Grand Theft Auto: Vice City is a game I played a poo poo ton when I was younger. It's still my favourite despite San Andreas being objectively better in nearly every regard :v:

Grace on the other hand, has never played a GTA game before, so why not introduce him with the game I'm most familiar with?

We're playing on the PS4 port, and just to spice it up and embrace chaos, we're playing with Pedestrians have weapons, Pedestrian Riot, and Mad Cars cheats activated, as well as anything we feel like throwing on! Tragically, the flying cars cheat doesn't work on the PS4, so there'll be no flying tanks :( Nobody's more broken up over that than I am.

Anyway writing OPs sucks so here's the episodes

I started with GTA 3, but Vice City was the game that really got me hooked on the series. As a kid, I spent a lot of time with the game just on pause listening to the entire VCPR in one go.

RIP Victor Vance, the protagonist of Vice City Stories. He dies and Vice City goes to poo poo and everyone starts killing each other.

Playing through the entirety of Vice City with those cheats on seems like it would be an incredibly miserable experience, but what do I know. I guess I'll keep an eye on this.

With the exception of a few already lovely missions becoming shittier, it's honestly way more fun than normal mode :v:

I remember when Vice City was first announced, gaming publications were falling all over themselves describing how awesome it would be. Rockstar was really hyping it up as a playable movie with Ray Liotta, Tom Sizemore, Dennis Hopper, Philip Michael Thomas, etc. all voicing the protagonist and prominent NPCs. You could shoot out tires and shoot people through car windows, the map was bigger, and everything was as 80s as humanly possible.

It's still a bit striking how primitive everything else is, though. For some reason it took Rockstar until GTA V to actually catch up to the rest of the world with autosaves, checkpoints, and on-foot combat.

I've never played Vice City, I went straight from GTA (the original one) to San Andreas, which I played to hell and back until I got to the super tedious final part. Looking forward to this!

To this day this remains the only game I ever 100%ed.

I'm really curious to see if all the story missions are completeable with those cheats on.

The biker getting yanked off his bike in the cutscene makes me afraid for all the missions with in-engine cutscenes near pedestrians. There's a good number of missions that rely on keeping NPCs alive.

There are no meaningful differences between Vice City with Pedestrians Have Weapons and Pedestrian Riot and actual real life Florida.

Best way to play San Andreas? Put on the pedestrians attack/weapon cheats and try to get one side of the city to another. So much fun, if only respawning was quicker and you could revive somewhere other than the hospital.

My favorite way to play GTA is just driving around and chilling while listening to the awesome soundtrack. Hearing "Crockett's Theme" on Emotion 98.3 while you drive along Ocean Beach in the rain at night is some good poo poo.

Yes, I am perfectly aware of the fact I am a complete weirdo who plays these games wrong. I don't even kill civilians on purpose! (I got bored of that as early as GTA III)

Grace, is this the game you're referring to?

(I just googled "jrpg blonde girl frying pan" and that's the only relevant thing that popped up.)

Let's Play GTA Vice City Episode 4 - Cop Have Boat

So with Mall Shootout, if you wedge a car in both entrances, the contact will get stuck on the way out and you can just unload on him. I promise that's what I was trying to do and I wasn't just ramming cars into hallways for no reason.

I have no explanations for anything else in the episode though.

Oh and by the way, that mission with the French guy? Yeah they made the same drat mistake you did. Honestly I'd put blame on Rockstar for that one.

I thought this game cleared your wanted rating when you started a mission, but I guess I'm thinking of Saints Row or maybe later GTAs or something.
