Rockstar has done it once again, making a game so foul, violent, and addictive it's impossible to avoid it. Grand Theft Auto: Vice City is the follow-up to the Best Selling Game of the Year in 2001: Grand Theft Auto 3 and its obvious that this game is even more bloody, sadistic, and crazy than GTA3. Fans could not wait to purchase and play this game the first day it came out because it was so addictive, capturing the player and holding him hostage as he raced through streets with cops hot on his trail and people all around. What makes this game so spectacular is its do-whatever-you-want format. If you want to just beat the game by helping mob bosses get their money, then that's fine. But any single time you feel bored you can choose to do almost anything, whether its stealing cars and running over people or simply vandalizing police cars and beating up the cops. Grand Theft Auto: Vice City also features a variety of new cars all with an 80's style as well as new weapons. What else? You can steal a car and enjoy almost 10 hours of real music and funny ads, all packed into one disc. I think this game spells only two words: MUST BUY!
Screenshots look great.

Though I am a big fan of GTA, I only bought Vice City to go with GTA3. The first few months of playing it was pretty cool. After a while, I got sick of being in the 80's. For some reason I don't mind Liberty City or San Andreas. But Vice City really mames me feel depressed. But it's still a good game above par.

I'm gonna get right to the point. Grand Theft Auto: Vice City is the best installment in the GTA series, including San Andreas. The only real question is whether or not Vice City is the best video game ever made. I know a lot of people are already upset with this review, thinking how dare I say Vice City is better than San Andreas. Well here's why...
First, Vice City's graphics are far, far superior to the graphics of San Andreas. I was very disappointed with the sloppy graphics and lack of detail to buildings and vehicles in San Andreas. Even the biggest supporter of San Andreas would have to concede that Rockstar really cut corners regarding graphics. I fully expect sequels to progressively enhance graphics, not move in reverse.
Second, Vice City has a far superior soundtrack. Third, Vice City has much better missions and overall plot than San Andreas.
Having said all this, Vice City is a superb gaming experience. Set in a fictional Miami in 1986, your objective is to become Vice City's criminal kingpin and eventually settle the score with your backstabbing former associates from Liberty City. Along the way you'll meet a variety of interesting characters, including a Scottish punk rock band, a Cuban mamacita and her military father, and acquire various properties, such as a nightclub, a porn studio, a seaport, and a taxi cab service.
The graphics and attention to detail are second-to-none, as the ocean waters sparkle and reflect sunlight, leaves on palm trees sway in the wind, and clouds roll across the skies. Visually, the game is the most beautiful of any I've ever seen. If you're old enough to have experienced the 1980s like I am, then Vice City will certainly bring back plenty of memories. I'm talking the like of striped Adidas jumpsuits, beta machines, LP records, pastel suits, and the whole "bigger is better" approach to just about anything and everything.
As with all GTA games, Vice City takes a satircal, tongue-in-cheek look at popular American culture, and since the Cold War technically still raged throughout the 1980s, the game takes plenty of potshots at the "red scare" jingoism of Reagan-era America. One of the most hilarious commercials in the game is a radio advertisement for a movie called "Destroyer" that is obviously a parody of First Blood and Rambo Part II.
Grand Theft Auto: Vice City is, hands down, my favorite video game of all-time. They really need to follow up on Vice City with another 1980s-based GTA installment.
as good as san andreas

Ok, I know the game came out like 4 years ago, but I am just getting around to writing a review about it now because even after 4 years, its still so good. San Andreas is out now, but I like this game better because the campaighn is that good. Definatly one of the best campaighns out there. Tommy Vercetti is alot cooler than Carl Johnson. CJ really has alot to learn befor he is as bad*** as Tommy. The environment in VC is not nearly as big a SA, but the campaighn is way better. At first, the campaighn is pretty long, but then once you do it a second time around, you wip through it so fast its not funny. yet its still so satisfying. The soundtrack in VC is alot better than SA too because there is not 1 song in VC that I hate. But in SA, there is plenty that are so annoying, like creed. but it does have some Guns N Roses in it, ill give it that. But dude, just get this game if you dont already have it, you wont regret.
