the best get even better

Strengths: graphically better than PS2, faster loading, same great gameplay

Weakness: none

I have these games for the PS2 and they are great on that system. But on the XBOX its improved with better graphics, faster loading and custom soundtracks. If you haven't played these games, its not quite explainable but you must go out and get them. Its like being in a real city with the freedom to do whatever you want. This is the best series of this generation.

Grand Theft Auto Double Pack

Strengths: The better and more advanced version of GTA3 and GTA4:Vice City.

Weakness: The missions are harder which is bad but it is also good.

I love this game, I have it and I beat it 100% for both of them. I couldn't ask for anything better than this beauty.

Grand Theft Auto Double Pack

Strengths: Way better graphics and gamemanship than Sony Playstation 2.

Weakness: None

Getting two games for the price of one is unheard of! The controller settings are unique because of the vibrate mode. The soundtracks are also in Dolby Sorround which is unque to the Microsoft X-Box Platform.

These Games Rock!!!!!

Price Grabbe is the Best!!!

Grand Theft Auto Double Pack

Strengths: Very fun, tons of cars, weapons, and stuff to do

Weakness: addictive

PS2 used to be the only console with GTA and everybody with an Xbox got jealous and started saying Halo was incredible, and that Bill Gates is a god (but when people say that I wonder if Billy Gates is brain-washing the people who play Xbox). Everybody began buying PS2 just for GTA3 and Vice city.

But all of that changed...

Now that GTA is on Xbox, PS2 doesn't have a trademark game. Xbox has Halo, but what about PS2.

Anyways, GTA is the best game that is currently on the Xbox. GTA is much better than Halo, in my opinion, because there are much more vehicles to drive, many more weapons, and many more targets. Anyone with a PS2 or Xbox must get GTA, it is the best game that has ever hit the shelves

Grand Theft Auto Double Pack

Grand Theft Auto Double Pack

Strengths: GTA Vice City

Weakness: GTA 3

GTA 3 is pathetic! GTA Vice city is awesome. The rock station with "lower it" is the best station i listen to. "lower it" is my favorite song.

Grand Theft Auto Double Pack

Strengths: Just about everything about this game is great.

Weakness: The music on the radio stadions kind of sucks, but you can customize your soundtrack.

This game is great. I have never been so addicted to any one video game before, I love GTA 3 so much that it was hard to stop playing long enough to start playing Vice City.

Grand Theft Auto Double Pack

Strengths: Super storyline. The sound is super, get alot of songs on the nine radio stations.

Weakness: just a bit with the graphics, but is still impressive.

Just brought the GTAIII and Vice City double pack yesterday, and I can't stop playing. The songs on the nine radio station plays 80's songs which I love. The port from the PS2 is super, the graphic is very cleaner. I think is better that the PS2 version. The storyline of mixing violence, drugs, sex, money, this is a classic game that all xbox owners must own. Also, it is two games for the price of one, can't beat that. I

Grand Theft Auto Double Pack

Strengths: Definitely awesome now that XBOX has these games, I don't own a PS2 but have played them on it and in my opinion, again, XBOX blows PS2 away! Responds & Loads Quicker Too!

Weakness: Still as with all GTA games, I would like to see the real names of the cars right away, but, if that's all I can complain about, not a big deal!

If you have an XBOX and have played either of these games before or any GTA whether it is on the PC or the Playstation...this is worth the buy! Plus...2 Games for the price of one??? The game is fun and I've only had it for 2 days but it is a blast. Lots of different vehicles to steal, good missions! The controls are fairly easy and can be customized, always a plus. What can possibly be better than stealing cars and beating people up and the mob and all that great stuff tied into a video game??? BUY THIS GAME!

Grand Theft Auto Double Pack

Strengths: A must-have for the XBox, being a criminal is much too much fun, graphics are a nice upgrade on the XBox, retro flavor is irresistable

Weakness: None at all

If you haven't picked up this version of the GTA series for the XBox, you're missing two of the best games the XBox has to offer.

The graphics are a nice upgrade from the PS/2 version, not quite as good as the PC, but it shows off the system well.

The throwback feel to the 70's and 80's is too good to resist, and there's a certain guilty pleasure about the criminal things you get to do.

The replay value is off the charts. Without question, every XBox owner needs to get this pair of games.

Grand Theft Auto Double Pack

Strengths: Great, fun gameplay and controls. Beautiful games!!!

Weakness: Graphics could be a little better.

Grand Theft Auto Double Pack is the greatest combo of games ever to come out on Xbox. Both Grand Theft Auto 3 and Grand Theft Auto: Vice City are extraordinary games with pretty good graphics, awesome gameplay, and great storylines. I've been waiting a long time for these games to finally come out on Xbox, and when they finally did, I was determined to get them! And they are great buys too: two games in one. I love it!

Grand Theft Auto Double Pack

Strengths: Awesome games, same as PS2, GTA is probably the best series of Video Games ever made.

Weakness: Violent, some people will not like the amount of violence.

These games are incredible. They are a great deal at whatever price, because the replay value on them is ridiculously good. GTA San Andreas is out now also, comes to XBOX June 7th 2005. BUY IT. =)

Grand Theft Auto Double Pack

Strengths: Fun and better graphics that the PS2 vers.

Weakness: Very very bloody and violent.

This game is fun for older teens and adults. It's fun and addictive but not good for little kids. It has good story lines and gameplay.

A Genre Defining Masterpiece

Strengths: Wide-open gameplay, 2 great games for the price of one, custom soundtracks

Weakness: Graphics are merely average

Xbox fans were certainly delighted when Grand Theft Auto was finally brought to their system of choice. This double pack is an amazing compilation of Grand Theft Auto 3 and Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. Both games offer the wide-open gameplay that has made the series famous. The great thing about these games is that you can pretty much do whatever you want. Sure, you have missions that you must do to progress in the game, but you are not forced to just complete mission after mission. There are so many side quests to do and an entire living city to explore. It's really amazing how much there is to see and do in these games. You'll spend a lot of time playing this double-pack, that's for sure.

The main differences between the PS2 versions of these games and the Xbox versions are slightly improved visuals and custom soundtracks on the Xbox. The graphics are still very average, but being able to use your own music in the game is certainly a big plus.

Overall, this double pack is a great value that will keep you busy for a long time.

Grand Theft Auto Double Pack

Strengths: Improved graphics over PS2, Custom Soundtracks, Gameplay, Story.

Weakness: Targeting system, good but not great visuals, over a year late.

If you're reading this review then you already know what GTA is all about so I'll skip the history lesson. What you probably want to know is should I get this game? YES!!! As a person who played the PS2 versions to death, it was really refreshing to revisit my beloved GTA games again. And now that it's on Xbox, all the graphical sore points have been fixed and this version also has custom soundtracks to boot. I personally liked GTA3 over Vice City but that's just my personal opinion. GTA3 felt like a total revolution in gaming while Vice City felt like more of the same. Even though this Double-Pack is over a year late on Xbox, it was well worth that wait. GTA fanatics can now spend another couple hundred hours exploring a whole new world.

Grand Theft Auto Double Pack

I remember reading an article about RockStar games loyalty to the PS2. In it, RockStar stated that the GTA series would be exclusively for PS2 owners. Apparently, this little agreement had a time limit, and ran out. Now, Microsoft is aiming to profit off of arguably the two biggest console games in history, Grand Theft Auto III and Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. In order to compensate for the...

Grand Theft Auto Double Pack (xbox)

What's better than runnin' over pedestrians, stickin' it to the mob, and blowing up police cars -- all while jammin' to your favorite tunes? That's right, nothing! And as an Xbox owner you can now join in on all that wholesome fun your PS2 and PC friends have been lording over your head for the past couple years. Better, you can do it in what is arguably the best version of both Grand Theft Auto...
