Pros
Pro Never before seen sandbox gameplay
Although some claim that Super Mario 64 was the first game to bring "sandbox" gaming to the masses, GTA 3 was on a completely different level. GTA 3 wasn't just sandbox in map design, but also in the gameplay, allowing players to explore and interact with the world in a way never before seen.
Pro Very optimized for the PS2
It is just so incredible that the game manages to run on a console that has just 32MB of RAM. It can fit a whole universe on this.
Pro A good variety of puzzle types makes sure that the game never repeats or gets tiring
You'll have to find clues, interpret symbols, use correct items in appropriate places to unearth the mystery of the room.
