Since the Playstation 4 version runs on a built-in PS2 emulator. You can also consider this video to be "GTA 3 PC VS PS4". However there might be some minor differences, since we don't know which PS2 game revision is stored inside.
You forgot about radar being slightly different, especially in south-west side of the staunton island, I'm referering the quarter of a round, that area of 'kingdom come' mission happened. IDK about other areas of the city, but ptobably there,'s differences also. In PS2, that area looks like this: www.grandtheftwiki.com/images/StauntonIsland-GTALCS-map.jpg with side roads of that area shown. (I couldn't find a GTA 3 map, so I brought a GTA LCS map but it doesn't matter, since it refers correctly exactly what area I'm trying to say.) On PC, it looks like this: www.gtavision.com/images/content/iii_map/gtaiii_staunton_island_map_hq.jpg with no side roads shown. Also, why you delayed the part 3 video for 2 years :/
On PC, the safehouse icons are purple, and the AmmuNation (gun) icon is green. On PS2, the safehouse icons are green, and the gun icon is white. I think the car bomb garage is different too.
That's actually a lot of random objects they left out of the PS2 version. Nothing essential on the one hand, but on the other all of these objects combined give some extra detail to the environment. Some of these locations look kind of empty on PS2. Perhaps, the system was having issues with data streaming. It's been a while since I played the PS2 version of GTA3 in particular but I remember that GTA SA had trouble keeping up with streaming in objects and textures if you were driving a really fast car.
***** Here is a short preview showing the difference between the slow walking style on PC compared to PS2: GTA3: Difference between PS2 and PC slow walking animation In the description there are also screenshots showing the difference between the stadium gate textures
J* Games Indeed, there are some differences. I left a note for myself, but I have never managed to check it. Moreover, the "check list" with the differences becomes bigger and bigger, so there will be part 3 in the near future. As always, thanks for the magnificent clue!
Well generally aplha/beta version of all games is better than the final version.. The final version is worst because they have to be charge of hardware limitations so they must remove many things
Catalina has a different head model in the PS2 version, i honestly think that this model is better than that of later versions like PC and the Improved editions.
Hey Vadim M ! Nice video comparison ! I just wanted to show you something, maybe you will use it for the third part of the comparison or in the second part of the GTA III Beta analysis. Anyway, in this old GTA III for PS2 trailer (GTA 3 Trailer) at the beginning of the trailer, we can see the texture from GTA III PC on the train and Catalina model from the Xbox/PC version. In another video (I can't find the link, sorry) and in the E3 2001 demo, we can see that the color of the HUD is like on the PC and Xbox version (and we can also see the objetcs from the props.ini files). We can clearly see on both videos that the game is in beta (blue police cars, beta vehicles...) but it could mean that the changes made in the PC/Xbox version are from the beta/alpha. Maybe because the PC and Xbox ports were created at the same time than the PS2 version, and then they maybe didn't to update the game so it could be like the PS2 release ? Or maybe they thought these textures/models were better and didn't want to change ? I don't really know, I just wanted to show you this.
I'm not sure if those pre-release/alpha screenshots are valid comparisons as they are most likely doctored. When GTA III was released most gaming media was still in magazines instead of the internet, and screenshots were edited to make them more suitable for printing (and to catch the eye of the gamers).
На ПК в катсцене миссии Bomb Da Base в самом начале добавили одну фразу Сальваторе. Вообще для аудио катсцен произвели тотальный ремастеринг - добавили новые звуки и спецэффекты, все реплики свели к единому качеству, убрав контраст.
Great! I see we have more junk on the streets on PC version. Also some additional fences and objects. Cool! As you compared the welcoming text size I would like to add that the FONT overall is different in PS2 version. In those welcoming texts but also on the stats. It has more shadow and letters looks more bold!
@Paul Bell Pardon me. English is not my strongest language. What I meant was, ironic. Same name ss the Alan Walker guy who also makes music 20yrs after Allan did.
Could you do part 3 because left some things such as: the propeller of the dodo is different, and in versions of PS2 and Xbox , you could mount prostitutes in the vehicle , the gait of the character not only with heavy weapons I think. .. And also the names of some missions (just a suggestion) ....
Can you make comparison videos for GTA 3/VC/SA on Xbox vs PC/PS2? growing up I only played the Xbox versions of these games, and from this video the Xbox GTA 3 seems to use the best of both PC and PS2 versions apart from no shooting off limbs, and seems mostly to be using the PC version. The menu is different to both, and the Xbox doesn't have loading screens, it's the always same image with a loading bar from what I remember.
когда велась разработка альфа-бета версии,работали на движом, миссиями и так далее.А потом начали заниматься оптимизацией ,тогда и начали удалять объекты с карты.Чтобы игра стабильно работала.В видео альфы или беты,можно видеть как игра проседает .
They changed the police cars during the intro video in the PAL version of the game because it looked like the same police cars they used while the terrorists are attacking or else they get copyright issues
Hi, thanks for kind words. I don't know how to describe it. I simply filmed short video, special for you. Maybe you will find it useful. Look at description for link to your video.
thing about the load screens on the PC is that they go by quick cause the PC version loads things faster. You might see them for a split second and thats it. You see that happen on really beefy PC's.
Should be. I remember just watching three different loadscreens (depending on what island you are) and it appeared only when you load your game for first time (Portland loadscreen with El Burro, Kenji, Misty, 8-Ball, Staunton with loadscreen of Donald Love, Asuka, others, and Shoreside loadscreen with Miguel and Catalina). Also when you go from one island to other using the bridge or tunnel, it appears some loadscreen for half a second
God i wonder how they would have optimized GTA III's Liberty city if they would've been able to. of course "Look at future gta games lol" but like with the style and technology they had, i bet if they had a bit more powerful stuff back then it would've looked also more like the Ghost Town, which is quite detailed.
Great game. I switched to pc Xbox and Ps2. On such a small screen you can't see a huge difference between pc full details and Ps2 with poor resolution. I recently turned on a 48 inch tv on ps2 and it looks dramatic.
Maybe GTA Vice City & GTA San Andreas are way greater on ps2,but now after i played GTA III on ps2 and pc i can say that GTA III on pc is 1000000 ways better than on ps2 ....
I think that ps2 couldn't support GTA3 so they decided to stream all files from disc for PS2 version,and maybe that's why some textures remain unused in PS2 version.
"Police vehicles were changed to not look like NYPD because of terrorist attack" - как же надоело снова и снова читать эту чушь про терракты и изменение цвета машин. Машины перекрасили по одной простой причине - игру переделывали в темный стиль и изначально яркие синие полицейские машины под этот финальный темный стиль не подходили, поэтому их перекрасили в черный цвет. Единственное на что повлияли террористические атаки это обложка для US релиза и повод для разработчиков перенести релиз еще на пару недель, ибо игру явно доделывали в последние минуты.

It is going to be in the 3 part.
OK,so do it soon

Absolutely! Funny enough, GTA:SA performance on my modded PS2 improved after I installed the game to the internal hard drive.

" Call the YMCA "
The gate of the cocks stadium is transparent metal on ps2, while on pc its white because of a missing texture.

Car reflection texture is also different between pc and ps2 versions

i agree with you she is way better o tho she looks like san andreas

Seems to me that they thought the PS2 couldn't handle all these extra static objects, so they held it back for the PC and Xbox versions.
Same
It spells "stay tuned", not tooned like you wrote in the end of the video (6:06) but overall, this video is just perfect man.
You forget to mention Claude has a different walk style in PC.
He covered that in part 1
I was talking about his jogging cycle.
I think PS2 is better for speedruns because there are less random junk around.
I'm not sure if those pre-release/alpha screenshots are valid comparisons as they are most likely doctored. When GTA III was released most gaming media was still in magazines instead of the internet, and screenshots were edited to make them more suitable for printing (and to catch the eye of the gamers).

I guess you can say that the vehicle buggy was pretty *buggy*
*facepalms*
5:18 Sound design by Allan Walker. Coincidence? Lol

I'm the only one who noticed a different running style when not sprinting. Check that out :D
Thanks for the information, i will use it for part 3
Does No One Ever Mention Claude Waking Backwards In PC While In PS2 He Turns Around And Walks Forward.
Ps2 has more ambience and feel to it.
4:56 i didnt saw the 6th loadscreen
So there's just one version of PS2 right? Not like Vice City where there's the original with tear gas, then Haitian friendly
yup
Nope
i dont understand why no one talks about claudes jogging style and how thats different
The buggy looks like the BF Bifta from GTA 5's beach bum DLC.
Catalina's hair is different on PS2
wow really awesome comparison bro. like it:-)
5:46 This veicle is present in GTA liberty city.

In ps2 safehouse icon in radar is green instead of pink
2:41 rip PC version
What about menu sounds? I do wonder how many people won't notice this detail.

Vadim M in GTA III mobile in my garage I found a drivable white BF injection
Anyway GTA3 is in our hearts
4:56 I have never seen the loadscreen in the bottom right.
25 and 26 depend on Screen Resolution on PC
Why on my ps2 some things that have the PC version also appear on my ps2?
Hey that link to the picture of the comparison has nothing to do with ps2
Maybe GTA Vice City & GTA San Andreas are way greater on ps2,but now after i played GTA III on ps2 and pc i can say that GTA III on pc is 1000000 ways better than on ps2 ....
I seriously can never go back to auto-aim, it was a busted mechanic. I don't care if the graphics and trails effects were ideally better on PS2.
Where can I find again a ps2 and this game?!
Are you going to do an Xbox one too?
Ps2 graphics is better but pc can load more props , and pc have mouse and keyboard controls wich is better :)
***** that only happens with GTA III... GTA Vice City , San Andreas and IV are better on console , unfortunately :c
