    Newcomers to Grand Theft Auto III would giggle at the primitive graphics, spoiled by the advancements of the past 15 years. For seasoned gamers however, Grand Theft Auto III was the absolute tits back in the day and I really enjoyed playing it again. Sure, I paid out my butt for it but that was my choice, no one forced me to do it. Now, if you don’t mind, I’ve got a platinum trophy to nail.

    I mean yes, it's a classic, but couldn'tyou at least have put in updated controls. It's really hard to play and not really enjoyable anymore.

    It's the classic game but with the same **** controls. You'd think they'd at least put a "Setup 4" option in controls where all controls areIt's the classic game but with the same **** controls. You'd think they'd at least put a "Setup 4" option in controls where all controls are modernised.

    It honestly feels like there was 0 effort put into porting this to the PS4.

    A dated but abite romp back to where it all started. Originally played through this game on PS2, well after playing through Vice City and SanA dated but abite romp back to where it all started. Originally played through this game on PS2, well after playing through Vice City and San Andreas. The HDing is obvious, although clearly not a remake or a remaster. Its just been tidied up and polished a bit.
    The controls are, well, 2001 controls, its very, very clunky and the targeting system (or lack thereof) is abhorrent; you're better off spraying and praying.
    The physics are horrendous and the lack of any checkpoint system can get pretty frustrating. The abundance of timed missions is pretty unoriginal too.
    GTA 3 is the quintessential "Errand Boy" game, the narrative drives things along, however everything is a go here do this request mission, however everything works well enough.
    I guess to sum it up and to be honest, this game is old, very old and the tech is just as ancient but you have to take it for what it is, the most ground breaking game of the 00s, possibly of all time
