    İnanılmaz atmosferi. Güzel bir hikaye ancak bazı kısımları eksik hissettiriyor.Harika müzikleri.Güzel karakterleri. İnanılmaz bir oyun.

    This game is a legend. Very fun and very enjoyable. It's technically a legend for the year it came out. And it's unplayable now because it's technically outdated. But it was a beautiful 50 hours. The most special game for me because it is the first pc game I played.

    After so much time, the game is still "fresh". Absolute evergreen. Atmosphere, location, timeline, 80s music. A legendary game. Great story and superb characterization.

    SRB:
    I posle toliko vremena igra je "sveža". Apsolutni evergrin. Atmosfera, lokacija, vremenska linija, muzika 80ih. Legendarna igra. Sjajna priča i vrhunska karakterizacija likova.

    GTA is a long-running series, and it's had a lot of great protagonists, and if someone asked me who the most GTA-ish protagonist is, I'd say Tommy Vercetti from Vice City. The game is worth it for his presence alone.

    There is no problem in the game. It's just bad that you can't swim in the game. But since this is a periodic problem, we should not include it in the scoring. The game is excellent.

    Set in Miami, this game is inspired by the Scarface movie. That's why I suggest you watch Scarface before starting the game. The finale was made in exactly the same Scarface flavor regardless of the venues. Apart from that, the game is one of the nostalgia series, one of Rockstar's masterpieces.

    I love Vice city. It still has the best radio stations to this day and buying the businesses is so much fun. It was a massive step up from GTA III. I really liked the bright atmosphere and it brings back memories when I was a kid. I use to goto the house with the pool out front, climb round the back where the AR spawns and blow up helicopters for cash to try and save up for the house. WhenI love Vice city.

When I finally managed to get it I was so happy but it took me hours cos I kept getting killed driving back to the safe house. Good times. The story in this game is amazing. The missions are good fun. There isn't a huge amount of mods compared to San Andreas but still I recommend downloading the controller mod so you can use a Xbox controller or Playstation with ds4 windows. Or controllers don't work very well.… Expand

    The music atmosphere and story all compile into a nice pancake batter of goodness. The golden era of gta. But just like all pancake batter - there is a time to stop working with it and put it into the pan. A real shame this original is now tainted with its remaster

    Legendary radio.

    I've played VC in 2004, 2010 and 2021 (original one not DE) and the only thing i don't like about this game - to finish the game you need to buy ALL businesses and it's not obvious. That's way I've not finished it in 2004.

    This legend don't need any score - install, get sanchez, turn on self control and feel the vibe.

For me this was the most enjoyable game which I played in my childhood . I am so grateful that I was able to play this game when I was just 9 . Now I know that this game is 16+ but still this game was the most OP game I ever played . Even though I did not understand **** about the storyline, I still did some missions like killing Diaz and the last mission using my brothers progress. I got into trouble sometimes when massacring the whole entire population of Vice City . I still loved playing this game every day .… Expand

    Gta Vice City is the game that reflects the atmosphere of the 80s in the best way and that I have completed more than 10 times. The Graphics Are Impressive For The Time. But now my eyes hurt a little while playing :D Radios It is the game with the best game music.
    Riding a Motorbike Among the Palm Trees One by One is what I enjoy the most.

    Gta Vice City opened new opportunities for gamers in 2002. Unsurpassed history, open world, also compared to GTA 3, in this game you can buy your business. Even minor missions that do not affect the plot are unsurpassed! The open world is very well drawn, there are no unnecessary details.
    Gta Vice City is a coup in the world of games.

    The controls can be very confused at times, the graphics dont look as vibrant and colorful as the PS2 version and there are a lot more bugs and graphical errors I have spotted. Apart from that, not much else to say other than it is still as fun as the console version and if you are a PC gamer looking for a good sandbox game, this is the one to buy.

    Best of all, the numerous bugs and glitches that brought the PS2 version down a notch have been cleaned up and eliminated, for the most part. Enemies no longer shoot you through solid walls, you no longer randomly lose health while running, and cars remain in your garage until you take them out.
