Favorite GTA moment

[Goldeneye103X2]

From the original GTA, to GTA IV multiplayer tell me a moment during a GTA game which made you love the game even more. Anything GTA allowed.

Its not very original, but my favourite bit was the bank heist in GTA4. that was just awesome

 

[silentbob150]

I think I'll have to second the bank heist. Fairly long mission, but remaining incredibly exciting and gloriously fun throughout, but, due to the new style of combat, it never became frustrating like it would've been in previous incarnations.

Blowing up police cars with the new physics engine is just damn fine stuff as well.

It's got to be when, in GTA4, I'd just stolen some guy's car and he tried to steal it back off me, but I drove off when he was still holding on to the handle. I dragged that guy for about 4 blocks at high speed, with him screaming all the way, before he finally fell off. Genius.

My favorite is climbing on top of buildings and rolling grenades into the cop cars parked below....I once caught four cop cars in a chain explosion that way....unfortunately, that was more fun than achieving any of the missions.

Stealing a stationwagon, putting it into reverse, then running over the person you stole the stationwagon from.

The first time my mate played the game he got completely over killed. He was on a motorbike and got hit off at high speeds by being hit by a cop car. He was killed instantly because he was on low health, but his corpse was hurled off of the bridge he was on and landed on a railway track about 20 feet below as a train came and crushed him. All the time still being shot by the cops. I just pointed and loled.

I'd have to say it was within the first 5 minutes of starting playing, and I started a fistfight in the street and it ended up with me versus like 5 guys and one of 'em pulls out a gun and I ran for my life and tried to take cover behind a mailbox and realized I still had no fucking idea how to play.

...I think I survived but it wasn't a particularly pleasant experience. Damn those controls were hard to get used to.

The mssion in 4 where you steal the helicopter, someone hung onto the copter for about two whole minutes, which was enough to let me float to a very high point a watch as he finally fell into oblivion.

and jumping out of high speed choppers is fun

 

[Reep]

Exploding a bunch of cars and resulting in the death of many people, then the medics show up and ignore the injured citizens and decide to line up for a hamburger.

 

[Copter400]

Strange, I would have thought that someone would mention the 'Hot Coffee' mod by now.

 

[Hellion25]

Hmm well I always enjoyed taking ransom vehicles up to the top of Mt Chiliad in San Andreas and then jumping them off. Took a hearse up once and actually landed the jump to. It was awesome

Also on GTAIV I took a bike up to that roundabout near the park (I don't remember place names as I haven't played for ages but its the place that has a hill leading up to it that you can use as a jump to get through the centre instead of going round). Anyways I take a bike and do the jump through the middle thing and land the front wheel right on some poor sods head.

Then there was the time I managed a back flip on a faggio from driving into a bollard at about 2mph.

when Kate died, i hated that prude.

 

[polymath]

Playing GTA IV I set off a massive chain reaction of exploding cars and then it comes up at the bottom '188 flying rats left in Liberty City'

 

[LivemeLifefree]

My favorite is in SA when my brother and I got the jetpack and we flew from each building past the tallest one possible then he jumped out of the jet pack and CJ said,"I hate gravty!"

 

[nikomas1]

Don't think im strange for this but... When i first got a gun and shot someone in GTA4, Well all I can say is that i love those physics. I tried counting how many differnt reactions i could get.

 

[Amnestic]

GTA4 multiplayer, free mode.

Was a bit of a murder-fest. Everyone shooting everyone. I'd grabbed one of the military choppers, as had another person. We both pitched towards each other, just before we collided I pulled up. His rotor blades smashed into the bottom of my chopper and disintegrated. He crashed and died, I flew away fine. I felt awesome

 

[asleep at the comp]

when i was playing the 4th at my friends house and was being chased by the cops and threw my car off the edge while trying to get out the car exploded and all the shrapnel flew into my chest while i fell into the water

 

[Smiles]

Urgh! I hate the bank hiest, I dont want to do it! but I have no other way now of making the game move ahead...

pretty much, most of what you guys have mentioned I've run into... It's my favorite game ATM

 

[wewontdie11]

In free mode I was flying a chopper at full speed with three of my comrades in the passenger seats over one of the rivers between the islands. I jumped from the cockpit and landed safely in the water leaving my friends inside the chopper to crash and explode into a skyscraper killing them all.

Sweet.
