'Grand Theft Auto: Vice City' game logo
Welcome to Vice City. Welcome to the 1980s…Having just made it back onto the streets of Liberty City after a long stretch in maximum security, Tommy Vercetti is sent to Vice City by his old boss, Sonny Forelli. They were understandably nervous about his reappearance in Liberty City, so a trip down south seemed like a good idea. But all does not go smoothly upon his arrival in the glamorous, hedonistic metropolis of Vice City. He's set up and is left with no money and no merchandise. Sonny wants his money back, but the biker gangs, Cuban gangsters, and corrupt politicians stand in his way. Most of Vice City seems to want Tommy dead. His only answer is to fight back and take over the city himself. But all work and no play does indeed make Tommy a dull boy. Thankfully, for the action man, or outdoors type, there's tons of fun things to do and adventures to be had in the aptly named Vice City... guaranteed. And for the secretive or creepy type, it is a place full of surprises, a place where you'll constantly be surprised by the vivacious, fun-loving types who live there and the things you can discover.

Originally released for PlayStation 2 in 2002 and ported over to the PC a year later, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City is chock full of 1980s American culture references, as well as a continuation of the sandbox style action adventure gameplay that is the hallmark of the GTA series. It is also one of the top selling games of all-time on the PS2 platform.

'Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas' game logo
Five years ago Carl Johnson escaped from the pressures of life in Los Santos, San Andreas... a city tearing itself apart with gang trouble, drugs and corruption. Here film stars and millionaires do their best to avoid the dealers and gangbangers. Now, it's the early 90s. Carl's got to go home. His mother has been murdered, his family has fallen apart and his childhood friends are all heading towards disaster. On his return to the neighborhood, a couple of corrupt cops frame him for homicide. CJ is forced on a journey that takes him across the entire state of San Andreas, to save his family and to take control of the streets.

Featuring three Grand Theft Auto titles, including Grand Theft Auto III, Vice City and San Andreas. Beginning with Grand Theft Auto III, you've been betrayed and left for dead. Now you are taking revenge, unless the city gets you first. Mob bosses need a favor, crooked cops need help and street gangs want you dead. You will have to rob, steal and kill just to stay out of serious trouble. In Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, you take to the streets and underground crime of the '80s. The location is Vice City and the vibe is glamour, power and corruption. Like Grand Theft Auto III, Vice City offers an in-depth storyline and a go-anywhere style of game play. Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas features a new city, fresh cars and even more territory to explore. You take on the role of Carl Johnson, a man who managed to escape the rough life in Los Santos, San Andreas, and a city torn apart by corruption, drugs and gang warfare. Five years ago, you escaped the burdens of life in the city for greener pastures. After learning of a family tragedy, however, you must return to a world you thought you had left behind forever.
