Grand Theft Auto (GTA) General Discussion Thread

I agree, but GTA V rewards might cater to the fact that we want better things for all are hard work

On topic:

At the time, the rewards were in my opinion great and for doing the fire missions in GTA 3. You got that flame thrower

But the best rewards in the GTA 3 era was the Taxi missions, because the money you made was crazy money and the police missions were the same

[Blacksite]

Yeah, but the problem with earning money in GTA games is that you had little to spend it on. Especially in GTA III where it was much easier to earn money by simply blowing up vehicles.

[claud3]

true true, vice city was business's and san andreas was house's... GTA 3 i have to admit sucked in relation to spending money on just PAINT and SPRAY and AMMO

But i see hat this might change this new era... It's a shame it's took three ERA's to figure this out

[Cybertox]

These pictures describe why I love Vice City so much.

















All of those pictures were done by me. The game is GTA Vice City Anniversary Edition.

[claud3]

they scream bright and colored world and i love Vice city... But i like the dark side of the gta world

gritty and nasty underbelly of the series

[AaronSOLDIER]

I like the Miami vibe the most but yeah New York looked amazing when it first released.

[claud3]

V.C.S was actually a dark gritty game like GTA 3, it had all the appeal there and the underbelly of gangster rule

I would say that they have the same vide, V.C.S and GTA 3

[Blacksite]

I agree with claud3. Something about the dark and gritty, fall setting of Liberty City in GTA III really impressed me, as well as the attention to detail that was missing from Vice City and San Andreas (e.g. steam rising out of the ground and the sound of the subway train underneath).

[AaronSOLDIER]

I thought VC on android/ipad was supposed to look better than the PS2 version?

It had that old new york feel of the 90'S about it and made it feel real in a way... I also loved the different cultures in liberty city, they made it feel like i was in a city that actually did not care

The amount of irish, chinese, japanese etc... Was so cool

Bumping into someone was always an experience and the sayings they came off with were Laugh out loud madness

[LfCpS3]

are these gta games good on the vita?

Planning on picking them up.

[claud3]

GTA V.C.S and GTA L.C.S. and Chinatown wars are the only three portables on the psp or vita if you can play them and yes they are excellent

They do have issue's like all games do, some sound drop and glitches small ones

But overall are exellcent to play

L.C.S Vita



V.C.S on vita



Chinatown wars on vita

[Blacksite]

Honestly, I would pick up a GTA game on the Vita, even if it was developed on the Renderware engine but in HD. I hear that both Stories titles look awful.

[LfCpS3]

I understand the graphics wont be good, but i dont really care for them, as long as it plays smoothly i would be ok.

[claud3]

The graphics are the same for the port to the PS2.

Man I would say, just try them out and see how they feel and how your experience was

[AaronSOLDIER]

The graphics were great back in 2005 for a handheld no idea why someone would think they look awful, that's like saying an NES game looks crap compared to God of War 3... no shit lol

[claud3]

I agree, but I guess rockstar were just extremely lazy on these two games for the port to ps2

[AaronSOLDIER]

Yeah they look bad on PS2 since they were just straight ports, but PSP? Amazing graphics.

[claud3]

Yep and yet besides that being a real lazy grape with the game... It was awsome game none the less

[Blacksite]

Also adding this to the OP. Love Fist's discography:



Love Fist EP
“Dangerous Bastard”
“Fist Fury”
“Down Down Down”
“Fist Till Morning”

[claud3]

seen that on the main rockstar site, they were awsome in vice city and very brtish indeed... Loved the mission to defuse the bomb in their car

Yeah i remember that. You had to speed above like 30 kmh or otherwise the car would detonate. Those guys were arguing and discussing in their unique english on how to disarm the bomb, lol.

[claud3]

stay above 50mph and you drop below that and you would get a count down.. To me it's a direct reference to the film SPEED

[Cybertox]

I just realized that there are no speed measurements in GTA.

[claud3]

yep never as been, many modders have added them and their were many begging R* to drop one into GTA IV, which never happened and many are the same that wants one dropped into GTA V... Me i do not care if one is in or not

Not going to change anything about the game, it's just a wee thing
