    SA made me lol more than any other game for intentional reasons and unintentional ones. It's my favorite. xD

    San Andreas is my favourite but it did have the most mind-numbingly difficult mission in GTA history. RC Red Baron is NOT fun!

    Ugh, any mission where you have to drive like a sane person takes me fifty million tries and is incredibly boring.

    Seems like Yeargdribble already made a decision, but here's my two cents.

    GTA III was not as innovative as it gets credit for. There were many "sandbox" games before that, as evidenced by its own predecessors, and even 3rd person free-camera sanbox games like Mega Man Legends where you can roam a full town and interact with the people walking around and complete missions and sidequests in a number of orders.

    However, what it did do was fully utilize the technology of the time to bring such a world even more to life, and the rest is history. It kind of defined the PS2 era and set the bar for almost the rest of the console cycle.

    All of the PS2 games are very good in my opinion, and believe it or not I actually play them (mostly) for the story. The creators are geniuses at creating these pulp stories that could easily stand among the very movies they are imitating. While the first 3 used black humor throughout (and indeed even in the gameplay), its much more subtle in GTA IV, and the story is actually very serious almost the entire time. This threw some people off a little, but to me it represented the overall evolution it was trying to parallel with video game technology reaching a new level of sophistication.

    I would start with GTA III because it created this type of game, with a wonderful little world not only to explore but to take part in. I love the atmosphere in this game and the cast of voice actors is amazing (one of them died today) Either of the two sequels are just as amazing.

    IV's a good start as well, but the shooting was made more accessible so you might not be able to appreciate the earlier games as much. Still, it's an awesome game and I personally can't wait to play through it again.

    Here's the most in-depth look you can get at the game if you haven't already bought it for PS3. The 360 version has some inherent specifications which theoretically should mean it is the better looking version, but as the article points out, both versions edge each other out in different ways. They also have comparison screen-shots as well.

    And I don't think you need the game to play the DLC either, but in my opinion you'd be better off just getting the game because I, personally, am not going to pay $20 a pop for something like that.

    Oh yeah, wasn't the main character in III in the game? I think your Hispanic girlfriend ran-off with him. I was thinking this is leading up to the events of III.
    Can I ask a question about 4 here?
    Does anyone know if it's possible to date someone else in the game besides that girl who called herself Michelle, who just seemed to have been forgotten in the storyline, and Kate?

    I tried at least 3 times to get another girlfriend by using that website, but whenever I sent a request I was rejected. One said I was too young for her.

    There is a lawyer on the site, I can't remember her username but she's dateable in fact dating her and getting her "relationship power" allows you to remove 3 stars from your wanted level for free instantly (still need to behave afterwards) I think theres another couple, Psy will know for sure but theres like 6 girls you can date IIRC

    (SPOILER)Michelle wasn't really forgotten, Niko just wanted nothing to do with her once he realized she was a fed and had been selling him out.

    Off the top of my head there's 2 storyline girlfriends and 2-3 you can meet on the internet. Just spam every single woman on lovemeet.net and you'll find one you can date. Although I wish you could date men, too. Colonel Cuddles looks like a real catch.
