I was a very good game and i only ever finished it 97%

Anyway back to the really thing

what was your favorite part of GTA 3 ?

My favorite part was when i first played on it i remember it so well it had just loaded up and i skiped the start so i had missed it unknowingly (sp) and so i carryed on playing. Right at the start on the ver first mission i thought 'oh great its one of these games where your allways in a mission, thinking of GTA 1 & 2, i thought i suppose it would be a good change and carried on playing soon to realise that it wasn't and i should have watched the start and i ended up watching the start about 50 times when i just got onto the last island and thought i wounder where that bank is i looked for hours on end and i eventually gave up went on the internet and had a look if anyone knew where it was and they did.

So behind the cliff's i went to find this place taking about 100 attempts to get round i eventually got there and acctually landed on the island got out thinking i've got to be careful because the ground ist solid and guess what. i could have sworn i saw and alien thier. anyway GREAT GAME.

My favourite section of the game was the Mafia missions on the first island. But if you want me to pick one moment, I think it'd have to be the bank heist - having three dudes with shotguns jump into your car shouting "go!" as you speed off past the police through backstreet alleys had an unbeatable professionalism to it.

Nope.

The opening cut scene was indeed a bank raid, in which our protagonist gets hospitalised by his double-crossing girlfriend, but I was referring to a specific Mafia mission on the first island. A playable section, not a cut-scene.

I really liked all of the game but I would say that the Mafia missions were perhaps my favourite as well.

The bank heist was brilliant for the reasons Mav gave, but I also enjoyed the Bomb Da Base levels. Saving up the money, then going out to actually do the mission, it was pretty satisfying.

I would also say learning how to fly the Dodo properly was a great feeling, especially after reading that some people said it should have been impossible, I felt kinda proud. Then everyone else managed to do it.
