The Grand Theft Auto series has always had a buzz of controversy surrounding it. With Grand Theft Auto III, DMA Designs has taken the series to a whole new level by bringing it into a fully 3D world, with all of the hard-boiled violence that you've come to expect from these games. GameSpot's Jeff Gerstmann details just about everything you need to know about this over-the-top game.

    I remember one thanksgiving when my family and cousins came over. We were so amazing by the game. Just a great immersible experience and a classic no doubt.

    Cool game but lacks the features of san andreas or vice city. By now it's way outdated.

    It's awesome once you get to the last mission and gets boring after you beat the game.

    He was right skull_blader. It's not for everybody. In fact, I found that the content was just too much. They took it all WAY too far, for no real reason. I played it, and it was fun for a while. But the story got old real fast and once I got sick of running people over, I traded it.
