Grand Theft Auto: Vice City for PlayStation 2

Pros: A Buttload of freedom!
Cons: Didn't I play this last year?

If you somehow managed to never play Grand Theft Auto 3 this last year... then there is no doubt this game will thrill you to no end. However, while this game is technically superior to last years installment, I can't help but feel that not enough has...

Pros: Replay value: 100-110 hours; Gritty detail and genuine quality
Cons: Aiming still a bit off; camera could use a little work

If you were to ask me what game is going to steal me with the most hours this Christmas, it's going to easily be either be Vice City or SOCOM. I do not know how Rockstar pulled off another blockbuster hit after last year, but who am I to be complaining?...

Pros: Incredible gameplay, graphics, AI, and a gnarly 80's soundtrack
Cons: The glare! There are only 24 hours in a day to play it

I bought GTA: VC the day it came out at Best Buy for $40, knowing that this game did not need to be insulted by being rented before purchased. Boy was I right. This game improves on what was previously thought "unimprovable." The graphics are better, the...

Pros: The most fun I've ever had playing a game. The story, characters, and setting. Sweet.
Cons: I haven't found any.

This is the best game I've ever played. Not because you can beat up people, crash cars, and just go insane with destroying the town. It’s the best game ever because of the freedom and the story. It's a great gangster story. The mob wants Tommy g ...

Pros: New city, New cars and featuring Motorcycles,Boats, and Airplanes
Cons: Losing money when you die

When you play Vice city its not the same as GTA3 (Grand Theft Auto 3). You are in new World of a fictional place of Miami (it reminds you of Miami Vice) Which is in daytime now. Many cars roll by you and you can just take when with a press of a button....

Pros: Lots of cool new stuff to ride, do, and shoot.
Cons: Lots of sucky new stuff like bugs, poor AI, and bad missions.

I have played 100 hours on GTA3. I know that game backwards, forwards and all the good stuff. About 99% of that time was spent messing with the man, running from the law and killing lots of baddies. It was a hoot! Before I bought VC I was under the...

Pros: Large open environments, More Cars, Better music and voice acting, better missions
Cons: Buggy, some control issues, doesn’t have same magic as GTA3

Well this game is a tough one to review for a couple of reasons because 1) its the sequel to GTA3 2) ...

Pros: Very interactive game with many expansions off of GTA3
Cons: Not suitable for kids under 18, can get boring after a while...

Well it has happened...after a long period of rest we finally got what we had all been waiting for...Grand Theft Auto: Vice City! This game has had people talking for quite some time before it was even released, and I know that I was one of the first in...

Pros: Tons of missions, weapons, and vehicles. Gameplay allows you to go at your own pace.
Cons: Swearing may be inappropriate for younger children. Other than that not to many cons.

The Grand Theft Auto series are my favorite games ever. I have always enjoyed the freedom that the game itself allows you to have. It gives you the freedom to drive pretty much whatever you want. Whether you want to drive a motorcycle, car, bus, ...

Pros: Same as GTA 3 - plenty of freedom
Cons: Same as GTA 3 - plenty of inconsistency

GTA Vice City is a combination action / role playing game. Well . . . it’s not really so much an action-packed, role-playing *game*, as it is an action-packed, role-playing *claptrap*.

Allow me to clarify: according to the American...

Pros: Stylish, immersive, plus motorcycles!
Cons: Poor AI, many dumb missions, homophobic

Grand Theft Auto: Vice City is entertaining and immersive, with a kickass eighties soundtrack, and all the elements that made Grand Theft Auto III such a ground-breaking and fun title. But, I've got quite a few complaints that may affect your buying...

Pros: Much greater interaction with the game world
Cons: Too few missions as part of the main storyline

I played GTA3. I reviewed GTA3. And believe me, Vice City is no GTA3.

I preordered Vice City after hearing all the hype, and I picked up my copy as soon as it hit the stores.

And I can safely say that no, Vice City is no GTA3....

Pros: New Weapons, Boats, Helicopters.
Cons: Not much as a mockup of GTA3 with less new features.

Here are one of the many reasons I don't like Vice City. Hell, I'll tell you all the reasons. GRAPHICS The graphics are average for a PS2 game, I know It's an old game, But they could of added reflections and bumpmapping to the game. Even ...

Pros: Looks good, lots to do, GREAT 80s music
Cons: Poor controls, stupid missions, terrible AI, practically pointless

I had heard so much about Grand Theft Auto: Vice City that I finally had to break down and get it with the extra $50 that was burning a hole in my pocket for so long. Whew, was that a long sentence or what?

Okay, here's some things to remember...

Pros: Improved graphics. Great storylines. Plenty of freedom.
Cons: Game bends rules in order to artificially boost difficulty level.

This game is a major improvement over GTA3, but still many problem areas remain. It's a good game, but hardly the best. It's highly overrated, in my opinion, and here's why --

First of all, the camera angles frequently get confused -- even...
