It's the 10th Anniversary of Grand Theft Auto III

Can you believe it's been a decade since Rockstar went and kind of changed everything?

Keep on rockin', star

That actually looks halfway decent. I wish they'd do this for ps3/360.

I remember playing this game for the first time. Totally blew my mind. Can't believe it has been ten years.

I thought this said "100th anniversary" I need to go to bed

I got this and a PS2 for my birthday when it came out. Some of my happiest memories. I couldn't believe it, a massive world to explore and I could do anything I wanted.

So of course I killed some hookers.

GTA 3: The game that created "jank"

10 years on and we are left with GTA games that aren't as fun as their predecessors.

Saints Row 3 looks to be the San Andreas of this gen.

It blows my mind that ten years have passed. Fuck.

Th3_Jameson Oct. 19, 2011 at 9:07 a.m.

I fucking loved this game.

I remember getting GTA III when it was released - it's hard to imagine its been 10 years...

No RDR for PC means Rockstar has been dead to me for quite a while, but I still cherish my Vice City soundtrack box.

Same here, I'm guessing that would take up a lot of time though, I'd rather have GTA V.

  Gamersgate has the entire GTA collection for under €14.
 
And of course, ENB and iCEnhancer mods.

GTAIII still has the best video game trailer/commercial.

Rockstar, remake GTAIII, VC, and SA on the RAGE engine with updated graphics and controls and junk, and I'll give you all of my money.

"Thank you for all your support"

That's why were bringing this for the iPad and don't make a version for the plattforms that helped GTA to become what it is today.

Thank's rockstar

GTA 3 was and still is awesome.  
 
I always think of this song when I think of GTA3, even though this was only featured in Liberty City Stories:

This was the first PS2 game I played... Was a pretty fucking awesome way to be introduced to a new generation of consoles.

sofacitysweethearton Oct. 19, 2011 at 9:25 a.m.

...and then proceeded to make the exact same game for another decade, while peaking at the second game. Go away, Rockstar :|

Meatsimon Oct. 19, 2011 at 9:26 a.m.

Oh man, I am starting to get old.

nohthinkon Oct. 19, 2011 at 9:27 a.m.

So... I still don't understand. I get that it's 10th anniversary but... are they re-releasing the game? Or are they just saying "hey, it has been 10 years"?
