Well I've been playing it for a bit so far. The graphics are really blurry, but lighting is nice.

I love riding the bikes. So much fun.

I still have a problem with the music. For me that was one of the most important parts of GTA3. The music on the stations. There was nothing better than going for a cruise listening to those catchy songs. Unfortunately the music this time around is too retro for me and I can't get into most of the songs except Michael Jackson.

It's difficult (which is the way I like it). So far I preferred the good old GTA3 because it wasn't so retro, but so far this game is fun. I wanna buy property and stuff, see how that all works.

I'll give you more of my impressions as I progress through the game.

go to display in the options menu and turn of trails to get rid of blurriness....most people prefer t that way. and trust me u will get used to the music.

but still. for me there was just something diff about gta3, it think it was the setting but o well

dont worry once u buy property u'lll like it alot more, then after buying alot u wont really care lol

I hated the trails SOOOO MUCH. Thank God I finally realized how to shut them off.

From what I've heard, the music is great!! Lot's of rock classics!

Mr. Mister - Broken Wings
Foreigner - ??
Ehm more of those songs that you fill your CDs with!

the music is great in the game IMO, and I never even listened to music in the 80's except for some Christmas songs, the Alphabet song, and some Sesame Street songs I guess...

oh, and you HAVE to turn off 'trails'...the graphics are much cleaner and crispier when trails is turned off.

Just wait until you get to missions like 'Death Row'. After that, the game really starts to take off

GTA3 and GTA VC were about the same amount of fun

Dragon-Fly · 12-17-2002, 07:05 PM

Well, i've played GTA3. It's pretty good, and fun. But i can't wait to try GTA;VC. I hope it's good. But i think GTA3 is fun, overal.

GTA3 and Vice City are equal in fun, but Vice City by FAR is the better game.

I don't think "BY FAR" so far

.........

I think it's a nice addition, but nothing spectacular compared to the original.

bobcat · 12-18-2002, 06:19 AM

Oh and I turned the trailers off. Muuuuuuch better

Destro · 12-18-2002, 04:09 PM

Man, it's about time someone makes a thread for this game!

Anyway, I had some fun with Vice City. It plays like more of a GTA3 expansion pack than anything else, but I guess there's absolutely nothing wrong with that. The tons of tiny - and major - improvements made over the last Grand Theft Auto really make this one worth playing. Still, I think that the New York setting is a little better than the Miami one.

Dyne · 12-18-2002, 04:24 PM

Yeah, but wasn't GTA2 really an expansion pack of GTA1?

Maybe they'll cook up something completely new for GTA5 within that exculsivity to Sony...

What I'm a bit disappointed in is the chat stations... nothing can compete with Laslow and Fernando. Well, Fernando is bigger in this game (

) but Chatterbox was absolutely hilarious last time..

Although the islands aren't as big as GTA3's, they are divided among 13 islands. It all fits in pretty well.

Who cares when you got the katana and chainsaw to mess around with
