The Best Game... EVER!!! By Hannible "Hot Ass" Alitory

I think its safe to say that GTA3 is the official game of R.A.O.S. we get to live our fantasies of skrewing hookers in the backseat then killing them afterwords in a not so vain attempt to get your cash back. GTA3 is everything we could have ever hoped for and more, and with "Vice City" Coming out in the near future, we're all saving a considerable amount of money in order to aquire a copy of this prestigous game. Here's my personal take on GTA3"

First I'll tell you the few things I didn't like about the game, don't worry this wont take long.
To start, the guns are a bit awkward to use. The aim on each and every weapon is flawed in one way or another, some worse then others.
quick rundown of every gun and its flaw
Baseball bat - No need to aim, but when you're going up against 20 Diablo's a bat isn't what you need - 5

9mm - You press R1 and he aims for the head, you shot, and the bastard doesn't go down, further back he aims for the chest or back not very good for gang fights - 6

Uzi - Drive bys, nuff said - 10

there are two types of machine guns, but are only good for massive gang fights and taking out hookers now that I think about it, anyway the flaw with one of them is you can't aim at all that one gets a 6 the other you can aim with but the aiming process is as slow as the sniper rifle - 8

Grenades - Complete waste of time, if you get a free pack of grenades for a mission, don't bother using them, you'll die before you're out. - 0

Molitovf cocktails - This is more like it, theres a close range option, which isn't good because they blow up in huge flames that don't like going out when you get hit by one - 7

Sniper Rifle - Great for long range, and the blood gushing effect never gets old but thats about all its good for - 9

Flame thrower - Burning victims run into you or you run on them and go up in flames, pretty gay - 6

Finally the Rocket launcher or Grenade launcher whatever the hell this thing is... I see nothing wrong with that one - 10

Another thing that didn't sit to well with me were the cops, you could plow right into another car and drive off, the cops wont do shit however, run over an innocent pedestrian, or hit a cop in any way, thats a felony, understandable, however The stingy bastards refuse to let it go, most times if you're speeding away, they'll drop the charges cause they're lazy, however if you're not fast enough they'll plow into you till you either blow up or die. Every once in a while they'll yank you out of your car and you're busted, but most times they want you to die.

GRAPHICS - Rockstar did an excellent job putting an entire city on to one disc, without sacrificing too much of the quality of the graphics. I better make this quick I want to get back and finish playing it. Anyway some of the people aren't animated very well but it doesn't matter, when you're plowing them down in a heat of anger from fucking up on the last mission.

LIFESPAN - This game will take a considerible chunk of time out of your life, but beleive me it wont be wasted.

CONTROL
- Controlling the little animated greaser who acts as you can be somewhat confusing at times, but not difficult. Depending on what car you are in, you're controll will be solid as a rock, or loose as your girlfriends buttcheecks.

EXTRAS - Find 100 Hidden packages, do side missions for some worthless mexicans, earn some cash in a taxi, do vigilante missions in a police car, put out fires with a fire truck etc etc etc

VIOLENCE - After maliciously beating a hooker because she was being stubborn about where to get it on, I decided if a game were any more violent then this, I'd be banned in Australia

MUSIC - Radio stations for whatever people want to listen to, Rise FM is my station of choice.

MUST HAVE FACTOR - This is the single greatest single player game for any system, buy it or do what I did and at least borrow it from a friend who trusts you, beleive me you won't regret it.

ADDICTION - If you are not addicted to this game after hours of playing it, you are either a bitter feminist* or a feminist* and you do not like the treatment of hookers, or the lack of a selectable charactor, either male or female.

SOUND - Good

FUN - I'm getting off line to play it some more

*We have nothing against feminists, you girls just need to relax, a good ol'fashioned dose of weenie would do you girls a world of good. Sean, Steve and I are willing and ready.**
