Talking I have a treat for you...

GTA Vice City screens

They are grainy, as they are scans from a magazine...But I still figured you'd wanna see them...

Those graphics look hardly improved at all. But meh...can't expect too much, they're probably using the same game engine.

Anyways, some news for you:

-9 hour soundtrack
-Ray Liotta (of Goodfellas fame) will be the voice of the main character
-Mortorcycles, convertibles and helicopters, oh my!
-Vice City roughly twice the size of Liberty City, and it's all open from the get-go
-40 Weapons as opposed to 15 in GTA3
-120 Vehicles as opposed to 50 in GTA3
-You can walk into buildings including hotel lobbeys, disco clubs etc.
-All new Aiming and combat system
-You can shoot out car tires with a sniper rifle

Well, that is a definite improvement over GTA3. I guess it adds much more realism (sp?) to it. I will rent this game, but I think the Getaway will be better than GTA VC.

IMO, Ray Liotta rules. And Goodfellas owned the Godfather. This game is going all out. 9 hour soundtrack? That is so cool.

October 22, I believe.


And this game will be far better than The Getaway.... Well, at least that is what I predict...

I agree that the graphics aren't all that much better than GTA3, and new combat system and new aiming system? Why'd they have to fix something that's not broken? I also hate the fact that it's in the 80's... But other than that, this game will most certainly kick ass.

Well, if GTA:VC didn't have all the senseless killing sprees, Getaway would be by far, a much a better game IMO. Unless GTA: VC has a killer storyline and cool missions.

Crono, I don't mean to be a hassle, but that's 3 posts in this thread and you don't even like GTA...I'd hate to see how many posts you'd have in the Kingdom Hearts Explosion thread
