i have gta 3 on pc and it works awsome and runs perficty smooth on the highest graphics settings. I really want to buy Vice City but am not shure how well it will run on my pc.
my system specs are
Operating System: Windows XP Pro
Graphics Card: (64 MB) NVIDIA Geforce 4 MX 420
Processer: AMD Duron 900 MHz
RAM: 256 MB
CD Drive: 48x
bassed on that how do you thing the game would run and is it worth me buying it:rolleyes:
thx

GTAIII runs really crappy on my pc, and VC runs perfect.
My specs are.
Intel Pentium 4 2.4GHz
OS: XP Home Edition
Video: intel 845g (64mb)
512 ram
I think the question is:
Why shouldn't you buy VC for PC?

On my older computer it only has a 32mb TNT2 pro and GTA3 sucked on it but vice runs fine but unfortunatly Vice Citys AMD Duron mimimum is 1.2ghz so your a little short. :(

Lost458, ill give you 2 reasons to upgrade:
1. Vice City
2. San Andreas
I think SA would have higher requerment that VC, and all you gotta do is upgrade your processor. i will probably upgrade my video card.
its your decision, like Puggus35 said, 900GHz is a little short.

I think you should get VC (its only £10 - in england) I only have a 32 meg graphics card and my pc runs it alrite
as piggus said your processor may not be powerful enough. so you should maybe think about upgrading that 1st

Congratulations Lost458!
TIP: if you played the game before (on ps2 or somethin') and beat it, install MTA (VC multiplayer) at www.mtavc.com. and play online :)
