Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories review - ColourShed 

Lance Vance Dance

Lance: I know a place where you could get high with a brotha and down with a sista...i did

Let's bounce.

Gta: Big Bro City

i kiiled kim in both games HIT AND RUN

Rip :(

Vic never dead in 1986 due to Rockstar didn't think they would make prequel story!

doggydude98 Eh. He was a bit all over the place, character-wise. He’ll want nothing to do with drugs one minute, and the next, he’ll be planing out his drug empire. And he clearly did a lot of drugs. Just look at what happened to him in between games.

Chinatown Wars says hi.

ThatGuyThatWorksAt Sega because its suck as

perhaps rockstar where trying to break the stereotype

Cj

Spencer Whiteway Victor is Dominican.

i guess rockstar wanted to make it to where Italians cant swim. but whats odd is in gta sa every single ped including cops drowns as soon as they hit the water. i never got that

Spencer Whiteway I realized that just now

General Cabbagehead i think better

Yes this game has a better soundtrack

There's quite a few gems in VCS but VC literally has radio stations filled with hits on top of hits.

@@GuiPT88 Yeah but some VCS radio station versions are better than VC. The Rock, Post Disco, Hip Hop and R&B were way better imo

Best soundtracks San Andreas Vice city stories Vice city But I agree V-Rock in Vice city stories is far better than V-Rock in Vice city it feels more like the 80s metal culture radio station that they were aiming for that they didn't quite achieve in the first one

That’s deep bro

I don't know the story so whys that?

Kingrai 15 Vice City Stories is set in 1984, the earliest setting in the whole series. Vic Vance was discharged from the army for running drugs for Jerry Martinez, thus sparking the events that would happen in Vice City and so on..

@@tylerp3327 oh okay, still have to play 3d era games lol.

thats in 3D universe

same here i remember i had that game back in 2012 in christmess when the sky was all cloudy and snowy and i plays gta vice city stories for days on ps2 ughh wish i could go back time

I remember finally unlocking the second island and getting into the helicopter with the machine guns. Damn I just want to buy it now, it's not as cheap as tthe others but its worth it.

I have this game on my ps vita it's alright.

I dont eat that shit I have this game on my PSVita too and Its nice

@@tacoengineer6660 To bad both ps3 version and vita version was removed from the ps store.

Gameplay wise i prefer VCS i iust love the fact that we could finally swim in VC

@@idropNukes999 i’ve been playing it on my ps3, it’s a beautiful game

@@nissan_6828 bro ive trying figure out how to play it on my jailbroken PS3

@@idropNukes999 i just installed HEN and used some PS2 classics thing on PC, it runs good on PS3 and it’s easy to get working cause it was on PSN Classic

Nope vcs is just supieror

Too bad I can't hear it the theme song plays over it

As long as Rockstar didn’t care to publish this on PC as well, I hope it stays the most underrated, forever...

Famous last words...

Hello Man

Probably the atmosphere coupled with its soundtracks. The game felt like a world you don't wanna leave.

it's lighting was cool

Yeah

it will have even more players if they publish this on pc

Fuck Phil and that fucking forklift! Hated that mission as a kid but after playing it again recently, its not too bad

So glad someone finally said it.

“ BOMBSHINE BLOWOUT “ still remember that shit 😭 use to give to my lil brother to do

Donald Lyttle lmao 😂

Train mission in sa is easy people stop sayin that lame shit

Castjet 989 what the hell I didn't know that holy shit

Castjet 989 what the hell I didn’t know that holy shit

Castjet 989 what the hell I didn't know that holy shit

Castjet 989 what the hell I didn't know that holy shit

Castjet 989 what the hell I didn't know that holy shit

yeah but i do think crittics were a bit harsh on it at the time. infact i heard critics gave it a slightly lower score then libirty city stories. (to be fair i think it may have been because of overwhelming the empire building was)

Yes, yes. (Skaven from Warhammer series)

Yes.

IT IS

Uh, yes 😂

Yeah, that was weird as fuck. Maybe weirder than Gary Coleman in Postal 2. I mean, he tried to sound like some kind of a hardass.

greenhowie Gary Coleman in POSTAL 2 is the best star to ever appear in a video game

PorkPieDodger he is an hard bugger

WHO'S THE BITCH NOW GARY HAHAHAHA

Jessie didn't die though

@@ozvok2279 I'm talking about Walter

Both are bald

@@despacitodaniel801 haha, good comment

More like Dragging Bad

It's called Beach Patrol btw. You get in a BF Injection and the mission starts. 😜

Chinatown Wars is underrated because barely ads and when in stores. Only thing they showed was GTA4. Not really CW.

LCS is not underrated

@@vertigo6472 Yes it is, a lot of people hate that game

8 freaking million copies sold is underrated?

Lol you were saying

What do you mean? It’s was the 4th best selling psp game

WoofWoofGam3r but in gta standards that is very bad about 6 million compared to gta lcs 11 million and vice city 17.5 million and gta v 70 million and counting

Ace .c those sale Numbers are still pretty good Considering it was exclusively only for psp for awhile, snd warranted a sequel plus a port of chinatown wars

Ace .c gta 5 90 million

I don't know but when I was 10 I saw the two games and thought "This one must be cooler cuz the letters are in red" lol

jonasv19 if you unlock the outfit ‘fatigues’ you can enter the base and freely explore

Lol who cares? It’s a game

The money is for treating Pete Vance's asthma not Lance Vance BTW. Anyways that's a really good theory.

@@sreenaths6829 Thanks!

The have man, I got san andres on my ipad!

Darcy McIntosh But they don’t have this one.

Spencer Whiteway VCS and LCS and ps4 too

Me too :(

Hesusio bruh they got that name because they introduced fully three dimensional game graphics. Before it wasn’t as 3D and it was top down. That’s why. It’s only used to clarify the games before GTA 3 and after.

2is Toomuch Agrees. I would love to have another game set in the classic Vice City maybe set in 1982 or 1988 with a brand new character, storyline etc. But that will never happen.

I've noticed that vice city being the best is a popular opinion but nobody ever states their reason and I'm curious

Christian Black Atmosphere, soundtrack and story are the most commonly cited reasons from what I see.

@@chrisdelgado4621 yeah recently I was thinking about this installment in the series and I came around to the same conclusion it's a great game for the reasons you've stated when. It came to vice city and San Andreas Rockstar definitely got the 80s and 90s atmospheres correct

Christian Black I prefer SA, IV and V myself due to the more refined gameplay and bigger worlds, but I can definitely see why one would pick VC or even VCS as their favorite.

True af

you think *Boomshine Blowout* blowout was hard. Well try THESE mission instead: - *Jive Drive* : its easy on PSP due to "steady aim" feature, but its fcking hard on PS2 due to wobbly analogue + lack of "steady aim" - *Hose The Hoes* : put out the fire from your Brothel. Worse yet, the Girl's health deplete so fast & it could lead to mission failure if you're not fast enough to put out the fire - *Unfriendly Competition* : first part no problem. BUT, the real deal on these mission is during the Pool shootout sequence. this place is crawled with enemies & most of them are using AK's + Uzi's and it could nerve racking for beginner - *High Wire* : catch the moving car with magnet attached chopper. Damn - *Purple Haze* : retrieve the drugs with time limit, CHECK. disorienting visual screw, CHECK. cops intervene, CHECK - *The Exchange* : same as Jive Drive, but this time using Sniper - *Domo Arigato Domestoboto* : CRACK THE SAVE (code 8423) - *Light My Pyre* : you have to protect Lance + he's driving horribly & you could accidentally kill him if you're not careful

Japije 01 The domestobot mission was fun because of how unique it was Now that you remind me of Hose the Hoes, I remember how much of a nuisance that mission was. I'm pretty sure that I ended up using a trainer (VCS Cheat Device) just for this mission.

Japije 01 I agree 100% with you

I've only completed this game one time when it came out, but i clearly remember being unable to finish the mission with the domestoboto and asking my older brother to do it for me 😄

69 likes coincidence I think not

Definitely. They would be awesome with smooth framerates.

@Tinyman No you can't, yes you may play LCS on PC using an emulator like blustacks, but VCS is a console exclusive, you can't play that on PC.

Kaledrone /\ you can download Both LCS and VCS on free roms then use ppsspp to play the game

You can play vcs and lcs on pcsx2 at 60fps...

I mean they were working on a PC port of this game until it stopped

You're not wrong

USMC isn't a Navy either, pal.

At least the Vita got a uncharted exclusive

@@someguy8951 i actually wouldn't mind that game being rebuilt for Ps5. I actually enjoyed Golden Abyss more than Uncharted 1.

Oh yeah, right

Modern game graphics with the 80s looks an feel would.be insane lol

They usually kill the characters if they don’t sell well

Same. Both characters got killed in ways the protagonist didn’t wanna be involved in. Vic didn’t wanna be involved with the drugs trade yet did anyway and it got him killed. Johnny didn’t wanna be involved with Ashley and her meth addiction, yet he did anyway, causing him to grow an obsession with Ashley, leading to him confronting Trevor and dying. And the sad part about this is, it’s the protagonists’ closest friends that got them killed. Lance got Vic involved in the drugs trade and Ashley got Johnny caught up in the meth addiction

@@SuperDuperNick no

@@zerogamer935 u r stupid vcs sold most copies in less time.

People hated Liberty City Stories, that was more underrated

Stop wasting your time because it’s not coming

Viva La Tierra Loca Definitely

Viva La Tierra Loca Or switch if Nintendo will let them. Hell a New 3ds game would be good too in the style of Chinatown Wars, but I'd prefer a Switch GTA game

Viva La Tierra Loca wtf?

Niko Bellic is Serbian

I have to disagree with Vic being slightly weak, I prefer him to Tony Cipriani and probably Tommy Vercetti.

Vic is weak? Bro he’s the most human 3D universe protagonist, AND he is badass

@@someguy8951 He's better than Tony, and I actually enjoyed him as protagonist, but his motivations I found kind of weak for a GTA protagonist. I played it again, and yeah, he's a bit of a pushover and admittedly a little whiny. That said, he's pretty well rounded which is more than I can say for Tommy.

@@iamthepeppernator His motivations were better than Tommy's by a mile . He actually wanted to provide for his family and Luise and was against drugs in the beginning and then reluctant to do drug dealing later . And what about Tommy ? your average Tony Montana Knock off with no vulnerabilities that just wants power over the entire city....how does that make him any different from the Mendez brothers ? it seems that storytelling improved in rockstar games along the years

Same case with Liberty City Stories

Sadly it didn’t

When Dio or Ted Nugent came on 😊

Whenever Cousin Ed would be a dick to Lazlo 😂😂😂

darknid159 those killed me every time they came on 😂😂

All day

Yeah, LCS is underrated too

This is not underrated have u any that it is underrated

​@@misterhimura036 Definitely not as Underrated than VCS tho

So you pirate games? That's lame

Dominik Fuck it dude, i can't have a credit card...

They Made vice city port for mobile ? Not Enough ?

Dominik 🤡🤡🤡

@@dominik5682 Depends. Like BO II on steam still charging 110$ for both the game and season pass. A 9 year old game?!

Good luck getting the 100% because it's terrible

@@someguy8951 why?

@@joshuaortmeyer291 There are just so many side events and some of them are really tedious and boring like the paramedic missions

@@someguy8951 I already did these ones :) Actually I just got the 99 balloons, the special stunts, the rodeo challenges, the hunter side mission and the main missions left I think. And it was not really that boring actually, these missions aren't very long. I think I'm at 86% of the game or something like that. It's actually probably the only gta game where I actually have fun trying to make the 100%. I really like how the red balloons are positioned, they can be bound to a building, or be positioned at the ground floor. I really have fun trying to find all these balloons by flying with the helicopter all around the map trust me ^^

@@joshuaortmeyer291 I'm guessing you've 100% the game now?

I don't know man, the PSP wasn't a failure

It's not on android

@@jakelarkin2990 It used to be, I don't know if it still is but that's how I played it.I played it on Samsung Galaxy Note 8.

@@DREAMSINDIGITAL you must played it on ppsspp

@@baymisafir1605 yes I did play it on the ppsspp emulator
