Overview The
phenomenon that started on the PC with a commitment to expansive non-linear
gameplay, irreverent humor, and unparalleled action has gone on to become a
household name worldwide.
The world class gaming
experience that is Grand Theft Auto: Vice City is built from the ground up for
the PC platform, fully optimized in a lush splendor unlike anything you've seen
before.
This is a chance for PC
gamers to experience just what the fuss is all about, and for console version
veterans to revisit the beauty, glamour, filth, corruption and deception of Vice
City all over again.
Story Having just
made it back onto the streets of Liberty City after a long stretch in maximum
security, Tommy Vercetti is sent to Vice City by his old boss, Sonny
Forelli.
They were understandably
nervous about his re-appearance in Liberty City, so a trip down south seemed
like a good idea.
But all does not go
smoothly upon his arrival in the glamorous, hedonistic metropolis of Vice City.
He's set up and is left with no money and no merchandise.
Sonny wants his money back,
but the biker gangs, Cuban gangsters, and corrupt politicians stand in his
way.
Most of Vice City seems to
want Tommy dead. His only answer is to fight back and take over the city
himself.
From the decade of big
hair, excess and pastel suits comes a story of one man's rise to the top of the
criminal pile.
Features Vice City is a huge urban sprawl
ranging from the beach to the swamps and the glitz to the ghetto, and is the
most varied, complete and alive digital city ever created.
The PC version is packing
exclusive features. Expanded controls let you play in mouse-look 3rd person view
or classic Grand Theft Auto console. Plus integrated support for all major
gamepads, joysticks and steering wheels.
Optimized graphics are
pushed to the limit to take advantage of the latest PC hardware. With massive
viewable distances, texture resolutions bumped up from 32 colors to 32-bit color
with billions of shades and game resolution to scale as high as your monitor can
support.
