Editorial Reviews :
Released for the PlayStation2 console last October, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City had the distinct honor of becoming the undisputed bestselling video game of 2002. The game's Miami Vice looks, hit soundtrack, well-told criminal story, and open-ended gameplay made Vice City a hit with gamers. The criminal theme and voice work by Ray Liotta, Burt Reynolds, Dennis Hopper, Tom Sizemore, and other Hollywood actors made Vice City a hit with an entertainment society already in love with The Sopranos and other crime dramas. The unflinching violence, adult themes, and heart-pounding crime simulations made Vice City a hit with the media and politicians. Love it or hate it, it can't be denied that Vice City represents the pinnacle of game design--as measured by both sales and fun factor.
This PC version will possess enhanced features, including improved graphics and sound, additional PC controls, and several options for players to customize the game.
'We felt that we had to truly outdo ourselves when it came to developing Grand Theft Auto: Vice City and felt that we owed it to the fans to continue to keep enhancing and delivering the gameplay, cinematic graphics, production values, and audio experience that have become synonymous with the Grand Theft Auto franchise,' said Sam Houser, president of Rockstar Games. 'We are truly humbled by the response that the game has received so far and are extremely excited to showcase Grand Theft Auto: Vice City on the PC.'
'The real beauty behind Grand Theft Auto is not only the freedom that it allows the players, but also the freedom that it has given us as developers,' added Leslie Benzies, president of Rockstar North. 'The open-ended, nonlinear world of Grand Theft Auto allows us to stretch the limits of our imaginations by giving us an open canvas to work with. This was especially the case when it came to creating Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. The '80s fashion styles, music, and sensibility fueled our creativity to the fullest. We are extremely excited for the PC world to experience the fruits of our labor when the enhanced version of the game is released this spring.'
Buyer Reviews :
What can I say? GTA3 was an awesome game and Vice City is even better. If you thought you had freedom and power in GTA3, well, you're even bigger and badder in Vice City. Personally, I love all the modifications and additions that were made. The motorcycles and helicopters are so sweet and there are neat special effects (for example, when it's rainy, it's harder to stop your motorcycle as it tends to slide).
The missions are as fun as hell and although some are kinda challenging, they're usually worth it. After completing a series of missions, you can acquire property/businesses and start generating profits. I love the storyline and the fact that Tommy actually talks now... allowing you to gain power and respect. (You can also dress up in different outfits in accordance with your missions.)
Let's see... what else? OH! The graphics!! They're pretty sweet. The graphics are awesome (with the exception of a few of the characters during cut-in scenes) and I didn't have any problem running the game on my Win2k SP3, 1.2 Ghz Celeron machine with 384 meg ram and GeForce 4 Mx 420 (64 meg).
All in all, this is one of the best games out there with hours of gaming fun. Even if you have already completed the missions, you can have endless fun walking around and testing the power of your chainsaws, knives, or swords on other people. (It is addicting, though, so you might not want to start playing it if you have a lot of work to do.) If you're into games that let you do what you want, GET THIS GAME!
