When the original game was first released on the PS1, I was about 14 or 15. Oh, the memories =)

I played GTA 2 when i was 10 on a Playstation of some sort.

So amusing to run people over then fart in their faces.

Nowadays, you can get it for free on PC.

GTAII on PC. I think I was twelve. I loved that game. I expecially loved that mission where you got like 10 extra men with you and got the assignment to go kill the other gang. You would hijack a bus so every one could get in and then drive to their base, get out and start the massacre with a small army. It was so sweet. I really wish they did another mission like that in GTAIV. Just you with like a truckload of extra men. That's awesome.

Wow, no ones played GTA1, I played it on the computer many years ago and it was such an great game, it was the top down perspective, the graphics were laughable but the gameplay was great, I still think the first GTA was the best.

I got GTA 1 on the day it was released in 1997. Been a fan of the series since. I have all versions of the game, even GTA2 on the dreamcast.

I started with GTA III, when it was ported to the original Xbox. But, since then I've had both 1 & 2 plus Vice City. If anyone is interested in playing the first and second GTA on their PC, it's a free download. You can get 'em here.

Yeah - it doesn't mention any sort of Macintosh support, sorry. It should work fine in Parallels (should you have it), right?

I first started playing it when OPM UK had a demo of GTA 1. never actually bought the first game. I had GTA 2 because I swapped it with a friend for Mechwarrior 2 without my mum knowing. Never bought GTA 3, borrowed that from a friend. My dad bought GTA VC for himself but I ended up playing it most. And I got GTA SA through a massive stroke of luck. My dad bought me Starwars BF 3 days before GTA SA launched, having completed it we took it back to the store to get different game. Me forgeting that this was GTA SA lauch day tried to buy it, only to be told it was pre-orders only. The women in front of us over heard me telling my dad about this, turns out she wanted halo 2 for her son not GTA SA. Luckly for me the guy behind the counter let my dad exchange SWBF for GTA SA.

I started with the original when I was a young lad.


Never ended up murdering people, either.

I was about 8 or 9 and my brother and i rented GTA 1 for the PS1 and i was hooked ever since.

I'm not sure if I'm going to pick this one up at launch though because what i always end up doing is just messing around in the game and not caring to much about the story, Yeah ill finish it like a year or so down the road but i don't have a whole lot of free time these days.

I remember playing it on the computer when it was still a top down view and it was just car jacking ... Then GTA 3 made the transition to 3rd person and the gaming world has been the same since..

Back in 1997 or 1998. I was 16 or 17, can't really remember exactly when I bought the game. I bought a used copy of GTA, it was scractched all to hell too, from a local Mom & Pop game store. I think I played it for about a year before I bought the GTA London add-on which I played for another few months. I then bought GTA 2 on the Dreamcast and again, played it for almost a year. I did the samething with the rest of the GTA games after that. I've even bought PS2's just to play them. I sold my PS2 right after I finished GTA 3, then Vice City came out and I bought a PS2 just to play that. Then once I was done, I sold it again. Then the samething happened with San Andreas. Now, I just keep my systems. LOL Looking back at my track record with this series, I'm sure I'll put many, many hours into GTA.
