This week sees the release of another PlayStation 2 classic for the PlayStation 3—Grand Theft Auto III, the first GTA game on the PS2.

Released in 2001, Grand Theft Auto III was the very first full 3D game in the series. Set in Liberty City, it put you in the shoes of a criminal named Claude, who starts to work his way up the crime ladder after escaping a prison transfer.

Late last year, Take 2 also released a version of Grand Theft Auto III for iOS and Android devices, priced at $5.
