With the introduction of crouching in GTA Vice City, the player can run behind shorter objects that are otherwise useless in [[Grand Theft Auto III|GTA III]] so the player's body is less exposed to gunfire. This is especially advantageous on the PC version where the bullets travel to the crosshair and not obstructed by barriers usually experienced using the console or classic controls. Powerful weapons that can only be targeted in first-person view in the console or classic controls are extremely useful in the PC version, being able to target in third person view. GTA San Andreas added the additional ability to move and roll dodge while crouching. | With the introduction of crouching in GTA Vice City, the player can run behind shorter objects that are otherwise useless in [[Grand Theft Auto III|GTA III]] so the player's body is less exposed to gunfire.
