GTA III is the start of my written guides. This page introduces it.
Opening Cutscene
You are Claude Speed and you are robbing a bank with the Columbian Cartel leader - Catalina, who is also your girlfriend. You are quickly on the scene and Catalina kicks the back door down. As you open fire on a CCTV Camera, Catalina shoots one of her assisstants, and you stumble in her path. Momentarily Catalina says she's an ambitious girl and you are small time, and she puts a Pistol bullet inside you. You are left for dead.
You survive and make a recovery in hospital, but you are sent to court. There is a lot of evidence against you, thus getting you found guilty. The jail sentence is 10 years in Liberty Penitentiary. So, Claude's future looks bleak as he heads over the Callahan Bridge.
But the Cartel strike again. They found out you survived, and so they leave a bomb on the bridge to detonate. A 4x4 stops the car and holds up the guards, and take one of the convicts. Since the guards are distracted, a guy called 8-Ball knocks the guard out cold. You trip over a guard and escape. The bomb detonates, but you got out of the blast radius, and survive yet another attack.
Opening Mission
This mission is easy so there is no detail. Just head over to the hideout in the car, and go to the next place. You will meet Luigi Goterelli, the most powerful pimp in town. He has a girl that needs picking up from the clinic, so pick her up and drop her off. The reward is $1500.
