyes on this game! I first got to know about this game via my friend who lives across the road, Steven. Steven and me have been friends forever and I'm always walking in and out of his house and we hang out together and one night I couldn't sleep for some reason and I decided to sleep over at Steven's and as soon as he went to bed I was straight on the PS2 playing this game (I think that’s the reason I wanted to stay over there that night!). Since then I have been very hooked and my Dad recently brought a PS2 ... more
