Looks different gravy

Mmmmmmm.

Hope it's better than the disappointment that Vice City was.

looks the same as Vice City to me so far, apart from the bicycle...although if you can knock people off them then the anti-violence in games brigade will have a field day

Are you Insane? Vice City was possibly the best game ever to be released on the Play Station!

that was an alright game, if you we're into RPG type stuff as I was at that time!

I just didnt like the way that Vice City looked at all, compared to GTA3. Although I can comment too much on the gameplay, as I didnt play it for a while and I think my ex-flatmate must have lent it to someone as it disappeared from my collection long ago, the graphics were really off-putting. There seemed to be a constant blurring, and when driving at high speeds, you often failed to see stuff that was approaching you because of this.

must be the PS2 version then 'cos on the PC its as crisp as daylight, graphics are very decent and the gameplay is awesome...as is the general game!

I never noticed that on the PS2. Quality game

Really? I had the PS2 version, and going from GTA3 to Vice City seemed like night and day. Others agree:

The graphics in Vice City are superb, even going as far as surpassing those of GTAIII. They would have been better, however, if they hadn’t included so many dang blur effects, I would be happy. You’ll see what I mean. Sometimes, the blur effects get so unruly that you can’t even see what’s happening. This was a fault that plagued its predecessor, but Vice City succumbs to it in an even larger degree. This is unfortunate, since Vice City is so beautiful, but it becomes nearly un-see-able at times.

However, the famous GTAIII motion blur is back, and it's worse than ever: the entire game looks like Tommy took some kind of really bad acid. This feature can be turned off, and it's recommended you do so as soon as possible, but the blurring also hides some of the graphic plainness that's an unfortunate necessity of the game's huge environments.

To be fair, I never knew you could disable it. =)

If you had read the manual or looked at the options you'd know you can turn this effect off.

Edit: d'oh you know that now.

Why use my brain when I can just bitch and complain? =)
