Video Game Reviews of Grand Theft Auto Vice City Stories
Customer Review: Grand Theft Auto:Vice City Stories.........
Summary: 5 Stars
Maybe it's the new adventure set in Vice City with a new character. Maybe it's the fact that I can carry it around and play anytime, anywhere I want. Who knows? But, one thing I do know for sure is that I love Grand Theft Auto:Vice City Stories a heck of a sight more than Grand Theft Auto:Vice City for the PS2 Console. Course, this game takes place 2 years before that game does. It tells the story of Vic Vance. A soldier who makes one big mistake by trafficking drugs for his sergeant and is kicked to the curb by the service. It's then that he makes a tough choice. Build an empire of his own or be crushed by all the opposition that is into the drug trade. Guess which road he takes. Gary Busey, Danny Trejo, Phillip Michael Thomas, Phil Collins lead an all star cast providing voices for the game. Even DJ Luke is voiced by Luther R. Campbell, better known as Luke Skyywalker from rap group 2 Live Crew as well. Music by performers such as Egytian Lover, Run DMC, Whodini, The Jonzun Crew, Queensryche, Kiss, Dio, Dokken, Rick James, Marvin Gaye, Teddy Pendergrass, The Human League, The Thompson Twins, Frankie Goes to Hollywood, ABC, among others are featured.
The game itself is a huge improvement over Liberty City Stories. All the graphics in this game have alot more detail to them. The framerate is alot better. There's less pop-up than before. You can even see alot farther in the game now with no problems. Essentially, though, it's the same GTA that we've played time and time again but who's complaining? Certainly not me. I'm amazed with this pocket version of GTA. Why? Well, I was expecting it to be a dumbed down version of GTA,actually. I was also expecting the loading times to be absolutely horrendous(like the PSP Midnight Club 3). Lo and behold, I was quite surprised that neither was the case with this game. It's quite an achievement for the PSP, believe me.
It's a great game. I love it. I just wish we could talk Rockstar into making a Grand Theft Auto:San Andreas Stories now. That would be real sweet for us PSP owners.

Customer Review: Where Did My Car Go???
Summary: 3 Stars
It's a fun game, nice to visit Vice City again. Getting used to the PSP controllers take a little bit of time. I was pleased with the music, (the selection for Liberty City Stories was just awful).
I have not completed the game yet, but my biggest gripe is that in the first save house I keep losing my cars (wasn't that a problem they had corrected years ago in a different version???. A reall bummer considering I had the V8 muscle car... if it wasn't for that I'd have give the game 4 stars.
Customer Review: A Great GTA for PSP
Summary: 5 Stars
I can't believe how similiar this game is to the PS2 version. Sometimes I have to stop and remember i'm outside playing a psp port and not at home playing the real thing on PS2. Story is kinda boring, most of the characters are lame. But the gameplay is as GTA as it gets, with stunning graphics for the psp, it really brings the experience to life. If your looking for a great plot with intricate characters then this isn't the title, if your looking for pure GTA fun and your a fan of the series, you'll love this and have no problem jumping right into this title. Highly recommend this game till something like God of War or FF7 CC come out.
