Is this the best GTA game?

>cool location, better than Vice "Nostalgia Bomb" City and San "Ooga Booga where da white womyns at" Andreas
>fantastic cast, including a perfect mute protagonist
>best radio song selection
>>
it's objectively worse than Vice City, so no
>>
5 is best and its not even close and this is with still playing SAMP and having replayed 3 and Vice City about 5 days ago. Take off the nostalgia goggles.

I wouldn't say it's the best but it is the most memorable out of all the game.
>>
as much as i love gta3, i always felt depressed that there was so much space but so little to do.

wake me up when videogames aren't big empty spaces anymore.

the talk radio and dance music stations were the shit though.

>>
>>319258147
5 isn't great to begin with the missions are all boring the story takes itself so seriously and they removed the jetpack so its shit
>>
Personally I liked Vice city more, I enjoyed its 80's aesthetic a lot.
>>
In terms of controls and general gameplay, it's the worst. The radio stations are short so that gets annoying after a while.

I like the depressing theme of it. Them toilets in the park I always seem to remember.

IV is objectively the best because of its fantastic story and characters.
/thread

From the PS2 era san andreas is objectively the best in terms of gameplay. Vice City is arguably the best in terms of setting and atmosphere. 3 is what you pretend to think is the best because people like to feel cool on /v/ I guess.
>>
>>319259490
And the city. Best city yet.
>>
>>319259398
I was playing the mission where you have to blow up boats. For some reason, one of the hydras you have to shoot down that was chasing you went way out of the map. Took me 5 minutes of flying over sea to finally catch up.

Vice city had the same swimming tiny map problems, but fixed/improved on the rest.

I think in order to fairly judge them you have to go on how the missions were, since every other game is largely derivative as far as gameplay goes. Going on that basis I'd say it ties with VC.

Then after you do it once and actually learn how to fly a plane, you can do it every time with little hassle.

That's the easiest school in the game to get all gold, followed by boat and then motorcycle. Fuck that driving school barrel roll bullshit though and city slicking.

You know how you pick up the rampage in between the two garages? Move on over to the other side of the lot where the Mafia Sentinel is parked. Follow the pathway around to where the health container is. Stay on that ledge and shoot down at them. Works most of the time senpai

Not for me. Are you turning the plane too much? Just need to use the button for making the wings turn rather than rely on the main driving controls. You unlock a cool vigilante helicopter for getting all gold so it's worth it. Problem is when you also unlock the hydra only some things spawn depending where you approach the airfield.

You don't need gold in the schools for 100% anyway. Just need bronze to progress.

Nice, but no. It's too imperfect (can't jump from moving cars, can't swim, music selection is more limited than in other titles.)

>I like the depressing theme of it.
This is going to feel silly, especially since the game was designed pre-9/11 but I feel like the game encapsulates 9/11.

Like, it had the whole technological impressiveness behind it, which makes it new and exciting like some aspects of mid-2000s america, but it's also got the deep psychological scar of 9/11 underneath it all making it depressing and at times unnerving (it couldn't be bad, it's the PATRIOT act, for patriots.)

i'm only half serious, but that's still half.

Weren't they 4? I remember getting 4 Molotovs. Also, when I was an underagefags that got the game at release I didn't understood what those molovots were. Because I had killed those hobos, I believed it was alcohol, and presses the square button to drink it, just to die in flames.

It is not uncommon for homeless people to live under bridges and inside train tunnels to have protection from the elements. Also, they were the only NPC that did not responded to the death of another NPC, I will go full Vaati here and speculate that it was because they had a package of drug in front of them.
