      The helicopter mission was hard at the time because we as children had never flown in games like this before, it was new and therefore hard. I also 1st tried it as an adult semi recently, it's because we're good now and we were shit back then.

      I hate when a game that just removes music when the soundtrack is just as iconic as the characters it still pisses me off that my favorite 2 GTA soundtracks are ruined San Andres and Vice City in the defective editions and San Andres all it needed to take to annoy me was Ozzy Hellraiser being removed on the 30th anniversary year of said song

    Played this with my Dad when I was about 8/9. Probably influenced all my taste in music even today. He was mad, he used to go from when he got home (6/7pm) till 3am, printing out the internet guides for the secrets and trophies. And the worst was our TV was so far from our sofa, we had to sit on a straightback metal dining chair the whole time or else on the floor. But they were probably the best times of my life

    I played Vice City recently and did the Demolition Man mission easily. I found it super hard when I first played the game in 2005 because, at that time, I had never played a game with this kind of controls, spinning in 3 axes. Now I have many hours playing games with helicopters. In my opinion, this is why it was so hard at that time and today is hard to understand why people say this was the hardest mission.

    • @fuzzyslippersyt
      @fuzzyslippersyt  Před rokem +66

      Yeah that's ultimately the conclusion I came to as well. Alot of posts and articles discussing the missions are several years old, so I think it's just the unfamiliarity that makes it feel tough. As no one brings up the bombing missions for the haitians and that has some iffy controls too.

After enough agony I looked up a playthrough for guidance and saw the person playing use the plane as a car and just drive them over, I was so mad that the flying was so bad that I had to resort to driving them over to finish it.

    7:25 Yep exactly, the original release had such good music. I was in school when I played this game in 2002 and my parents were so mad about me playing this kind of game. But my mom watched me play once and heard the soundtrack and made an agreement with me, she wouldn't mind me playing the game if I let her play the soundtrack while I was at school. So sometimes I'd come home afterschool and I'd see the TV on with high volume and Vercetti sitting in a car listening to the soundtrack lol! This was before you could just easily listen to music on CZcams and she didn't want to pay for music.

    Vice City stories is severely underrated. It's almost a mix of San Andreas and the classic Vice City.

    With having fully watched the video, I would have to say Vice City is still my favorite PS2 title. I can’t deny the level of content in San Andreas is more diverse, and it’s an excellent game on it’s own right, providing more than Vice City for the same price. But the simple pastiche and respect that Vice City pays to the era leads to a product that is undeniably one of the best portrayals of video game art, in my opinion.

    Excellent video mate. I haven't played Vice City Stories in a long time, but I can confirm to you that yes, Victor Vance also had to deal with Lance's shit and that game sorta foreshadows Lance's end with his attitudes and recklessness. He causes a lot of problems for Victor, but won't get into spoilers if you plan on also playing VCS and I'm looking forward to that if you do.

    I remember being a 5yr old and walking into Sam Goody with my parents, Vice City just came out and my dad was trying to convince me to get it.
    I looked at the boats and cars on the front and insisted it be a dumb racing game.
    That weekend I went to my dad's and he was shooting people and stealing cars, I begged and begged for a turn and he said, "Nahhh this is that game you said you didnt want"
    I started playing it and it was a core memory for me. RIP pops❤

    Vice City taught me an important lesson that I carried with me for the rest of my life since playing it "It takes a wise man to learn from his mistakes, but an even wiser man to learn from the mistakes of others." I heard that on the radio station from one of the DJs and I never forgot it. Years later I went back and played again and I heard another DJ say "If you listen, one day you might be heard." That was another wise statement I took with me, anyone who says these games have nothing to teach you, is totally wrong.

    Demolition Man is much harder on PC due to horrible controls (using the numpad in a non-standard way ain't fun), although missions that require manual aim are a cakewalk. It is quite amusing to see people on different platforms having difficulties with different missions and overall aspects of these games.
    Cool video, by the way.

    The game is literally my favourite. The feeling this City gives me is surreal. I feel nostalgic for times I didn't live in. Btw i really enjoyed this trip down the memory lane, was a great ride watching this video.
    Few notes:
    - Diaz had a real with Courtez's right-hand man where he was selling him info about Courtez and his deals, meaning Diaz might've known about the deal from him and ambushed it.
    -When you play shots from cutscenes or movies, try keeping the audio level the same as your voice, if I'm eating a snack, I can't hear the cutscenes if they aren't as loud, don't wanna change my volume every few minutes lol (this is a first world problem i know xD)
    -Vice City Stories has about the same feel but maybe better gameplay. Equal or better soundtrack, great story and features from both old and newer titles like San Andreas. I recommend the PSP version emulated. Its graphics will look updated because of the system they were made for, much better than the ps2. The looks of it are incredible and i dare even say breath-taking for such an old game. They really killed it, especially with having Phill Colins and his concert.

  • @bidvision
    @bidvision Před 11 měsíci +3

    The main thing to know in the mission where you have to beat Hilary in the car race is that his car accelerates faster, but your car has a higher top speed. So if you can keep your speed up in the straight sections, you'll gradually catch up to him.

    Great video along with your other GTA vids, the PC version can be easily modded these days with the Silent Patch and Ginput mod that allows proper widescreen and modern controllers, and you can also switch controls on the fly, those missions that need right stick manual aiming? just grab the mouse, it makes them so much more enjoyable.. also the "Sir, yes sir" mission when you steal the tank can be made even easier by just following the convoy until they reach the donut store, the driver of the tank will get out and go into the store allowing you to just walk up and take the tank, can't wait until you tackle Vice City Stories.

    I love how half way thru the game it flips the script and you go from the guy messing up businesses to owning them. The auto business is great because you get access to the best and rarest cars in the game. The 80s music and Miami vibe made this one of my favorite games. Plus having Tommy talk was so much better than GTA3s mindless drone where your character was emotionless.

    An old trick from back in the day was to wait for Hillary near the finish, line up a shot, and snipe him in the head. This fails the mission, of course, but he will slide down the usually locked door of his Sabre, as sniped people do in GTA 3/VC/SA. You can then grab his everything-proof Sabre, save it in a garage somewhere, and then actually attempt the mission normally.

  • @sylent_viper
    @sylent_viper Před rokem +2

    I played vice city on release and I never had trouble with the RC helicopter, like you said after a couple of retries I had the controls down and completed the mission easily, and regarding the zero missions they were easy as well, there was only one mission with an extremely tight and frustrating timer (fuel) but the trick is to fly conservative, the more you move the more fuel you consume.

  • @genuinesaucy
    @genuinesaucy Před rokem +6

    I always love the asset buying missions, and I think they're in exactly the right spot in the game; now that Tommy's taken over Diaz's empire and got the transition settled, he's expanding it aggressively. Buying up new properties and morphing them into illegal businesses always gives me the feeling that I'm taking over the entire town one racket at a time. It's _really_ satisfying.
    Also, do a pit maneuver on Hilary to easily win that awful fucking bullshit race. If you can sideswipe his back wheels enough to spin his car out, you can get a huge lead on him right away.
