The funny thing about the "utterly pointless" limted edition was that it featured a CD (remember those?) of the game's music, which struck me as odd because you could just use the game disc in the CD player I had. I guess some worked and some didn't.
There's likely a generation of people that think GTA didn't exist before GTA4, its been 13 years since GTA5 and few people realise the team behind it is based in Scotland.
I will always have fond memories at GTA1. My friends and I would get to 5 stars wanted level and see how long we could last in the face of overwhelming odds. Not using the secret tank of course. Farting and burping whilst walking along was only funny for so long, but I never got tired of doing hand brake turns over pedestrians and smearing their blood across the ground.
GOURANGA!!!
Similar here. At our upper school (13 to 18) we had an after school gaming club and would play LAN GTA Starcraft and even Carmageddon.
Good choices!
It was Quake 3: Arena for us in college, and no I'm not that old we played something quite retro back then already
