I miss GTA IV's online multiplayer. It was simple, pretty basic compared to GTA online but so much fun.
Is Andrew the guy in the bear suit back in the PMI days? The bear Jake inevitably shot 😂
Nobody ever mentions "Carlito's Way" when talking about Vice City. That movie is HEAVILY referenced in the game. About as much as Scarface to be honest. The entire lawyer character was ripped straight from that movie.
Im in the minority. IV is my least favorite. They stripped away a bunch of features, driving was slow and sluggish. Just wasn't a fan. I've beaten it one time ever. Ive tried to play through again many times over the years just get bored. I'd go
Vice City
V
San Andreas
III
IV
San Andreas and V even in my book, equally great.
Looks like a video game ass video game
Jake pretending like he hasn't been playing GTA 6 the past few weeks
All time favorite for me is san andreas, but I have a very special place for gta 4.
Also think 4 is a better game than 5
The characters were alright in GTA 5 but I agree it isn’t that strong of a title especially after GTA 4 and 4 is also my favorite. Played it a ton in 8th grade and throughout high school. Also Liberty Rock Radio in GTA 4 is amazing 🙌
There’s a hip hop song I heard ONE time in gta SA that I have never forgotten, though I have completely forgotten how it went. But I remember liking it a lot and always looking for it when I played
Edit: I realized I’m an adult with free time and looked up all the songs, it was children’s story by Slick Rick 😂
All the GTA’s are great but GTA IV is timeless!!!
San Andreas is the best GTA. The only gangster RPG ever made. Like modern with real-time character changes. The stats in GTA 5 mean nothing.
Gta san andreas
Not GTA 5. Most definitely san Andreas or gta4 or vice City stories
I'm sure it will be a smash. I'm just not happy about the 30 FPS on consoles for an $80-100 GAME.
Come on man, vice city all the way that really hurts about grand theft auto five though great game!!!!
I agree about 5, couldn't get into the characters at all and put a huge damper on it for me unfortunately
Totally agree, GTA4 is my favorite of the series, even though I played the previous 3. GTA5 was meh
Until now I thought vice City was gta3 didn't know it was a separate thing. Never been into this series, new one like like it has an actual story and kinda interested. Just don't know $80 interested
gta 3 was my very first one and they have definetly always been awesome

Bro I can’t believe we’re this close and it’s actually happening. I’ve grown up with GTA starting with GTA 2. The hype is at insane levels right now, it’s gonna be a long time before something this monumental happens in gaming and I’m happy to be a part of it.
I don't get the hate for GTAV. It was a huge step up for me from 4. When 4 first came out everybody was complaining about the driving and lack of interiors.
Jason: "Lucia, lets go bowling."
Lucia: "Dude, I know what you really mean with bowling and I have a headache."😉
Always preferred GTA IV.
Every single time I hear “You Got Another Thing Comin” by Judas Priest, I instantly think of Vice City.
LA vs NY competition has reached video games!
I love’’em all since GTA III. Vice City is my favorite for setting and the music and characters. San Andreas was crazy impressive for how much stuff they were able to cram into that outdated game engine! Spent tons of time just messing around with all the side activities you could do. IV had by far the best story! Loved the darker tone, and the game physics were really impressive! V I’ve spent by far the most amount of time playing. Just an incredible sandbox style experience and a really fun story.
The list of songs… I know them ALL.. man we're old.
My favorite game was 4 as well
I know Ray Liotta passed away years ago, but if they somehow have Tommy Vercetti in GTA VI I’m gonna fan out like crazy!
24:26 honestly, this 😅 it’s never really resonated with me, and I don’t really have any special memories associated with it like I do with the other titles. I’ve only ever completed it fully twice, and it’s never pulled me to do a third.
4 is the best
Yoo, cool to see Jake's favorites are the same as mine! GTA IV and San Andreas are both trading blows in my top spot for the franchise.
Then at last we gta 5 😑
