As a kid I liked GTA2, modded the game to make the taxi super fast and strong lol
I messed around a lot in GTA3 with cheats, causing chaos in the tank
Vice City I actually played for real and beat it, my favorite in the series, but I stopped after that. I probably would’ve enjoyed San Andreas because it’s similar. GTA4 and 5 just seemed like a different tone and style that I was never very interested in. Also they took too long to bring to PC lol.
I miss the kill frenzies. GTA4 was an absolute nadir of the series feeling like a job rather than fun - I get that they wanted you to to get drunk with Roman to experience the drunk controls and have to stop at the toll-booth like a commuter, but both things quickly become tedious.
most of my hours are in 2. there was something very compelling about having a toy city with clearly demarcated areas to move around in. complete with shittons of easter eggs for pulling off weird stunts like ramping off of a subway station stairway and onto a roof.
the physics of the top-down GTAs just can’t be replicated in 3D, like how the tank just rolls over every vehicle in its path.
I’ve only played the first installment of the series and I admit it always felt too fast and hectic for me. Somehow, I always viewed it as a heist game and not as car jacking game.
Adding swimming into san andreas was a bit deal to me.
I’ve played them all on release since GTA3 and of course I loved 3/vice city, but the addition of stats and being able to get jacked meant I was able to basically live in the game.
You haven’t truly tasted victory in your gaming life until you sink Rodan the first time. Downing a big bandit in XCOM comes close, but you won’t get it until you play it.
