Vice City Review all wrong (i know it old)

I give this review a four. :xp: Actually more like a 1-2.

 

For the graphics section, because of the limitations of the PS2 they can't really increase the quality of them so you have to keep in mind what the system is capable of doing, so comparing it to metroid prime is not a good thing to do. MP didn't have to display nearly as much onscreen as GTA had to and was also working with a more a more powerful system.

 

To me the review came off as criticizing the game for being what it is; what it was made to do. You're playing the scum of the earth and the game is making you as close to actually being that scum as possible and you seem to dis it for doing its job.

 

A 2 for the story being redundant? ALL game stories are redundant. :D It's the continuation of the same game series. It kind of has to be about the relatively same things.

 

 

You just need to steer clear of the gamefaqs reviews. Most of the people on those boards scare me.

yeah well, apparently it is too mature (or whatever) for little kids to play.

 

Well, WTF are little kids playing a game like this in the first place for?

 

If you where the biggest gangstar in a city I don't think your going to be one of the nicest people so it adds to the game.

I have wondered that many a time ...

 

Anyway, if you check Gamerankings, the game has a very high score, and the lowest is 70%, with 98/99 scores 80% and higher.

 

Not my kind of game ... and I don't have a console, but it is supposed to be a great game - who cares what the haters think?

 

I play a bunch of M games ... do you think I let my kids even *see* them, let alone play them? Yeah, sure, at 6 and 7 they'd have lots of fun watching me play Postal 2 and pi$$ on someone ... but enough potty talk :rolleyes:

I've only played GTA a little bit at parties. But in those cases no one actually plays the game. They just run around beating people up and stealing their cares. Or sleeping with prostitutes and killing them afterwards. Whichever. :)

I like the GTA series. Currently playing GTA 3. Just for the fun of making pedestrians riot and giving them weapons TO riot.

 

Average time to live outside of a car with no cheats on: 30 seconds.

 

Ah... good times.

Rhett. I beg for your hand in marriage.

 

As far as the review goes... Nothing he said was incorrect, really. Perhaps with the exception of how he addressed the graphics (he's obviously a bit misinformed) and the missions. I think that Vice City is one of the most dynamic games I've played... At one end of the spectrum there is Diablo. At the other end, there is Vice City.

 

Beyond that, it's really just his opinion. And I can see where he's coming from.

 

Though, I freaking loved Vice City.

I let my 7 year old sister watch me play Soldier of Fortune 2, but she got bored and went away after about 10 minutes. :D

Wasn't Miami Vice one of the original GtA style games?

I'm talking about being on an atari old.

....

.... Miami Vice was a tv show in the 80's about 2 sexy vice squadmen, wearing totally fashionable clothes.

 

Was I the only person disappointed that Don Johnsons Heartbeat song wasn't in the playlist? :xp:
