[@fenrillratz9890]

Discover? In europe we knew that since beginn and some where hunting those versions. :) it is also documented on the internet since back then. But maybe for americans it was harder to see? I don't know. Even it's the worst of the 3d aera games, i still play it from time to time. It showed, in wich way it will go and without it, we didn't had all the others. In my opinion, it still playes well. Sure. Some stuff aged not as well, but it aged good enough, compaired to 90s first 3d games. (Except stuff like nintendo games. Nintendo nailed 3d games kinda from the start. Otherwhise, mario 64 would not be played but whatever. I miss the topic here.) Have a nice one!😊

Sorry but gta 3 is the most overrated gta game.

[@Manic_Panic]

I completed 1.40 once and I was surprised at the end being stuck at 98%. The other things I noticed I was the Bomb Da Base cutscene counting as a mission, the camera in the stunt jump, the mention of terrorists in Kingdom Come and Catalina's dialogue at the end. I thought the I designed the PS2 guy was in every version and I discovered the absence of the checkpoint sounds much later. Overall, would not recommend this build as outside of Catalina's extra line, the PS2 guy and the new Dodo flight path, there is nothing particularly interesting and it's just more buggy.

[@tomasplunksnis1087]

There’s actually a way to get 100% at the PAL v1.40 version - complete Paramedic Level 12 a total of 3 times!

It's a good thing that they went back and did an adjustment to the leones from having shotguns and pistols to just uzis and pistols in the Big 'N Veiny mission in 1.60, since they are absurdly powerful outside of missions.

[@DeadYorick]

You're incorrect about the building in Chinatown. It wasn't there was a smaller building. There originally wasn't a building there at all but a road that connected Chinatown to Hepburn heights. There was originally a main drag that ran all the way down Portland from the Callahan Bridge to the crusher. (which is where the "Go to the bank off the main drag" line comes from in the bank job mission for Joey Leone). According to a former Rockstar developer they had to rearrange the buildings and add the alleyway in to slow the player down because if the player drove a fast car down it they would start noticing the buildings struggling to load in quickly enough. They said they fixed these streaming asset issues by the time they made GTA San Andreas where they no longer had this issue.

[@MattJ155]

In Vadim's video here, he shows an image of a lower building at this spot on the map: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mau9gWBppryma8Usi=Jq2Xd183tXXgSSAW I'm not saying you're wrong though, rather that this area potentially went through several changes during development.

It did however change to a smaller building though as seen in the e3 promo when the cars had antennas.

[@Wyte_Knight]

Oh. Seems like I had the 1.40. I vividly remember raging of not being able to skip the death/wasted cutscenes, as I had no memory card and thus couldn't save. It was a French version of the game, too!

[@AdisPlays]

I know 1,40 is quite rare but it’s still possible to come by if you’re lucky and just keep looking online by private sellers. I spent around an hour by just going through the different auctions by zooming in on the disc to check if the # wasn’t present and it was around 2% of the discs. And the good thing about the UK is that you can tell it easily tell by the disc, but on EU copies it might be harder because some copies look the same like 1,60 and the only way to tell is to buy it and put it inside your PC and open the file to see if it’s 1,40 or 1,60 so that’s a good thing to keep in mind. The fun thing was that when I bought the 1,40 disc the seller got surprised it got bought because there were other auctions for much cheaper and they still had the MAP in the box. If only he knew 😂

[@nonoo3793]

Those versions are not worth anything... Glad you're happy with your find though.

[@minmogrovingstrongandhealthy]

@@nonoo3793 pretty much, I pirated them all due to only one reason (for the most part) and that is censorship, there is so many releases in Europe and most of them had different censoring and removals going on to the point I got fed up and never bothered to own any originals rather the pirate releases that are uncensored on top of that they have extra files attached that can be salvaged

[@chriscollins550]

[@LNCRFT]

2:34 The latter one isn't Italian though, it's a German promo release. Only Germany had the "GTA III" logo on the cover, in the intro and on PC in the main menu as well.

[@PSXDRIVERPLAYERBSTH]

Finnish PS2 pressings have the normal cover, but also "GTA III" written on it instead of the usual, and it's also in the case spine and in the disc. The usual "#" trick with the disc to identify v1.40 and v1.60 still does the trick though.

[@poy110]

France had the same cover that Germany had

[@luiswazhere]

16:04 that is absolutely insane

[@alexishanes6162]

You already know the reason why they changed that

[@TerminatorZXY]

It's because they didn't change the plane's path until much later when the city's skyline was different in the beta, so over there it will look like it's flying through buildings that didn't exist when that path was made.

[@PSXDRIVERPLAYERBSTH]

I've heard that there are some stealth versions of v1.60 as discs which lack the sign "#", surefire way to know which variant one has is to check it with a PC, opening the "SYSTEM" -file to Notepad (I wonder if that was done on those promos seen briefly). It tells what revision it is. I have both v1.40 and v1.60, the first one as "/EURO" disc, since I'm not in the UK. I recall the other v1.60 is "/UK#" and the other is just "#" - two of these are Finnish packagings. This is because there's 3 different map designs with the game. Also the v1.40 normal completion is accurately around 98.7%. Because the game expects you to do two more things (calculate the ratio between expectations and what there is brings you 154/156 if I recall this right). Doing the ambulance missions over and over, this can be achieved as that objective point is never disabled after completing it. With this, you can actually get even more than 100% in v1.40 though. (Also why are people in these comments saying Firefighter has to be done only once somewhere, it has to be done once on each island to reach 100%, dammit.)

[@EverythingAboutGTA3]

I remember one thing but keep in mind I'm not sure if I remember this correctly and if this is a difference between PS2 1.40 and PS2 1.60, or difference between PC 1.0 vs 1.1. I remember there was a difference in the mission script where in one version (probably the old one), the mission "Kingdom Come" would not be unlocked until the mission "Grand Theft Aero" is completed. In terms of lore this makes more sense because during the final cutscene (when Claude returns to the construction site) that's when Catalina learns that Claude is actually still alive (remember how she says in a surprise "You!? I left you pouring your heart out into the gutter."). Then the rest is clear - she teams up with King Courtney to come up with this plan to blow Claude up. But don't take my word for it as I might be remembering something wrong. If anybody has more info on this please feel free to comment ;)

Pretty sure this is just a misconception made up by GTA III's Chain Game author, Arsen over at GTAForums and was debunked.

[@TerminatorZXY]

17:06 - The thing is, there's a reason why this is the case, and ironically the same bug that prevents you from reaching 100%, you can "abuse" the similar bug to also get 100%. The catch is: To complete the game at 100%, you need to complete the Paramedic missions - 12 levels in a row - 3 times. So basically 2 more additional times compared to normal. You can do it on any island however. I've done this, to make it less boring I completed it on each island. If someone wants my save I can provide. The reason it will be stuck at 98% is because, well, let me explain. In GTA 3 (and similarly in all 3D era games), you get the same % for each task complete, let's call them "percentage checkpoint". E.g. you get one each mission you pass, each side mission you pass, each stunt jump, each import/export mission, every 10 hidden packages etc. The total amount of these "percentage checkpoints" is 154, so you get roughly ~0.649% per each checkpoint. However in version 1.40, 100% completion requires 156 completion checkpoints when only 154 are actually attainable, and each checkpoint is actually worth a little less in this version, ~0.641%. How does it happen? Well the Paramedic missions are slightly bugged when it comes to this, this still partially remains in the final version. It was supposed to give out 3 total "percentage checkpoints" but it only gives out 1, by completing level 12. The two bugged "percentage checkpoints" are supposed to appear here: • When you complete level 8 OR even just rescue 43 patients - i.e. when get the health pickup reward at your safehouse. • When you rescue 78 patients - i.e. when you get the adrenaline pickup at your safehouse. And the third one that actually works, and works too well (I will explain why), like I said, is when you complete level 12. I don't know the exact reason why they are bugged, but my theory is that he game rewarding the player health/adrenaline makes the counter think it's a "percentage checkpoint", but they weren't supposed to be so, so no percentage is given to the player. Maybe a developer oversight. And either way they're pointless because you wouldn't be able to get the final one because it requires you to complete level 12 anyway (which you need to do in one sitting). Anyway, the reason why it works too well, is that there's another percentage bug in it, which you can use in your favor on the version 1.40. As I said, you have to complete the Paramedic missions two additional times to get 100%. But it doesn't end there. Actually you can keep going infinitely, the mission will keep giving you the "percentage checkpoint" and you can use it to get over 100%. And this still prevalent in the version 1.60, but it's gonna be extremely rare that anyone wants to replay that awful mission on their save so not many people even tried. And if you do complete it ONE time, your percentage won't change - it will be 100.649% internally, but the game will still just display it as 100% because the game rounds it always to the lower number. You would need to do it twice to actually see 101%, which makes it even less likely. The reason why this happens is whoever did the code. forgot to make it so that the "percentage checkpoint" is only given out once, the first time you complete 12 levels, and not again. Nothing in the game checks if you've completed it already, so it gives it to you again.

One difference I noticed is that some rampages that appear in two locations only appear in one location in v1.40. I don’t know if this is the case for every rampage of this type, but I noticed a few of them are like this at least. It makes some of them considerably harder as you have to start them from a location that makes them more difficult to complete.

[@real_cooki3]

I had a PS2 version where planes in the airport (the ones that land and take off) would explode on impact if hit by a car, that was probably version 1.40

I think your second promo is not an italien one. It has the german age rating infront. Btw. I own the 1.40 Version. I wont sell it, because i am a collector myself. (Not only gta) Before i watching the movie to the end (adhd, i didn't wanted to forget about the age rating thing), i just wanted to say: I was so annoyed back then. Early videos showed the blue police cars. In the damn intro they where blue. XD Ingame black then. I felt kinda betrayed. I loved the blue design back then. And as teen, it annoyed me without end. Even i still love the game till now.

Ok so I never completed GTA3 to 100% back in 2001, and I never understood why. I did everything. I 100% had this version. It broke though. The disc got scratched.

This comment is not directly related to the differences between versions 1.40 and 1.60 of GTA 3. However it is; what I believe at least to be beta content which so far I’ve not seen anyone cover on GTA 3. To see this mystery beta content, you’ll need to perform the Harwood car crusher ghost car bug. Apologies in advance for any ambiguity in my instructions from here on because the building does not have a name as far as I know. Drive to Staunton Island and head towards the east side of Belville park. When viewed from overhead there are two roads that form a V shape, between these two roads there’s a building and contained within is something interesting. If you’re still unsure about which building I’m referring to, it actually features on the thumbnail on one of your videos; the GTA 3 (PS2) One Fact About Every Mission video and it’s the building on the right hand side of the thumbnail. Assuming you’ve managed to find this building, using your ghost car drive in the building and you’ll find what appears to be a very crudely modelled interior. The walls are blue and untextured and the floor texture corresponds to floor texture outside the building. But there are holes in the wall which correspond roughly to the windows of the from outside of the building and you can see outside the interior. It appears there was some very preliminary work being done to give this building an interior. Whats even more interesting is that in this area of the map (in fact I think most of Staunton is like this, but I checked and all other buildings in this immediate area are like this) if you drive through the walls of buildings using the ghost car, there isn’t even a floor on the inside! Driving into these buildings leads to a floorless hole that drops straight into blue hell! So having a fully rended 3D interior with some attempt at making working windows in this area is even more astonishing! And even more indicative that this building had a purpose beyond just set dressing the area. I should say that I’ve only tried this on the IOS version of the game, some years ago. Whenever I’ve played the game on the PC, I’m usually more preoccupied with playing it as oppose to arsing around bugs and glitches! Obviously if this is the remains of some beta content, this is quite exciting. But what’s even more exciting is trying to work out what this may have been used for, as interiors featured most heavily in GTA 3 in missions and in particular mission cutscenes. So what could have gone on in this building? Was it used on a cut mission? Was it a base for a cut character even? As I say, I’ve never seen or heard this interior mentioned and I think it high time it got some attention! I think it’d make an interesting video exploring the interior and inviting the community to discuss what it might have been used for!

@@mrdoofa9357 Thanks for the comment! Interesting read! I think the building you're referring to is the 'Flatiron Building'. At least, that's what it's called in real life. On the PS2 version, I think I've been inside it before and didn't see any remnants of an interior. Although it does have a floor, like you say. I've not checked it on other versions of the game though. Also sometimes a traffic car can spawn inside it for some reason, which seems to happen more on the PC version from what I've seen.
