More updated information about VCS

[5tatic]

During last week's Leipzig Games Convention, a few publications had the opportunity to see Vice City Stories being previewed to them. German gaming website, 4Players.de , recently published their preview of the game. New details are listed below:

• The brother of Victor Vance - Lance - is a ''drug addicted wreck''.
• The game will feature golf caddies, which further suggests that the Leaf Links golf course is not removed from Vice City Stories.
• Explosions not only consist of a circle of fire, but also of hissing fire jets and individual parts flying around.
• The developers promise a more intelligent targeting system, which avoids you from shooting at civilians during large enemy engagements.
• There is said to be some ''innovations'' in the multiplayer mode.
• 4Players.de confirms that Ving Rhames will be voicing Victor Vance.
• The version of the game that they saw showed pop-ups and fade-ins, but R* assured them this will be solved in the final version.

edit: not sure if it's real information or not as I've just been looking at the 4players.de website.


Also, it seems like Ricardo Diaz makes a return as said by Neil at GTAPSP.COM:


# Vic will be supported by other characters in some missions, such as Lance and Ricardo Diaz

Heard about most of that news, but not the explosions, which I'm very excited to hear about. Finally a change in those to become more realistic.

Ohh, I was just about to make a thread about the new info from some site, when I saw you already had a thread on this. Anyway, I am allways glad ot hear more info on VCS.

The infos from German Gaming Convention were already discussed here (http://www.gtagaming.com/forums/showthread.php?p= 1305061#post1305061) though. Diaz is discussed on the same page.

Crazy that this all seems too good to be true. All this news I'm hearing, this little voice keeps screaming that these things won't have as much depth to them as we are anticipating. I mean, can the PSP really handle this extraordinary engine?

Yes, I guess. I'm a bit surprised that they are going all out with this game. They could of done the exact same thing with GTA: LCS and it would of been a much better game.
