The only GTA I completed 99%. I have searched every hidden pack spot 5 times (the last 1% is ONE pack that must have bugged out..)

Two things 1) Tommys nameless cronies are named Harry and Lee. Tommy says their names when telling Sonny what happened at the deal 2) Tommy not being able to swim makes sense in universe. Alot of people from cities like NYC dont know how to swim. It surprises me to this day how many adults dont know or never learned how to swim. Plus being in prison for 15 years probably didnt help. I doubt Tommy ever went to the pool or beach to swim growing up in the 50s and 60s in Liberty City when he had been doing crimes or working at his father's print shop as a kid

(From Wikipedia) Meredith Curly Hunter Jr. (October 24, 1951 - December 6, 1969) was an American man who was killed at the 1969 Altamont Free Concert. During the performance by the Rolling Stones, Hunter approached the stage, and was driven off by members of the Hells Angels Motorcycle Club who were providing security and had agreed to prevent members of the audience from mounting the stage. He subsequently returned to the stage area, drew a revolver, and was stabbed and beaten to death by Hells Angel Alan Passaro.

Allegedly, the Housers offered Ray Liotta two options to be compensated for his work. He could be paid up front, or receive payment based on sales, (better idea). The Housers stressed to Ray what a big deal the game was gonna be, insisting the second option made more sense, but he wasn’t hearing it. Liotta accepted payment up front, and only realized the mistake he made once the game sold like crazy. Supposedly, he made it known to Rockstar he wasn’t happy with the deal, and they responded along the lines of, “we tried telling you dude.” Take this with a grain of salt, but this was what I read years ago pertaining to why Liotta and Rockstar hadn’t been on good terms since then.

Vice City is one of my favorite Rockstar games ever. Set in the 80s, with the inspiration of Scarface and voiced by the late Ray Liotta from Goodfellas. What's not to like in this game. Now GTA 6 is set in modern Vice City. Hope they bring some references, or hidden Easters from past Vice City.

VC was really ahead of the curve when it came to 80's Nostalgia, as it launched before that aesthetic became very mainstream and overdone as it felt like a loveletter to the era the devs grew up in. Also worth noting how influential Scarface was, because when it got it's own game in 2006 it was accused of being a Vice City clone lol Hope you cover it and it's weird poker game advertisements!

Please keep doing the long videos like this. I’ve enjoyed digesting this one during my commute the past couple days.

I'm turning 40 this year, I was completely in the key demographic when VC came out, and I remember my friend and I playing this game to death when it came out. Our first 100% play through took 24hrs 12minites!! We took notes on it, and our next play through more than halved that time. Vice City is my all time favourite game, whilst there are flaws to the game, but to me, it's perfection.

Diaz always reminded me of Tony especially his outfit stature and hot headedness ironically though Diaz is Colombian while Tony is Cuban and Tony claims he doesn’t like Colombians

The thing about GTA:VC is that it was pretty much the one game that finally made the rest of the corporate world understand how big of a deal this whole 'gaming' thing actually was in terms of dollar signs. It was so influential that it actually brought about the whole "80s retro" craze of the early 2000s and suddenly mainstream radio stations everywhere were playing Tears for Fears again. This was really noticeable when GTA4 rolled around because, by that time, the record companies had cottoned on to the fact that there was a lot of money to be made and were now charging top dollar for the rights to any of their music, meaning Rockstar had to settle for a soundtrack with much less star power.

I don't know what 80s craze you talk about. By 2000 half didn't care for ANY style or setting while trends were mainly modern, there was nothing from 80s left, people finally abandoning actual 80s leftovers like the flashy crazy colored tracksuits and pastel and finally going through 90s styles and right into 2000+ modern stuff. Everything was sci-fi futuristic space themed either brushed aluminum and pop styles mixed together. People either wore baggy clothing or suits that looked like they are business people but the skirts were short and pants had more pockets, overall casual clothing. When you look at what mainstream was there was nothing 80s at all about it. In old GTA games we didn't care for the styles but rather the story and gameplays and it happened that it managed to cover styles only because it basically "stole" everything from old movies really. Speaking of gameplay and stories which today's games have none of it. Everything is what we already seen for decades copy-pasted and packed into a agenda called "pretty graphics" everything online locked and milked dry. The 80s styles, audio tapes, vinyl records etc are only a recent comeback, maybe 5 to 10 years tops. Still it's minority. There is more 80s style NOW then late 90s. By 2000s there was nothing and Vice City didn't changed on that. I would say that GTA6 is way too late by a decade AGAIN, because now it's more popular the 90s and 00s, Y2K and Japanese pop styles. The only place you will find the 80s are in a dumpster. So there is zero trend chase here or they like I said failed by a decade.

It's amazing just how much of Vice City -- from mission storylines, to aesthetics, to individual character designs and even building interiors are directly lifted from the show. I mean even aside of the more obvious, on-the-nose references like the pair of undercover cops who show up in the VC version of the iconic white Testarossa. It's a good thing.

8:44 Having Philip Michael Thomas included as a voice actor is the most appropriate thing I could imagine. If they’d found space for Don Johnson somewhere too, that’d be too perfect. Still, having a co-star from the actual Miami Vice TV show in this game (which is very obviously modeled after the show) is super cool!

I usually put them on while driving to work (listen to them not watch lol) or when I'm just chilling. Ive never been able to take titles like "A complete look at ..." or "the history of ... " seriously when you glance over and see the video length is like 10 - 20 minutes. Of course the amount of available information is going to play a role as well, no point in an hour plus video if there's only 15 minutes of information padded out.

wow, thank you for this amazing flashback. Got it at 12 years from my 30y old fat nerd neighbour back then. God bless him. This is by far the most atmospheric game ever. San Andreas was of course a game with more stuff to do, but man Vice city got a special place in my Heart. The best GTA game ever.

My mum bought it for me on launch day, she came home with it and I didn't know.... I played it all night longggggg! lol. It will always be my favourite because it was one of the few games I could bond with my mum over due to the music. It was packed full of music from her childhood and teenage years as she turned 20 in 1986. It also had a massive cultural impact and was the reason why 80s music made such a big comeback and is loved today, I think that fact goes so overstated. The only GTA game I've ever completed as well, and it was the one everyone at school was talking about too. GTA:SA at the time wasn't that big of a deal, at least not here in the UK, it was a slow grow to it's popularity today. I mainly loved it for MTA Race mod a few years later, but then they ruined it with all the RPG stuff.

Probably my favorite game of all time…

This is the best GTA to date, for me.
