Vice city isn't as good as i remember
I honestly can't get into the 3d era games, I didn't grow up with them and the gun combat aged bad
>>750172646Truthfully, it's carried hard by the music
>>750173132i played it when younger it sucks still now
>>750172646Somehow it feels worse and more jank than gta3.
It's the worst gta maptwo long islands with jack shit to do, retardedly huge beach, but i guess the shitty race track at one end of it is something.helicopters can't get more than probably a few hundred feet of alt, planes too. "downtown" is a total waste of space, there's a huge golf course you can't play golf on, the ammunations only have like 5 items each including armor, can't swim in a fucking game set in florida surrounded by water, no customizing vehicles, import/export of vehicles doesn't let you select from all the cars like 3 did.other anon was right in that the soundtrack was most of the charm
Vice City is almost perfect. If you remove the riot, jury intimidation, and golf course missions, just about perfect. It needed 5-10 good missions to flesh things out. If you remade it, all you'd need to add would be the option of hanging around the Malibu, getting drunk, banging chicks, and stuff like that. VI will half three times the content and half the soul.
It's less jank than 3 and I like the characters more. I think LC is the better map but I enjoy playing VC more
>>750172646>Good game badIs this the newest troll strategy? That's so sad.
>>750176306It actually was kind of mid. GTA III was more exciting and groundbreaking and San Andreas just blows VC out of the water in terms of game design.
And yet, GTA 3 is better than I remember.
>>750176856Playing the series for the first time. I found 3 boring as shit and was glad when it was over
>>750176113whats wrong with the golf course missions? the way i finished one last time i played was pure kino
>>750176901Hmmm...simply put, I disagree.
>>750176306Its this stupid mentality where nostalgia fags need to play a game they enjoyed 15+ years ago and see if it's still just as fun as they remembered when they were kids.The dumbasses are surprised when it doesn't feel as fun, so they call it bad.
>>750176994I really wish these dumbasses were smart enough to realize the reason they don't enjoy old games anymore is because they are jaded fucks that find nothing fun.
>>750177056I like gta 3 though
>>750176856what were they fucking thinking with TRAILS: ON
>>750177175Imagine turning trails off. Couldn't be me.
>>750177375imagine releasing the game with TRAILS: ON
>>750172646Bro games in general don't hold up at all unless it's pure gameplay like Mario or Tetris.Tried played Mass Effect and Oblivion recently, both absolute unplayable ass.
>>750177591Oblivion was never good.
>>750177636oblivion is a fantastic game you're just a nigger
>>750178230Go away, Todd.
>>750177375i still don't know why turning them off fucks with the colors
It's pretty good overall, but the AI is shit and the controls are janky. It's annoying you can't walk and use m4 at same time.It excels in ambience, music and whackiness, but falls hard by today's standards.8/10 when it came out and 6.5/10 today.
>>750178350The trails are always trailing, when you layer the same color ontop of itself it multiplies and becomes brighter.
>>750172646i played them all again recently and VC was pretty great and second to 3 for meSA was my favorite as a kid but felt like a slog playing it again, especially right after the first two with relatively tight maps
>>750177375Trails looks great and like shit at the same time
>>750173425One thing that V has that make the previous gtas miss is the dynamic music that plays during missions and cop chases. The most memorable part of the game for me was flying in the sky during sunset and listening to the flight theme. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2t2RWDdXm5Uhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKSOhjLvf-s&list=RDsKSOhjLvf-s&start_radio=1
>>750178279say that to my face
>>750175808>can't swim in a fucking game set in florida surrounded by waterany time you get in a boat it's a gamble unless it's scripted to drop you off on land
>>750178640I replayed all the 3d games recently and found I disliked 3 more, appreciated vc more, and had an absolute blast for probably my tenth story playthrough of san andreas
>>750172646It was made in 12 months, had cut content and was basically unfinished
>>750173132It's got nothing to do with "aging". There is no such thing. When you play an older game it goes without saying that some things will be different. I grew up in the 90s and if I picked up a game from back then that I haven't played, then it would be just me playing a game from that time period. Whatever came after has nothing to do with it.
>>750176195Pretty much this. Both pale in comparison with SA. Only upside VC has over SA, and even that's debatable, is the sovl.
>>750181231I think that the business missions you need to do to unlock the finale are less egregious than the gang war shit SA forces you to do
>>750173132I didn't play them growing up either, they're mostly just bad. San Andreas I think is fine, though, it's at least functional and firefights are punchy enough even if it's psuedo-arcade by the standards of every other game in the franchise. Before San Andreas, just complete ass controls. After San Andreas, just boring physics-driven controls.
>>750172646It's the only good gta, like it has like 5 fun missions. Guess the guy who worked on them was fired and moved to volition, hasn't seen any fun mission in this slop since
>>750172646Same, III and SA still BLAST but somehow I just can't get into VC any longer. Even the music, that I used to put above the others, doesn't do it for me anymore.Especially the second half of the game just feels like a drag to play.
>>750172646I like it a lot, except for one thing.The air plane mission.Good fucking lord someone needs to be fired for that shit.>>750173425I'm not even going to deny that. I love the 70's and 80's music, and blasting billie jean at the player the first time you jack a car is just magical.
>>750181813>Good fucking lord someone needs to be fired for that shit.I thought it was fine, on gamepad at least. A lot of those infamous GTA missions are like, fine, really.
I've always found 3 better.
>>750173425Maybe but that alone makes it the best GTA to just drive around
played it 20 years ago and remember it sucking then
>>750182585very sad to imagine the type of autistic freak who wouldnt enjoy vice city back then
