Now, I never played GTA3.  I watched Lukas play it for a while one day, but never really got a feel for the play of it.  It&#8217;s taken a few hours, but I am starting to get a little bit of a feel and it&#8217;s pretty fun.  There are definitely things about it that I&#8217;d change a little if I was making the game.  My one complaint is that for someone who hasn&#8217;t played the game at all there is nothing to give you any kind of insight into how some things work. I can understand that they want you to learn how to do things by playing, but there are some things it doesn&#8217;t make much sense to learn in gameplay. For instance, that you can&#8217;t save when you are in the middle of a mission.  I honestly spent a good 40 minutes wandering around trying to figure out why I couldn&#8217;t save and only really found out when Lukas told me. I guess I see a slight difference between no information and just enough to get you curious and exploring. Beyond that one gripe though, I&#8217;m having a blast.  I actually had to go out to the store earlier and kept thinking &#8220;Hey, if this was GTA I could just drive up on the sidewalk and around all this traffic.&#8221; Luckily I didn&#8217;t follow through on that thought.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So I got a copy of Grand Theft Auto:Vice City today in a nice little game trade.
