It doesn't look like someone beat me to it but the VCS website has been updated now. Clicky Here. (http://www.rockstargames.com/vicecitystories/gtav cs.html)
There is like stuff on there now. I saw the trailer and Victor doesn't sound like Ving Rhames at all. It even looks like he really does have a white lady (and not just a drug reference) but I may be wrong. It looks like there are 18 screenshots plus a wallpaper download. Under the screen and above the info, news, screens, etc. are a few different shapes that you can click on to see what's on MeTV news or on the radio. There is still some stuff like the music and multiplayer links that do not have anything yet but enjoy!

Awesome trailer, brilliant song, I love it despite it being played at a good friends funeral... but the site looks awesome, got my backround up, pics look real impressive. I got a real gut feeling this is gonna touch us the way vice city did that no other GTA's have :)
Can't wait!
Well done CaliMex +rep

The only voice I noticed was Dennis Leary on the Bait and Switch boating show. Anyways thanks for finding this calimex :)
Hahaha! Pretty weird thing is that Vice City stories is taking place in 1984 and the song used in trailer (I Want to Know What Love Is (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_Want_to_Know_What_ Love_Is) by foreigner) is from 1985!
Oh well, they messed it before, when they added (I Just) Died in Your Arms by Cutting Crew to the Radio of Vice City'86, though the song is from '87.

Watch the trailer and then you will know what I mean. A few characters speak in the trailer (like always) and Vic is one of them and doesn't sound so Ving Rhames ish. Lance looks so geeky and I am wondering who that soldier is at the beginning of the trailer. The song didn't feel right (for me) with the trailer but I still liked the song. It was great overall. The MeTV thing was funny like this commercial:
You Chew
You Suck
Then Pow
Release
The Gum that "Shoots a Load in Your Mouth!

Oh well, they messed it before, when they added (I Just) Died in Your Arms by Cutting Crew to the Radio of Vice City'86, though the song is from '87.Hit songs are usually played on the radio before the album release, and sometimes the release between the single and album with the single on it are pretty distant and songs are usually credited under the date of the album release primarily. I'm sure they did their research.
I guess you're right, Olin. That song was included in the album on the eve of 1985. Big chance for that song to be on the media at the end of '84.

Made an approx. comparison on the Infamous Trailer park. Looks like that, it will be on the area where the Car showroom used to be.

Holy Diver by Dio. Couzin Ed and Lazlow. Trailer Park Mafia. Wave 103 and Adam First. Phil Cassidy. Lance wearing Glasses. Danny Trejo as Umberto.... I just came. Too bad Ving wont be doing Vic. Does anyone recognise Vic's voice? Danny Trejo, Philip Michael Thomas, Luiz Guzman are all definatley back though. Which is awesome.

So it's official. You start on the second island, and all of VC is unlocked from the beginning. Right?

Nice find Asif, wonder what else will be unravelled in the next update.
As it seems from a meTV news clip...

The car showroom is still in VCS and the trailer park is around it. My previous assumption wasnt accurate enough you can say. ;P
If the mags are saying that, Vic started from the trailer park, then the game must start from the 2nd island. :)

I think that will just be a unmovable object in the game, however, it could be used just like how remote controlled airplanes, and helicopters were used in the previous GTA titles.
Good trailer but it is nowhere near as epic as the first LCS video.
The voice acting for Lance is very ''meh..''

They made him a nerd to explain why he was always picked on, perhaps.

Of course this happens while I'm at school, first day of school tbh. Lawl, anyways, the site itself fucking owns, very flashy (as Casey mentioned) and sick. The trailer was awesome, these videos and screenshots really reflect how much Rockstar's pushed the PSP's limits, just like they pushed the PS2's limits with San Andreas. This will definitely be a good one boys ;)

Watched the trailer just before, just brilliant. The graphics look amazing, possibly better than San An (!).
Great job Rockstar, amazing looking game.
Some random comparisons, I made, from the trailer.

This chat was taking place may be in one of Vic's safehouse. I used the building in the background (with pink marker on it) as the reference.

I noticed the aiport part and I am seeing new things now. Has anyone seen the videos on the MeTV segment? They didn't work for me before but they did today. Also, Jordan at PlanetGTA posted the 6 gameplay videos on this page (http://planetgrandtheftauto.gamespy.com/View.php? view=Videos.Detail&id=155).
I saw some intersting things there like this new character, Marty J. Williams and his wife is the one who is holding the baby in the trailer. We also see Diaz talking in one of the clips and it seems like the same person (Luis Guzman) voices him which is great. I think I also saw Mike the Moron and Mario in the background at the end of the clip. I also think Danny Trejo is doing the voice for Umberto again.
Oh yeah, nice work Asif.
P.S.
Thanks for the rep guys, I feel so loved!

I reckon its down at the docks. Were the corrupt SWAT were right before they killed Victor and The Forelli Goons at the deal in 86'.
I have checked the Dock and Phil's place, found no match with the reference in the background (http://img221.imageshack.us/img221/9173/philcj0.j pg). The chat could be taking place in the Military base - since it is remodelled and may be one of their building is enterable.
victim

Sure it could be taking place in the military base. But there are no primary references saying it's not the place at the docks. Because there might of been more boxes there in 86. Expect simple stuff like that to change.
Another chance is that, Phil's place could be a little brushed this time.
Anyways, I just noticed this from the Army video...There's something on the top-left of the building. I recognized the parabolic dish, but what about the taller one?

Thats weird ^^^. It could be some kind of vehicle, or some kind of ariel.
Ya, looks a control tower to me. :\
Anyways, another comparison I made here. This one clears up the marker thing for the enterable interiors and confirms that Ammunation is still there at Downtown.
VCS: Both snaps are sequently taken from the DEA agent movie.

The trailer was amazing, but the song really didn't fit it. In the beginning it was going smoothly, until "I want to know what love is" started LOL.

I thought the song for the trailer was great. Like the chorus starts as Lance comes in a helicopter to save Vic and such.
The song of the trailer was good, and the graphics of VCS are looking very nice. The faces of the characters are looking better than the ones from SA imo. But hey, it's GTA, never been bad. :)

@Victim, Im sure the shooting range will be back.
