GTA Vice City really is one of the best games ever, and in my opinion, the best of all the GTA's. Yes I liked San Andreas and the other's, but the whole 80's style/feel of Vice City is just something I cant find in any other game (maybe except that Scarface game, which is also excellent), and I've had Vice City for a few years now. I got a Playstation 2 not long ago, but when I got Vice City, I only had a PC. It was also my first introduction to what I'd call 'modern games' (I'd gave up on gaming for a while and only had a Playstation 1 before I got a PC then a Playstation 2) so it really blew me away graphically/sound/gameplay wise, everything.

Whats so good about it then? Well, after GTA 3 (also a great game) there have been more than a few improvements. Like being able to fly, more licensed music on the soundtrack (I love the 80s soundtrack), longer storyline, some graphic improvment, etc. The graphics arent great by todays standards, but they are good none the less.

You play Tommy Vercetti, who's just got out of jail and is sent to Miami by his old boss. Some of the voice acting for the characters in this game are by hollywood names, and its just excellent - adds to the whole 'cinematic' feel of the game (it's kinda like Scarface, the movie). Needless to say the long story line will keep you playing for months, also the amount of exploring for the side missions will keep you entertained for a long time. The game has varied mission's, keeping with the GTA style of go here, drive there, kill this guy, deliver this, etc. This style of gameplay never actually gets boring however, because of the funny things that happen along the way.

Can't really say much more, or praise this game enough. If you don't have it or havent played it already, why? Its been out a while and whether you have a PC or Playstation 2, just buy the game, you will love it.
