Featured reviews
To put it simply, Grand Theft Auto 3 is one of the very best video games, or any form of entertainment for that matter, ever made.
You've probably heard about how graphically violent this game is, and there's certainly no denying it. People (criminals, gang members, cops, pedestrians, etc.) can be murdered in a variety of entertaining ways, but GTA3 isn't about mindless mayhem. The game is actually story driven, and that, combined with awesome gameplay (driving being a main factor of course) is what really puts it over the top. It's quite an experience as you rise through the ranks from petty Jack-of-all-trades thug-for-hire to a millionaire. Chock full of tons of fun missions, from carjacking to assassinations to body disposal and anything else your employer needs you to do.
Enough of my pretentious praise though. If you haven't played Grand Theft Auto 3 yet, what are you waiting for?!

Superior big game with real good graphics. The game has cons but this was one of the biggest games of its time. And its story is also real good mafia story. It may deserve 10 points but I thought 9 is better for this game. I'm but it has real gloomy air. It is good someways but with dark weather and blur effect it becomes a terrible looking visual.
Twenty years ago today, Grand Theft Auto 3 came out for the PlayStation 2 and I really hope that this game gets remastered for the PlayStation 4 and maybe the PlayStation 5 today or soon.
Oh my god, so much nostalgia and lot of memories on this game. I remember the first game i ever played on my pc is this game. My first impression is how very amazing this game and looks so real. Until now i still loved this game and i never forget about the memories i had with this game.
This is one of the most entertaining and controversial, yet wonderful games out there. Though it received heat from parents everywhere and other countries tried to ban it, it is without a doubt one of the best, and one of a kind out there(Do they think younger ones would play this? This is for older ones). Well it may not be for everyone, due to the violent content, grammar, and sex, but hey it is a satire of everyday life, but mostly depicting a grimy, rough city, supposedly this is supposed to be New York, where you control a nameless(we shall learn his name in GTA:SA!) and speechless gangster who's been wronged by the gang he worked for, now he goes freelance in the Pulp Fiction-esquire environment of Liberty City, where you work for different gang factions, just to do their dirty work. But that's not it, you can also walk around steel a car, and do whatever you will, it's non-linear! And because it is, you don't have to do some of the missions, though most of them are part of the story. This is one of the best and it is the first game of it's kind I played. If you like this play also Mafia(more like a 1930's GTA to me), GTA Vice City, and GTA San Andreas, thank you Rockstar, it's good, see.

- TriviaThe main character of this game, Claude, does not say a single word throughout the entire game, though you can hear him grunting when he falls after jumping and groaning if he ends up drowning in the river. Rockstar Games later admitted that the decision of a non-speaking character was made so that the player could identify more with him.
- GoofsIn the mission "Under Surveillance", Asuka's dialogue doesn't match the subtitles in every other version except PS2. The script was changed to the FBI and the subtitles don't reflect this. In the mobile version, the Mafia subtitles were changed to the FBI, but the other lines still don't match.
- Quotes
Pedestrian: Yep, I've been drinkin' again.
- Crazy creditsAfter the screen fades to black, Maria bickers over breaking her nail. A gunshot is heard and we are left with the impression that "Silent Guy" has shot her.
- Alternate versionsThe iOS and Android versions have enhanced models and textures from the Xbox version and a map.
