GTA: Vice City
 

Im thinking of getting this for the PC. Are their any advantages of this version compared to PS2? Its now only £19.99 on Games website.

Re: GTA: Vice City
 

No there are no advantages over the PS2 version apart from higher resolutions (and as you have an MX420 card, so it's hardly worth trying to up it) and mouse control for combat, which is not the best anyway.

Re: GTA: Vice City
 

So its PS2 version yeah?

Re: GTA: Vice City
 

I'm sorry but the PC version is far superior, even with your rusty old GF4MX :D

The game's hardly that demanding, were talking DX7 here. Plus you can listen to your own mp3's in game on PC. Then there's all the mods for it too!

Re: GTA: Vice City
 

Ok so its PC then. Will my Graphics card be able to handle it?

Re: GTA: Vice City
 

Yeah, on low resolutions is should be ok because I used to play GTA3 on an MX440.

Re: GTA: Vice City
 

Should be smooth at 800x600, and 1024x768 if you ease back the draw distance a little ;)

Re: GTA: Vice City
 

My res is set to 800x600 anyway.

Cheers simicer07. It even says that it has additional options to customize the game.

It's a great game mate, well better on PC than on PS2. Great graphics and gameplay, controls are good too on the old keys!

Re: GTA: Vice City
 

Strangely enough, I first started on GTA3 when I had a PS2 a few years ago and since then I can't play any GTA game using the keyboard, I have to use a joypad.

It was great when I first played GTA3, although I remember being a little shocked at the level of violence, quite used to it now. :D

Re: GTA: Vice City
 

from time to time I play Vice city on my laptops Radeon 7000 (Geforce 2 equivelent) it looks less nice than it does on my main pc and does slow down when theres a lot going on but its still nice.

Re: GTA: Vice City
 

I run gtavc on my Radeon 9200 SE and I do get some lag but if i draw the distance right back and loose some of the brightness it tends to run ok.


My main problem is this goddamn Echo i get sometimes on Halo and GTA VC of sounds through my Ac97 on board sound card which drives me nuts sometimes.

Right got it on PC, but now im looking for some cool mods. Anyone got any good sites?
