GTA Vice City- New Screens and Info! |
Ó

I bet you guys have been waiting for news about the eagerly anticipated Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, and why not? The first game on the PSP was one of the best-selling titles, and knowing Rockstar, it would be foolish to expect anything but greatness. Well, we've got some news and info which you guys might be happy to look at. All these details were published in Gamepro, an Australian gaming mag. Firstly, here are the screenshots I'm talking about.


And finally, the details about the game and its story:
- You'll be playing as Victor Vance - Lance's brother.
- Victor, and his brother Lance, will be playing a big part in Vice City Stories. He's seen in the opening scene of GTA: Vice City, as he get killed by a SWAT team.
- The game takes place in 1984 - two years before GTA: Vice City
- Victor is a 28 year-old US Marine
- Players can now take on the water of Vice City With jet ski's!
- The animations are more life-like and is a ''step-up from previous titles in the series''
- A multiplayer feature similar to the PSP version of LCS is in the game
- VCS is ''much, much bigger than Vice City''
- Some landmarks are half-built or yet to be refurbished to their state circa 1986
- There's new or altered locations and buildings
- All new vehicles and weapons
- You can fly helicopters!
- Radio stations from Vice City make a return
- New weather effects that could include hurricanes
- You can swim in the game!
- Bikes handle better than before
- There's also no more seamless exterior-to-interior gameplay as seen in LCS (There'll be a slight loading time)
- A new addition in Vice City is the chunder-wheel, which you can ride in first-person view!
- Binoculars is in the game
- LCS is ''rookie first-gen PSP title compared to VCS''
- Draw distance is great and is said to be better than Vice City on PS2
- Trip skips make a return (If you die or get busted a taxi will take you back to the location where you received the mission from)
- New animations which give both the lead characters and pedestrians a whole new degree of humanity
- Far richer color palette that brings sunsets to all new levels of beauty, and realism
- Increased density of pedestrians, cars and objects
- Reduction in clumping (where groups of the same model type appear together)
- Far more interiors that its predecessors
- So far there's no word on character and vehicle customization, as well as wall climbing.

THIS IS THE ULTIMATE GTA!!!
IT REACHES THE SAN ANDREAS LEVEL!!!
If you'll be able to customize you're character, it will be PERFECT for the PSP. But if not, then just add climbing. Climbing is cool. Makes it easier to escape AND more realistic.

Clearly the devs are putting major effort into this game to have such features and all you can talk about is being able to play it for free.
I will definately want to be finding a way to play this through Devhook but I will also be purchasing a copy simply to show my support. This game will be worth buying whether you can get it for free or not.

As for VCS, it's looking to be a great game, unlike LCS (man, that game bored the crap out of me!). I must say, Vice City is my favourite location so far, far more enjoyable than Liberty City without the unmanageable map size of San Andreas.

If devhook is not emulating the required fw, I will just have to wait for it to come out PS2 because I'm very sure it will. All you morons bragging about iso's, stfu and quit ruining the homebrew scene. On second thought, downloading it for evaluation only might be ok.

This looks like its going to be a big game and will probably require a 2gig.
But then Rock* are by far the best game developers of the PSP, providing the best 2 games so far. Are you guys going to buy the game to show our appreciation to Rock*?
Weve all said here in this discussion how Rock* pwn etc etc etc cant we at least give them their due and buy the damn thing?
Nuff said.

Lance cannot die, since he's alive in vice city.
This doesn't make sense...

Okay, since we're playing as victor, we can assume he DOES NOT die in the opening scene.

No of course victor does'nt !!!! He dies two years later in the original vice city in the drug deal at the start of the game!
