We're sorry, but due to the overwhelming response this download has received we have had to limit the number of concurrent connections. Please try again later by simply clicking the link you received via email again. You may have better luck at off-peak times such as early morning or late night hours.

I don't think I'd consider 10am a peak time... Doesn't really matter anyways, Grand Theft Auto 2 is still the best out of the series, and I have it :P

gta 1 .
gta2 doesnt even want to work under XP.
and it multiiplaye in it was very bad.
 blow up a car and watch the game go agaisnt 0.2 fps
and the only fun world was the second.
the first 1 had stronger cops.
and at this moment im actually playing gta3 or better the mod "real gta3"
wich makes every car look like a real car with reall names and reall speeds.
problem with gta3 is when you played it out thee isnt much to do there . exept those timed bonus missions .

I thought three's basic gameplay was too slow, having to stop and stand still just to shoot a gun is no fun. Plus, as you said, it gets boring :|

I never bothered with the Dodo, it seemed rather pointless to me... Unless of course you find the "secret" island exciting  :huh:

I hated the Fast and the Furious, but that's beside the point :P

The secrect island isn't worth the effort really, it's nothing but an invisible spot in the ocean that you can drive on... I would assume there are directions to it on Game Winners (http://www.gamewinners.com) though.

I do still have three, it's unlikely that I'll ever get rid of it (I tend to horde things until I gather a giant mess, then I do something with it)... I still need to get my hands on Morrowind ;)

Okay, okay. I installed Grand Theft Auto III and put the REAL GTA mod in, it was pretty nice, except it added quite a bit of lag to the game which isn't present without the mod :(

I also came across a muliplayer mod, though I'm far to lazy too try it out... Do you know anything about it?

its still in beta . 0.1 i hought it was.
its 2 players max till now and a 2 player min.
there was something with the cars tha your openent was always driving with the same car as yours or something.
but i havent really got the change the see it myself .
although i thought they said that they where gonna include ctf and cannonballrun in it :)
(cannonballrun = awesome in gta. ctf = could be cool in gta  )
