Most of you already know but i am getting increasingly annoyed with people saying it can't!

I just heared they can't do GTA3 on GBA 3D, why not they can do all other driving games 3D?????

Doom, Eck Vs. Sever and Backtrack are all 3D games, and isometric 3D can be used.

Thank you!

Your not wrong er-no, i managed to get into a trade exhibition a little while back, and they were showing a game on gba that wasn't too disimmilar to driver, escept for textures, the 3d looked pretty good.

I heard somewhere a company was delevoping a game or a unit that uses the full power (or adds more) to the GBA enabling it to reproduce such 3D graphics as that that the Playstation can handle.

This is not a lie, this is happening somewhere, just you people wait. :)

Golden Sun has got 3D - in the battles and on the world map (it is proper, not isometric)

gameboy can not produce proper 3d graphics because it does not have powerfull enough processor, most of the 3d games are actually 3d spirits that make the game look 3d, like donkey kong on the snes was 2d but looked 3d. but besides it does'nt really need 3d graphics as the screen is small and 2d games do the job just fine.

I woudnt really be too bothered if it came out or not.

I bought GTA for the GBC and it was a pritty crap really. Now I know the GBA is much more advanced than the GBC, but in essence the GBA is really suited to producing SNES/Megadrive games. GTA3 is just a step to far for the GBA. Maybe an enhanced version of a top view GTA would be better suited. Although I still dont think it would be that enjoyable on the small screen.
