    motercycles ROCK. :) I managed to get four into a two car garage...
    after that they automatically disapear. :(
  • SanfamSanfam I like clocks.
    I remember in GTA3, in the second world, I was able to get seven cars into that two car garage, including an ambulance. Couldn't keep the door open for long, though. They'd blow sky high in no time :D

    I'd love to get GTA:VC for the PC, but I'm guessing that I couldn't run it. My system could just barely run GTA3 at a reasonable framerate (relatively smooth in Portland and Shoreside, but a bit choppy in Staunton), and VC looks to be even more detailed, so until I upgrade my system past the current 1.4ghz and Radeon 7500, no VC for me. :(

    hey vlad, for 50$ I'll sell you my old GeForce 3ti 200 @ 128MB VRAM. :)

    thats better then your 7500 for certain, and what I currently use.

    I should also have an XP 1800+ (@ 1.53 ghz) for sale too.

    yea, upgrading past that...hehehe (Of course, those being on sale require I get my upgrade in two weeks... and that they work)

    actually, I hear that Vice City runs a LOT better than the GTA3 did.

    ACtually you can't compare GTA3 and VC because VC got the same engine but is modified to bee better than GTA3.
    GTA3 was suppoused to have motorcycles but lacked the animation for the main character to ride motorcycles, so they were taken out of the game.
    Still I would really much like to have VC!

    I'm running Vice City on an Athlon 1.3ghz with 512 megs of ram and a 64mb GeForce 4 MX. and it runs like a charm
  • CurZCurZ Resident Hippy
    Vice City definitely runs better than GTA3. Driving through Staunton was hell framerate-wise, but I haven't had a single slowdown in Vice City.

    I'm running an Athlon XP 1.73GHz, 768MB PC2700 and GeForce2 GTA with 32MB of RAM.
  • A2597A2597 Fanboy
    well...what does the 7500 compare to? the GeForce2 era cards? its only DX7 compatable though...

    hey Vlad I got GTA VC on my pc.

    an 866 P3 with TNT2 Model 64 with 256 MB of Ram. and it runs pretty good. with a pretty decent framerate. could be better of course only with a better graphics card but it runs, and i can play it. so its cool,

    Some more to add to your list:

    Porn Studio
    Strip Club
    Many more fast cars
    80's music...
    R/C cars
    R/C planes
    Dirt bikes
    Golf Carts

    BTW, has anyone seen The Birdcage (the Robin Williams version)? The open shot of South Beach looks just like the drive along the beach in VC. I half expected to see some drag queens out on the street, but none yet!
