Does anybody still play Vice City?


I got really bored one day and I installed Vice City on computer again. I thought I play this little bit for nostalgic reasons and now I'm almost through with all the story missions. Though the GTA IV has the greatest graphics ever I'm still very fond of VC. I can't believe it that this game came out 8 years ago!

Still play it. The feel of the city, the great songs, funny missions, shows in the radio. It still retained its fun factor even after all these years.

I've never played it again since finishing it like 7 years ago. VC has the best ambiance, best time period and the best soundtrack. It has, however, also the worst map of all GTA's. Vice city is completely flat (as Miami actually is) and I think it's not a good thing for a game that features so much driving. Even beyond that fact, the layout of the map is just not very interesting in my opinion. Even GTA 3 had a better map. Of course SA has the best map of all though and GTA IV has the most realistic one. My favorite GTA still remains San Andreas because it completely anhiliates the other GTAs in terms of size and variety of missions and things to do. It's a real "sandbox" game. I don't think i'd like another GTA set in vice city but i'd LOVE another one set in the 80's. Vice City is very nostalgic to me still since it is the first GTA I saw in action but I played GTA III first. I have great memories of all GTA games. Well...maybe not as much of GTA IV, partly because it's still very recent in my mind, having only finally played it through about a year ago, but really...while it is a GOOD game to me it is not as great as the ones that came before. I hope GTA V is more like SA was.

Just finished playing the game maybe a month ago. I'm not what you'd call a "gamer", so getting 100% was a point of pride.

In less than a year, this game will be ten years old, but I'm not sick of it. I'm sure I'll find myself giving it another go before October.

Evil just messed with the wrong hombre.

Sold my copy when I moved into my first apartment back in 2005 to help pay for the deposit. I've been wanting to play again for months, as this was always my favorite, so I downloaded it onto my macbook when amazon had older download titles on sale last week.

I've only gotten to play a handful of missions, but I had forgotten how awesome this game is. I can't wait to get home this evening and spend the weekend playing.

This game was IT in 02/03. I played it to death but for reasons of laziness/missing out initially, I never did the missions because my brother did them (at least to a point before putting in "Complete Game" cheat - whack).

A couple years ago, I went and bought GTA 3/Vice City/San Andreas triple pack for my PS2. I completed all missions at the time but recently have gotten back into it because I'm only 67% done and I want to find all Hidden Packages (got 90, by myself, yeah) and tie up any other loose ends - though it ain't to easy.

I LOVE all the music on the game, too. The radio stations are a total package in themselves - frickin' excellent.

I still love this game - not much of a gamer so this one ranks #1 for me. I went out and got Vice City Stories as well - looking forward to finishing it.

I recently got a twinge of nostalgia and started playing some GTA. Just completed San Andreas a few days ago and now I'm working through Vice City. Just got to the stage where you can start buying assets.

YES I'm actually just playing my copy of it on the PS2 for the first time, only need San Andreas to have the complete set. Have GTAIII(x2)and the PC version, Liberty City Stories, Vice City, Vice City Stories
