GTA: DP doesn't have Infinite Ammo cheat but GTA: SA does

GTA: DP doesn't have Infinite health cheat but GTA: SA does

I like GTA: SA far better.....I think there are more weapons, more vehicles too use. I just think GTA: SA is more "real" looking than GTA: DP

Pros: 1. FINALLY!!!! IT IS ON THE XBOX!!!!!!!!!

2. Two games for the price of one

3. Unlimited Freedom!!!! (if you want to get a tank and just annihilate people and cops, you can)(If you want to eat some pizza, you can do that too)(If you want to pee in the ocean, well, maybe you cant do that.)

4. Do many different odd-jobs for cash (Taxi Driver, Fireman, Policeman, stunt driver, or even a vigilante)

5. Excellent Voice Acting (makes you feel like this is a movie)

6. The infamous island transfer on the PS2 is almost nonexistent in the Xbox (less than 1 sec)

7. Lips move on the Xbox now.

8. Beautiful soundtrack (available for a very cheap rate as well)

9. The rest of the great goodness on the PS2 as well.

Cons: 1. Not enough extras to convert PS2 players to the Xbox version

2. Plot is just so-so

3. My mom won't let me buy it because it is too "violent"

FINAL VERDICT: BUY IT DARN YOU!!!!! BUY IT!!! As it says in the game, "Tie up your daughters, shoot your sons, 'cuz Love Fist is comin' to your town... er GTA is out for Xbox!"

This is actually 2 great games in one. You get Grand Theft Auto 3 and its sequel Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. I will review them individually. Grand Theft Auto 3 starts off great. You just got busted out of prison. What do you do, steal a car natuarraly. You race across the streets (hitting innocent bystanders)trying to get to your garage. This is like your base. Once their you can go out into the streets and beat up innocents for cash like a small thug. However you can also find work for bigtime crooks. As you complete their small jobs they will begin to respect you and the challenge of your jobs grows. This ia an outline of gameplay of Grand Theft Auto 3. Now for Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. This game is a good sequel. It keeps the good points of its predecessor while improving in many ways. You can now own property. The challenges are original, fun, and challenging. The weapons selections ranges from bats to rocket launchers. The graphics on the Xbox version are improved over their PS2 counterparts.If you own the PS2 version of the game this game is not different anough for you to purchase. However for us Xbox owners this is an absolute must buy. Having these games along with Halo on the same system is Awesome.

I'll never understand why people stand next to their XBOX, PS2, Dreamcast, whatever, as if it were a family member and ridicule other systems relentlessly. It's a machine made by a giant corporation fer crips sake. They don't care who you are.. .they want your money. Enough with the platform bashing already. The only thing I can say about the GTA Double Pack is GENIUS!... great games.. Don't miss them. XBOX boast great graphics and great sound. I can't complain there. So whether you ship your hard earned dollar overseas and buy a game system that was manufactured in Japan....or keep the cash right here in America, thanks to Big Bad Bill, buy this game. And enough with platform bashing already....Jeeze...

I've played GTAIII on the PS2, the PC, and now on the XBOX, and the XBOX has much better graphics than even my PC version. It's like they've added a layer of texture. Sports cars shimmer, and the old Jalopy's in Vice City have a flat, weathered look. When it rains, the drops run down the "lens" of the camera that follows you. I haven't fully acclimated to the games yet; I still miss my mouse, but the control interface is one of the best I've seen on a consol system. Rockstar Games not only ported GTAIII and Vice City over to the XBOX, they have significantly improved what were already incredible titles. The fact that you can now buy two full games for the price of one is just icing on the cake. Remember this time people, for we may not see another release like this for a very, very long time.

THE XBOX VERSION OF GTA 3 AND VICE CITY IS OVERALL BETTER. THE GRAPHICS ARE 100000 TIMES BETTER THAN THE PS2 VERSION. THE XBOX VERSION MOVES MUCH FASTER THAN THE PS2 AND THE WALLS THAT KEEP ON APPEARING IN FRONT OF YOU ALL OF A SUDDEN ARE ALSO GONE. THE ROADS NO LONGER TURN TO WATER ANYMORE AND IT EVEN SOUNDS EXTREMLY BETTER. THIS GAME ROCKS!

Before I bought this double pack for my Xbox, I had only played Grand Theft Auto for PSone and Grand Theft Auto III on a friend's PS2. So when I saw that these games were available on Xbox I was very excited because I thought they were exclusive to PS2. I can really see why these games are considered some of the greatest ever made because of their innovation, excellent missions, large level of controversy, and of course the car theft. The graphics however look ugly and there are targeting problems regarding guns. These problems are minor when you really get into these awesome games. So please, buy these games for PS2 or Xbox, and play the games that reinvented the video game industry.

Buy it. Quit reading the review, go buy it. I've been playing it for HOURS and want to quit my job so I can play it more. But then the electricity would go out... so I'm limited to 12 hours a day. This game is GREAT. Quick loading, smooth graphics, and better than the PS2 version... buy it. NOW!!!

I'd like to start this review by saying these are 2 of the BEST games I've ever played on any console (both were fist released for the PS2 console and later for the PC.) Finally the game(s) that xbox fans have been waiting a LONG time for are back with a avengence. Now it may look like the ps2 game but rockstar made little improvements to detail our hero (from GTA III) now sports a leather jacket (did I see this on the ps2 version?) the cars and textures are now more realistic and smoother (I thought) the rain effects were cool and colors are bright and vibrant. The controls for both games are customizable (the default controls just don't do it for me) Even though I have already played both these games countless times (many many sleepless nights) its the playability and fun factor of both games that drew me back. The cool thing that I like is the custom soundtrack aka cd changer option or tape deck in vice city (this may not be a big deal to most but it was a welcome addition in my eyes (not that there's anything wrong with Liberty's fine radio stations or even Vice City's for that matter) its just I like to listen to toonz more suited to my listening preferences. This REALLY is a welcome addition to any xbox gamers game collection EVEN if you have already played it on the PS2 or were frustrated with the PC version maybe perhaps due not having enough memory or something else PCs require its worth picking up and playing again (well you knew that already) I want to give the GTA xbox double pack 10 stars its worth it you'll be playing for ages even after you beat it.

These are great and fun games for adults. Parents should definetly make sure kids under 17 do not play these games because of the violence and sex involved. It has lots of regular story missions as well as side story missions. You can go anywhere and interact with anything. If you're over 17, this is a game you should definetly try out!

this game is so raw parents if you child is not at least 13yrs old you should not get it for them thats how raw it is

I have owned this game since the day it came out and I still play it on a regular basis. The games are blast to play over and over as well as just messing around seeing what crazy mayhem you can create next. GTA III is probably my favorite of the two but GTA Vice City is great too. Another great thing about the Xbox versions is that they have improved graphics and effects that the PS2 versions did not. The load times are also much improved as well. The only problem that I can find is that sometimes there is a bit of slowdown in certain parts and you can see that the games would look much better if designed from the ground up for the Xbox. Anyways this is a great collection worth getting if you have never played or owned these incredible games before. If you already own both on the PS2, it probably isn't worth buying again but the faster load times and improved graphics are a nice bonus.

THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST GAMES OF ALL TIME!!! It has been upgraded from PS2 to fit the XBOX. The game is so fun because you can go anywhere and do anything. These games are true classics. I don't know anyone who wouldn't want a copy of these masterpieces.

I've been hooked on this double pack since I first picked it up from the stores. This is my first time playing Grand Theft Auto, and as much as I try to keep myself from playing Vice City (I WANT TO BEAT GTA 3 FIRST!!!!), I always manage to find some excuse to take a quick break from GTA 3 and put in Vice City. Beside the violence, car chasing, etc. another thing that makes this game great are the missions. Rockstar did a great job mixing easy missions with the hard ones. A definite pick-up for anyone interested in this game.
