I play videogames since I was a young kid and the first time I touched this game I was about 7/8 years old and din't have a PS2 yet. However, the revolutionary gameplay, the liberty that the game gave me, continued in my mind for years, until I could buy this console (many years later) and the game and finally play the one game that made me dream about it. It's a classic, if you don't believe it, just play it and think how can such a game could be done in that time. Long life for R* and the GTA series!
