they had 1and2 wich were overhead games I never got into those. then came 3,vice city and sanandreas wich were all good but vice city and sanandreas were better than 3. Then they had psp gta games liberty citystories and a vice city one that were pretty good and actually liberty city stories was the first gta with multyplayer.

Well, there were the 2 old school ones, then there were 3 "real" console versions and a couple of spinoffs for the PSP and such (which were eventually ported back to consoles).

I think E was asking if he was talking about the old-school top-down GTAs or the 3rd person console versions.
There were 3 top downers. GTA- and then the spinoff expansion GTA London, and then GTA 2.

i guess i am just not urban enuff to enjout the last 2 gta's
San Andreas was an epic game for many reasons weather you could relate to the storyline or not. It added rpg elements more like the muscle and fat that would be added to the charicter depending on if he worked out or ate alot of food. It had the biggest variety of cars to choose from and the largest map wich some people found daunting but I started to enjoy the large map size the more I got into the game. And then it added the gameplay element of taking over territory and keeping it by fighting off gangs of enemies. I would recommend you check it out but now IV is coming out so make way for the new one.

You know, and interesting spinoff that this series created was Bully. I was kinda meh on the concept, and then Jay loaned me the game. Took me about an hour to get out of all the BS into missions, but that game was freakin awesome. I'm considering picking it up for my Xbox, so I can play moar.

Real "pirates" buy stuff that is actually worth buying. Both the PAL and NTSC/US versions have been leaked. I still cant decide if I should get it for ps3 or xbox.....

The PS3 version is supposedly superior. 360 version has framerate slowdowns and playabilty issues.
Interesting. This would be the first game on both platforms where PS3 actually gets the nod. Most reviewers prefer Xbox on the previous multi-platform games. I can say that AJ's Call of Duty 4 looked better on his lower end TV in his game room than my PS3 version on a higher end Panasonic.

But, as time goes on and programmers learn how to utilize the power of the PS3, it is "supposed" to pass up Xbox for graphics and rendering.

The ps3 has much more computing power it is just harder to use it all because it is divided between 7 sub cores. If you are familiar with "folding at home" these people who fold can use the ps3 and it is a monster at folding I believe better than even the high end PCs with quad cores.

Yeah, I am familiar with it and think its a pretty cool concept. Not too mention its actually being used for a good cause. And I agree that the PS3 has more computing power, thats been proven. But, the majority of the games on the market right now have not taken full advantage of that power. Hence the reason that most game reviewers said the graphics on Xbox were superior to the PS3.

Wondering if South Park has made a GTA specific parody yet?
