    1) ALWAYS have body armour
    2) ALWAYS save after every mission
    3) COLLECT every hidden package
    4) Treat the IRON PATRIOT like your baby and only use it during the last few missions
    5) If you can, keep your DISTANCE for every gunfight.
    6) Do EVERY side quest! It’s incredible just how useful it is to have police bribes and extra health at every safe house!

    7:17 This was a BIG problem that I had with this game and GTA Vice City. When shooting the enemies, they didn't stagger or show that they were losing health, so they would keep shooting you while literally being on fire until their HP went to 0%. So glad this changed in San Andreas.

    I was 19 about to turn twenty when GTA 3 came out. I was amazed at how every single mission allowed you to approach the task however you wanted. I couldn't kill Salvatore leaving the nightclub without getting gunned down. Then I tried firing an rpg from the rooftop across the street. Success. This was the first game that really tossed you the keys and said have fun. Totally blew my mind. If course this trend would continue in subsequent GTA titles, this was Genesis for me.

    The difficulty in Gta 3 and some of the other older games would be drastically reduced if there was some sort of a cover system. As far as I am aware, gta 4 was the first gta game to introduce a cover system so Niko could duck behind cars and walls and shit and fire from cover. That alone made the game so much easier than it's predecessors, it was unbelievable. I don't think I ever failed a single mission in GTA 4 more than twice. Whereas in Vice City and 3 I failed some missions up to 25 times or more.

    • @Stinkyremy

And no, Gta Vice City and San Andreas don't have any cover system like Gta 4 where you press a button and your character immediately takes cover behind the closest wall or car, and you can't shoot from cover like Gta 4 either. I have played both SA and VC on and off for like 10 years, I would have figured out if they did.

She was incredibly impressed, I bet.

    Off topic, but something I found early on when I was a kid playing GTA 3 is at the very beginning of the game (once you complete the first mandatory missions), you can go and get a fire truck and just do the missions, putting out car fires. The cool aspect is that all cars from the different gangs and parts of the city will spawn. So, if you wanted a Yakuza car, or the Yardies hydrolic car, a cheetah, infernus, Cartel truck, Ice Cream truck etc etc etc, just do these missions till the vehicle appears, put out the fire and take the car.
    Its really awesome.
    I did something similar on GTA IV. GTA IV had those Brucie missions and there were 3 unique cavalcades in the game. One was black (with a silver/green/blue/red two tone paint) with black rims you got from the mob construction mission with Playboy X. You could fail the mission and go take it to one of your safehouses (you can also put the car on a safehouse parking spot before you even unlock it, which saves the car).
    Second was a Brucie car recovery email. It was a red cavalcade with black rims. You had to kill the enemies, then shoot the cavalcade where fire started to appear, mission would fail, then quickly jump in and use the phone cheat for health and armor to fix the vehicle. You gotta be quick. Then bam rinse and repeat till you have all the red cavalcades you wanted.
    Last one was a Brucie contact (forgot the guys name) and it was a teal cavalcade with black rims (my personal favorite) and do the same as the red one.
    I know that was super off topic, just a flood of memories came back and if anyone likes unique vehicles in GTA this was a way you could stock up.
    I am super excited to see what they do with GTA Deluxe edition and see if this first little trick works still on GTA III. I hope everyone is as excited as I am. So glad to see these games with newer graphics and brought back to life for console.

    III isn't my favorite GTA game (in fact, I didn't really enjoy it much until I got my hands on the PC version with its much superior mouse-oriented camera aiming, and it doesn't help that I played it AFTER VC and SA), but I absolutely respect the hell out of it. Everything from Vice City to Red Dead Redemption II have had to stand on the shoulders of GTA III. I also really love III's atmosphere, it feels just like a grimy East Coast city circa the very late '90s/very early '00s. I can't wait to return to OG Liberty City in the Definitive Edition!
    EDIT - ... welp that last bit aged poorly.

It makes sense story-wise, but this meant if you blitzed through the story and wanted to go back to previous areas to do 100%, you'd find it stupidly difficult to get anything done.

    @SilkCutJaguarXJR- 3 роки тому +11

    that's very well put: "it's worth it for the feeling of mastery"
    It's definitely what keeps me coming back to this game over and over again.
    The feeling you get when you climb onto the train tracks, jump off the rails onto the roof of a building and pick up the ak-47 that you knew was hidden on top of that roof, know the location of a bunch of hidden packages and get free weapons for picking all of them up by memory, walk in the weird low-poly alleyway in between two buildings to find the secret room full of weapons or even use weird strategies to complete missions you've done before, like jumping off the cliff to get the police bribes and easily escape the cops on the bank robbery or plant a bomb on the car your target is going to try to escape with, is to me a feeling pretty hard to come across in more modern game design but personally perhaps THE more enjoyable part of this game's experience.

    • @TwinSticksReviews
      @TwinSticksReviews  3 роки тому +2

    Great, fair review of one of my top 5 favorite games of all time. Give me this and GTA SA over GTA V, where most of the countryside isn't even used for any sustained period in the main storyline. Or where at times you just feel like an administrator to the story, watching long cutscenes and then following a predetermined route. Smaller maps like these feel bigger than GTA V.

    • @TwinSticksReviews

Like i think it would be cool to start off like that, no indication of where they are but you can still find them, and then also have way for you at least know when one is in your area but not exactly where so you still do have to look .

    Great video! Platinumed this on PS4 about 6 months ago. Followed a guide and did the emergency vehicle sections straight away, and the ambulance missions were still a nightmare even without gangs around. Not ashamed to admit I used the better vehicle handling cheat (and the pause exploit for the vigilante missions).
    Also agree the open world is great - remember seeing the skyline of the 2nd island off in the distance from the 3rd island and being blown away by what a fully realised world this was, especially for 2001.

    I learned this the hard that if you want to do the side missions Police/Medic/Firefighter/Taxi - YOU MUST DO THESE FIRST and I cannot stress how important this really is because if you do the storyline first then there is no way you can do these side missions because most gangs will hate Claude and will kill him. Here is my method of getting 100%,
    First Island:
    Side Missions
    All Reachable Packages
    Rampages
    Storyline
    All gangs on Portland are neutral towards Claude until you complete certain missions in the Storyline and only then the Triads and Diablos are hostile until you complete Sayonara Salvatore for Asuka.
    Second Island:
    Side Missions (note that only hostile gang is the Cartel in Fort Staunton area when first unlocked)
    All Reachable Packages
    Rampages
    Storyline Missions (The Yardies and the Cartel are hostile towards Claude once you complete the missions for the second Island) Only the Yakuza are friendly towards Claude on the second Island.
    Third Island:
    Same as above really. That's how I did the 100% when I last played the game in 2003. I moved onto Vice City when that came out in 2002 for the PS2 and didn't really bother with this game afterwards but I hope my method is helpful to someone that is struggling to get 100% :).

    I recently felt like hitmarkers are more of a bandaid fix in order to give more feedback to the player when they're doing damage when they realize that the stun animations for the enemies just aren't noticeable enough. For multiplayer games it's fine since they can't make the animations too crazy and thus mess with the hitboxes but for single player games it always just looked lazy to me when they did that.

    • @TwinSticksReviews
      @TwinSticksReviews  3 роки тому

      That's a good point. I've heard this sort of thing described as visual popcorn, along with damage numbers, which makes me cringe slightly. I guess it depends on the situation. If its an open world game where we're shooting enemies at range I'd like them, but for a linear game maybe not. I thought they worked well in Rage 2 where a red skull flashed on your cross hair when an enemy had been defeated.

But for the amount of subscribers you have and for the quality of content you produce should be criminal. You know like in boxing there is a best pound for pound player, you're most likely the best pound for pound UA-camr, comparing your sub count to the quality of videos. It may be discouraging sometimes to see your other reviews fall short in the view count compared to the GTA, don't start doubting yourself, cause the quality of the vids are just as good, it's just many people are gravitated towards Rockstar more than any other company sadly. Your watch dog videos were excellent, sadly Ubisoft are trying so hard to be another GTA success, when they can be so much more. I for one like mayhem and doing things not so stealthy, but even that doesn't stop me from admiring and being flattered by watch dogs' approach to the modern world, as almost every single person stepping foot on this earth has a smartphone, and hacking is basically implemented in our lives for the better or the worse. This is REALLY getting long, all I want to say keep pushing man, everyone likes to watch those big named UA-camrs, there's no guarantee you'll ever be one, but at least you got the pleasure of doing what you love on a practically daily basis. I'm gonna keep searching through your videos, but I admit there's not a lot of things to view, you gotta step up your game bro 😅. It's like a drug, once you see one, you want more, you're definitely gonna grow and really quick. Btw before I go for good, which GTA was your favorite out of the trilogy and which GTA is your favorite GTA of all time?

    0:38 Instead we would have a different set of games doing it, and instead would be saying "Without Street Slaughter, we wouldn't have these games!" We'd still have the third person open world genre, we'd just have different games in it and be fond of those instead. So it isn't all bad.
    Early on we had games like Terminator, Vette! and Hunter doing it in the early 90's. So we would still have the genre in some form. GTA 3 didn't do it first, it did it popular.
    It's funny, some of these immersive things that GTA 3 did....GTA 1 did, like the paramedics and fire engines. GTA 2 had hidden packages too. GTA 1 and 2 had trains. You could even drive them in GTA 1 and blow them up. As well as radio stations. GTA 1 and 2 had the same map thing, even lacking a minimap. Rockstar did GTA 2...so it wasn't entirely their first.

      @TwinSticksReviews  3 роки тому +1

      Haha Street Slaughter sounds like a great game. It's definitely on Steam early access somewhere.

They did a lot of firsts too, the first game to stream data from disc and the blend of driving, on foot and shooting gameplay.

    This was a great video! I've really been enjoying my replay of this game.
    You only touched on this briefly but a big reason why the voice acting was so good is that they had a phenomenal voice cast. Michael Madsen, Michael Rappaport, Kyle McLachlan, Frank Vincent, Robert Loggia, Joe Pantoliano (Cypher from the matrix!)...Some of these people were pretty big stars, and a lot of them specialized in organized crime roles. This isn't to mention the more typical voice actors who, while they're not famous, certainly all did a great job!
    This was in 2001. I don't think I know of another video game that actually went out and sought such high pedigree actors for a video game. The GTA series was a top-down arcade-ish game before this. Can you imagine the pitch they gave all these actors? They got Kyle McLachlan to play the shady businessman in a video game in 2001! Utterly amazing and game-changing. I know this probably sounds like no big deal in the 2020s but I was honestly shocked when I looked at the book that came along with the game in 2001 and actually recognized some of the names.

Luckily the NPC's have Stormtrooper-like accuracy if they are above 5 meters away from the player. This is showcased in the second mission on Stanten Island where you need to snipe a bunch of CIA standing on the skyscraper opposite to Kenji's casino. They do have M16's but they will never hit you with them. If you're quick you can still grab the weapon pickups from them - i think this is the earliest M16 you can get.

I somehow miraculously got through 13(! 😭😡) Vigilante missions before I was blown up using that method. And I tried using the skip that got me to Staunton Island early for the Ambulance missions since the time limit is more forgiving there, but one of the gangs there was already hostile and shooting at me on sight, so I inevitably got blown up, AGAIN by them no matter how carefully I drive, because sometimes you HAVE to stop in an area where the game tells you to pick up a patient, and it gives ZERO FUCKS if your vehicle gets filled with holes and looks like Swiss cheese. It pisses me right the fuck off.

      However, as to the main question, I unfortunately have to disagree. I think if the question was if it was still GOOD and not GREAT, my answer would be an unqualified yes; however, great? Nah. It’s just got too many aspects that look and feel antiquated by today's open world game standards.

      It's best to do it on the first island. And when in doubt, use the in game map in the definitive edition to determine which patients are closer to you.
      Remember, with every patient rescued, it heals your ambulance up a little bit, no matter how much cosmetic damage it's taken.
      Knock the passenger door and the doors in the back off with the baseball bat so the patients can get in faster.
      Also, the handbrake is your best friend when you got to deal with sharp turns!

    Gta 3 is one of my favorite games still to this day because I am a big fan of the open world game, the game can be extremely frustrating on console and I actually hate console games because I’ve grown up with PC games and it’s more enjoyable to manually aim than to have auto aim, Gta 3 don’t run good at all in 2021 on PC,
    But if you download silent patch everything will get fixed, like bigger square objectives on mini map so you can see the objective, fixed the dark car bug on Steam, every weapon is fixed to the aim dot, no crashes at all, I literally mean it, 300 hours on Steam without a single game crash, always play in 30FPS I see so many people trying to play in 60FPS and the game gets nearly unplayable, if you just try to play in 30FPS for 5 minutes you will get used to it because it’s consistent and it runs smoothly without any problems, like my brain hate when I play other games on 60FPS and it goes down to 59 because its become enoying frame lag. That’s why you cap Gta IV for example in 62FPS in nvida settings for best experience because the game for example goes bizarre over 70FPS like the AI will bump into walls and doors and you have to push the characters in missions, that’s why I capped it,

    If you think this game difficulty is hard and missions are hard to complete that's because you haven't done the side missions and collectibles. Side missions and collectibles in gta 3 give you amazing rewards. Like weapon pick up at your safehouse, infinite sprint, police bribes at your safehouse, better faster and unique cars, and much more. Doing side missions at the very beginning of the game is the #1 rule for every classic 3d Era gta games. Meaning from Gta 3 all the way up to Vice City Stories.

      Yeah games were solid back in the day. I'm glad we have forgiving checkpoint systems now though, as well as enemies that don't hide behind corners. That was the worst.

      @@TwinSticksReviews I don't know. I prefer it better without checkpoints. Makes it more difficult and challenging. Also when you do fail the mission it makes you get more creative on how to pass the mission. Where as in gta v you don't have to struggle because of checkpoints. And if you keep failing you can just skip the whole section of mission by just pressing a button. I mean like wtf? No I don't like that

      @@theelitegrinder4338 for me it depends on the situation. I didn't like it in GTA3 as the hard bit was always at the end of a mission. So I'd spend 5 minutes doing the easy section then die, then spend another 5 minutes doing the easy section again. But then on the last mission, which was pretty hard throughout, it was fun trying to master it. In an ideal world, the checkpoints would be after different sections like a FromSoftware game.

    GTA 3 specifically will forever be a universal classic. It was the start of a new era when it was released. It really was a pivotal and historical moment in time when it first came out. I was about 7 or 8 playing this and i had to hide it from my uncle because it was violent as hell and he didn't like me playing it. I'll never forget it. True genuine geniuses..yes you read that right. Rockstar has to be the greatest gaming company of all time. If it wasn't for this game i wonder where gaming would be today 🤷🏽‍♂️🤔 . Man oh man. I'll be 50 years old still playing these classics at home.

    It's missions are not that difficult you just got to think outside the box, the game has it's Flaws. Keeping that in mind it's easy to manipulate. For example I would setup a car when I knew the route the AI was going I would set up a car just before it would trigger the mission so I knew exactly where in the mission my vehicle was taking damage then I would simply hop into a new vehicle and continue. Like you said the game was made in 2001 so AI in games was still very primitive.

    I found GTA 3's hidden packages more reasonably positioned than VC. I could honestly find about 70-80 of the packages without any guide, it's not easy, but it was a reasonable challenge and most importantly it was fun. The inclusion of helicopters in VC means many packages were hidden on rooftops, which is stupid, because nobody's going to bother checking every rooftop; they should all be accessible on foot imo, otherwise it's not fun. Didn't bother with the collectables in VC, map just isn't as fun to search.

    I couldn't ever go back to a game like this that I once loved more than any game ever. Everything moves on, graphics, sounds, cutscenes but also mechanics move on a huge amount. It's the same with cars, I had a GTE 16 valve back in the 90s when I was an Essex Boy Racer. I loved that car more than anything! For its time it was RAPID and as a twenty odd year old I had some great moments, some very fast moments and some very scary moments. But that was over 20 years ago! If I drove one today I know it wouldn't drive anywhere near as good as I remembered it as cars are built way better today, way more solid and safe, better suspension, chassis, brakes etc. That's my opinion with old games. Sometimes it's best just to move on with things as technology gets SO MUCH better over the years. When it gets to a new generation I NEVER go back to the old generation ever again. But I do enjoy you doing it!
