One of the best moments in say GTA IV for me is the mission Uncle Vlad. I'll never forget it. That guy really pissed me off. Freaking jokel. I was so glad he was gone.
Also the whole GTA IV was much more interesting to me since, Niko and Roman both spoke Serbian.
Roman: They call me the janitor
Niko: Čistač, naravno
That right there was just awesome 😀
 
one of my favorite games of all time was gta san andreas and gta v has the same map so im very interested on playing and enjoying the game. specially the heist
 
Aghh.. I remember the 1st time I played GTA III when my friend brought his PS2 at my home, when I was a kid. I was doing crazy stuff in the game all day back then.

But San Andreas was the game I spent all my childhood 😀 starting from PS2 and moving to PC. I learnt every single secret of the game first hand without internet back then. i even remember typing random stuff on PS2 controller and a Trashmaster spawned once, without even having the actual cheatcode written somewhere lol
Later I started moddding it.. Ahh memories!
GTA still remains my favorite series and GTA IV was a great game too.
 
The first time I stole a vehicle and the passenger stayed in the car. The awkwardness of the car ride to my next objective. 😀 ...


 
GTA Vice City on PS2...When I first unlocked the mansion with the helicopter on the roof. I truly felt like I had stepped into the world of Scarface. Nothing else has come so close to putting me into a movie character's head like that since.
 
the satisfaction from finishing the lap around the airport for the first time back when the game came out after like a month

i was totally surprised how easy it actually was when i played it years later and beat it from the first time
 
played san andreas 8 years ago as a kid, when in cheetah (a sports car in the game) pick up prostitutes and got the car shaking (giggity) but forgot I parked on a railroad track and next thing I knew I woke up at a hospital cause the car got hit by a train passing through and damaged the car to the extent of explosion 😛
 
GTA SA was a very epic game, the story mode is just great and long, I dont remember any specific epic moment, but i remember playing a lot of adicional hours thanks to the mods and the SAMP mod too!, GTA IV was good too, the end was great.
 
My favorite GTA moment was when I finally got GTA 4 to finally recognize my graphics card and I wasn't stuck playing with graphics settings on the lowest setting. Second favorite would be getting iCEnhancer mod up and running. But I've always enjoyed getting to wander around and explore Rockstar's open worlds doing whatever.
 
I think my favorite moment is when I discovered the monster truck cheat for GTA San Andreas. My friend and I spent hours driving around in that game running over every car on the road, only to find the lawn mower on one of the farms where we drove for what felt like an hour to mulholland drive to run over all the rich people with the mower. Good times.
 
The most fun I've had on GTA was in San Andreas. I used to run around and beat people all day. I had a challenge where I tried to survive as long as possible vs the police and crazy pedestrians without actually using guns or anything. Melee or go home!
 
Best moment was in Vice City on PC with the flying cars cheat.... was like Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets flying around!
 
So this story is significant to me as it helped to groom me as a gamer. In GTA 3(PC) you get a mission called Espresso-2-Go! which involves the player having to destroy nine espresso stands littered across the entire map. That mission was the hardest in the game for several reasons, first you had very little time to get it done and you would have to get out of your car with a rocket launcher and blow up the espresso stand, coupled with the fact that you could accidentally shoot a cop and up your wanted level but after the first stand you took down it would cause the owners of the stand to chase you down with automatic weapons throughout the mission. My solution was to get the fastest car(Banshee) and drive like a bat out of hell around the entirety of the city and blow up each stand. This I found was easier said than done as I found I would frequently die or run out of time, I quickly realized I would have to up my game to get past this mission. I then started planning the best route to take throughout the city based on the location of the stands as well as how difficult it would be to outrun the Columbian gang members based on the layout of the city. I however was still failing due the time I was taking to destroy each stand. I then went back to the drawing board and re plotted my route and re evaluated my execution time for each stand,while I was convinced that my strategy was sound my execution was lacking. During this time however I was actually getting better at driving the Banshee and getting a lot more accurate with the rocket launcher. Then one determined night I finally blew that last stand and completed the mission with seconds to spare and shortly after that beat the game(as nothing compared to the challenge of that meeting). The next GTA game I played was Vice City and with the driving skills I picked up in the previous game I made the majority of the money I needed to by all the guns and property I made through racing by making a mockery of the races that were offered when you bought the Car Lot. Nowadays whenever a racing mission in an open world game is giving me problems(and right now those transporter missions in Red Faction Guerilla)I recall Espresso-2-Go and remember that what is in front of me is not that hard.
 
favourite moment...? playing GTAIV on xbox live, loads of players around the 'central park' area. i did the mother of all car crashes... it rolled, it cartwheeled, it flew, it bounced, it rolled again, it exploded.

and not one other person witnessed it...

(runners-up: flicking cars away with a helicopter, and popping heads from as far away as the xbox360 could draw)
 
My favorite moment(s) in GTA San Andreas was when I forced CJ to get fat off food and then spent numerous hours in the gym to get buff.
 
It's so difficult to choose a single moment, there are so many!
I remember that extremely fun San Andreas jetpack... I could spend hours wreaking havok!
 
My favorite memory is using the cheat in GTA: SA where all of the pedestrians have weapons and attack you, my friends and i would play for hours seeing who could survive the longest.
 
If anything it has to be from where it all began......the original GTA, me and my friends would play it for hours a day taking it in turns to do missions and see who could drive for the longest without slowing down till they eventually blew up and seeing who could survive the longest after getting as many stars of police attention as possible.

The game was a massive hit all around and started what we all know today and has grown to be one of the biggest games out there and one of the most loved. I've played them all up until now where I haven't played GTA 5 yet but after waiting all this time for it on the PC from the screenshots it looks to be worth all the waiting. Gouranga!!
 
I recently gotten gt 4. Well, its a lot different from playing GTA vice city on the PS2. A LOT. Long story short, after "trying" to drive ( not use to the mouse camera at all) and after "accedently" running over many people, I fled the cops withe camera going of which way except where I wanted it. It ended it ended in a body of water...
