Title
Is Vice City still worth playing now? Probably not, even though I like how the missions are quick and immediate compared to later GTA's. I didn't mind the lack of in-mission checkpoints at first, but there were too many times I had to restart due to a bug or the NPC getting stuck in corners. Sometimes, it was hard to understand what I was supposed to do for some missions. I was hoping this Definitive Edition to improve the controls and fix some of the bugs, but it looks like things got even worse.

I am aware that many people are attached to this game as it was a major step forward for the series and showed the potential of open-world games, but it undeniably aged poorly. The plot is alright, but again nothing that will change your life or that I would consider worth revisiting if you have seen enough mob movies.

    It has the funniest radio commercials of any GTA and it’s still very hit or miss

    This is a good game but San Andreas definitely does everything better than this, except for the protagonist. Not to mention that Vice City itself is very small and has barely anything to do.

    Great vibe, cool story, but the controls were clunky even in 2002. Nowadays it's barely playable.

    For a game made in 2002 its still surprisingly immersive even if it is a satirical exaggeration of the 80s.
