Grand Theft Auto 3 turned 20 recently! (Feel old yet?) Celebrating in true Ulti.Asia fashion, we have compiled some of the best memes spanning the franchise so you can laugh your hearts out – just remember that nothing stops the train while doing so.
Strap in, buckle up and drive (un)safely because here we go again down memory lane.
- Life imitates art
What do Paris Hilton and GTA have in common? Being icons of the 2000s. That’s why we can’t help but wonder if this was an intentional move. Coincidence? We think not.
2. Just like the simulations
With arguably the most iconic line in the franchise, Big Smoke makes one thing clear: Follow the damn train, no matter what. Perhaps the railway staff in Mumbai took it too seriously?
3. NPCs? More like talking speedbumps.
Come on, this is GTA! If you aren’t driving around dangerously, causing mayhem all around you, you aren’t doing things right. Just make sure you don’t translate this reckless driving into real life, ok?
4. It’s been eight years, Rockstar! EIGHT!
Yep, GTA 5 was released in 2013, leaving fans craving for more for the past eight years. In these eight years, some have grown up, some have gotten married, and some even had kids. Well, at least we know our great, great grandchildren will be enjoying the same game as us. Talk about a classic!
5. Ah sh*t, here we go again
Hey, it may be a dead meme but you can’t deny how good of a format it is. In fact, it perfectly encapsulates the GTA franchise: Wacky, foul-mouthed and definitely memorable. That’s why we love you, GTA (but please release GTA 6 already!)
