Impressive, looks just like it did on the PS2, brick hands and all.
Still, touch-screen controls are yucky...
Definitely use a controller add-on, or something.

iamnsuperman4164d ago

I have GTA 3 and the controls for that are ok (could be better as some other games on the iOS have proven it can be done) what ruined it for me was the frame rate. I hope this is better

you could cut the frame limiter off but if that don't work you can upgrade your mobile ;)III runs silky smooth on my SIII this game looks better and runs better than console versions and dualshock 3 is natively supported on android with usb otg or bluetooth(root required)

I WANT SOMEONE TO START A PETITION FOR GTA HD COLLECTION

its easy money RS make it happen, also could we please get bully on psn atleast in HD

CalvinKlein4163d ago (Edited 4163d ago )

ON VITA YEAHHHHH

And it would sell good to convince them to make an original VITA GTA game.

Soldierone4164d ago

Only reason I own an Xperia Play :P Love playing GTA 3 on it

Now if it were to come to Vita I'd be super happy!

ProjectVulcan4164d ago (Edited 4164d ago )

You say that it looks the same but hopefully like GTA3 ios/android it'll run using many Xbox/PC assets of the game, and it'll also run at native res of devices which are way superior to PS2's native resolution of 640 x 480! http://www.eurogamer.net/ar...

GTA3 looked brilliant on a Galaxy S3 running 1280 x 720. Vice City will be brilliant I am sure. I think it is the best GTA of the generation.

However San Andreas must surely follow, and that'll be an amazing accomplishment to have it as a mobile game.

I used a Sixaxis controller and the Sixaxis Control app for Android. With a decent amount of effort, I got it to play just like it was on the PS2. It was great.

Dont get why they dont just port this and gta 3 to vita. Also San Andreas stories for vita make it happen rockstar.

Neo Nugget4164d ago

Soooooooooo can we get this on Vita?

Skate-AK4164d ago

Probably $4.99. That's how much GTA 3 was.

A Look Back at 'Grand Theft Auto: Vice City' Which Turns 20

Revisiting Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Grand Theft Auto: Vice City was released on October 29, 2002, only a year after Grand Theft Auto: III. As hard as it is to imagine in an era that sees a decade go between releases, GTA games used to drop annually.

Where it all kicked off, huh? Vice City is a video game treasure.

ThatArtGuy541d ago

It's my favorite GTA for setting and overall feel.

chicken_in_the_corn541d ago

It's my favourite for story and characters

Demetrius541d ago

A timeless classic that feels fresh even when u play it today

jznrpg541d ago (Edited 541d ago )

Morrowind did a great job of open world in 2002 also but unfortunately Elder Scrolls has been diluted since then and hasn’t really progressed at all besides in the graphics department. Sad really .

shinoff2183541d ago

Pretty sure that was GTA 3, and then it took san andreas to perfect it. San andreas is still one of my favorite games.

Wait, no new PS1, PS2 or PSP additions?

CrimsonWing69560d ago

It’s frustrating how they barely update that library. I get that Jimbo hates old games, but c’mon, the classic catalogue with trophies was a big draw for me. Was really hoping to get some heavy duty classic PS1 games to platinum. Looks like they’ll do exactly what they did on PS4 with the PS2 library…

LucasRuinedChildhood560d ago (Edited 560d ago )

Games like Resistance: Retribution have already been rated as well so they have some stuff ready.

I think they still don't have a healthy supply of classic games for the next few months and they have to really spread them out ... so because of all those Yakuza remasters on Premium this month ... they made the decision to hold off putting up more PSP or PS1 games until next month. :(

They need clearer communication on this. They could have said that we can look forward to some PSP games next month or something.

FinalFantasyFanatic559d ago

I'm so glad I stuck with the essential tier, I'd be ticked paying more with the expectation that the classic catalogue would be regularly updated and built up. The classic catalogue was the biggest draw of the upper tiers for me, so not seeing any new PS1 games is pretty disappointing.

Ben Dover560d ago

While the VC remake is a turd, this is an impressive month.

SlothLordPootus560d ago

Has vice city been fixed? If not it feels like a weird addition. Lots for Dragon Quests fans.

jeromeface560d ago

fixed? Its kinda hard to fix something that was a mobile port to begin with... so no

cluclap559d ago

It wasn't a mobile port though? The team that made them did the mobile games but if I remember the actual remakes aren't the mobile versions.

andy85559d ago

Playing it at the moment. It actually looks pretty clean. I'm on PS5 though, can't comment for other versions. I guess the updates helped a bit

VersusDMC560d ago

If you like assassins creed and Dragon Quest enjoy the multiple games.

Just plan on playing Medium and the Yakuza remasters right now.

EvertonFC559d ago

"inside" indie game looks interesting for sure too

SlothLordPootus559d ago

Inside is great. If youve played limbo it's very similar

dazzysima560d ago

Seems the PS Plus offer is running out of steam already.

Have they even added any new trials since launch?

rob-GP560d ago

Yes, loads - they just stupidly havn't updated the list on the console!

I can't recall of the top of my head but there's been a bunch of games, probably about 10 or so. I'm gonna drop Shu another email and try and get him to tell the UX team to update the list. It's annoying when they don't update things

VersusDMC560d ago

I checked out the soulstice trial recently. And i heard they added dying light 2 so i might check that one out as well.

MrNinosan559d ago

Running out of steam? This month is amazing, and the months before it has been great aswell.
At least 3 of the Dragon Quest games are great, Medium is okay, Assassins Creed is nice gems for those who missed put, Inside amazing, Castlevania superb, the Yakuza remakes are fantastic.

Lots of Trials has been added simce launch.
If you don't use the service or are interested enough to first check what's there, why comment?
