Welcome to another addition of 'Yuki Rates'.
I will focus on a longliving Saga (not as long as Final Fantasy), Grand Theft Auto.
Theese games have been a large selection of consoles.
So, what makes this series so playable? Even though its mainly centered around crime, drugs, sex and Gangsters?
Well I think it would be the gameplay, you'll spend ages completing the game first time, and MUCH longer getting to 100%.
The better game of the Series was the Definitive 'San Andreas'. Thoose who have played it would probably agree, it was the first GTA which featured:
Aeroplanes which had proper flight controls
A decent RPG element
the first GTA main character who wasnt white
The ability to Customise your car
a Large selection of weapons
a Wardrobe of clothes which ranged from tops, pants and shoes to Police Uniforms.
'Girlfriends'
AND MUCH MORE!
This version of the game was the better of the series due to these points, If you've played this game the highlight (which i am hopefull you would agree) would be when you flew around in the 'Hydra' or the Harrier. Good fun!
The whole game was very good fun for me, I also loved the RPG aspect they put into it, where you could make your character muscular or as thin as a rake, you could even learn boxing, Kung Fu and Kick Boxing!
There was more properties in this version which started with your mothers home and ended with a large mansion with helipad.
So, why do i make the claim of 'Best GTA game ever'?
Is it the graphics? No, they were pretty terrible imho for the time it was brought out.
Storyline? Yes, the storyline was very good, with the big plot lines beginning early, a large variety of characters like 'Wu-Zi-Mu' the Blind Triad leader, to 'Fido' the mute main character from GTA 3 (so called 'Fido' since thats the only name someone gives him on the game).
Gameplay? EXCELLENT, with a large amount of unlockables and even the cheats made the game fun, unlike most cheats which make the game boring, Cheats are still being found for this game today!

So that would rap this addition up, I would give this game a firm 9.7/10, the only problem is the graphics, a re-make down to the letter with a few more things added in would make this a perfect game.
 
The multiplayer mod is also great. And all of the mods.

Lol, Did you read about the 'Hot Coffee' mod for the PC?
Banned in Australia and several other countries xDDD
They gave a reference to that in GTA IV. There's an achievement for sleeping with someone after a date; "Warm coffee" or something

Lol nice xD
 
i'm going to chime in on this one.

san andreas felt subpar in comparison to the other gta titles released for the III-era.

all of the other titles were smaller than SA, yeah, but had much more attention to detail and were better polished.

SA was just "lol xbox hueg, u can get fat xD". the stat elements ultimately got annoying and unnecessary, the necessities (hunger etc) were a nuisance more than anything.

also, GTAIII's main character is Claude Speed.

it was a good game. definitive for the series? i disagree.
