To be honest, my experience in GTA is sooooooooooooo long ago. I skipped the parts between GTA 3 (on the good ol' PS2) and this one, but just recently had fond flashbacks of the first part, with its super-speedy top-down gameplay, which today would qualify as a game you play in between games for me, with its feeling of "Just start and play it a little". When I got GTA 3 I didn't really know what to expect, with its sudden change to 3D, but I loved it, especially those moments when I turned on the car radio or switched its channel to hear my favorite music that I didn't expect to find in the game. That memory also makes me immensely look forward to the feature in this one, to have your own station. :)
 
GTA San Andreas.. the master piece.. i really liked that game and it was awesome.. the story.. but mostly it was fun to go around with the jetpack and kill everybody :))
 
For me my favorite experience would be when I was playing gta v on the ps3 and I started glitching out as I was falling out of a plane (very entertaining) I ended up not dying :)
 
"All we had to do, was follow the damn train, CJ!"
-Big Smoke, GTA: SA

The amount of anger and pain was immeasurable, and it felt like the greatest success ever when I finally beat it.
 
Grand Theft Auto is a dream that come true in my life. When i was 12 years old i buy GTA III! I saved my money for that, and cancelled my school picnic!
When i started to play GTA III! It was amaze me, like i love the all trains in GTA, but GTA III was set in Liberty City so the train in GTA III was different, but in GTA III there is no feature to drive the train, so i only dream of seating in the train...when GTA IV comes up i was most curious of it train, and we all know that GTA IV is also set in liberty city, so i start to playing it, and when i go to the station and try do drive the train, IT WAS FAIL! I'm so nervous on that day, so i think i wll drive train in Rockstar Games next installment of GTA...
So the time has come after 5 years and 3 delays of GTA V PC! i am waiting from the first trailer of GTA V...and dying to drive the train!!!!!
 
My favorite GTA moment was when i first played the mission "Hotdogs sind Menschen" in GTA2 which translates to "Hotdogs are people", where you have to pick up some gang members by bus and unload them onto a huge conveyor belt of a sausage factory and later drive the hotdog car into the gangs territory, so that these guys unknowingly eat their own gangmembers. Also: when i managed to follow the "god damn" train on my first try after my friends told me how hard this mission is. :)
 
I remember my cousin and I re-enacted Harry Potter in San Andreas with the flying car cheat. It was probably the most fun I've ever had playing a video game.
 
Stepping out into the new, exciting 3D!!!!! world of GTA 3 was incredible!

Never before had a game really give you this kind of immersion and license to just go wild on the open world...at least not to this youngster.

Stealing cars, firing all manner of weapons at whatever I wanted, doing intense, well written and exciting missions to collect cash, pissing off the cops to see how long you could survive x stars, racing around town feeling like you almost certainly own the place!

From there on in it just got better and better and better, till we wondered how much better can it actually get?

With each new release, the question is answered and at the same time asked again.

Thank you Rockstar!
 
My favourite GTA Moment when I was playing in GTA San Andreas in a World War 3 server, the war actually looked a real life one, me and my friend were on a car trying to drive away from a tank. the tank guy got out of the tank since it was too slow and took a bike following me with the rest of the other team, we literally kept driving to the forest and separated them apart and we killed them, it was so fun :)
 
Playing the original GTA hot-seat with my friend from next door. You played until you died and tried to rack up as many points running over lines of orange pedestrians or used cheats to get guns and blow up as many cars as possible before the cops took you out in a blaze of glory.

Oh yeah. I think their were missions in their somewhere too.
 
Me and my friend were playing GTA 5 on his PS4. We flew around the map sniping players for an hour or so, before getting shot down but a MG mounted on a truck. Very fun game, hope i can play this on PC.
 
GTA 3 was really fun. I don't know how many times I stood on the ledge of the police station either a) starting a full blown war with the police or b) typing in the cheat code for the tank over and over until the street was flooded with tanks and laughing hysterically at the mayhem they caused.
 
Oh man, the memories I have from GTA:Vice City. Playing at a friend's house because my Pentium 3 wouldn't play it...
Also, LAN Houses that had the game was considered top tier here and was expensive as hell, so I've played the first hour of GTA:VC for hours (either on my friend's house or at the LAN Houses).

And yet, it was AWESOME.
 
I am an old school gamer. I have played and enjoyed every version of GTA except GTA 4.

I remember playing GTA 2 with my friends in my dorm. We would all be running around shooting and running over each other. It was great fun.

Playing GTA3 was my primary reason for buying a playstation 2. It was awesome having the third person perspective instead of top down. My brother and I spent hours running from the cops and trying to survive the longest with max stars.

Thanks, for reading....
 
Best moment is the original gta. Cop gets out of his car to arrest me and he chased me around the car a few times and I stole the police cruiser and took off. It was epic
 
I remember my first GTA moment, but I don't know which GTA game it was. I was at my cousin's house, who was a couple years older than me, when I played it. I started to drive down the street, but because I was bad at driving games, I accidentally drove onto the sidewalk and heard a scream. In shock, I reversed and saw a corpse lying there with a pool of blood. That got me thinking, and I started to go on my first GTA killing spree, knocking everyone over who didn't have the AI to realize what I was doing. This was a great time for me because I was obviously having so much fun, but it was also a point in my life where I realized that video gaming doesn't have to be all about objectives and stories. GTA taught me that you can sit back, relax, and enjoy the thrill of criminal activity though video games.
 
How about that time I said hello to a police officer as Franklin, and they instantly attempted to arrest me. GTA cops are so racist.
 
Back in my GTA San Andreas days, I used to abuse the cheats to death. My most memorable moment was activating the citizens riot cheat, then taking a hydra to the top of the tallest tower in the city, jumping off, parachuting, then activating the cheat that blew up all the vehicles within a certain area. It was honestly pure chaos.

Prior to that one of my most memorable experiences was in Vice City, where I took a greyhound bus full of people and drove it along the sidewalk all through the city. I am unsure how many people I've run over at this point. May they rest in peace.
 
Uhh Loved gta vice city, and still really enjoy it, but its kinda old tho.. Adventures started way back then, when i was gaming gta vc on PS2, and oh god, that was great. Just rolling thru the city in my tank, and blowing shit up. That was fun.. But still really would like to win a copy of GTA V. 😛
 
Really cool that you guys are doing this, thanks. I've enjoyed pretty much every GTA game and my favorite memory is probably in GTA 4, one night me and a buddy spent all night doing this and laughing like maniacs: we would spawn boats on top of the tall skyscrapers (can't remember how we did it, was a long time ago), place them teetering on the edge of the buildings at the top, plant C4's underneath the back end of the boat, get in the boat then explode the C4's and go flying through the air sitting nonchalantly inside the boat while tumbling all the way to the ground. Another great memory is playing GTA 3 for the first time and experiencing that huge open world... I'd never seen anything like it at the time
 
I played loads of GTA 4 and San Andreas. I always enjoyed the online mods of San Andreas.
Me and my friends were playing on a san andreas server with loads of mods on it. And the admin fooled us in believing that there is a mod installed. And that the mod made it able to spawn Bigfoot in the forests. So we searched for days and after one week searching the admin told us it was a lie... So we were fooled big time! Still it was fun, we tried to scare each other by saying we saw something moving. GTA 4 was also very enjoyable, but it has a less nostalgic feeling for me.
