The most underrated GTA ever... vic Vance was awesome.
Rip :(
Vic never dead in 1986 due to Rockstar didn't think they would make prequel story!
doggydude98
Eh. He was a bit all over the place, character-wise. He’ll want nothing to do with drugs one minute, and the next, he’ll be planing out his drug empire.
And he clearly did a lot of drugs. Just look at what happened to him in between games.
Chinatown Wars says hi.
ThatGuyThatWorksAt Sega because its suck as
Gta Vice City Stories = Lance Vance rescue simulator
Lance Vance Dance
Lance: I know a place where you could get high with a brotha and down with a sista...i did
Let's bounce.
Gta: Big Bro City
i kiiled kim in both games HIT AND RUN
> Only the black protagonists of the early GTA games could swim.
perhaps rockstar where trying to break the stereotype
Cj
Spencer Whiteway Victor is Dominican.
i guess rockstar wanted to make it to where Italians cant swim. but whats odd is in gta sa every single ped including cops drowns as soon as they hit the water. i never got that
Spencer Whiteway I realized that just now
Underrated soundtrack. Everyone just thinks Vice City has the best soundtrack but this game is just as good if not better.
General Cabbagehead i think better
Yes this game has a better soundtrack
There's quite a few gems in VCS but VC literally has radio stations filled with hits on top of hits.
@@GuiPT88 Yeah but some VCS radio station versions are better than VC. The Rock, Post Disco, Hip Hop and R&B were way better imo
Best soundtracks
San Andreas
Vice city stories
Vice city
But I agree V-Rock in Vice city stories is far better than V-Rock in Vice city it feels more like the 80s metal culture radio station that they were aiming for that they didn't quite achieve in the first one
The whole “too many buildings under constructions at once” thing makes sense for a city based on 80s Miami.
I used to love the sunset in this game, purple, orange and pink.
Also the combat was good, used to love breaking necks.
If you think carefully, the whole GTA plot happened because some dude was expelled from the army
That’s deep bro
I don't know the story so whys that?
Kingrai 15 Vice City Stories is set in 1984, the earliest setting in the whole series. Vic Vance was discharged from the army for running drugs for Jerry Martinez, thus sparking the events that would happen in Vice City and so on..
@@tylerp3327 oh okay, still have to play 3d era games lol.
thats in 3D universe
One thing i really liked about VCS is how Rockstar went overboard on the color pallete. Everything from the neon lights, sky, sunlight, buildings etc. is so much more vibrant, colorful and bright compared to VC. I love it.
Besides a few gameplay additions like the ability to do drivebys, swim, ride jetskis etc. the original VC still is the superior game imo.
Gameplay wise i prefer VCS i iust love the fact that we could finally swim in VC
@@idropNukes999 i’ve been playing it on my ps3, it’s a beautiful game
@@nissan_6828 bro ive trying figure out how to play it on my jailbroken PS3
@@idropNukes999 i just installed HEN and used some PS2 classics thing on PC, it runs good on PS3 and it’s easy to get working cause it was on PSN Classic
Nope vcs is just supieror
Vice City Stories: way underrated gem, none of its systems get any recognition, and it's soundtrack is almost as good as Vice Citys' soundtrack
Too bad I can't hear it the theme song plays over it
As long as Rockstar didn’t care to publish this on PC as well, I hope it stays the most underrated, forever...
My favorite GTA game ever. San Andreas might be the best one ever made since it has so much more in it and was huge for its time but there’s something special about VCS that makes it my favorite. Maybe it’s the soundtrack or story or too much VC nostalgia, idk what. But I hope you guys know my feeling about this game
Hello Man
Probably the atmosphere coupled with its soundtracks. The game felt like a world you don't wanna leave.
it's lighting was cool
Yeah
it will have even more players if they publish this on pc
I used to play this for hours on my ps2, damn I miss that game.
same here i remember i had that game back in 2012 in christmess when the sky was all cloudy and snowy and i plays gta vice city stories for days on ps2
ughh wish i could go back time
I remember finally unlocking the second island and getting into the helicopter with the machine guns. Damn I just want to buy it now, it's not as cheap as tthe others but its worth it.
I have this game on my ps vita it's alright.
I dont eat that shit I have this game on my PSVita too and Its nice
@@tacoengineer6660 To bad both ps3 version and vita version was removed from the ps store.
If you think about it this game is basically Breaking Bad.
-Both characters start off as good guys and then die at the end of their eras.
-Both characters become corrupt trying to do the good thing.
-Both characters have family members that make their lives harder for no good reason.
-Both characters turn to the life of crime to provide for their families.
-Both characters deserved more then what they've been dealt with.
Jessie didn't die though
@@ozvok2279 I'm talking about Walter
Both are bald
@@despacitodaniel801 haha, good comment
More like Dragging Bad
If you complete all the Beach side missions, you could swim forever.

Me: watches video
My mind: memories of the mission boomshine blowout
Man this game was my jam back in the day.
Forklift mission with phill=train mission with big smoke.
Fuck Phil and that fucking forklift! Hated that mission as a kid but after playing it again recently, its not too bad
So glad someone finally said it.
“ BOMBSHINE BLOWOUT “ still remember that shit 😭 use to give to my lil brother to do
Donald Lyttle lmao 😂
Train mission in sa is easy people stop sayin that lame shit
PHIL COLLINS.
Yeah, that was weird as fuck. Maybe weirder than Gary Coleman in Postal 2. I mean, he tried to sound like some kind of a hardass.
greenhowie Gary Coleman in POSTAL 2 is the best star to ever appear in a video game
PorkPieDodger he is an hard bugger
WHO'S THE BITCH NOW GARY HAHAHAHA
"I think we have a deal, my friend"
Famous last words...
What also wasn't mentioned, besides helicopters, you can fly a plane as well, that can be spawned on water at the pier of the last safehouse, you can rob stores whenever you want, and there are several options during fighting: light punch/jab with circle, hard punch/uppercut with X, and grab and throw people with triangle, or hit them while holding them. You can even do an instant kill by breaking necks with triangle from the back. And with the "issue" of close enemies during shooting, you can kick them away and then shoot them. Also you can go to a Phil Collins concert anytime you want. I can go on even more ! My favourite GTA... 😪
You could actually have unlimited swimming if you completed a side mission on the beach. Forgot which was it tho.
This game along with LCS and CW are sadly quite underrated, I wish if more of GTA fans and casual GTA players *cough* GTA Online...would have played these games.
It's called Beach Patrol btw. You get in a BF Injection and the mission starts. 😜
Chinatown Wars is underrated because barely ads and when in stores. Only thing they showed was GTA4. Not really CW.
LCS is not underrated
@@vertigo6472 Yes it is, a lot of people hate that game
8 freaking million copies sold is underrated?
So if i understand correctly. GTA VCS on ps2 is the hidden gem of GTA series?
yeah but i do think crittics were a bit harsh on it at the time. infact i heard critics gave it a slightly lower score then libirty city stories. (to be fair i think it may have been because of overwhelming the empire building was)
Yes, yes. (Skaven from Warhammer series)
Yes.
IT IS
Uh, yes 😂
I love your reviews because you really give context of the time period when the game launched. Most channels that review old games totally treat them as something that was lunched today and criticize the hell out of them, even though they were ground-braking at the time.
I like the fact that Victor receives just a little amount of money for most of his jobs. It's explained right in the beginning, when he tells that he's helping his brother Pete (this is where the rest of the money is going). I know it stops making sense once Lance and Vic gets rich; anyway it makes your character more realistic and the experience more immersive.
The money is for treating Pete Vance's asthma not Lance Vance BTW. Anyways that's a really good theory.
@@sreenaths6829 Thanks!
Love your reviews dude. VCS is one of my fav GTA's for sure!
I hope the rumored re-releases of LCS & VCS on PS4 happen soon, can't wait to replay them again :)
Lol you were saying
Why did it sell so badly I mean liberty city stories is good but not as good
What do you mean? It’s was the 4th best selling psp game
WoofWoofGam3r but in gta standards that is very bad about 6 million compared to gta lcs 11 million and vice city 17.5 million and gta v 70 million and counting
Ace .c those sale
Numbers are still pretty good
Considering it was exclusively only for psp for awhile, snd warranted a sequel plus a port of chinatown wars
Ace .c gta 5 90 million
I don't know but when I was 10 I saw the two games and thought "This one must be cooler cuz the letters are in red" lol
Got a ps2 and this game for christmas 2007 when I was 9 years old (awesome parenting lol). I didn't understand anything they were saying and I sucked but I had an awesome time. I remember I didn't want to progress in the game because I hated that you couldn't enter the army base freely anymore.
jonasv19 if you unlock the outfit ‘fatigues’ you can enter the base and freely explore
Lol who cares? It’s a game
Both Vice Cities are the greatest
2is Toomuch Agrees. I would love to have another game set in the classic Vice City maybe set in 1982 or 1988 with a brand new character, storyline etc. But that will never happen.
I've noticed that vice city being the best is a popular opinion but nobody ever states their reason and I'm curious
Christian Black Atmosphere, soundtrack and story are the most commonly cited reasons from what I see.
@@chrisdelgado4621 yeah recently I was thinking about this installment in the series and I came around to the same conclusion it's a great game for the reasons you've stated when. It came to vice city and San Andreas Rockstar definitely got the 80s and 90s atmospheres correct
Christian Black I prefer SA, IV and V myself due to the more refined gameplay and bigger worlds, but I can definitely see why one would pick VC or even VCS as their favorite.
Why hasn’t Rockstar made a mobile port of this, yet? I want the entire 3D era of GTA on mobile, dammit.
The have man, I got san andres on my ipad!
Darcy McIntosh
But they don’t have this one.
Spencer Whiteway VCS and LCS and ps4 too
Me too :(
Hesusio bruh they got that name because they introduced fully three dimensional game graphics. Before it wasn’t as 3D and it was top down. That’s why. It’s only used to clarify the games before GTA 3 and after.
saving and loading the game actually stops the enemy gangs from attacking your properties. also if the properties aren't already damaged then they can survive one attack so it easier to just let the gang damage it and repair it later.
People use to like San Andreas because it was big, innovative and had a awesome storyline with great characters.
But, VCS has everything San Andreas has, but in a portable console. That's what makes VCS so phenomenal.
It's a real shame Rockstar Leeds never got to make anything for the Ps Vita. The Vita would have had a massive boost if it had an exclusive GTA game at launch.
At least the Vita got a uncharted exclusive
@@someguy8951 i actually wouldn't mind that game being rebuilt for Ps5. I actually enjoyed Golden Abyss more than Uncharted 1.
Great video and awesome game. I bought it on the PSN and I was pleasantly surprised by how great the game was (San Andreas controls in Vice City setting)
After playing Vice City Stories, despite Rockstar confirming it, I just cannot see Vic Vance being the one who was killed in the beginning of Vice City, seems like it was Pete Vance for me.
After all the bull$#it he's been through, with the betrayal of Jerry Martinez, their conflict with the Mendez brothers, with the ongoing problems he's having with Lance and the death of his love Louis, no doubt in my mind he was done with everyone and Vice City.
The first chronological GTA game is made last... while the first GTA game is chronologically last. Kinda a cool wrap up for the 3D era.
i'm still mad with Rockstar for what they did to Vic and Johnny.

They usually kill the characters if they don’t sell well
Same. Both characters got killed in ways the protagonist didn’t wanna be involved in. Vic didn’t wanna be involved with the drugs trade yet did anyway and it got him killed. Johnny didn’t wanna be involved with Ashley and her meth addiction, yet he did anyway, causing him to grow an obsession with Ashley, leading to him confronting Trevor and dying. And the sad part about this is, it’s the protagonists’ closest friends that got them killed. Lance got Vic involved in the drugs trade and Ashley got Johnny caught up in the meth addiction
@@SuperDuperNick no
@@zerogamer935 u r stupid vcs sold most copies in less time.
still no talks on the "warehouse" mission where you should move the explosives on a timer? that shit is hard AF
True af
you think *Boomshine Blowout* blowout was hard. Well try THESE mission instead:
- *Jive Drive* : its easy on PSP due to "steady aim" feature, but its fcking hard on PS2 due to wobbly analogue + lack of "steady aim"
- *Hose The Hoes* : put out the fire from your Brothel. Worse yet, the Girl's health deplete so fast & it could lead to mission failure if you're not fast enough to put out the fire
- *Unfriendly Competition* : first part no problem. BUT, the real deal on these mission is during the Pool shootout sequence. this place is crawled with enemies & most of them are using AK's + Uzi's and it could nerve racking for beginner
- *High Wire* : catch the moving car with magnet attached chopper. Damn
- *Purple Haze* : retrieve the drugs with time limit, CHECK. disorienting visual screw, CHECK. cops intervene, CHECK
- *The Exchange* : same as Jive Drive, but this time using Sniper
- *Domo Arigato Domestoboto* : CRACK THE SAVE (code 8423)
- *Light My Pyre* : you have to protect Lance + he's driving horribly & you could accidentally kill him if you're not careful
Japije 01
The domestobot mission was fun because of how unique it was
Now that you remind me of Hose the Hoes, I remember how much of a nuisance that mission was. I'm pretty sure that I ended up using a trainer (VCS Cheat Device) just for this mission.
Japije 01 I agree 100% with you
I've only completed this game one time when it came out, but i clearly remember being unable to finish the mission with the domestoboto and asking my older brother to do it for me 😄
IMO probably the best game of this generation of GTA, which says a lot. Combines the athestics of vice city with the gameplay of San andreas, which imo more than makes up for kind of a weak main character. Its sad poor sales and significant licensing including the Phil Collins concert mission means we won't get a mobile version...
I have to disagree with Vic being slightly weak, I prefer him to Tony Cipriani and probably Tommy Vercetti.
Vic is weak? Bro he’s the most human 3D universe protagonist, AND he is badass
@@someguy8951 He's better than Tony, and I actually enjoyed him as protagonist, but his motivations I found kind of weak for a GTA protagonist. I played it again, and yeah, he's a bit of a pushover and admittedly a little whiny. That said, he's pretty well rounded which is more than I can say for Tommy.
@@iamthepeppernator His motivations were better than Tommy's by a mile . He actually wanted to provide for his family and Luise and was against drugs in the beginning and then reluctant to do drug dealing later . And what about Tommy ? your average Tony Montana Knock off with no vulnerabilities that just wants power over the entire city....how does that make him any different from the Mendez brothers ? it seems that storytelling improved in rockstar games along the years
I want GTA VI to be set in the 80's in Vice City, I know it wouldn't fit well but it would be awesome to revisit Vice City in hd
Modern game graphics with the 80s looks an feel would.be insane lol
I started watching your channel yesterday and I was like "why is there no VCS review". And now here it is
The empire building feature, and the city enviroment is what makes me love this game.
For people that want to replay these games;
In chronological order:
1984 - Vice City Stories
1986 - Vice City
1992 - San Andreas
1998 - Liberty City Stories
2001 - Grand Theft Auto III
2009 - Chinatown Wars
VCS is my favorite GTA game ever. Do Chinatown Wars next!
Oh yeah, right
These two games have to get on the pc
Definitely. They would be awesome with smooth framerates.
@Tinyman No you can't, yes you may play LCS on PC using an emulator like blustacks, but VCS is a console exclusive, you can't play that on PC.
Kaledrone /\ you can download Both LCS and VCS on free roms then use ppsspp to play the game
You can play vcs and lcs on pcsx2 at 60fps...
I mean they were working on a PC port of this game until it stopped
Best in the series, where as LCS was best selling VCS was the most underrated and was the real GOAT
And the thing is that the original Vice City was meant to be expanded upon and have more to it for you know some features were added into VCS
People hated Liberty City Stories, that was more underrated
5:29 I like that, that little play on dialouge, it makes your reviews more comical like a mainstream review
"This is army not the navy!" Vic is NOT a marine...
USMC isn't a Navy either, pal.
One of my favorite moments from Rdr2 atm is when I was talking to John Marston and Arthur made fun of him for not beeing able to swim :D
Now I’m convinced that I need this game and my cousin’s PS2
You're not wrong
I never closed porn too fast
69 likes coincidence I think not
VCS V-Rock is best V-Rock.
When Dio or Ted Nugent came on 😊
Whenever Cousin Ed would be a dick to Lazlo 😂😂😂
darknid159 those killed me every time they came on 😂😂
All day
To be honest I never played it before, just Vice City. I play on an emulator now. Some details are better than in Vice City like colors of the neon lights, the sky is more vibrant, some of the music is even better and the whole atmosphere in general is epic. I like that it´s possible to make Gang Wars and recruit people just like in San Andreas. Ambush buildings and conquer territory. But to bad Rockstar did not pay any attention to this anymore... a good PC Port and port for newer consoles would be great.
Wish they did a San Andreas Stories.- maybe with Claude returning.
This game is criminally underrated.
Same case with Liberty City Stories
If they make it on mobile i'll get a credit card and actually buy a game once in my life...
So you pirate games? That's lame
Dominik Fuck it dude, i can't have a credit card...
They Made vice city port for mobile ? Not Enough ?
Dominik 🤡🤡🤡
@@dominik5682 Depends. Like BO II on steam still charging 110$ for both the game and season pass. A 9 year old game?!
There's also planes in the game and an amphibious ATV called Splitz-6 ATV. Once you finish the Beach Patrol side-mission you can swim forever without losing any stamina or dying. There's a trick where you can save the game, then restart the console and you won't get raided or attacked by any gangs anymore until you attack them again.
EDIT: There's also BMXs in this game and quad bikes AND a special unique helicopter that you can buy from the top of your Suite called Little Willie - it has machine guns on it.
It's most beautiful 3D era GTA aswell, especially on PS2.
Loved this game! Completed it so quickly, Vance's voice change in Vice City was a bit jarring however
It was the best on the psp.
This game is legendary.
But people dont know.
I don't know man, the PSP wasn't a failure
It's 2020 and we are still waiting for VCS on Android and ios...

Stop wasting your time because it’s not coming
VCS is a under rated classic
While it still didn't offer all the features San Andreas did this was one of the best GTA games by far in terms of story and gameplay. It also had superior side missions to even GTA 4 or 5.
The IOS/Android release should’ve happened almost 3 years ago
Sadly it didn’t
This game was a big part of my childhood, I remember playing this on my PSP
This is one of the most underrated games ever, was such a good send off to the 3D (best) era of GTA. I wish they would port this and LCS to PS4.
Yeah, LCS is underrated too
This is not underrated have u any that it is underrated
@@misterhimura036 Definitely not as Underrated than VCS tho
Finished it in a few weeks and wanted more fun missions and lots of action great review
They need to make North Yankton Stories for PS vita or a Bosnian Stories for Niko Bellics past
Viva La Tierra Loca
Definitely
Viva La Tierra Loca
Or switch if Nintendo will let them. Hell a New 3ds game would be good too in the style of Chinatown Wars, but I'd prefer a Switch GTA game
Viva La Tierra Loca wtf?
Niko Bellic is Serbian
I wish you could've said more about the soundtrack. The game wouldn't truly be the same without it, more than any other GTA game.
Not to mention, there's the tweaks to the map that makes it a ton better than Vice City. For starters, mainland is no longer a dump, Vice City is goddamn gorgeous at night, and the addition of a lot of small things to make the map less empty.
If you save game at one of your spots the attacks stop
You wont see this but thank you for this review man. Just got this game on my psp go and you told me everything I needed to know to get me to want to dive deeper into this gem!
Love this game! This game and vice city taught me 80s had the best music!
I had it on psp and lived it. Recently bought the Ps2 version and I am playing on my old ps2 with wireless controllers. Magic!
One of the best GTA'S and the most Underrated.
*WILL YOU DO A GRAN TURISMO SPORT REVIEW* please?
The most underrated rockstar game in general. This game is amazing.
That's The Warriors, GTA Liberty City Stories man, Rockstar does not only has Vice City Stories, it exists another Stories game
I just beat San Andreas on Android and was looking for another GTA to play, I was going to do GTA:VC but I think after looking into this game I'll start playing VCS next. Thanks for the review!
It's not on android
@@jakelarkin2990 It used to be, I don't know if it still is but that's how I played it.I played it on Samsung Galaxy Note 8.
@@DREAMSINDIGITAL you must played it on ppsspp
@@baymisafir1605 yes I did play it on the ppsspp emulator
That mission where you kill zombies in a Romero-like movie is fucking great
vcs also has alot of blur compared to lcs i think developers use that as a trick to hide and smoothen jagged edges and textures which helps games age well
they honestly need to put them both on the ps4 for digital like sanandreas and vice because they were both hidden gems in a way
This is personally the first gta game I've ever played back on the PS2 and I've never managed to finish it. And around ten years later I started to replay it again on my brother's old PsP this time, and this is freaking amazing. I almost finished the story and I'm going for the 100%!
Good luck getting the 100% because it's terrible
@@someguy8951 why?
@@joshuaortmeyer291 There are just so many side events and some of them are really tedious and boring like the paramedic missions
@@someguy8951 I already did these ones :) Actually I just got the 99 balloons, the special stunts, the rodeo challenges, the hunter side mission and the main missions left I think. And it was not really that boring actually, these missions aren't very long. I think I'm at 86% of the game or something like that. It's actually probably the only gta game where I actually have fun trying to make the 100%. I really like how the red balloons are positioned, they can be bound to a building, or be positioned at the ground floor. I really have fun trying to find all these balloons by flying with the helicopter all around the map trust me ^^
@@joshuaortmeyer291 I'm guessing you've 100% the game now?
The first ever GTA game that i played on my old PS2 :') Nostalgia
Few mistakes here.
-The driving is different from vice city massively in regards to traction
-You actually can crouch in vice city, San Andreas did not invent it in the series.
Your reviews are so good, i loved this game, Vic Vance and his hilarious brother Lance were an awesome bunch of characters, definitely an underrated game that i should probably get around to completing :)
Grand Theft Auto Vice City Stories is based on Miami Vice
I love this game a lot! I played it so much on my PSP back in the day but never completed the story but I'm definitely gonna have to get this classic again and beat it. Everything about it is great, the music, the theme, the main character, the story, Lance is fucking great he's always so funny. You always do great reviews mate.
My idea is that the Vic in Vice City was a body double, and Lance just lied about it to use Tommy.
for me, Vic went back to Dominican republic to take care his brother Pete and he also quit being a criminal because he didn't like being one
I like this
TheSasGaming 2nd I been saying the same shit people don’t listen
Subscribed recently. You have very good videos. Unlike other reviwers who trashtalking and go offtopic, you talks straight about game pros and cons with addition of own opinion and sort of story of development/reception. Sadly its very underrated channel. Good Luck !
You just have to reload your savegame and the attacks stop until you attack a business.
It just seems like Rockstar put black people on a pedestal back then cuz honestly only the black protagonist could swim during a 3D stage. And honestly as a black man I'm honored cuz I can't swim to save my life. Thank you rock for believing in me.
Love VCS, it's in my top 3 GTA games (behind the original VC which is my all-time favourite). Massively enjoyable, unlike LCS which I've tried to complete multiple times but it's just too boring. And I feel like they one-upped the atmosphere of Vice City by putting neon lighting everywhere and having an arguably better soundtrack with Phil Collins. In The Air Tonight should be in every GTA game. I was hoping VCS would come to PS4 as an upscaled classic and despite getting classification for it, it just never ended up releasing which is a shame. I would've loved to play it in HD. I guess I could use PCSX2.
I still think it's a shame that we never got a San Andreas stories type game. Playing as one of the other main characters are even a character that wasn't in the game. But alas we got GTA 4, which for the time was a great game.
I'll go ahead and say what reviewers can't: Vice City Stories runs great on an emulator. Definitely worth it if your pc can handle pcsx
i have lcs on my ps2 and i was wondering if i should invest in vcs as well or torrent it on my pc what do you think?
I think ppsspp is easier on lower spec PCs
Vic lance is such an underrated protagonist hate how no one ever talks about him 😔
You should review Saints Row 2! Excellent sandbox game. Just make sure to play one of the console versions, as the PC port is bad.
The other SR games are also pretty great, but not as good and varied as 2
One of the few open world games I've 100% completed!
One thing I like about VCS is that it starts on the opposite island something LCS couldn't do
Vice city was more beautiful looking in this game.
14 years later and no Mobile port or pc port and still no Gta 6. SMH. If ur going to release gta LCS for mobile the u should have released vcs too. If ur going to take 4 months time to release a gta Update then u should multitask and do other stuff
They can't due to Phill collins
Worth mentioning it will be out on PS4 soon! :)
James C Will it, do you have a source cause this potientally made my day. :D
The news came out late last year, they have registered the ratings for the games on PS4 - www.psu.com/news/gta-vice-city-and-liberty-city-stories-ps4-release-leaked/ - hopefully it will come sometime before Red Dead 2
If it does, it'll probably have cut music since the game is over ten years old.
@@Thorpe Unfortunately it's probably true... 😔
With 60% less soundtrack and in the air tonight mission cut
This was the first one I played before being a huge gta fan, it will always remain my favourite one.
If they didnt cancel gta sa stories that probably would be the best gta game there is
Overrated*
They never cancelled it. It's literally too big of a game to fit on psp at the time
Your making awesome interesting compelling engaging videos that need more recognition and I’m glad I fell upon your channel
San Andreas + vice city =VCS
