Does SA still mostly hold up? Tried playing GTA3 and Vice City and holy shit those games are antique pieces of shit. I have so many good memories with SA that I almost don't want to play it so they still hold up.I played GTA3 and VC but they pale in comparison to what I remember of SA.

I also want to go on a mini-rant to say Vice City is overrated, insanely gaudy visuals, terrible map, and shitty story (granted, none of the games have amazing stories). The only reason people pretend to like is because MUH 80s aesthetic muh vaporwave!!!!!!!

best map, most fun, most mechanics to engage with the game world, most skill in vehicles.

its the best game, gta5 is not a good game, but it looks good enough to larp in multiplayer

the only reason people pretend to like a whiny faggot like you is that dealing with your faggy tears is too much of a headache

Yeah, 3 and VC were always shit

what about gta4?

But yeah I hate GTAV it pisses me off that they had to shit on San Andres map the way they fucking did. Why couldn't they have just made up another new city? Why did they have to take the Los Santos and San Andreas name? GTAVs map is so different it really doesn't have any good reason to be connected to the previous games area like fuck.

if you get the opportunity you should consider killing yourself

4 is redundant because of 5 and the driving mechanics really ruin the game because the AI is one of the better ones in the series

It's crazy how small the game is once you remove the draw distance fog

I played them all on PC back in the day when they came out, and then bought the trilogy on sale on Steam a few years ago. I played the first few missions of VC and just quit, it really hasn't aged well. But I got 145 hours in SA. It's a gem. Still haven't bothered with 3 after the VC experience.

They used the terrain to slow down your driving and limited your visibility to make the map seem larger than it actually was. It's why to this day people believe SA's map and V's map are even close in size.

I think there is a bunch of mods to enhance the experience (both gameplay-wise and graphics-wise).

How playable is SA with kb/m? I haven't played it since the PS2 days and have been considering giving it another go.

One of my favorites.
One of my favorite parts is that you play a chunk of the game in each city and you're not running around the entire map every other mission.

Very

3 and V are the best games in the series. SA is minigame cancer. What happened to the fun? Thrown in the trash in favor of meaningless, shallow mechanics like stats and gangwars. It feels so half baked.

Do you think about what words you're typing?
Larp stands for live action role play. It's not fucking live action if you're doing it in a video game. It's just role play then.

Yeah it's bad. Again it just makes me hate what they did with GTAVs map. I would've loved a remake of SA like GTA 4 got, instead we got a shitty less original LA rip off and 50% of a map filled with nothing

agreed. dont get the insane love for SA, it has the worst and dumbest missions

Xbox 360 still used DVDs and PS3 only had 256MB of RAM

V>SA>VC>IV=III

See, so it worked. Morrowind has also basically a tiny island, yet it seemed absolutely huge when I played it.
Pure world size isn't everything.

What fun does 3 have that SA doesn't? Also you can completely ignore both the stats and gangwars if you're a fag and it'll barely affect anything

Yeah, that's weird. I haven't noticed that.

Alright what are some must have mods for SA?

SA is fine, story and characters, locations variety balancing shit graphics and clunky gameplay. Gta4 on the other hand holds even better

san andreas is ther best gta game ever created, the series peaked there and has been downhill since
after the SJW propanganda in RDR2 I don't expect gta vi to be any better

I love this game

Reminds me, I downloaded all of the radio stations for SA the other day. Includes all the songs, all the radio hots voices including voiceovers in the middle of a song. Loved the radio stations in it.

FUCK YOU I WON'T DO WHAT YOU TOLD ME

How so?

>not liking III and VC for the arcadey gameplay
The 3D universe in general feels like arcade games compared to the new shit

Just turn on v-sync in the graphics card settings and turn off frame limiter in the game

Physics get weird if you turn off the framelimiter in any of the 3D era games. Just look at , pretty much everything is off.

Well for starters it takes a bit of time to get from where they are to SF. There's also a bunch of things such as a farm, a logging camp and facories/warehouse which you can't really see in the pic. The map is smaller than it looks yes. But this pic somehow makes it seem even smaller when u can't see the details

Oh yeah fair, the buildings and terrain are in much lower detail than normal I noticed.

It's barely noticeable outside that one mission with the incoming plane

>Tried playing GTA3 and Vice City and holy shit those games are antique pieces of shit.

This games honestly play much better on KB+M. The controller lock on aiming in them is pretty ass. I liked 3 alright but VC and SA were about on par with each other, with SA having a bit more polish with its mechanics (swimming makes boats not a hilarious death trap, the shooting is a bit better, there's much more vehicle variety).

I was never the biggest GTA fan and I didn't even bother beating the games until years after their release, but you'd have to be a pretty big zoomer to cry about these games being too dated.

get the SA downgraded, it has all this in one

shut the fuck up zoomie
I just replayed GTA III and VC last week and they were both excellent
