Hardest GTA game?

[Stojko]

Which Grand Theft Auto game do you think is the most difficult so far and why?

GTA VC, VCS.

[Thomas.]

GTA III and GTA San Andreas because they were the longest and a load of new options. GTA III was a new game to the GTA Series and was the first 3D game in the series, It was hard because of different controls from GTA 2.

[Ivan]

I would say almost every GTA game is difficult.

[Mendoza]

GTAIII without a doubt

[GTA Don]

I would say almost every GTA game is difficult.

Yeah, I agree. But LCS was a bit easy, I completed in less than a week. I did have to go to school as well, so that cut out some playing time. GTA III was quite hard for me, it took me 4 months to complete Bomb Da Base, then I just used a rocket launcher to kill the Columbians.

GTA SA (without cheats)

GTAIII was really hard. Claude's flexibility was very limited as you could not rotate the camera while running/shooting etc without stopping. The missions were also pretty hard because the cars blew up after a few bumps.

Vice City was just as hard. And if not, harder.

San Andreas was too easy. I loved how you could finally freely rotate the camera. The only thing that made San Andreas so hard was like what Thomas said, there were so many options ad side missions to do that it would take at least 150 hours to complete. The highest I ever got in San Andreas was 92.1% but thats was deleted because I sold my Xbox

Defintetely SA, doing all these tags, oysters and photo-ops was hard.

[Kitsune Inferno]

GTA III, mainly because of the crappy and hard-to-see autoaim reticle. Not to mention you can hardly go anywhere in the city without being attacked.

[GTA Don]

After the mission where you had to assasinate Salvatore, if I wanted to go to Portland, I had to use a tank. Damn Mafia with their shotguns. Living in Shoreside was just as dangerous, the Hoods beefing. Claude's animations in GTA III sucked, the missions were as tough and car physics were shit. But GTA III was an awesome game nonetheless.

[azn]

To be honest I never completed the storyline missions for GTAIII and Vice City. But you just have to admire how Rockstar went into full 3D with one sequel!

GTA III. For a start, when my brother got the game, it was really difficult to play. I wasn't as good with the new Camera views as I was more better with the top down camera. But it was a nice fresh start, and playing around with it for a few hours made it a little easier for me. But there were a few missions that were really hard for me.

The main missions that I had problems with was "Expresso-2-go". I had alot of problems, but after reading some FAQs on it, it was better to find all the stalls on the map and then destroy them. Then came to killing Salvatore, it was quite hard to kill him, but I eventually got to killing him. But the problem was that all the Leone's were attacking the crap out of me with the shotguns. But yeah, it was a hard game, but now, it's become easy.

But yeah, GTA is suppose to be hard, and that's what made me get into the game even more since I wasn't really into the game as much. So I'd thank GTA III, since that's what got me into GTA.

I think it was hard cuz of the controls but i

got used to it

[LDoubleU]

the only thing that pissed me off with gtaIII was that the lock on reticle was quite hard to see...

oh and the last mission that pissed me off a lot!

[Vercetti Thug]

IM going to make a crazy suggestion, but maybe GTA Advanced was the hardest. I played it once, though I didnt own it, and got all the way up to where Vinnie was revealed to not be dead. After that, the Satan of all missions came, an impossible mission so hard, its unbelievable, destroy enough people in a time limit so small. It was so freaking hard.

[LDoubleU]

never played to be honest... was it any good?

[Vercetti Thug]

I think I forget, but umm I guess

[mutu]

GTA III and GTA Vice City, GTA III had all this massive shootouts at the end of the game that was almost impossible to complete. GTA Vice City had those last missions, but others than that, it wasn't really that hard to play, just a lot of side-mission you had to come to the last missions.

[azn]

Like I was saying, if the camera and controls were more flexible for GTAIII and Vice City it would have been easier then San Andreas. IV will definitely be harder then all GTA games so far.

[FnB]

A good question I have searched for...

The hardest GTA is definitely San Andreas. Damn some missions are damn hard, like N.O.E. and Vertical Bird. I haven't really passed them fully by myself YET.

Then Vice City Stories was second hardest even though I beat it in about 3,4 days. The main reason was "High Wire" that took 2 days of me and in these two days I could have completed the storyline faster but I managed it anyways.

GTA III had some suicide missions, I mean in Ray's mission you also have to gain a couple of wanted stars and then the Colombians are armed with every single weapon at a point of the missions. And some time limit missions are real hard like Kenji's GTA.

Vice City was quite easy but Demolition Man and Dildo Dodo put you into a limit.

Liberty City Stories was absolutely easy, completed 85% of the missions on first try. Steering the Vote and Love on the Rocks were hardest missions.

By far San Andreas. Part of it is because it's physically impossible to do some missions because of this crap computer, first of all. Second, some of the missions were way too long. There were lots of fun missions but the boring ones were the long ones with the exception of End of The Line.

[Mike356]

san andreas would be hardest took ages to complete zeros mission and big smokes were hard as well

Yeah missions like Lure and Photo Opportunity are annoying. Really, go all the way from San Fierro to the countryside for a few pictures and then just to drive a decoy and lure some Vietnamese bikers? Bullshit... Not that they're hard but long and boring.

I have to go for Grand Theft Auto III, purely because all the controls were new, the new engine was new and hard to get used to. I did thoroughly enjoy Grand Theft Auto III but I have to say that it was the hardest. On terms of missions then I would say Vice City Stories, it had taken me quite a while to complete that game, longer than San Andreas and Liberty City Stories.
