Anyone planning on getting Vice City Stories

[Artimus Gigan]

Apparently they're adding alot of new features

Jet skis and Helicopters will be present and available vehicles for riding

You can swim

More complex missions are being introduced

New Weather effects(supposedly like tornados or killer storms)

They incrased the draw distance, so there's less pop-ups and improved the overall graphics so it doesn't look clunky

New Areas like Theme parks and trailer parks are present,a s well as all the under contruction buildings in the original VC are now finished


and no, this one is not being ported to PS2. Rockstar siad it themselves that this is being tailor-made for the PSP and will not be appearing on other systems.

Personally I skipped over the first one because of the lack of new features, but with the vehicles like Jet-kis there's bound to be far more interesting missions and emthods of exploration

I don't like GTA games anymore... I started playing the series with GTA on the PSX, and have gotten every sub-sequent release... By SA, I just didn't care any more. I HATED VC, but SA was solid... I just don't get into the games anymore. I may check it out.

They said the same thing about GTA: LIBERTY CITY STORIES, and it was ported to PS2 about a year later. The same will eventually happen for VICE CITY STORIES. And as disappointed by LCS as my brother and I were, we'll still pick up VCS simply because we love the GTA games (though I doubt they'll ever top SAN ANDREAS). I just hope that, with all the additions they're adding, it'll be better than LCS. (And that they remove the loading screens between sections when it's ultimately ported to PS2.)

I actually skipped over LCS and I'm glad I did. Looks like they put more effort into this one. I also don't beleive them when they say it's gonna stay a PSP exclusive, if it even sells a little they'll be quick to bring it over to the PS2.

I'll probably pick it up for my PSP when it's released, but part of me wants to wait for the eventual SAS. =P

I tried Liberty City Stories for the PS2, and it was weaker than the other games (VC and SA) that I played through.

I will grab VCS, because I like the VC world, once it hits the PS2.

I'm waiting for the inevitable PS2 port.

If it doesn't get ported to PS2, then I guess it'll be the first GTA game I don't play.

The PSP isn't worth one franchise.
