Grand Theft Auto 3:
The sprawling crime epic that changed open-world games forever.
Welcome to Liberty City. Where it all began.

The critically acclaimed blockbuster Grand Theft Auto III brings to life the dark and seedy underworld of Liberty City. With a massive and diverse open world, a wild cast of characters from every walk of life and the freedom to explore at will, Grand Theft Auto III puts the dark, intriguing and ruthless world of crime at your fingertips.

With stellar voice acting, a darkly comic storyline, a stunning soundtrack and revolutionary open-world gameplay, Grand Theft Auto III is the game that defined the open world genre for a generation.

Grand Theft Auto - Vice City:
Welcome to Vice City. Welcome to the 1980s.

From the decade of big hair, excess and pastel suits comes a story of one man's rise to the top of the criminal pile. Vice City, a huge urban sprawl ranging from the beach to the swamps and the glitz to the ghetto, was one of the most varied, complete and alive digital cities ever created. Combining open-world gameplay with a character driven narrative, you arrive in a town brimming with delights and degradation and given the opportunity to take it over as you choose.

Having just made it back onto the streets of Liberty City after a long stretch in maximum security, Tommy Vercetti is sent to Vice City by his old boss, Sonny Forelli. They were understandably nervous about his re-appearance in Liberty City, so a trip down south seemed like a good idea. But all does not go smoothly upon his arrival in the glamorous, hedonistic metropolis of Vice City. He's set up and is left with no money and no merchandise. Sonny wants his money back, but the biker gangs, Cuban gangsters, and corrupt politicians stand in his way. Most of Vice City seems to want Tommy dead. His only answer is to fight back and take over the city himself.

Grand Theft Auto - San Andreas:
Five years ago Carl Johnson escaped from the pressures of life in Los Santos, San Andreas... a city tearing itself apart with gang trouble, drugs and corruption. Where filmstars and millionaires do their best to avoid the dealers and gangbangers.

Now, it's the early 90s. Carl's got to go home. His mother has been murdered, his family has fallen apart and his childhood friends are all heading towards disaster.

On his return to the neighborhood, a couple of corrupt cops frame him for homicide. CJ is forced on a journey that takes him across the entire state of San Andreas, to save his family and to take control of the streets.

What's up with mods?

One good thing about the "The Definitive Edition" is it's using Unreal Engine 4 now. And it's very easy to mod. At the time of the writing tens of different mods are already available and soon there will be thousands of them. I recommend you to follow the following sites for new cool stuff:

Grand.Theft.Auto.The.Trilogy.The.Definitive.Edition.Deftones.Crackfix_V2
Includes support for Windows 7 and fixed keyboard issues for some users.

Before applying Crackfix V2 copy all files from “NoDVD\Deftones Crackfix\”, which will apply old crackfix 1st. This is a necessary step, as Whitee crack uses modified EXEs and Deftones one require unmodified ones, which are localed in “NoDVD\Deftones Crackfix\” along with crack files.

Firstly delete the following files, these files are unnecessary now:
Deftones.asi
orig_socialclub.dll
version.dll
And apply the new crackfix:



Added Windows 7 x64 support. (Tested on Windows 7 SP1 x64, Windows 8 x64, Windows 8.1 x64 and Windows 10)
Fixed the keyboard not working on some Windows installations.
Make sure the game is up to date and all your files are original. Delete the remnants from different cracks, if you are using EXE from different cracks, make sure to USE the original EXE files that are
compatible with your version of the game.
What is Barbra Streisand Edition?
It’s basically the initial release version of the game, which was pulled off the store for a few days to remove data from game packs which should not go public: scripts, scenaries and other super secret stuff. After the hiatus the game was made available for gamers again, but with that content removed and nothing else fixed. One important thing was changed though: developers changed the compression algo they have used on PAK files: instead of old “Deflate” they have switched to “Oodle”, which makes all repacks of newer builds install much slower than for initial game.

As for the naming, you will understand after reading this Wikipedia article:
