The latest Entertainment Software Rating Board listing update has revealed that Grand Theft Auto 3 and Grand Theft Auto: Vice City are coming to the Playstation 3. Sony Computer Entertainment is being listed as the publisher for both games, making it extremely likely that they are PS2 Classic re-releases on the Playstation Network. You can check out some screens from the two games in the slideshow to the left of this article.

Grand Theft Auto 3 was first released for the Playstation 2 in North America on October 22, 2001. It received an M (for Mature) rating by the ESRB due to blood, strong language and violence. Grand Theft Auto: Vice City then followed in October 27, 2002. The sequel got an M (for Mature) rating as a result of contents relating to blood, gore, strong language, strong sexual content and violence.

It is unknown when will Grand Theft Auto 3 and Grand Theft Auto: Vice City be released for the Playstation 3.

I still demand a San Andreas remake in glorious new detail (not new design!) and native multiplayer etc...

SA for iOS? I can clear all my games folders then and play SA all day long! (Y)

SA = Best 3D GTA title of them all!

Might have to give Vice City a go, never did put more than 1-2 hours in originally.

Sadly the GTA games age terribly, when I first played Vice City it was absolutely amazing, it was one of my favourite games, I then made the mistake of replaying it a few months ago and well it was terrible same with GTA 3, they're just so dull and boring, it's a shame you never played it properly you'll never be able to appreciate it for the great game it is. :(

San Andreas never aged with me!

Although I'll give you it was "freshest at the time back then". :)

I still have all my GTA games and have tossed VC into my PS3 on a few occassions and still enjoyed it, though granted I'm sure a lot of that was nostalgia. Put an insane amount of hours into that game when it came out, easily my favorite GTA game released. Meanwhile I've had GTA4 since release and still have not beat that game at all.

So it looks like GTA 3 will soon be on every device known to man, that's awesome.

I'm curious to see if they do a 360 and Wii version :p

MS never removed backwards compat so just get the xbox versions of gta3, vice and san.

I played gta3, VC and SA for a ridiculous amount of hours they were just so much fun, yet GTA 4 I completed it then never went back it just wasn't fun enough it took it self way to seriously.

    • Yes, it was amusing at the time because even then dbrand was well known for stealing the designs of products from other companies. That’s what they do.
    • Didn’t Dbrand once complain that Casetify was ripping off their designs a well? seems pretty bad of them to try and get around Valve’s copyright this way with that in mind.
    • Dbrand thought they could get away with this Steam Machine case, Valve disagreed by David Uzondu Image via Dbrand Dbrand has cancelled its highly anticipated Companion Cube enclosure for the Valve Steam Machine, which it teased back in November of last year with a concept render and sign-up page, because it did not ask Valve for permission first before manufacturing the case. According to Dbrand, it took the "backwards approach" of building the product first before asking for permission from the copyright holder. Seven months of work went into the project, requiring over a thousand engineering hours from the design team. Workers developed forty-four sets of injection molding tools, making a unique mold for each sub-component of the crate. When the Companion Cube went live on Monday last week, it, according to Dbrand, quickly became the second-fastest-selling product in the company's fifteen-year history, racking up orders for hundreds of thousands of units. Customers eagerly bought the $129.95 deluxe edition or the bare-bones $99.95 version, which the manufacturer cheekily branded as the "Poverty Cube". It was around this time that the legal eagles at Valve descended on the accessory maker with a formal demand. The developer pointed out that the iconic block design remains protected intellectual property from the game Portal, so unlicensed sales had to stop. Dbrand said that all its pleas to salvage the project with the Valve team, including proposals to run a properly licensed release under official terms "with their blessing", fell on deaf ears, so it had no choice but to obey and remove every trace of the product from the internet. If you bought the enclosure, the company said that banks will process your refund by the end of this week, but if it still hasn't arrived in your account by then, you should not hesitate to contact support. The Steam Machine itself is a high-performance console that Valve designed directly to bring PC gaming into the living room. It was announced on 12th November 2025 (the same day Dbrand announced the Cube) and runs on the Linux-based SteamOS, the same OS that powers the Steam Deck. As for the price, due to the shortage of memory and storage chips, the hardware cost landed much higher than people were expecting, starting at $1,049 for the 512 model (without a controller) or $1,128 with the new gamepad. The premium 2 TB model pushes those prices even higher, selling at $1,349 for the standalone console and hitting $1,428 if you want the bundle.
