There was one mission in GTA 3 where you had to honk your horn outside of someone’s apartment and I just had absolutely no idea that there were L3 or R3 buttons on a PS2 controller. Hardstuck for days.
That’s so funny to me, because I can’t imagine playing a GTA game without honking the horn to the beat of the music playing on the radio every time I’m in a car. It’s part of the GTA experience for me. (Imagine my joy when I heard that “beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep” song for the first time in GTA V!)
Hell, that reminds me of when I first got a GameCube and was disappointed that the sticks didn’t click in like they did on the PS1…
Lol I remember that frustration too, thanks for the flashback. You only had to click it for like a millisecond too it was the shortest honk and the game would progress hah.
When I was a teen, I had a friend call me on the phone one Friday evening to help him beat a Donkey Kong Country level because he knew I had the Nintendo Player’s Guide.
We spent 30 minutes troubleshooting that shit. One of my best experiences as a child.

Remember you had to ask a person when you were stuck in a game? Pepperidge Farm remembers.
I remember buying hint books or calling the developer’s tip hotline directly.

There was a time where the only way to beat the Water Temple was to ask that one kid in school to come over to your house to do it for you.
