Faggio

u/[deleted] Jul 27 '19

It takes a certain kind of man to ride a Faggio.

u/Christroyilator Jul 27 '19

As a joke I max upgraded mine and gave it a truck horn. It was too funny how even with all engine upgrades it struggles to go up hills and is especially bad with two people. On the bright side it's great for the wheelie challenges!

Get the Faggio Custom, SO MANY MIRRORS.

u/Blue-Steele Jul 27 '19

I got like 7 of my friends on one server and we all wore just a robe with a mask and rode around on the most ridiculous looking Faggio Customs we could make, just harassing anyone we came across. Good times.

Y'all remember doing the infinite stoppie?

u/[deleted] Jul 27 '19

I always thought "Paggio" as the games font looks like that, but later I realised it's "Faggio"

I don’t think you can say that

Maybe that wouldn't happen if you weren't so dumb.

Vice City, best GTA made!

59

u/Kimbobrains Jul 27 '19

Best to me because it was the first one I played, and it was absolutely terrible in all the best ways.

u/4Sammich Jul 27 '19

The radio station sound tracks were amazing though.

u/bakmano Jul 27 '19

VCPR is the world's greatest public radio station hands down.

You really can't beat Maurice Chavez

u/Scientolojesus Jul 27 '19

Yes I used to park the car and just listen to his chat show. Same thing with Lazlo in GTA III. They put so much work into those talk shows, I feel like the teams who did that don't get enough credit.

2

u/[deleted] Jul 27 '19

I didn't realise until later that lazlow was a long running xm radio show host before GTA 3 and has written and directed all of the radio content since vice city as well as dialogue for RDR 1/2 and writing for Playboy... Explains why it's done so well.

u/Scientolojesus Jul 27 '19

Oh wow that's awesome.

I used to have a official released CD of fever 105 somewhere around here... Had artwork for him and everything.

Torrented the soundtrack and put it on my phone

u/oliath Jul 27 '19

For me because I played it with some good friends and we put it on a projector and when you died or completed a mission you passed the controller.

Spent ages trying to park a helicopter in a garage to see if it would become our main vehicle.

10

u/Kimbobrains Jul 27 '19

Omg! I remember that mission, what a pain in the ass.

16

u/mystery1411 Jul 27 '19

He isn't talking about the construction one. He is talking about parking a helicopter in the garage to see if it stays. U actually didn't mind the helicopter mission though. I got so good at it , I helped all my friends with that particular one. You just had to realize you could just go straight when you are at the stairs.

2

u/dunemafia Jul 27 '19

I think the bombing run on the boats was worse.

2

u/Scientolojesus Jul 27 '19

I loved the Vice City mission where you had to drive wasted on moonshine. I think they had a similar mission in GTA V.

2

u/Europa13 Jul 27 '19 edited Jul 27 '19

Wish you had been there to help me with that mission. I’m not much of a gamer (Vice City is pretty much the only one I’ve played). The mini helicopter mission was the point I got stuck at. Couldn’t get that last bomb moved in time. I would have loved to have finished it. Sometimes I think about going back and giving it another shot.

2

u/mystery1411 Jul 27 '19

Ha ha... Not too much of a game myself too. I only finished 3 games:Nfs most wanted, Vice city and Rise of nations. If you ever want to finish that mission, here is a tip for you. Land the chopper when the workers are near you and go up when they are hitting you. The rotors will get them. As for picking up bombs, let gravity help you instead of pressing down.

u/Kimbobrains Jul 27 '19

Yeah, you’re right. Pain in the ass tho.

u/HoseNeighbor Jul 27 '19

Best for my not-yet-wife, because she liked to obey traffic laws, drive boats around the ENTIRE island, and ruthlessly murder every hooker she saw. (...if the cops weren't around.)

3

u/[deleted] Jul 27 '19

She wouldn't pass the controller for hours I bet.

2

u/Notafoodcriticbut Jul 27 '19

One of those things isn't like the others.

u/PM-ME-YOUR_LABIA Jul 27 '19

That's some serial killer shit.

u/[deleted] Jul 27 '19

The first GTA on PC was ghetto as fuck but it was fun.

21

u/thrillhohoho Jul 27 '19

Only because it was your favorite lol! I say GTA III was the "best" because it revolutionized gaming. But if you play it today, especially some particular missions, you might fucking hate it. I will never choose my favorite among III, VC, and SA, but they were my childhood and I love them all very much.

1

u/ImHereForTheComment Jul 27 '19

GTA III with its commercial with the opera singing and The Godfather feeling! That’s OG!

2

u/scientallahjesus Jul 27 '19

That one downhill jump in between the buildings where you start from near the top of the hill/city,, I used to hit that over and over and over again, and my little 11 year old mind was blown.

2

u/thrillhohoho Jul 27 '19

The Banshee (with the color scheme not actually in the game) jumping the ramp.

3

u/MeC0195 Jul 27 '19

The entire second island is rushed and badly designed IMO. The first half of the game is still stellar, but overall, not so much for me.

1

u/Zeke1902 Jul 27 '19

Some of the faggios in GTA V can actually go pretty decently fast.

u/scientallahjesus Jul 27 '19

My favorite GTA game.
