Like I said, I finished every non-repeatable task in the game that could give money; I was still a good ~$75 million dollars shy of being able to afford all of Michael's properties. Making that up through the repeatable options is a non-starter; there's simply no way to bring in that much cash that doesn't involve playing the stocks.

San Andreas for me but Vice City is a close second. Both of them are fantastic.

When I first got Vice City I didn't have a memory card so I'd sit down and play it for 7-8 hours straight to get through it. The game was so charming and fun that it didn't bother me atall.

Yes, pretty much.

Like I said, I don't play Grand Theft Auto because I enjoy stock market simulators. Partaking in one should not be mandatory for any part of the game.

I have 3 & san andreas & then on DS chinatown wars & on PSP vice city storys. Out of that my fav is easily San andreas on PC.

I watch alot of YT vids of GTA 5 though (people doing crazy stunts & smosh games playing it) that would probably be my favorite if I had it.

Yeah, you don't have to buy all the properties. You also don't have to complete any missions or shoot anyone or move - you can just stand there and do nothing.

Don't be obtuse - you know full well what I mean. To buy all the properties, you are required to be a stock broker and in a game called "Grand Theft Auto", that's terrible design. I wouldn't mind it nearly as much if there was an alternate way to pick up that cash - like, say, more heists - but there isn't. Not in any reasonable amount of time, at least.

A couple button presses to buy a house =/= spending hours trading stocks.

hours? are you kidding me? just because you didnt take a few minutes to purchase stocks before changing the price during lesters missions (he sends you a message telling you that you can do that) doesn't the feature is bad.

Which, unless you already have a lot of money at that point, isn't going to make you anywhere near enough cash to purchase the properties at that point.

And there's really no reason why the mission couldn't have just given you a big payout instead of making you go through the stock market bullshit. It's adding an extra, completely unnecessary step that does not need to be there.

Interesting poll result. Vice city and San Andreas have tied at 36 points each, with GTA5 not far behind at 28 points. GTA3 and GTA4 have tied with 10 points each.

great poll.

i wonder what other gta games got the two votes...LCS or maybe VCS. I really dug LCS. Maybe GTA London.

GTA was a blast, but i can see why it's not too highly voted upon with GTA 2 improving everything almost.

By that logic, the fact that you can fly planes, drive boats, and shoot guns is also bad design. As is muggings, heists, gun battles, and literally everything else that people who actually enjoy playing the games like about them.

And for that matter, even when it comes to cars, things like racing them, modding them, or even jumping them off the side of a mountain for shits and giggles would all be off the table, because while that at least meets the "auto" criteria, none of that is really "grand thefting".

If we shat on games for not exclusively offering a literal and nothing else, about half of all games ever made (if not more) would have to cease to exist. Including a lot of otherwise extremely well-regarded ones.
