Grand Theft Auto

The Grand Theft Auto series of games are extremely popular and have been subject to a number of articles both for its content and its innovative gameplay. One of the most interesting aspects of the gameplay is the ability to roam freely around the various cityscapes. An article on gamestudies, an online academic journal discusses representations and gameplay in GTA:3 Liberty City. This is perhaps the version of the game that allows the most 'free play'. It is worth reading especially if you have chosen to analyse one of the GTA series for your presentation.

Here is the intros to both GTA: San Andreas and GTA: Vice City. Both show the stereotypes for the era that the games are set in, and set the scene for the games in genre and location...

Also have a look at this clip from film, "Colors" it shows a car chase that wouldn't look out of place in San Andreas!
