In early GTA games, money is emphasized as the key to unlocking new areas in the game, but it may also be used in various other activities. The formula was dramatically modified after [[Grand Theft Auto III]], when money was only important for specific missions as the completion of missions unlocks new area instead; the former was removed entirely after [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]]. Since GTA III, the purchase of items and services becomes the primary use of money. | In early GTA games, money is emphasized as the key to unlocking new areas in the game, but it may also be used in various other activities.
