The news of the day in the world of videogames is undoubtedly the announcement of Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy, Pack with Remasterizations of GTA III, Vice City and San Andreas with multiple graphics and playable. It will be released on all platforms (PLAYSTATION, XBOX, SWITCH and PC) in November, with physical format in December.
20 years ago, one October 22, 2001 , the news of the day was similar: GTA III was launched in PlayStation 2. The Grand Theft Auto saga was already known at all, above all by the controversies Around the violence and adult content of these DMA Design games.
However, GTA III was a point and apart not only in the series or in the DMA Company, which would soon be Rockstar, but in the history of video games. It was the first in 3D , and although there were already other games with large and open environments with a multitude of things to do, none approached what GTA 3 offered.
It was an overwhelming sales success, selling 14 million copies on PS2 (then was overcome by San Andreas, a few years later). For all he gave of himself, we can affirm with rotundity that was a game that changed the world .

For Sony, GTA 3 was also one of the reasons why P S2 took off until the best-selling console in history (came out on PC and Xbox but years later). Therefore, since the official account of PlayStation have remembered this logo, which is sure many will also remember.
Rotary Icon of GTA III will be forever recorded in our memory, although soon we can add new memories with GTA The Trilogy. In addition, GTA III can be played separately at PS Now.
It is true that GTA III or San Andreas figures are ridiculous with those of GTA V , which accumulates more than 130 million of units sold, without these being braked, but quite the opposite, selling more year after year.
Do you want to play the remasterizations of GTA 3 (and Vice City and San Andreas, their sequelae in the generation of PS2? If so, prepare by remembering the GTA 3 tricks, those who probably read at that time in The pages of Hobby Consoles.
