Because, despite the fact that it's one of the best games I've ever played, there are holes to be picked if you're the picky sort. Most of the blemishes are nothing more than gameplay mechanics like the time I had every police car in the city after me but lost the lot by driving into a garage despite the fact that one of them followed me in but when, on the odd occasion, your attention wanders, you realise that whispers there's not actually a great deal of complexity to the game.
The missions that lead you through the story and open up the new areas, while hugely enjoyable, are relatively simple affairs: 'Take this car here', 'shoot that person in the head', 'blow that person's car up', that sort of thing. It generally involves getting from A to B in a set amount of time, and occasionally getting out of your car to shoot someone in the head. What they do provide though is a refreshing change from the sort of shit we've been wading through for the past couple of years that masquerades under the 'I'm not really crap, I'm just.
Games you can play for hours on without cracking a smile, games that end up with smashing the keyboard in frustration as you're quick saving for the 10th time in a minute.
In GTA III, you can only save after you've completed each mission, and it doesn't really matter whether you end up having to do the same one three or four times to get through.
Each time it'll play out slightly differently or you'll find a faster vehicle hidden away that lets you breeze through a race you were previously struggling to complete in your icecream van.
In any case, how can you complain about a game that offers up a mission entitled 'Big 'n' Veiny', where you have to steer a rickety van around town picking up piles of discarded animal porn that's been dropped by someone out of their mind on spank. I haven't had so much fun in ages and if Rockstar want to employ me as their evangelistically inspired preacher I'd be more than happy to quit my day job. Because, at the end of the day, finding fault with a game like this is akin to bedding Kylie Minogue and complaining that you got a pube stuck between your teeth afterwards.
It might not dazzle you with its complexity, but the rest of it shines so brightly you'll have to wear shades. I'd stake my life that not a single person that buys it will regret the decision and I'm willing to fight anyone that says otherwise. OK, we've had to wait a long time for it on PC, but it's just made it all the sweeter now that it's here. What's more, it's a tantalising taste of what's to come in the next version.
Put the same game in a complex city where you can go in every building, and where each character has a life and a reason to be in the game beyond acting as eye candy and I reckon you'd have the perfect game. They were going to have to do something really stupid to muck up the PS2 masterpiece and, as expected, they've done the opposite and actually bettered it The crisper and more detailed graphics are just the start of it, because in the end it comes down to it playing like a proper PC game.
Once you play it with mouse and keyboard it's hard to imagine how we could ever have played it another way. Your character is a complete idiot. The kind of person who thinks Ivanhoe is a type of Russian prostitute. He's ready to do anybody's bidding, gets shafted by all his bosses in turn and still keeps coming back for more. But the game itself is an intelligent orchestration of noise and violence that maintains a very cohesive shape despite its freeform nature. Although it's a shame you can't run over a line of Hare Krishnas anymore, there's no doubt that this is a true classic.
Because it does what all classic games should do: appeal to people who wouldn't normally play the genre. You may not play shooters, but we guarantee you'll get a thrill from this one.
Absolutely essential. You might not think a small graphical facelift is enough to radically alter a game, and you'd be right. But what it does is offer even more immersion in a game world that was already well out there.
You can have more fun just driving round, observing the inhabitants and taking in the sights as you can playing almost any other game released this year in its entirety. The level of detail is eye-boggling and some of the extras that have been inserted for your pleasure are testament to the work that's been put in by Rockstar. I've now played through the game twice and I'm still finding little quirks, like the workmen who play out a rendition of the Village People classic, YMCA.
Crowds gather round bodies and phone for ambulances, gunfights break out around you for no other reason than it's hot and there's not much else to do when you're an extra in a game.
Planes soar overhead and certain ladies come to investigate when you hoot your horn when parked on the side of the road. Oh, and did I mention that it looks the business? The Rockstar team are PC gamers, which is why GTA III was never going to be a sloppy conversion programmed by a couple of code-monkeys who map the gamepad to random consonants on the keyboard and leave us with a fudge of fixed resolution and console-style text.
Unlike other games I could mention. You can now look around Liberty City the way God intended, with mouse and keyboard and a resolution that's only dependant on your graphics card. But your mouse isn't just there to let you crane your neck and take in the cosmetic fluff. If you've played the game on your PS2 you'll know that one of the biggest flaws was the control system that made it almost impossible to aim your gun accurately, reducing certain missions to hit-and-hope of the worst kind.
The game is now infinitely better for this, although if you want to get the best of both worlds you'll have to switch to a gamepad when in vehicle. Them's the breaks. After a successful heist with your girlfriend, she realizes that you would better serve her and her upward climb in the criminal underworld as a patsy found dead at the scene of the crime.
By some strange twist of fate, you miraculously live and are sentenced to prison. However, Liberty City has other plans for you. While being transported to the prison, a daring jailbreak occurs for a top mafia boss who happens to be in the same armored car as you.

Bind it to one key and you are done. This mod will keep you busy for hours on end, guaranteed.
It turns the entire game into a sort of old-school zombie flick like Night of the Living Dead. Maybe not a mod for everyone, but certainly some will enjoy it. Especially for OG fans of the game. It even adds some new radio stations that are more in line with the supernatural ambiance.
The US East Coast is home to a diverse population with contrasting cultures and a lot of stories to tell. This massive overhaul by Swoorup brings together the bright Vice City and the dark, gritty landscape of Liberty City into a single playable map. It feels like a whole new game and in many ways it kind of is.
While many other mods attempt to bring together these iconic locations, this is definitely the most accomplished endeavor. This fantastic mod brings several new visual effects to the Vice City engine, including reflections on metallic surfaces such as cars, and even the infamous cinematic lens flare.
Easily the most famous GTA: Vice City mod has to be the Silent Patch, which fixes a stupidly long list of bugs overlooked by Rockstar, even after so many updates. The patch, made by prolific modder Silent, also brings back several features only available on console, giving you the most complete Vice City experience.
But it brings the Vice City experience directly to the newest engine. Not only does it feature the entire VC map, but also the classic vehicles and the whole campaign. The handling data is now installed. Find the entry for the new car and select that entire line. Paste the new default. Save the default. The wheel size and other special settings are now installed. Paste the new vehicle colours data.
Save the carcols. These must added to the list at the top of the file. The vehicle colours are now installed. You need to be very careful and patient for cars to work. You can use the files from your original install to fix the install you have modded. Then try installing the car again.
The car might be broken. This is very rare, though. Use the files from your original install to fix the install you have modded. Then try a different car.
