"Rockstar however, instead of releasing a game that was already available across every platform, has decided to go the route of releasing GTAIII on mobile and tablets (Check out Rockstars official supported devices website to see if your device made the cut).
This allows an already amazing company to allow people who wouldn’t own a console to experience a game that has been a staple in the open sandbox genre.
But does it translate well enough to smartphones/tablets?"
As the oldest entry in the GTA trilogy, GTA 3 is often overlooked, but time has shown that this may be the title that has aged the most gracefully.
SA aged best to me, especially after you max out your skills, shooting especially becomes far closer to something modern.
Always loved GTA3 the most. Everything has personality, the islands, the areas, the gangs etc.
Being a huge Scarface fan. Both the movie and PS2 game I like Vice City the best. I'm also a sucker for the 80s so I'll always give that GTA an edge.
The iconic radio station Chatterbox FM in GTA 3 was slap-dashed together, but the end result was magical.
Take-Two Interactive have issued a DMCA takedown for the removal of the recent fan-created Grand Theft Auto Vice City and GTA 3 source codes.
Too late. They're already online. Might be a little harder to find now is all.
I'm really not sure how this would translate that well onto touch screens. Games need to be made for the platform imo, not adapted any old way.
Look at MW3 on Wii....
Controls are kind of important...they'd be the first thing to get right in a game adapted to tablet...
Why did they make this for Mobiles
They should of done a HD version for GTA 3 with added content for consoles. I hope when San Andreas anniversary comes out they'll have a HD collection of GTA3, Vice City and SA.
Us gamers are the ones who bought GTA3 when it came out, don't know why they wouldn't do something special for us instead of mobile users
Plays ok on my ipad thoe i agree pad is better.
plays pretty well on my 4s. It gets a little tough when you have to shoot multiple enemies. I NEED BUTTONS!
