So whose getting excited about Vice City?

***craig5320*** · Feb 10, 2003, 03:55 PM

I'm currently bounding around Liberty with this 9500 Pro and loving it, excellent performance, and I've seen the Vice City PS2 ad a zillion times this week, and I'm really started to get excited about the PC version of Vice City, a definite purchase... sometimes food jus' has to come second.

It's scheduled for April isn't it? come on baby, all the way. I'm sick of having to visit friends to play it

I can't wait for it. Hopefully it has some extra candy or SOMETHING in it to make it better than the PS2 version.

I can't wait, I have gta3 for both pc and ps2 and its no comparison on what one has better image quality. The pc version also has better controls.

Well of course it has better controls, you don't need a double thumb joystick controller

I played VIce City for PS2 and I wasn't impressed at all. It's basically the same exact thing as GTAIII with some new stuff, and a somewhat new city. Plus it's really freakin short. I don't know if it's half as long as the first one. I think it should be released as an expansion pack for the PC, and not as a full game. I know several people who beat game in less than a week playing totally legit.

It's still a lot of fun. I don't know if I'll be buying the PC version. Like I buy anything anymore anyway.
