Vice City brings back the excellent game Grand Theft Auto and throws in a little twist...its in the 80's. You start out as a former mobster who just got out of jail and is looking for some payback from his former employers. Just like the last GTA, you can go around and get jobs to earn money and respect. The respect you don't earn from doing jobs for mob boss', you earn by beating some skulls in. Many, many side jobs are in this game. You can own business' such as: Porno Studio, Car Dealership, False Cash Factory, Strip Club, Taxi Service and an Ice Cream shop that doesn't sell Ice Cream. You also can get a steady cash flow from these places. The only problem is that you have to do missions to actually get the income of that business. The missions start out easy but get harder and harder. But once you own the business and get the cash flow, you realize that its all worth it.
The graphics on the game are about the same as GTA3, but the story line picks up whatever slack that they left behind.
There are very interesting vehicles that are at your diposal. My personal favorite are the crotch-rockets that are in the game, the name fails me at the moment, but I'm sure that you have or will find out what I'm talking about. I really enjoyed this game and recommend it to all gamers alike.
