- Let's do a Side by Side Graphics Comparison of the Video Game Grand Theft Auto Vice City Stories. Compare Frame Rate and Making of Compared between Playstation 2, Playstation Portable, Playstation 3, PC Gaming, PCSX2, and PPSSPP emulators. Get ready for this epic showdown of Console vs Console vs Gaming PC vs Handheld when I dive deep into the history of the Vice City Stories game and look at the Video game Frame by Frame. I will show you which version is the best. Usually, the PS2 is worst vs Xbox, but there is no Xbox here. So will the PS2 triumph? We will see. Also, let's see how this Mod for San Andreas that converts it to Vice City Stories will work.
Will this happen in this Epic Side by Side? Let's find out together. Personally, I love making these Side by Side videos because I always enjoyed seeing comparisons of newer games, but there were never comparisons of Playstation 2, Xbox, and Gamecube era games. That's why I created Side by Sides. Now of course there are tons, but I was one of the first. Please let me know in the comment section which version you grew up with and which one you currently prefer. Thank you for reading my 250 words UA-cam suggestions for good Search results.

Almost got a speeding ticket for how fast I clicked on this video!
Hahahaha. Dear lord. It will be there when you get home. Hahaha.
@@RookerVision LOL. Keep up the good work, man!
VCS is the most underrated GTA game ever. A true gem. I'd love to get a proper pc version, or a Definitive Edition on both Stories.
Sometimes engine fails and bugged out some hilerious errors but agreed best PSP game imo.
@TenAte108 kinda true
@TenAte108 that's a dream that will never come true
@TenAte108 oh boy im down for that
@TenAte108 saints row?
The PSP games were absolute technical marvels for the time
They looked as good as PS3 titles.
@@TRACKSTARRR I know, but they’re definitely impressive. 😂
In some ways they looked better than 3 and Vice City. I enjoyed seeing those settings done with san Andrea's like graphics. I think the character models look better than San Andrea's too.
@@TRACKSTARRR Except God Of War, Coded Arms, Crisis Core FF7, Parasite Eve 3, Gran Turismo, they look as good, if not, even better. I probably forget another one.
God Of War Chains Of Olympus i remember one part (close to the end) where it looks just like PS3-PS4 kind of graphics.
@@TRACKSTARRR If you play on real hardware instead of an emulator the graphics are more aprecciable imo.
I dont think too many Wii games look very good, maybe one of the last Wii games probably. Like i said before, i dont remember very well so i probably forget something, but i was so impressive with Chains Of Olympus, especially the last level. It still looks great.
The game had Phil Collins. Enough said
@TenAte108 it's not his fault him and Rockstar have a good relationship. There are a lot of songs that expired I wouldn't be surprised if it had just a few left
@TenAte108 if your blaming Phil Collins it's pretty stupid Remember it's a 10 year license deal. It expires they may have a hard time getting it back but GTAO makes them enough money. I wouldn't blame Phil or Rockstar I would blame take two
@TenAte108 Liberty City and Vice City Stories are being ported over to PC a cording to the Nvidia leak
I doubt VCS will be released again.
Gimmick
“Ppsspp”😂😂😂😂😂you really enjoyed that
Pi pi es es pi pi
LOOOOOL
☠️☠️☠️
Like a marching soldier lol
@@zesha_dani AHAHHHAHAOAOHAA
Just read the comment while He Said it
This game is one of those gems of product that is ill-treated by its parent company . They removed it from online stores and never bothered to fix the music licensing issues that caused its removal
Very true. I bet it will come back eventually
I gotta say this game probably has the greatest licensed soundtrack of any piece of media ever released. I genuinely feel that it is a step above Vice City's soundtrack, and we all know how good that was.
in theory it would be nice to have remastered versions of LCS & VCS, but in reality they'd probably just have censorship and a bunch of missing music
Gee I wonder what that reminds me of
LCS is possible
But VCS, no
@@pinospin9588 why
Yes I agree with you
@@haziqqsiuu8584 LCS don't really bound by any music license (if there are, they're negligible)
However, VCS amount of licensed music is only behind VC (even greater than SA) and also Phil Collin's concert, worst sale of all GTA 3D make the chance to make it appear on other platform is almost 0%
You really keep your promise, thank you for hearing your fans. You're the best UA-camr ever!
Damn son. Thank you so much.
@@RookerVision you're welcome!
Some engine and explosion sounds were changed when it was ported to PS2.
I played it on my psp back in the day and it was so good
PSA: If you are playing it with emulators 60 FPS, very early mission "Boomshine Blowout" becomes impossible because timer in the mission goes twice as fast! Set it back to 30 FPS for that mission.
The same thing applies to "Hose the hose" mission as well.
Nice vid as always. Loved the PSP version, probably my sencond favorite GTA game (after VC). Vic Vance was also my favorite character.
You can remove the blur effect, in the settings, on the ps2 version.
Always a pleasure to see more awesome comparisons. Keep it up!
Thank you very much
@@RookerVision you're welcome bro☺
@@RookerVision been waiting. for SO long for this video.
hope they remaster this game alongside Liberty City Stories and chinatown wars
This, i thought It would have been a given at this point
Gta advance would be interesting but china town wars would have to be in some sort of hd universe thing
I hope not
I love this game and your videos. VCS needs to be remastered so badly
Yesssss but this never going to happen just a dream😥
idk if i'd want a remaster after what they've done to the trilogy
@Totoroto187 That was Grove Street Games, not Rockstar. If they would've done them in house it would be amazing.
PPSSPP with widescreen fix is even better and runs smoother than PCSX2 for some reason..
I would assume that maybe due to the rendering load. VCS on PSP loads far less assets and vehicles in at any given time than the PS2 does but theoretically on any modern PC or the Steam Deck that really shouldn't be an issue for either system. May just be a quirk.
Man, playing this on the psp was so good
It hurts that the VCS mod for GTA San Andreas never got finished
Does anyone know how much of the mod is/was completed?
@@jonathanparker1774 just a couple of missions
I really love your videos man and always look forward to them. Thank you for continuing to upload!
It's because of you guys that I keep going. Every nice comment motivates me to keep moving.
+1
Most Underrated GTA title. Also the last PS2 game Rockstar released.
Was waiting for this comparison from a long time! Btw what's ur next review going to be?
Hoped you enjoyed it. Next is Assassins Creed I think
@@RookerVision Can you do hot pursuit 2 if you havent already....
I may have. Not sure. Lol
@@RookerVision no you did not make a video on hot pursuit 2 :(
I like the PC, PPSSPP, and PCSX2 versions, the graphics are great in my opinion 😁👍
I remember getting this game on the ps2 without actually finishing vice city and my friends were telling me they played as an Italian guy with a Hawaiian shirt I was quite confused until I realized they were talking about vice city which it was my second gta game that I had but never finished it
Vice city stories is my favorite gta for me the original vice city game also i never finished the original vice city maybe i finish now the remastered version
PSP has better colors, PS2 has higher quality models and textures, the ultimate version is the PSP iso modded with PS2 assets that's available over at CDromance.
Dude, I love your channel. You do outstanding work on games I grew up with and really want to see!! Thank you so much :D
Thank you
It's always hard for me to tell which GTA I like better between GTA IV and GTA VCS. I grew up with VCS, and love every aspects of the game. And IV has that brilliant story, a great feeling, and realism.
( 4:03 What's the music please ?)
I've been waiting for this for soooo long
Thank you for making videos again! I can't get enough.
i hope the pc port is finished one day, i´d love to replay it with keyboard and mouse
Bless you man, here's hoping. Vice City stories is a true gem of a game, more people should play it.
The enhanced clutter was what sold me on the ps2 version.
Vice city was one of the coolest experiences on the psp, a little frustrating at times, but absolutely mind blowing the psp could run this!
Legit, I remember this game vividly not just for it's performance but it's ambition like sporting those mechanics from San Andreas with even less horse power. The PSP has balls.
good video, very useful info i didnt know
It's just sad that Rockstar refuses to buy again the rights to use the image of Phil Collins, as well as his and Genesis songs.
So we will never have a rerelease
Really wouldn’t be that hard to remove the songs, change the characters look and have someone else re record the lines lol
@@retro1x201 It would kill the game
He plays a great arc of the game
@@nickfmn never had a PSP and didn’t own it on ps2 so I’ve literally never played this game lmao
Another way to play this game is via PSTV especially modded one with sharpscale plugin. That plugin 4x integer scales to 1088 resolution and crops top 4 and bottom 4 pixels looks quite good. Especially with another right analog mod that adds proper camera controls.
GTA vice city stories probably only sold 4.5 million copies because everyone pirated games on PSP. It's one of the reasons why over 81 million PSP's were sold, but even the best sold game: GTA liberty city stories, only sold 8 million copies
The original ps2 version is in my opinion the best. The game just doesn't feel the same when it's very sharp and it isn't made in mind with it anyways. I also really like the orange atmosphere, (that was also present in the ps2 version of gta sa) in the ps2 version of gta vcs.
I was waiting this video.
Great job.
so you can't upscale resolution on PS3? the game runs in 480p instead of native PS3 resolution?
It scales it up. Just doesn't enhance it any.
2:11 music?
You left out emulation on the poopoobuttbuttstinkfart emulator
playing this game on my psp was my childhood
Good times for sure
I loved this game.. For me gta vice city was the best gta game because back in the day when it came out i was a child and i play sick to stay at home for school to play gta vc.. Gta sa is great too but gta vc is my favorite because when i see this game memories popping up in my head.. Its so nostalgic.. I am so glad that rockstar remaster those games of the 3d era
I love your videos! Keep it up!
They should have remastered Vice City Stories and LC Stories as well.
where can i download windows modded version shown in the video???
Vice City Stories ran at a playable frame rate on PS2 unlike Liberty City Stories.
Yeah. They polished it a bit more
They need this for PS4 or make it backwards compatible VCS and LCS
Good video bud, I really enjoyed that's someone did this. This games story is slept on.
I love the 1st game and Desmonds story
Gta vice city stories es mi favorito de todos los tiempos por la musica y la historia, mi hermano se lo termino sin ver guias ni hacer trucos en el juego, super recomendable
te amo
@@haziqqsiuu8584 si quieres jugarlo, descarga la conversion total de gta vice city stories para pc y instalalo en cualquier parte (no se requiere el gta sa para poder jugarlo)
Hey Rooker, just watched your republic commando comparison video. Maybe you could do Jedi Academy, Microsoft Xbox VS PS2 vs Windows and look at the lightsabers, blasters, and the marks the sabers leave on the walls. I noticed a huge difference from Xbox and Windows
I have one of the now rare backwards compatible PS3's to play the PS2 version of this game on.
I bought VCS digitally for PS3 sometime in 2018. They must've removed it afterwards
@@rocknroll_jezus9233 Yeah but your way better off having either a physical PS2 copy of the game or playing it on the PCSX2 emulator on a computer by the looks of how bad the emulation was for the digital version on PS3 as shown in the video and I say it's best done playing the original PS2 copy of the game on the older fully backwards compatible PS3 console. Hopefully if the trilogy Definitive Edition does well maybe just maybe they do the Stories Collection Definitive Edition with this game and Liberty City Stories. It'll be awesome however if Vic's character in the Vice City Definitive Edition is updated to look like he does in this game.
Ah yes been waiting for this
It actually looks pretty good on the psp screen
I'd argue that it is better.
I know that in the video it doesn't but in person it does.
I have the game on both PS2 and PSP and I find the opposite of what is shown in this video.
Weird. . .
At last , been waiting for months
Like To Remind You Guys For Those Who Don't Know, *GTA : RE VCS* Is A Port Of GTA Vcs For The Pc And _It's Lighter To Run Than PPSSPP_
( I Already It Tested With My Old Low End Pc From 2015 And It's Suprisingly Smooth With Slight Framedrop, The Only Time It Had A Problem Running It Is When There Is Too Many Stuff On Screen )
great comparison video! u deserve more subs! btw can you do one for lcs too?
It is made. Check out my Side by Side playlist. Thanks for watching
@@RookerVision Ill make sure to check it out then!
Nniiceeee thats how I like my Fridays!
Thank you
just curious, what's the San Andreas mod in question? I've always wanted to try this out!
Thank you ! I will play at PCSX2 for the exclusive content !
I wonder if they will remaster liberty city and vice city stories. I mean they have ue4 and they can probably reuse alot of assets from the trilogy remasters.
I think they will eventually
I hope they don't
@@JonnyHorseman what do you think they should do? Re release the originals, or just leave it on ps2 and psp. I guess it will hold it value that way?
@@llama_club0512 they're probably release a soulless cashgrab with missing music, uglier visuals and censored content
@@JonnyHorseman oh yea your probably right I wouldn't be surprised if the dismemberment has been removed in the trilogy
This game gives me back memories on the PSP
Wait, did they downgrade the red atmosphere in some times of day in the PS2 version? It looked like PSP version had more variations and looked way more vibrant and appealing.
They need to remaster this game right now
you can also use a mod in ppsspp using cheats function to make 2nd analog stick functional to control camera & even a 5hitty PC can run the PPSSPP version in 3x resolution with anti aliasing so yeah ppsspp version is the best one
I have been dying waiting for you to make this video to show gta fans this game existed and they should try them
20fps? THAT'S why it looks so stuttery on my plasma. I thought my tv was bad. Thank you so much for explaining. I could not find this information anywhere else. No amount of motion settings is going to fix 20fps.
I wonder, doubt it, but I wonder if rockstar is also secretly working on LCS and VCS definitive editions as well for a future release
No, the GTA Stories are never released on Xbox and Nintendo consoles.
Nice video, i wish the san andreas mod was finished lol, it looks the best IMO
How about a comparison of the “Rocky” games for PS2, Gamecube, and XBox.
Good idea
Good stuff. I have this one on the Vita.
Nice stuff!
On PPSSPP you can use 'Auto' option in resolution settings to get better resolution
This video is just perfect. Perfect.
This is the game I'm looking forward to the most in the Trilogy. The best of the 3 in my opinion.
Its not even in the trilogy. Thankfully.
@@JonnyHorseman oh yeah. I was Daydreaming. I was on about the original.
It's basically San Andreas with Miami Vice vibe in it.
Someone should continue and perfect the GTA Vice City Stories (San Andreas) MOD
THIS IS MY MOST FAVORITE CHANNEL ON UA-cam!
Massive compliment. Thank you. It's comments like this that keep me going
@@RookerVision I love you man, keep up the awesome work!
to me gta vcs is best played on ppsspp since the graphic is more clearer and it runs more smoother.
And there's a custom PPSSPP some people that makes hud HD and adds right stick controls
Woah,can't remember the last time I was this early.
I loved the say you said ppspp 1:49
lol. Thanks
Bruh this content is insanely good, I wish you upload more of this
Currently having a blast playing this masterpiece on ppsspp vice city is my favourite city in all of gta
where did you get the pc conversion mod from? Considering snakeass take-two took down the original download link.
I hope you'll compare the definitive versions
I may if I ever get a ps5 or series x
I don't know if you did but next video could you do them all upscaled and see what one looks better
This is the GTA I played the most and even today the PSP more colorful look is the one I prefer over other versions and like you said, once you add those cheats to use the right analog for the camera, R2 and L2, with HD textures for the UI, it's the best version to play on big displays, by far. Something similar happens for Tony Hawk's 8, the PSP version looks great, the PS2 is better, higher res textures, better models, better draw distances, etc and is just as colorful, where the PS3 version probably runs on unreal engine and it just looks so dull because of it.
PS: With a modded PSP you could force the CPU to always run at 333mhz and it did play this and other games so much smoother, the battery life was drastically reduced, but I didn't care.
Nice video! I was looking to buy it for ps2.
Did you get a copy I managed to find one I have to pay 100 bucks resale ps2
@@wslilsoldier575 yes, I have found one from ebay and payed 13.50€ without the map.
next do ''Devil May Cry 3'' it has so many ports. good luck :D
the pc mod needs to be finished ... we as a community can finish it but we need to watch out for take two takin everything down
Wait when the gta trilogy succeed hope for gta liberty and vice city stories hd collection whith enhanced
GOD NO!
@@JonnyHorseman what?
@@GhostGamer799 The last thing I want is a cashgrab of these 2 games "remastered"
@@JonnyHorseman well the way I see it we will see a another of remasterd games first is gta the trilogy and now red dead redemption and maybe gta 4 and max payne so yea it will happend
@@GhostGamer799 No they will not. And I hope Rockstar doesn't release more remasters if it means removing the originals from every storefront and censoring the old games.
As a gta fan, I approve of this video.
(Thia game is underrated)
same as liberty city stories, that game was also underrated
Thank you so much.
Love from Bangladesh bro 🤩😍🤩😍
A thank you from Idaho
You make best comparison 😉🤯
Still my favorite gta game i wish it got more love
PPSSPP is the best like you said. its the most clear , the colors and lighting are best.
Yup. Agreed
This and LCS should be dlc for the definitive edition
Would be amazing
So sad that since this game has the lowest sale and the license to use Phil Collins likeness, Rockstar won’t touch this game ever again.
You should do metal arms: glitch in system
Been wanting to see comparison of that in a proper way and keep hearing GameCube version is better for better particles and stuff but original Xbox has better stuff overall and I’m unsure if I believe there is a difference.
To be honest when i played on my PSP in the past i didn't have GTA , i first played the portable games on the Psvita but i must say after replaying the same games on the PSP it can still hold up well the PSVita just runs it more smooth , i think its with most PSP games ran on PSVITA tho because i had the same Experience with games Like Assassins Creed Bloodlines , Midnight Club LA Remix and Daxter
