AThousandLies Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Well, I never officially completed the game. We had it on computer and I'd just load my brother's save games and continue from where he was. But since my various "gaming evolutions" (where due to increased intelligence/focus/whatever I'm much more capable with my dexterity, attention to detail, puzzle-solving and whatnot) I'm doing quite well on it for now. And it's a lot better than I thought. Usually after you play a revolutionary game, you appreciate it for a while but you leave it when something else cool comes along. I've never realised how awesome this game is, and how far ahead of its time it was. The story is still outstanding; I'd love to see it adapted into a movie (or maybe that would better suit another GTA game). I'm currently going for 100%; something I've vowed to but never have achieved on any of the GTA games. Right now, I think I'm on 70 something; done 70 of 73 missions (got the final one, the last 4x4 mission and another one I'm not sure of), just completed all the rampages today, done all jumps. Still have to do the car missions (firefighter, paramedic & vigilante), collect the packages (56 of 100 so far), do the last few missions and complete the car-delivery lists. Anybody else been playing it again recently, or completed in 100%? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Necromagus Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 I've only tried it once on GTA3, stalled out at 96 or 97%. I still have the save games on my computer, so if I get bored during the winter holidays I might give it a shot...

I find it hard to believe you can complete GTA San Andreas to 100% in a week. That's all the storyline missions, gaining all the territories, taxi missions, ambulance missions, firetruck missions, pimp missions, all the cars delivered to the garage, all the sub-missions, all the rampages, all the bike/car/plane school missions, all the running/swimming/biking missions, all the graffiti tags...... i'm pretty sure there's more but even that lot would take way more than a week. Kirk and Lars I could handle. At the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, the territories aren't necessary for 100%. But I agree in that anyone who claims to have beaten it in a week is lying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Putter Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 I think I got about...60% something in GTA3...Many of the side missions, plus the import/export. I never really looked for packages, jumps, rampages etc, as I played it after Vice City, which was better. I got like 94% in Vice and then got so bored I had to stop. I did however make it to 100% in San Andreas. It was too fun to stop playing :). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barihawk Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Well.. i got Vice City and San Andreas done 100%, took me about a week on either.. never tried for 100 on GTA3.. post a pic when you get it pl0x? It took the game development team almost three weeks to beat thier own game on San Andreas for bug testing. I am hoping you did not spend more than 9 hours at a time playing the game like they did. My heart is broken by the terrible loss I have sustained in my old friends and companions and my poor soldiers. Believe me, nothing except a battle lost can be half so melancholy as a battle won. -Sir Arthur Wellesley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indy500fan Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 san andreas wasd the only one i ever played, and i was very happy with it. never did get 100 completion though, i was probably around 60 or 70. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
assassin_696 Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 I got 100% on Vice City because i always really wanted those bodyguards (turned out to be not very good but meh). I tried for 100 on San Andreas but never made it, i found the street races and the fire truck missions too frustrating. It's an ongoing work though, i still play on it a fair bit. Never got GTA3, but i think i will. "Da mihi castitatem et continentam, sed noli modo" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I played (during school mind you) and I got roughly the same as you in a weeks time. But if I, or anyone who really wanted to beat it in a week, it is possible. It's about 10 hours a day, less if he beat all missions first try. But I don't know why anyone would ever do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timmay929 Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 I did beat GTA San Andreas, but not 100%. I did play Vice City, but I couldn't get past Shakedown I think it was called.

Rizla Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 I can't imagine anyone could complete it to 100% that fast on their first play through the game, or without a guide book telling them where all the horseshoes, oysters, grafitti tags etc are located.

Plus half the oysters are in absurdly hard to find places...It would take easily a week or two alone just to find all the collectables without some sort of guide.

dan_the_scot Posted December 17, 2005 Share Posted December 17, 2005 I tried for 100% in Vice City, but I must have missed one little detail because I'm still at 99%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
