Lets try and get a grand theft auto: vice city longest thread
After Grand theft auto was released it was straight away a excellent seller, then rockstar games decided to make Grand theft auto2 but they decided to call it London instead because that were it was set unlike gta1 it was a real city then when the finally they did release Grand theft auto2 but it was still Birdseye view which in away made it exciting by not knowing what’s coming which could be bad because you could hit a cop car and get in a chase also it was at night which I personally found annoying. Then finally they decided to change the view make it on a new console Grand theft auto 3 was the main talk this straight away became No1 and was the best game at its time. Now its Grand theft auto: vice city (Miami nice) although its set in the eighties for the second time in grand theft auto history you can ride motorcycles only ever featured before in grand theft auto 1 in grand theft auto: vice city you can ride jet skis, fly a plane, fly a helicopter, be eaten by the sharks, change clothes in the game, use knives, be chased by police boats and everlasting new things. Grand theft auto is number 1 on most people Christmas lists will be the best success for rockstar games I have a felling that it just might make no1 Ps2 game of its time or maybe not. Or will it not sell one copy (I severely doubt it) cant make No1 game in the world (its got its chances) but it probably wont could be but wont. So do you think it will be No. 1 bestseller.
Well let’s start off by talking about what kind of cars and motorcycles there will be!
Hope you like the grand theft auto series

Having just made it back onto the streets of Liberty City after a long stretch in maximum security, Tommy Vercetti is sent to Vice City by his old boss, Sonny Forelli. They were understandably nervous about his re-appearance in Liberty City, so a trip down south seemed like a good idea. But all does not go smoothly upon his arrival in the glamorous, hedonistic metropolis of Vice City. He's set up and is left with no money and no merchandise. Sonny wants his money back, but the biker gangs, Cuban gangsters, and corrupt politicians stand in his way. Most of Vice City seems to want Tommy dead. His only answer is to fight back and take over the city himself.
From the decade of big hair, excess and pastel suits comes a story of one man's rise to the top of the criminal pile as Grand Theft Auto returns to the PlayStation®2 computer entertainment system this October. Vice City is a huge urban sprawl ranging from the beach to the swamps and the glitz to the ghetto, and is the most varied, complete and alive digital city ever created. Combining non-linear gameplay with a character driven narrative, you arrive in a town brimming with delights and degradation and are given the opportunity to take it over as you choose.
As a major gateway to South America and the Caribbean and attracting migrants, Vice City is brimming with diverse characters, so there's a friend for everyone. It is a sociable place and the new guy in town is sure to meet all manner of friendly people in the sunshine capital of America. Athletes, pop stars, real estate developers, politicians, trailer trash, everyone is moving to Vice City to find out what makes it the number one growth city in America. But, as Tommy quickly finds out, trust is still the rarest of commodities.
Vice City offers vehicular pleasures to suit every taste. For the speed enthusiast, there's high-performance cars and motorbikes. For the sportsman, a powerboat or a golf buggy lets you enjoy the great outdoors. For those that need that sense of freedom and escape, why not charter a helicopter and see the beauty of Vice City from the air?
As the party capital of America, you would expect your ears to be seduced by a host of sultry melodies and pumping beats, but the city is truly rocking. You'll be AMAZED as you sweep through Vice City's FM dial. If you are feeling like trouble, you can tune into some driving rock, or some crucial electro, or maybe you want to slow down with some sweet soul, and there will always be some great romantic anthems if you want to really take your mind off things.
For the action man, or outdoors type, there's tons of fun things to do and adventures to be had… guaranteed. For the secretive or creepy type, Vice City is full of surprises, a place where you'll constantly be surprised by the vivacious, fun-loving types who live there and the things you can discover.
Grand Theft Auto: Vice City is the most diverse and ambitious piece of interactive entertainment yet created. The game is developed by Rockstar North and published by Rockstar Games.

Confirmed Improvements in GTA: Vice City
Gameplay Improvements
Improved cleaner, smoother hand to hand combat system that includes various kicks and punches. Also you can kneel down to steady you aim.
40 weapons. (Compared to GTA III's 15) These include a knife, machete, six-shooter, uzi, and many more. New character animations are included for each weapon, such as a stabbing animation for the machete.
Improved targeting system. It will change color depending on threat, and tell you if a ped is armed.
Improved AI. The police can now shoot out tires. They will also chase after other criminals this time.
Peds do more action such as jog, lay on the beach, roller-skate, sit on benches, cross streets, and walk in pairs. Peds will also crouch down behind cars when in a gun fight, and gangs will walk in groups instead of in single file or on their own in GTA III.
GTA: Vice City will be all open from the start! (Meaning you can explore the whole city without limitations.)
The city is two and a half times larger than Liberty City!
Ability to enter at least 50 buildings! These include and are not limited to: bank, coffee shop, hotels, shopping mall, airport, and night clubs. The buildings are multi-leveled and have fully decorated interiors.
Buildings are interactive. For example: walking into a store and buying new clothes.
Greater geographical diversity, such as downtown areas filled with skyscrapers, neon-lit boulevards, run-down slums, and swampland, the ocean, and a huge web of streams and rivers.
At least 100 missions (possibly 140) The missions will tend to be longer, more challenging, and more sophisticated with high-end production values, unlike GTA III's 'grab-and-go' missions. They could include a car chase, gun fight, and an interior interaction all in the same mission.
New side missions such as pizza delivery, and the rumored SWAT, limo, hearse, and ice cream missions.
The main character can talk.
About a 2000 page script, with greater character and plot development than ever before.
80 minutes worth of cutscenes, compared to GTA III's 30.
A possibility of playing as different characters throughout the game.
Vehicle Improvements
120 vehicles in all! (Compared to GTA III's 50)
Real-time shadowing on car's surface.
Improved on the number of reflective surfaces on cars.
Better lighting and shadowing. Scenery will cast shadows on your vehicle as you drive by.
Different types of police cars!
Higher resolutions.
Better damage models, such as broken windows. You can also damage your car with a weapon, like a bat.
You can bail out of moving vehicles.
Ability to shoot tires to slow down your foes. This will make the car lose handling. Warning: The police can do this as well.
New sportscars and trucks all inspired by the '80s.
Many more boats, such as a luxury sailboat, speed boat, fishing boat, Coast Guard boat; and waterways and canals all over Vice City to drive them through!
There are now motorcycles*, helicopters, planes (one with pontoons, so it can land on water), etc.
*When on a motorcycle your clothes ripple in the wind!
Ability to shoot forward on a motorcycle.
Multiple pedestrians inside a vehicle. (On the vehicle, in the motorcycle's case)
Ability to use weapons inside the helicopter, such as a sniper.
Graphical Improvements
Image quality is much cleaner and sharper than GTA III
All of the character models are amazingly detailed!
There is no sense of "blockiness" on models!
The city has bright neon lights and pastels. More mood-enlightening that the drab browns and greys of Liberty City.
The water is vastly improved! You can now see the bottom! It is not that dingy, fake look that GTA III had.
Fish can be been seen in the waves and in the bay.
Improved frame rate and even higher resolution textures!
A new lighting and radiosity system! This means bright neon lights!
Sound Improvements
There will be an estimated 9 hours of radio! (Compared to GTA III's three and a half hours.)
Close to 90 songs! These are actually real songs this time, from artists such as Judas Priest, A Flock of Seagulls, or Michael Jackson.
8000 to 9000 lines of pedestrian dialogue. (GTA III had about 3000 and that was roughly an hour and a half)
A GTA:VC soundtrack licensed by a major record label.
thease are all true so dont think they arnt even if they are crazy

Lets try and get a grand theft auto: vice city longest thread
After Grand theft auto was released it was straight away a excellent seller, then rockstar games decided to make Grand theft auto2 but they decided to call it London instead because that were it was set unlike gta1 it was a real city then when the finally they did release Grand theft auto2 but it was still Birdseye view which in away made it exciting by not knowing what’s coming which could be bad because you could hit a cop car and get in a chase also it was at night which I personally found annoying. Then finally they decided to change the view make it on a new console Grand theft auto 3 was the main talk this straight away became No1 and was the best game at its time. Now its Grand theft auto: vice city (Miami nice) although its set in the eighties for the second time in grand theft auto history you can ride motorcycles only ever featured before in grand theft auto 1 in grand theft auto: vice city you can ride jet skis, fly a plane, fly a helicopter, be eaten by the sharks, change clothes in the game, use knives, be chased by police boats and everlasting new things. Grand theft auto is number 1 on most people Christmas lists will be the best success for rockstar games I have a felling that it just might make no1 Ps2 game of its time or maybe not. Or will it not sell one copy (I severely doubt it) cant make No1 game in the world (its got its chances) but it probably wont could be but wont. So do you think it will be No. 1 bestseller.
Well let’s start off by talking about what kind of cars and motorcycles there will be!
