GTA Vice City, busted or not, is filled with awesome secrets and Easter Eggs. Here are some of our nostalgic favorites. Subscribe for more: czcams.com/users/gameranxTV?su...
Playing this and GTA 3 in elementary school blew my mind, I barely did the missions the driving around and racking up stars was enough for my undeveloped mind 😂
@@zwakblaze3596 lmao 🤣 yeah it was a walking driving shooting simulator for me too. I was able to get my mom to buy it for me without knowing what it was, then the freaking news ran an article about It on tv and my cover was blown lol
Here's an Easter egg for the definitive edition on the switch, Rockstar used their favorite numbers and assigned them to the frame rate. Their highest number was 20.
There's also a somewhat easy to miss situation where Lance flies you in helicopter to abandoned villa where you shoot some dudes (I don't really recall the name of the mission), and while talking about stuff he flies under the bridge and suicide jumper throws himself off the bridge right into helicopter's blades.
As a kid, I accidentally found Apartment 3C when the police cornered me at the complex. I think I was trying to do a “last stand” up there, trying to see how long I can survive against full 6-star waves, but when I backed up against the wall, I was surprised that got in the apartment. And jesus christ 😂 That bathroom scene became a very vivid childhood memory for sure
I've only played San Andreas on Game Pass so far and will wait for fixes before actually buying the trilogy, but I have to say for the most part the atmosphere is still there for me. There are some off putting bug and that frigging rain, but overall with some fixes and some TLC they are not too far off.
Vice city was one of the goats for me. I rented it from a video store in my hometown and kept the map because I didn’t think they would care. A year later we went back to that store only to find out we owed 500 dollars in late fees from not turning it in with the game 😬😬😬
I wonder what Vice City would have been like without all the cut content, it was such a good game already and from what ive heard, a lot of good stuff got cut so they could rush the game out to keep investors happy
I'm pretty sure that you can see the Reagan/Gorbachev picture during the side mission where you have to win at the rifle range to contract the guy for the heist. At least I saw it during my playthrough of the DE and I think it was during that mission. Certainly no need to clip through anything!
1:18 there's also another ciment shoe guy, under the bridge crossing to ricardo's island, under the bridge, oposite of the construction site building, hidden in a corner.
for years after the game first released there was a rumor of a skeleton (or image at least) hidden in one of the bridges. and you could only see it if you used one of the larger boats and clipped the camera through, a la that reagan pic. it was supposedly a reference to the legend of Jimmy Hoffa (who disappeared without a trace) being buried in cement. but as that was the days before youtube I always wondered if it was ever confirmed to be fake or real.
I waited to buy the definitive edition for so long because of people bitching about it and I finally bought it just to play vice city and I am totally pleased. It’s a remaster not a remake, if you enjoyed the original it’s a breath of fresh air and the controls alone make it worth it. I don’t know why so many people are complaining…..primadonnas, because 75% of new games suck anyways, this is still better than half the games released in the past 15 years
That's because Rockstar is a bigger company. While CD PROJEKT RED is a nice sized company it's nothing compared to Rockstar so they know they can get away with it because of loyalists
I NEVER knew about the donald love easter egg at the end. thats so hilarious that he took it literally when avery says to "write this down you four eyed prick."
The cement shoes thing is real. A couple of years ago here in NYC they found a body wrapped in garbage bags and had cement shoes. It was by kings borough community college
No one ever seems to remember the shark that would appear in vice city. Only happened near the hidden package on the like destroyed hut in the water near the south west of the first island if memory serves me correctly.
I remember that you see i guy with cement shoes in vice city 😂 but not the one you have shown the one i had see was closer to shore or in a canal and he had a pink blouse
Remember the DODO plane on gta3? After I found it I tried for a few days and then every time I played to fly that thing atleast a few times. Try to fly it, crash and die reload. Like a 5 min experience. I wonder if they made it actually fly. I thought it was me but apparently it really wasn't meant to fly.
Reegan and Gorbachev also appear in the Commodore 64 game Split Personalities which is a slide puzzle game except on computer . Other political figures also appear such as former UK Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher .
oh ah I know one the VCN tower has one secret if you go to the roof and and jump under the window that is next to VCN tower you can find an egg I did not find it I just see it in a video but you are good at finding secret
Wasn't there an actual mission in the moon landing studio in vice city stories, also couldn't you swim in vice city stories. Honestly im mad Tommy can't swim now, Claude I don't really car about but not being able to swim in vice city is ridiculous
@@jamespwoods6911 i can name plenty of remastered games that are a major upgrade to the previous games in mechanics, bugs, and graphics. People are paying for a product that has an expectation to perform in a certain manner. If you don't understand that then for your sake you should just try not to have an opinion. You are making excuses at best, and at worst you are being knowingly ignorant. The new thing should work and look better than the old thing, otherwise why I am justifying spending my money again? To use a particular input device?
Donald Have Two Outfits In GTA lll One Liberty 's And Purple Billionaire Suit And In GTA vc he wears a glasses and a white shirt and a dark blue shirt and dark blue tie with yellow stripes
Rockstar shoud've thought better about this project. People are still going to pay for it, but they should've done a better job at trying to expand the game capabilities with what we have of technology nowadays. I know that there's the possibility of patches and upgrades to it, but as a launch product it's just not enough.
Playing this and GTA 3 in elementary school blew my mind, I barely did the missions the driving around and racking up stars was enough for my undeveloped mind 😂
same here with San Andreas. every time I logged on to my ps2 and loaded gta sa I would just start where Carl came from the airport
@@SkiiYacht Shit... here we go again.
I did that with San Andreas at my neighbour's house, I didnt even know what the game was called, I called it walking and killing
@@zwakblaze3596 lmao 🤣 yeah it was a walking driving shooting simulator for me too. I was able to get my mom to buy it for me without knowing what it was, then the freaking news ran an article about It on tv and my cover was blown lol
@@roblewis187 When I first time got it it was a dvd that was torrented sold to me
I wish they could have kept all of the music from the original Vice City
🤘🏻😎👍🏻
They would have except copyrights are a thing so yeah lol
@@Domepeezy they in the original...
How can't they be allowed again?
Horseshite
@@ezgezg8618 idk about others but I do know the MJ estate is extremely strict do that’s prob why billie jean isn’t in the game.
@@ezgezg8618 they need to re-acquire the rights to get the song back in the game. As they're kinda making a "new" game
Here's an Easter egg for the definitive edition on the switch, Rockstar used their favorite numbers and assigned them to the frame rate. Their highest number was 20.
Lol
That's cool
That's incredible 🤯
I don't understand...
@@shanebraaten9553 The game doesn't run good on switch
6:45 that was the message from Rockstar to the people who bought the remaster
Gameranx needs a dark mode
Upvote time
no l

Phenom penh 86 is the name of the mission, but i never remembered that scenario happening
@@chiefdenis it's blink and you miss kinda thing, but if you look backwards while flying under the bridge you can see an NPC falling into the water.

I feel like the one where you shoot the moon and it changes size should be on here
I still think that it's so cool that they kept the literal easter egg. 😆
Removing it would be extra work so they kept it
The rain and light glare in some scenes were searing my retinas.
Fun video :) Always love to hear about GTA. I hope the atmosphere of the games is restored in upcoming patches.

I hope you didn't pay. If you played the waiting game all of those stores literally got closed down lol
3:34 Missed the fact that the R* star is wrong 🤣
6 pointed star
I hope its a dumb gta 6 easter egg
@@WimpieInator of course not, most likely a side effect of their lazy AI upscalling shit
One of my favourite games of all time. I played vice city more than 1000 hours many years ago ahhhh I still love this game
I'm just surprised you guys managed to made a video for san andreas and vice city without running into any bugs and glitches
The bugs were left on the cutting room floor.
I wonder what Vice City would have been like without all the cut content, it was such a good game already and from what ive heard, a lot of good stuff got cut so they could rush the game out to keep investors happy
A tip for playing the Defintive Edition: go to settings and put "Contrast" on its minimum. The games will look way better.
Are you sure? I try now
@@pressstart8738 I´ve been playing on PS5 and at least for me is way better when I put Contrast on the minimium setting.
They’ve got Barry Allen on the force jumping through time just to smack you off the bike at 4:40.
@4:35 the flying elbow that cop gave Tommy was amazing
LMAO
I'm pretty sure that you can see the Reagan/Gorbachev picture during the side mission where you have to win at the rifle range to contract the guy for the heist. At least I saw it during my playthrough of the DE and I think it was during that mission. Certainly no need to clip through anything!
AMAZING how people find stuff!!
for number 5
In the game Driv3r
You can find Tommy on all maps
And he's wearing arm floaties
Cause, y'know 😂
1:18 there's also another ciment shoe guy, under the bridge crossing to ricardo's island, under the bridge, oposite of the construction site building, hidden in a corner.
4:40 Good to know the most busted shit is still present
I always thought Mike Griffin was supposed to be Mace Griffin from “Mace Griffin: Bounty Hunter” which strangely released a year after VC
Love your vids man
Thanks
Some of the lighting and weather effects in the definitive edition make it so see what you're doing at times
I want my money back
I want you to get your money back too
Wipeout was the mission I just couldn't get past as a kid and iirc that's the mission that unlocks that last island upon completion.
for years after the game first released there was a rumor of a skeleton (or image at least) hidden in one of the bridges. and you could only see it if you used one of the larger boats and clipped the camera through, a la that reagan pic. it was supposedly a reference to the legend of Jimmy Hoffa (who disappeared without a trace) being buried in cement. but as that was the days before youtube I always wondered if it was ever confirmed to be fake or real.
also, i dunno if it counts for the video, but the mansion you see later in the game is a near exact replica of the mansion in scarface.
Never played any of the GTA games before I was born

I’d like to see if the ghost ships can still be seen on the sea horizon
My favorite rockstar easter egg is the Scarface one where you go into the hotel and it's all bloody with a chainsaw in it
Gotta love how they scolded cyberpunk being bad and buggy, then release this mess
That's because Rockstar is a bigger company. While CD PROJEKT RED is a nice sized company it's nothing compared to Rockstar so they know they can get away with it because of loyalists
1:42 so thats where GTA V's Kosatka design came from
The phallic building would splash water at the top like a fountain, for a brief set of time too
The definitive edition looks so damn bad it’s unbelievable
I NEVER knew about the donald love easter egg at the end. thats so hilarious that he took it literally when avery says to "write this down you four eyed prick."
Oh look, another gta video from gameranks, when u guys changing ur name to gtaranks?
The cement shoes thing is real. A couple of years ago here in NYC they found a body wrapped in garbage bags and had cement shoes. It was by kings borough community college
They need to make a “Bully” version like this definitive edition! Game was ahead of its time frfr
As long as they don't give it to Grove Street studios to fuck up.
That was basically what the Scholarship edition of the game was tho.
Oh hey the rain actually looks decent here (haven't played it yet only seen footage I'll have the game Tomorrow though)
I found most of these while playing the original game, as many people who played it did.
Have u noticed the Rockstar logo is screwed up on the map when u look at it by the pool..,the star is way off lol..but u can only see it on the map

Think it had something to do with 9/11. They made the plan unflyable after that
The trick is never pull up. Only ever tilt the nose downward, it will go up on its own.
GTA..if you look really hard . You can almost see it Edition
Still waiting for the physical. Kinda second guessing it tho. Might just get it to have. I have a few games that I bought and never unwrapped.
"no zombies in the game"
what about Zombie Elvis?
Reegan and Gorbachev also appear in the Commodore 64 game Split Personalities which is a slide puzzle game except on computer . Other political figures also appear such as former UK Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher .
4:38 lmfaooo how did u get busted? Haha he was no where near you lol
These remasters are a tragedy and a travesty! Inexcusable! I'm so glad I still own the originals and the older consoles.
The Raegan poster is still there. This time u don’t have to see it through the wall. (Ps plus game catalog version)
4:39 that cop. Is the flash. 😂😂
The dude with the cement shoes is an easter egg from previous gta there is a mission where you have to dumb this dude in the sea
This seems like a much better remaster than San Andreas though...
I think a lot of it has to do with the colour palate. Also SA is a way bigger map.
What about the chicken under the ramp? I didn't find that in the original
Well this definitive edition is one of the finest of Rockstar’s crude humour.
This game is awesome
4:42 Cop arrested you? Hahaha 🤣
To me, Jon Romero is infamous for daikatana
Would've been nice to actually be able explore the ocean in VC
Hey guys, you forgot to add the beach volley ball, found in the Rockstar pool :/
Loved how they messed up the rockstar logo in the map 🤣🤣🤣
they may have wanted to make the uh... ding dong... able to be seen at all times so that you can see it at any time you wanted.
There's a cement shoes dude outside of San fierro too (san andreas)
Awesome
And even in the pool easter egg have a problem, they did wrong the number of points on the rockstar logo
If you shoot the moon with a sniper it would get bigger idk if that still works in the definitive edition
What about moon size after sniper shots?
oh ah I know one the VCN tower has one secret if you go to the roof and
and jump under the window that is next to VCN tower you can find an egg
I did not find it I just see it in a video but you are good at finding secret
Playstation should bring back the Getaway series and dunk on Rockstar. Show them how a remaster is done.
Mike Griffin is a reference to Mace Griffin bounty hunter game
Tombstone with Rockstar on it. Makes sense now 😅
I don’t remember being able to drive a boat in vice city. Is that a new feature
I’m pissed how bad they disrespected these classics. They deserved better.
These were cool enough
Cement shoes; only 1 known finding irl of it happening.
Wasn't there an actual mission in the moon landing studio in vice city stories, also couldn't you swim in vice city stories. Honestly im mad Tommy can't swim now, Claude I don't really car about but not being able to swim in vice city is ridiculous
Wasn't there a fountain on top of that hotel?
the chainsaw is also identical as in scarface 👌
for the number 1 there is wather splashing from the top and you whoud look at the news on the roads
Is it still playable and do you think the hardcopy will be fixed and ready
It's a port of the mobile ports. So to answer your question, probably not but maybe if you wait a year or two.

It's not submarine it's a chartered libertine lines ship from the mission Bomb da base act II mission from gta 3
These things have been in the original, and yet you find out about it just now?...
scarface ref is awesome
LOL the Rockstar logo pool on the map has a six pointed star instead of the correct five pointed star
Are they going ad charucter customization
Funny you didn't mention that the Rockstar pool is wrong on the minimap
3:33 They even messed up the Rockstar logo. Wtf.
Nice
*Who else is also playing the old VC?*
Notice the rockstar pool has 6 points on the star when looking at it on the map
4:40...damn robocop
Donald Have Two Outfits In GTA lll One Liberty 's And Purple Billionaire Suit And In GTA vc he wears a glasses and a white shirt and a dark blue shirt and dark blue tie with yellow stripes
So Vice City came out before Streets of LA. Do you think this was a coincidence or they had some insider info or what
