Who here has GTA
 

and WHY is it so addictive? My husband has been playing it for over 6 hrs now. SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN! (not that I mind him out of my hair though)

I'm with you on that, I cannot figure out what is so great about that game??

:helpme

Either can I and he is like a zombie playing it. I dont really care him playing it, but I will kick his ass if he ever lets my son watch him!!!!! That game is awfully adult.

lol i sound like such a soccer-mom, huh?

The original GTA ? There's 5 now lol ..

I got hooked on Vice City .. beat it like 5 times and went out and bought GTA III (Vice City is basically GTA 4) and was less impressed since I was going back a version.

San Andreas just came out (GTA 5) and I'm pretty hooked on that.

You have to like video games in general to really understand the appeal. It's one of the few games that incorporate *every* style of game. Role playing, adventure, action, racing, fighting etc.

There's so many things to do in the game it gets very hard to become bored of it. You can play missions to advance the story line and it's like an interactive movie .. or there's tons of map and area to explore, things to find etc. There's side missions that let you do racing and sports like stuff .. or if you've had a bad day you can just run around blowing shit up with rocket launchers and beat the crap out of innocent idiots walking down the street.

One of the best series of games ever.

ive been wrapped up in gta: sa for a long fucking time now

probably put about 37 hrs into the game with 67% complete

I love games...don't like GTA.

Jen, I won't let him play unless the kids are out or asleep

:1orglaugh

what's gta?

the new gta is the shit. expect yer husband to put in 100+ hours of gameplay LOL no way you can beat it in less time.

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. PS2 video game. I think I am going to accidently step on it tomorrow.

im to the part where you start gang wars and take over different hoods, how much longer do i got untill i beat it

Maybe he likes picking up hookers.

I haven't bought it yet since I know I'm gonna lose a week worth of work when I do, so hopefully around x-mas when I can take more time off I'll get it. It's soooo addictive though!

Lol. Careful there!

I am not kidding. He just turned it off. That makes 8 hrs today wasted. Next husband of mine is going to be female. lol

I don't think I can get that game.

Might be bad for business.......

I just got conflict vietnam. But I can't play it for more than 20 minutes.

GTA SA rocks, i don't jave it yet, but i have played a bit at my friend's dorm, and i am scared to get it. Too much school work on the line.

Im so addicted! I can't get past the Wu Zi Mu race for some reason, so frustrating!

I can look great in a dress.

San Andreas is pretty good but somehow I liked Vice City better. Don't know why but Vice City feels a little more fun for me. Am I the only one who has trouble finding things ? I mean the cities are so damn big that it takes me a while to get back to my place after certain missions. The longest I've ever played it was 6 hours straight. That game should tie me down for a while.

I started with Vice City and I was hooked.... Waiting for the PC San Andreas and thankfully I have to wait because I don't have time planned for it's addiction quite yet.

I just hope it's as good or better the Vice City....?

SA gets way better

I've been logging a lot of hours on GTA: SA since the release date. I honestly didn't like the game at all until I reached the second city, and then I only liked it half as much as Vice City or even GTA: 3. Once I reached the last city however, I was totally into the game and everything new that it offers. I think I'm over 60 hours into it and I'm nearly done the main missions, barely been playing the side missions either. It's a long and involved game.

been playing it for a while now. Maybe 30 min a day at the most though. GTA:SA that is...

yea exactly

right now im working with rosenburg at caligulas and woozie for the robbery

I'm through a few missions of each of those, I just started the madd dogg missions and did the Tenpenny (sp?) one. I never did finish the Zero missions, what'd they give?

Damn; 60 hours !!! The longest game I've every played was Final Fantasy X and that was *only* 34 hours. There are not enough hours in the day for me to be able to keep up with your guys. Wow ! Just don't spill any spoilers on the board. I don't want to know anything in advanced :)

it's a cool game. imagine stealing cars in broad daylight.

the freedom makes is perfect

just the property earns for you

i love it, but i still think gta 3 is better than both VC and SA :2 cents:

no way

I'm stuck in the last mission. I hate it. It's like 30 minutes long, and I keep dying in the last 2 minutes. JUST before it ends.. not telling what it is, but it's easy to know it's the last mission + last moments.

It's frustrating to play the first 'easy' 25 minutes and then die at the same spot over and over again.

First off, I am not a gamer, but I love these games. I run out and buy all the GTA's and play them until I cant stay awake anymore. San Andres is just awesome!!!!! Keep it up Rockstar.
