Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories



Scheduled to hit PSP this October on the 17th for the US and 20th for Europe.

First details and screenshots will be released in the next couple of weeks but information so far is that it'll feature new characters and storylines with some familair faces and locations. Heck the boxart looks like it has Robina and "Big" Mitch on it.

Vice City is my favourite title in the GTA series so I'm stoked for this but hopefully VCS isn't as lacking in features as Liberty City Stories was.

Details are coming out for VCS as the print mags have the exclusive:
  • Vic Vance is the main character. He's a 28 year old Marine and brother to Lance Vance in Vice City.
  • VCS takes place in 1984, 2 years before Vice City.
  • The city in VCS is in "a different stage of development."
  • VCS will also be a much bigger game than Vice City on the PS2 boasting more polygons, greater draw distances and more variety of cars and pedestrians on the screen.
  • New weather effects.
  • Animations have greatly improved, even to the extent that they're "life like" according to GamePro.
  • Likewise for facial animations for conveying emotions.
  • VCS will feature multiplayer modes but Rockstar are tight lipped about that one until September.
  • Missions are now no longer "Go from A to B" but designed to be multi-tiered and spliit up by skill set.
  • More in-depth missions using the environment.
  • Planes and helicopters are back.
  • New ability: Jumping between vehicles.
  • New car physics.
  • Improved controls.

That strikes me kind of odd considering it was possible to fly the Dodo for a considerable amount of time and get some good air doing so, unless the reason is referring to some of the larger buildings and skyscrapers...?

VCS is definitely on my list though as Vice City is pretty much favourite in the series and when you combine the atmosphere of Vice City with the features and gameplay of San Andreas....Well it's pretty much impossible to resist.

Also you can swim in VCS and one of the new weather changes are...hurricanes. Vic Vance was also in Vice City at the beginning who ends up being killed.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
