Game Overview

The no holds barred world that has had critics up in arms for years is back with Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. All of the carnage and mayhem of the previous GTA games is back with a 1980s flair taken right out of such films as Scarface. Set in a fictional Miami, players must work their way to the top of the organized crime world using any means necessary. Grand Theft Auto: Vice City not only packs more violence and mayhem than the Godfather, but it’s also a fantastic achievement in the world of video games.

The Bottom Line

Following the success of Grand Theft Auto, developer Rockstar North takes gamers on a tour of a new city in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. With new sights, new characters, new (ahem) business opportunities, and even a whole new '80s themed era, players can indulge in more criminal fun than ever before. Vice City features more expansive locations, and over 120 vehicles ripe for the picking such as exotic cars, motorcycles, luxury yachts and planes. The soundtrack boasts three times the tunes compared to the previous GTA, and features countless '80s hits. Over 40 different weapons ensure effective firepower and provide enough variety for stylish defensive measures (samurai sword anyone?).

Provides just about everything you'd want in a follow-up to an outstanding game. It's bigger, badder, and better in almost every imaginable way.
