IGN have put up a new article with the title of "The Reinvention of Water Physics in Vice City Stories". As you might well have guessed from the self-explanitory title, the article focuses on the brand new water physics engine. In addition to the article are three brand new screens, one of which shows us the slightly improved HUD, looking not too dissimilar from LCS or San Andreas'. Links: IGN Article | Screens

1UP have posted two previews of Vice City Stories and some new screenshots. Gamespy have also uploaded some new screenshots. One screenshot appears to show a brand new (and fairly detailed) plane, presumably the planes we're beginning to see in screenshots will all be flyable. Click the links below to check them out. On a slightly more exciting note, Rockstar have launched the official L.A. Noire website, and have also released the full two and half minute trailer. You can get all the latest news, screenshots and videos at LANoire.net. Links: 1UP - Preview 1 | Preview 2 | Screenshots GameSpy - Screenshots L.A. Noire - official site | LANoire.net | Trailer Also, it was confirmed today by the ESRB that VCS will indeed be rated M for Mature (17+), which comes as no surprise at all. Content descriptors for the game are: Blood and Gore, Intense Violence, Strong Language, Strong Sexual Content and Use of Drugs.

Guys, people make these boxes EVERY year for GTA games, it's just the logo on either a black or white background. You never seen them before? And also crediting Wikipedia? Anyone can edit that, it's not fact. Someones just gone and made that in Photoshop and uploaded it there to make themselves look good.

Contrary to Jace's beliefs, I'd advise you to change it from the default. Many defaults are set to a way too low resolution (800x600). You should be using at LEAST 1024x768, however try to use 1280x1024 if your monitor and graphics card supports it. Right click on your desktop and click Properties, click on the Settings tab, you can then drag the slider to your desired resolution. However, I'm not sure you can change it for just your account. I think it's for the whole PC. Gerard or Righty might know though.

IGN have posted their hands-on preview of Vice City Stories. Not much new information is given, however, we are reassured that loading times are "fantastic" on changing between the two main islands, with "barely time to take your eyes off the screen." The preview also describes three mission which IGN got to play, these are in the later stages of the game and sound more difficult than the earlier ones which is what is expected anyway. There's also some new screenshots and artwork in with the article. Other sites posting previews include Eurogamer and Gamesradar. Gamesradar also have a couple of new gameplay movies for you to watch, links below. IGN: Hands-on Preview, Screenshots and Artwork Eurogamer: Preview Gamesradar: Preview, Screenshots, Movies

Do you have any screenshots of this?

Nobody said PS3 wouldn't have downloadable content, we just haven't been told what it is yet - what we do know is that it won't be the same as what Microsoft will be offering.

Welcome to the forums TrueGod, have you read this - http://www.thegtaplace.com/downloadfaq.php#manual ?

Yeah that's all you have to do, delete the gta_sa.set. Never reinstall if this is happening as it's a waste of time, only reinstall if deleting gta_sa.set doesn't fix your problem.

From Vincent Valentino: From an unknown member called dubert233: From Spaz, regarding Tallow: May 10 2005, 01:12 AM: There's also PM's from Crimson and a many of his other accounts. Can't remember how many he got but there was a few.

I've used this on Vista, it's alright, but I use Winamp/iTunes anyway so it doesn't bother me.

They've now been merged.

Most of my PM's consist of apologies from members who have been suspended/banned, or questions from newbs. Rarely do I have legit PM's for discussing shit.

I used to always delete old PM's, my earliest is now from Mar 6 2005, 03:17 AM

Aetas is definitely the best VC vid yeah I agree with that.

I thought smallpancake left??? You came back? WTF? Oh and welcome back smartboy... *notices you haven't posted since this topic*

We're thinking of merging the stunting forums for GTA3, VC and SA into the main stunting forum. Since there's only a small stunting community here anyway, it makes sense to keep all the topics in one place, rather than split them all into sub forums. Anyone against this idea please state your reasons why, otherwise we'll probably merge them tomorrow or soon after.

Ah you mean a trainer then. You aren't English are you? I think we're gonna have some communication problems here, no offence.

I don't understand why people can't use a controller, it's easier to handle the vehicles, a lot of stunters use their PS2 controller with a PS2 to USB thingy.

You've inadvertently changed the way you view topics. Presumably you're viewing this topic, so on the top right click on Options, then in the drop down click on Switch to: Standard

I completely disagree, the US gets much better offers/competitions for GTA themed stuff. All other countries in the world get nothing, so companies like GAME manufacture these things themselves and offer them with the game, just to have 1 more USP than rival companies. Obviously you haven't been in the GTA web community long enough to remember the competitions by Rockstar themselves for GTA stuff. Starting with GTA3 skin contest, then Vice City, and those kick ass neon signs, San Andreas, with the BMX and apparel, LCS with the themed PSP. They'll probably do something similar with VCS as well.

I would say it's almost definitely something to do with the mod you installed.

Looks like kokane is still as HOT as ever!

GAME, Europe's largest videogame retailer, are offering a Vice City Stories themed PSP skin free with all preorders of the game.

For those of you in the UK who haven't already preordered, now might be the time to do so. Preorder and see details of the skin at GAME.co.uk
