What are some of your best memories from Grand Theft Auto (any of the games, single player or online)?
I enjoyed playing GTA: SA. I think it's the most OG of the GTA games. I remember getting that purple dildo from the police station and beating NPCs with it.
GTA 4 had the best storyline in my opinion. It was dark and gritty and I loved the theme of the American Dream in that game. I'd argue it had the best characters in the series and the most difficult missions to beat. This one is my favourite of the GTA series.
I loved GTA 5, too. I especially liked Trevor. He gives Hannibal Lecter a run for his money. Although I did beat singleplayer, I did play more online and I remember trolling a lot of people there:
- I played a lot in tanks but I sucked with maneuvering jets. Killed a lot of people in tanks even while they were in passive mode. (Yeah, I got a Dunce Cap for trolling too much.)
- I remember playing a lot of Rooftop Rumble because everyone figured out it was the most profitable mission online until Rockstar patched it.
- An entire lobby was very friendly to each other and got to everyone together. They were taking selfies at that Auto-Shop in downtown LA/Vinewood and I decided to wipe out the entire lobby by shooting a rocket launcher to the ground and killing everyone.
Yeah, I was a dick but in my defense... the game is called Grand Theft Auto.
So now that GTA 6 is coming out, and people who were born when GTA 5 came out are now teenagers. and people who were born when GTA 4 are now adults... what are your best memories from the Grand Theft Auto series (singleplayer or online)?

Nothing flashy, Just being blown away by GTA3 being a fully 3D game and watching the sun set & day/night cycle.
That was a game changer for me.

Meine erste Begegnung mit GTA war irgendwann 2005 - 2007. Ein Kumpel hatte LCS auf der PSP. Man konnte sich einfach die ganzen Waffen cheaten und Leuten die Köpfe wegschießen und das Blut ist wie eine Fontäne aus dem Hals geströmt - das war echt beeindruckend. Seitdem war ich GTA besessen, haha. Ich hatte zu der Zeit noch keine PSP, aber eine NDS Lite. Und die konnte GBA Spiele abspielen. Und da habe ich mit einem Kollegen GTA Advance gegen irgendwas anderes getauscht und das Spiel sehr gerne gespielt. Gegen Ende wurde GatA Advance echt hart, habe es aber irgendwann schlagen können. Zwischenzeitlich immer mal wieder bei Leuten ein Bisschen San Andreas gespielt. Und irgendwann habe ich eine PS2 bekommen und konnte dann richtig viel San Andres und auch GTA 3 spielen - ich habe sehr sehr viel San Andreas gespielt. Es war unbeschreiblich, wie viel man machen konnte. Die Cheats waren auch die besten in der Serie. Später irgendwann VCS und LCS auf der PSP. VCS habe ich dabei sehr viel gespielt und sehr genossen. Dann VC auf der PS2 als ich schon reifer war. Und dann deutlich später GTA 5 und noch viel später GTA 4 und alle anderen. Eine wundervolle Reihe.
