Grand Theft Auto III

???
I have no idea how I convinced my mom to let me play this game but I somehow did. I recall needing to have this game to play. Stealing cars? A big world to drive around in? People to shoot? Cool! And when I got it that's exactly what I did. I definitely didn't understand a lot of the adult themes (haha prostitutes will have sex with you) and I definitely didn't follow the story (which is why I never finished) but I had a grand time nonetheless. This was my gateway to the series which I would go on to finish the story in every game afterwards (except 5 I guess lol).
