Review: Who can honestly say they don't know about Grand Theft Auto? Both GTA III and Vice City became monster hits and pop-culture phenomenon last year and in 2001. They were a big reason (perhaps the only one) that Sony's PlayStation 2 pulled ahead in the console war against its rival, the Microsoft XBOX. When it was selling so well on the platform, an XBOX edition seemed a distant dream but its here now, and boy was it worth the wait!

As a gamer who never owned a PlayStation 2, when I saw this incredible title that almost made me purchase a console just so I could play it appear on the XBOX shelf, I was both shocked and incredibly happy. I hadnt seen a review of this game but I didn't need to and I brought it straight away on impulse. This is an amazing package. You get two of the best and arguably most incredible games of the past two years all for the price of one! What a brilliant way to bring the GTA series onto the XBOX!

Content wise, there is nothing new here. Apart from the very cool feature of putting your own music onto the soundtrack of the game. The graphics are almost identical but you'll find an improved frame rate on the XBOX version. Baisically, there isnt much else to say. If like me you never had the pleasure of owning these titles on the Sony machine, than this is an absoloute MUST purchase. Every gamer needs this game in thier collection, and with this unrivaled XBOX version there really is no excuse. Dont give it a second thought, just get it.
