    Cool. Was it just the first one, or was it several of the games?

    I doubt it. He does not look that old in Vice City which takes place in 1986. That would be 17 years latter. He would probaly be a kid in 1969.

    The graphics on the PC version of GTA3 could've been better; it's still nonetheless a blast to play. it helps that I have an FBI skin (but with the Bureau logo on the back instead of the acronym) and the car to go with it.
    A definite plus is the MP3 station... the fact of there not being track controls (next, previous, shuffle toggle) is a pity.

    I think you do need an up-to-date, high end PC to run GTA3, yeah. Can't remember the precise specs, though.

    I plan to in the near future, even though I have both GTA3 and GTA:VC for the PS2. Dunno why I'm still getting it, I'm just crazy, I guess. But for now, I've got to finish Gladius.

    Find police badges or paint shops. Knowing where they are is key to surviving in the game. Also, if you're at two stars or below, you can simply lie low for a while in parks or alleys and the cops will forget about you.

    oh man. I have Vice City for PC, but during the course of me doing missions, I picked up 4 hidden packages here and there. Then I tried to go around and collect them all using a guide, and now I can only get 99 packages :(

    Apparently there are all sorts of bugs in the new Xbox versions, although I haven't noticed them.

    Hmm, that's unfortunate. I've heard of a silent pedestrian glitch. What others are there?

    Statement: I remember in GTA2 there is this one really obnoxious DeeJay, Dean Frances or something like that. The guy is always whining and crying about things that keep happening to him. For example...

    Dean France: Let me tell you what happened to me the other day. I pull into the store to pick up some champagne for the missus tonight. I am not gone five minutes...and when I get back....my car is GONE!...Stolen.....5TH TIME THIS MONTH!!!!! Boy these car thieves, these Joy Riders, you just give me a neck to these people so I can put my hands around them and SQUEEZE!!!!

    And other funny stuff like that. I would love to see them bring Dean France back, and having him and Lazlow's radio stations in some kind of rating's war, where you tune in to Dean France and he is bashing Lazlow and tune into Lazlow and he is bashing Dean. I think it would be a riot.

    Car Jacking is really alot of fun in Vice City,most people just get up after being thrown from their cars and pull you out and take off,stealing motorcycles is fun but i love knocking the White Trash bikers off their bikes with a car first, but the most fun is car jacking Police vehicles especially tanks,there is an easy way to shake cops during a chase just do a drive by shooting on their cars and they'll stop but it doesnt work on tanks though,too bad Tommy Vercetti cant car jack any Cab Drivers like Travis Bickle that are armed and dangerous that would be fun trying to fight off a crazy cabbie with a semi-automatic weapon everytime you want to steal a cab,would add some realism too.
