Grand Theft Auto3 for PC

Downunda · 05-30-2002, 02:12 AM

Yep, it's hit the shelves and if they've somehow improved the already excellent PS2 version then this is a must buy for anyone that has ever dreamed of being the criminal in one of those slick 80's car chases.

That's right, no goody two shoes need apply, we need some hard nosed wannabe crims that don't mind running granny off the road if it means a clean getaway

As you can see I quite enjoy this game, now if only it had multiplayer capabilities...

how does this game play compared to say morrowind, or arcanum, or anachronox etc etc?

Haven't played any of those sorry [img]tongue.gif[/img] I'm not much of a fantasy RPG type of guy [img]smile.gif[/img]

It's a third person view with the same sorta controls as a FPS.
The game starts with you getting busted for a bank robbery because you were setup by your "partners". You are in a police paddy wagon on the way to court when a gang busts out another guy that is being transported with you, needless to say you now need to steal a car and find a place to lay low and earn some cash... the story only gets better from there.

I spose it's sorta an RPG but it's the closest game I've seen to one of those action movies, good stuff! I hope they bring out a demo for it [img]smile.gif[/img]

Takes a freak to meet freaks [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Honestly though I dabbled in the BG saga for a while, dunno why it grabbed me (I usually get bored of playing computer games after about half an hour so was surprised when six hours went by and I was saying, just ten more minutes...

) Haven't played for ages though.

As far as IW is concerned, I was stuck on something so posted in the forum (for the first time ever - wasn't into the WWW too much either

) And got sucked into GD, the rest as they say is history [img]smile.gif[/img]
