What's your favorite Grand Theft Auto? For me it's 5 but before 5 ever came out it was Vice City. I don't know, I was stuck between San Andreas and Vice City but I think VC managed to capture the 80's better than SA was able to capture the boyz n tha hood feel of the early 90's. SA had better gameplay but strangely it felt dumbed down.
Vice City > all
True. At least VC kept the rampage missions.Quote:

Picking between VC and SA for second place is really tough though. Vice City has such an awesome theme and the radio talk back is absolutely hilarious, but San Andreas had so many options and customisations, it also had my favourite soundtrack from any of the games.
Umm Vice City, probably? I've only played a few
Yeah I was gonna say, I stopped playing them after SA.Quote:

GTA2.
As soon as the series went 3D, I lost interest.

Saints Row 2
Vice City, I only played the three on PS2 though. Never really got back into it. Online looks like a lot of fun and from what I've heard Ballad of Gay Tony is one of the best games.
Yeah, GTAV was very slick and fantastically realised. The characters were superb too.Quote:

Vice City was a close second though. The soundtrack was amazing.
Guess no one here played the "Stories" games.
Toni Cipriani really loves his mama. Enough to make (literal) lunch meat out of guys she praises more than him.
Vice City Stories meanwhile was San Andreas levels of a more "serious" narrative. Victor Vance was a pretty sympathetic protagonist who got played and used and forced back into a life of crime. The story of him and Louise, a woman and her baby he rescued from an abusive household, is pretty well done.(SPOILER)And heartbreaking considering how it ends. smurf you, Martinez.
It also is a tragic tale about how Vic tries to keep his idiot brother Lance safe and out of harm. We all know how that ends. There was something seriously wring with Lance, like a mental disease or whatever.
Yeah, we recognize the City stories games. But they're more like spin offs or prequels of main series games like GTA 3 or Vice City. Sadly they never made a San Andreas Stories. My guess it would've took place in 1989-1990, and Sweet or Caesar Vialapando would've been the protagonist. But I've got to CLEO sorted out so I can play a bunch of mods on SA. Including a taxi mod, black market mod, robbable stores mod, a farming mod, ahh dude when I get it sorted out GTA SA is gonna rock.
FINALLY!! After a stress induced coma, 2789 murders, 12000 assaults, 94 vehicular manslaughters, 7000 red lights ran, 18 possessions with intent to sell, 56 arsons, and 67 public douchebagery charges. I finally fixed CLEO 4.3 on gta sa. And now I can say GTA SA is the best GTA. I think, unless I can get some cooler mods for GTA vice city.
red dead redemption
no. Save rdr when we decided red dead vs gtaQuote:

GTA 2? Jesus you're out of date on the GTAs. 1999 was 16 years ago. Saints Row 3 is the bomb! But I liked 4 better. Did you ever hear they made a GTA 3? XD:lol:Quote:
