Up until now I have heard a lot about GTA3 but not really seen many pictures at all so I went out and got Games Master Magazing because it had a huge feature review on GTA3 and I want it even more badly than before. All the pictures look absolutely brilliant. I need this game!

Rockstar really look like they have hit it big. They have made this an incredible 3quel to the GTA and GTA2 games which also were both really great. The game is a huge update on Driver really because you can get out of the car to do your dastardly deeds. But it is a lot safer staying inside your nicked car. As well as robbing cars you can deal drugs and blow up the police with huge bazookas. Waheyyy! There will also be around 50 vehicles. Another step up from previous versions.

COMPUTER AL

In the game some people will strangely attack you for no reason. Never mind. Just blow their heads off. The police cleverness has been updated as well according to Rockstar. The police set up car blockages to stop you. But if this happens all you have to do is get out of your car, pull out a huge gun and blow up the cars, get back in and drive through the hole you've made, running over some police in the process.

MISSIONS

At first, not many people try to complete the missions. It is more fun to go around and do as you please in the town so forget those missions and get out and cause some hell in town. Once you get to know the game a little better you will get into the missions and try and complete them. The missions are mad. You escape form police and try to get your act together as a hard, wanted criminal. Brilliant.

GREAT LITTLE DIFFERENCES

The game, as it is for PS2 has a brilliant difference in appearence from it's procedors on the PSX. It looks like, form new camera shots, that there will be a first person view, but this may only be on the FMV bit. But what this bit is about is the detail. The explosions look fantastic and the detail on people passing by's faces is stunning. Their faces move and all that kind of thing. Also, if you steal a taxi, you can charge them for the fair to get more money for your "kitty" (Anne Robinson style). Another feature, quite like the previous one, is when on a train you can go up to the front and kill the driver and control the train for yourself. This will prove to be great. I can't wait to try it out. The last thing in this section is that, if you are on a run from the coppers, and you nick a car you can take it to get spraypainted, so the cops don't know it is you. Cool or what?

LOOKS FROM NOW

This games really looks and plays the biz. Overall form looks so far I would give it 96% and 10/10 Absolutely amazing.

Thanks 4 reading, Afro.

Get out there and kill!

From the previews I've seen I think that Gta3 looks much more complicated than the previus two.
