Me has got it. Woo!

*dances*

It's proper bo to say the least. I hadn't actually played Vice City before today and I was quite surprised by how much extra gameplay was crammed into it since GTAIII. Motorbikes, jumping out of moving cars, riding on top of moving cars whilst shooting(!)... needless to say I'll be playing these for aaaaaages.

Yea I understand what you're saying, but you still get the comedy stations, like Chatterbox. But you also have the OPTION of adding your own tunes, so you get the best of both worlds really.

I know, but the comedy value in the GTA3 radio is possibly the games best attribute

Custom soundtracks aren't actually too bad. If you use more modern songs with GTA3 and older songs with Vice City, then it doesn't really take anything away from the game.

As I've explained, using custom soundtracks will suck.

Although I have the PS2 versions of the GTA games, and have completed both of them, I decided to go ahead and get the X-Box double pack to see if there was much of a difference, and there is. Obviously the graphics are much better, the cars are much more detailed, damage is better, and the explosions have also been improved considerably.

There are loads of graphical improvements all over the place, especially in GTA3. The animation has been improved, there are no more 'clubbed hands' and everything seems a lot smoother.

Of course the custom soundtracks are also a very welcome feature.

Let's not forget why the forum was put here. GTA Double pack is tremendous. I've got the Xbox double pack version and i was driving down staunton island highway earlier, listening to R.E.M. on the custom radio it was awesome.

The Analogue on the PS2 is appaulingly poor t use, I'll admit, and, thus, I use the poor d-pad

The PS2 pad would be a lot easier to use if they swapped the D-pad with the left analogue stick.
