Vice City Stories - more details |
Ó

Veterans will note that like Liberty City Stories, the Vice City in Rockstar Game's GTA: Vice City Stories is the same corrupt, oh-so-wet town they know and love. The place is two years younger though, but there's no big change. Most of the routes and the shortcuts in the game should be recognizable. The criminal scene itself, is a different story though. Apparently in '84 the drug cartels are still starting up and Vic is still a bit of a newbie.
Now onto the gameplay. Benjamin Turner of Gamespy notes that during his play-test he noticed that instead of short discrete missions (the ones found in LCS), Vice City Stories seems like it is returning to the more involved multi-part missions on the console GTAs.
He also notes that the game's engine has been tweaked compared to GTA: LCS. It has twice as many polygons onscreen, the horizon distance is twice as far, it should have better streaming, less pop-ins, and fewer pauses for loading. The faster streaming even allows for the return of aerial vehicles like helicopters. It almost looks like the PS2 incarnations.
However, it's not all positive as Turner does say that he finds the gun aiming system a bit awkward. The camera was also a bit of a problem as there is no button to quickly snap it to Vic's back. Overall, the faults are pretty minor. Vice City Stories is set entertain by the end of this month.

FIRST *****ES!!!
Second!!
I hope a Cheat Device is made :-) @1: Wow your so cool :-|
OMFG WOW IM SO COOL BECAUSE IM FIRSTY!! I cannot wait for this game.
I hope everyone *****ing reads this because I am so tired of all the idiots who are so happy they get first, or second, or whatever number post: GETTING THE FIRST POST ONLY MATTERS IF YOU HAVE SOMETHING MEANINGFUL TO SAY! The early posts are the ones more people will read, and if you actually have something important you want to say about the news item, then it matters. If you just say "First post, woo hooray" or some ***** you look like a COMPLETE idiot. *****ing mother *****ing *****ers.
i cant wait,i cant wait,i cant wait
OMG WORSHIP ME!! Ok, spamming aside, I can't wait for a Cheat Device.
-twice as many polygons onscreen -horizon distance is twice as far Thats great news. longer missions could be good and bad (longer game is all I wanted from LCS) but have to play it first. Since LCS is one of the best (if not the best) all around psp games to date, I have high hopes for this one.

when is this coming out?
"Vice City Stories is set entertain by the end of this month." You idiot, Pete.
will there be planes in this one
The only reason why people do the first post announcements are simply to annoy others. When people like number 5 respond angrily, all it does is encourage them more and show that they suceeded in pissing you off some what. We should just ignore them or better yet, the QJ.net Mods could do their job and add some kind of method to automatically delete or disallow posts that contain those words or are too short (or both.) Now back on topic, what really interests me about Vice City Stories is the improved draw distance which will make driving at speed easier and the increased polygon count. I simply cannot wait for this game and when it is released, it will change the Psp scene forever.
I know that in LCS it camera always seems to go back to Toni's back automatically. If this isn't the case in VCS, I'm pissed.
cant...wait....anymore...this is going to be the best game!!!
also I hope theres a new eLoader, and a Cheat Device.
what does that mean, more polygons on screen?
HELL YEAHH!! This game looks sweet as hell btw.
Dude its funny when they say that they got the first post and the end up getting in the 5 post..... Like that idiot in the in the post number 4..
#20, it was a joke. I saw that people had gotten first, and was making fun of them. I'm not that stupid.
OMG W00t LAST!
HAHAHAAHAH
the only thing gayer than first posters is people complaining about it.
