lol, that is totally me. I had such an awesome time with GTA 3 (played about 30 hours on my PC) and never once completed a mission, just casued as much chaos as possible before I died :)

Haha, me too. I loved causing chaos. The only way any missions got completed was because my friend always came over and beat them.


Edit: How do you hold up a store? I haven't figured this one out yet.

To rob a store: Pull out your gun, walk into a store, and use the right shoulder button to aim at the clerk. Point it at him for a few seconds and he'll toss you the cash. But if you don't take him out, he'll hit the alarm as soon as you put the gun down. Sure, shooting him will piss off the cops, but at least they'll be pissed at you for killing the guy and not just for robbing the place.


Thanks :) Have to give that one a try :D

Making runs for the Pay n Spray can be the biggest thrill in the game. One mission I didn't think I would make it, but a police car tagged me and luckily spun me into the opening of the Pay n Spray. I just had to pull forward to safety.

I agree with you. GTA3, for the most part, is stupid. The missions I find are just repetitive and annoying.

Plot line? Missions? All I did was wander around slapping chicks and getting shot by police.

There's more to the game? Now I feel like an idiot.

Yea... running around and punching random people is one of the funniest things ever... I mean.. it's just so wrong that it's hilarious.

Usually when I play, I try to only kill bad people. I feel like Arnold Scwartzneggar in one of his "kill sub 60 people" movies.


Heh... it's fun to jump a huge truck over a building too... Even the fire truck works.

Great game.. - especially cause' you can go through the whole game and only harm shady people.

regardless of whether there is a plot line and missions or not, the game still sucks. You can experience everything it has to offer within the first 30 minutes of gameplay. WAAY over-rated

No, you can't. You can't fly the helicopter within the 30 minutes, you can't steal a tank within the first 30 minutes. You can't do a lot of things, but of course I haven't gotten that far in the game to see them all.

This game is great.
