Today marks seven years stuck in the 80s with Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. Check out the the game's trailers and web site by clicking the above image for some nostalgia.

Just wanted to let everyone know, I've made a couple of quizzes you all can take, on PlayStation's "BUZZ!". One is about GTA, the other is about Rockstar Games. You can take the quiz if you happen to come across it in PlayStation Home's "BUZZ! HQ". Alternatively, you can take the quiz right on the Buzz website. There is no prize if you score well... this is just for fun.

Good luck!

We're proud to introduce to all Vice City Online fans the newest installment of VCO Lua Extensions "VLE," version 1.05, created by VCO Project Coordinator Mex! This full-featured VLE release is packed with the gadgets and gizmos which were rendered unavailable in previous version, thus maximizing the strength and power of this well-rounded project.

Version 1.05 is the sixth installment to the series, and is by far the largest in terms of content and functionality. This is the proof of Mex's dedication to VCO and knowledge of Lua: he has completely rewritten the structure of VLE, improving execution and delivery over a period of two months. Mex has also made sure to make as much as possible fully dynamic to the limitations of VCO to allow for smoother compatibility! Some key features implemented in the release include:

• Full compatibility with Linux servers, given the new configuration options.
• Easy-to-use and easy-to-set-up functionality compared to previous versions.
• New preprocessors for creating and executing plugins and game modes wrapped around VLE.
• Over TWO HUNDRED commands with easy, logical, and documented syntaxes.
• Crashes due to the timer system have been repaired, thus improving overall server stability.

What would any update be without new paramount commands? VLE 1.05 introduces commands which have been cloaked by our imaginations; check some of them out:

• /BIND allows users to bind a command to another command, with DYNAMIC parameters! Think of the possibilities.
• /ADDCMDPREFIX allows users to add AND remove character prefixes for commands.
• /MARKERCMD binds a specified command to a VLE marker, which automatically executes when a player enters that marker.

So, as you can see, VLE is the "King of the Hill" in regards to VCO - there is only one way to go from here - up! So, what are you waiting for? Head over to GTAGaming's VLE forum topic, the Unofficial VCO Website's forum topic, or even the official VLE site today for more information about downloading!

The first public preview video of Vice City Online's new RC2 update is now live. VCO RC2 is the next-gen VCO which has been created from scratch, thus having a huge advantage over RC1. Advanced synchronization, improved and reduced amount of calculations, and of course, it's features are among the many new additions. The first developer's video features the new synchronization systems and nametags, which have significantly improved.

This ones Real Close Guys

The game that revived the 80's celebrated its 6th birthday today-- its first release in North America on October 27, 2002. Below you can check out the game's trailers and a link to the official Vice City website to spark some memories of the epic sequel. Although the day is nearly over (EST), I hope if you had not remembered you'll take some time to cruise around on a PCJ-600 or maybe nab a Hunter from the Fort Baxter Air Base to celebrate Vice City's release.
In other news... the PS3 version of GTA IV received the v1.3 update today to support the trophy system, similar to Xbox 360's achievement system. As the in-game message displays on a load of a previously saved game, the trophies will not be retroactive, in other words, you have to start a new game to earn trophies, but hey, it shouldn't be something to complain about! ;)
