This place is empty so im just gonna put down what i know about GTA ; vice city so far.

IT wont be a proper sequel to GTA3 but not a little add on that was expected. this is not GTA4 but more like the PCs version of GTA: London that came out a while ago.

IT is scheduled for a release on the 22nd of October, which for many of you will probably be the greatest friday ever seeing a a little known football game called Pro Evo 2 comes out that day aswell.

Many old faces are expected to show up with the likes of Donald Love and Ray the bent cop returning, maybe it is time that Darkel made an appearance seeing as the developers cut him out at the last minute. THe main character will hopefully stay the same or else it would seem pointless to change the character, maybe this time he will be able to talk and actually have a name.

The Game is set in the 80's so dont go expecting any laser guns or brand new machine guns. The cars are more then likely going to be convertibles and some top quality nice ones.

And probably for some of you the main high point will be the inclusion of motorbikes, well when you look at the box there is a picture of a bike that looks cool.

I hope you will be able to do more "Group" missions because in all honesty i found that the missions you did where YOU alone had to go and kill around 30 people a bit like james bond games which i also find boring, so what i want is more of the "bank robbery" missions where you and about four other people go and do a mission which i thought was really cool.

I wouldnt mind having either two or three people with you all the time anyways because thats the sort of thing i like to do, go round killing with a few friends i.e Final Fantasy X


well i just hope the game comes out soon, and hopefully it will be as long as GTA3

No, the clothes reflect on the date and time of the game and so do the cars! Rockstar aren't exactly going to make up cars! You didn't see flying cars or 1930 cars in GTA3 did ya? Neither did you see people wearing flares or brightly coloured/patterned clothes.

Ah, but characters from the first game 'are' going to appear in vice, just before they moved to liberty city. If you've seen the front cover of the game, you'll see a picture of Donald Love and what looks like Kenji. I think it will be interesting to see some of the main characters from GTA3 before they became big crime bosses.
