Alright guys, I just played about an hour until my brother couldn't help himself and almost killed me to get the game, but oh well... I'll get my time... first off... the story continues right at the end of GTA3 ... and basically, they are going to find a new contact in "Vice City" and the story continues from there... I'll let you guys go through the story, but for gameplay, there were some very awesome improvements... first off... when I started off, I saw a car, walked up and grabbed it... when the radio came on, I heard Michael Jackson "billie jean" playing, it was fucking tight, I actually found myself just cruising in cars so I could listen to the music... however, while driving, I heard this weird as buzzing sound... almost like a bumblee bee... then I saw it, some small white dude on a scooter, I got out of my car and immediatley ran after the fool... oh, running is so fast now... anyway he stopped at a light and I punched him off the scooter, it was my scooter now, I hopped on it and wow, it was soooo much fun, this little thing could sneak through anything, however if you crashed, your dude would fly like a mutha fucka ... and lose health, then I saw another,  a sports bike this time and wow, this thing was FAST and it was hard as hell to steer.... there was also a big hog bike that i tried, slower of all bikes.... loud though......while cruisin, i noticed a club, and went in... haha, damn, people were dancing in it, so started shooting them and instantly i got two warrant stars, and when I walked out, the cops were on me.... I found a car and started the chase....i had read a few times that you can actually bail out of a car while its in motion, so i tried and sure enough... my dude jumped out of the car, hit the ground, rolled a few times and lost some health, but the cops zoomed past me, and I was able to take off again... but the cops instantly just turned around and were on me ... YOU CAN'T SWIM... i fell in water and drowned....but I hear there are sharks in the water, and even during the intro, they show a shark... so im hoping... I HAVEN'T SEEN A PLANE YET TO FLY OR A HELICOPTER TO FLY, except for the police choppers... one thing that was falsely informed , was the fact that you could have access to all of vice city... right at the beginning it says "vice city" is closed off due to weather problems... and when it rains, it rains... shit fly's around and people really dont appear as much...

this game has improved a lot, but compared to GTA3 it's nothing thats going to make you say OMFG THIS GAME IS LIKE SOOOOOO MUCH  BETTER....its great, and wow is it great, but i think a lot of people were making it out to be like amazingly better... which to me isn't, but DONT WORRY, you will love this fucking game it's awesome... GRAPHICALLY, SOOOOOO MUCH BETTER, sometimes its looks blurry, but you get used to it.... DAMN I NEED TO PLAY AGAIN...... the story starts out real cool....the controls are real familiar to GTA3, so it's definetly going to be comfortable for you...

damn lucky fool how did you get it before the release date i know you had it preordered but i believed that they wouldnt give it to you until the release date...but anyway congrats man......seems fuckin awsome...i get mine tomorrow morning im acctually gonna get up early for this shit!....I get mine when the store opens at 10am....so i cant fuckin wait!!!
Title: Re:OFFICIAL **I Got GTAVC** Thread
Post by: Big BpG on October 28, 2002, 11:10:42 PM
my funcoland released it early... they got  the game at about 5 today, and they called me yesterday about it, saying I could pick it up today after 6, so that's what I did...

by the way...

VC is a great game, but as I played it, i felt like I had played it before... the shock value from GTAIII is no longer with you when you play VC, the ability to gun down people or to run them over is now just normal, theres no more wow, this is awesome feeling.... however the game is great and im hooked, I do the missions and the story so far is real cool

i don't have it yet but i DID PLAY it at my homies house the other day so heres what i can tell you...

yes you can fly the heli
it is def worth buying(its only 39.99 at best buy)
the control is EXACTLY THE SAME
there are some disapointments like you can't swim and you can only go inside certain buildings but overall the game is UNBELIEVEABLE!!!! there is big ass airport, a stadium, a dirt bike racing track, you can actually buy buildings and shit like that, and many more i can't think of right now

there was about about 10 seconds cut out - aparently from one of the cut-scenes - other reports suggest hookers have been cut out too as they did in GTA3 but i really dont know - but all up 10 seconds is gone.
