I may be wrong, but I think that in GTA 3/ Liberty City Stories/Vice City the main characters can't swin because that would let you be able to get alot of hidden packages early on or easily. Also, you would be able to get to islands that you haven't unlocked before you unlock them.

The rpg elements in san andres were crap. I'm out there falling from planes and bouncing back from missle fire only to be brought down by a sudden case of the munchies?

I hardly ever come here anymore....

That really pissed me off in SA. I spent a while maxing out my muscle, then I ended losing most of it on the last mission because I couldn't get to a fucking restaurant.

Much the same happened to me. I put a lot of time in at the gym and then suddenly while I'm out in the forest with a blown up bike, we've all been there, and the stomach starts growling. The advice the officals give is to give CJ a little beer belly at the start and he'll burn it slowly.

I hate it when that happens. I flip alot of cars in the forest and the desert and end up stranded. I usually cheat to get out of there though. It depends on what file I'm on.

The advice the officals give is to give CJ a little beer belly at the start and he'll burn it slowly.

Whenever I go to one of the restuarants, I buy about five of the big meals and let him burn that off.

San Andreas sucks. The only good thing is the jets and the ability to customize your look. GTA III Vice City and Liberty City Stories are much better. San Andreas has a really similar storyline to GTA III.

Yeah. It really caused me to ask myself why I cared so much about this big black guy having a perfect six pack. I checked, his weight dosen't affect the distance of jumps even though when you think about it it should.

All it does is make his punches do more damage. But you can do that with brass knuckles, or you can say fuck physical attacks and get the m-4. His weight should affect everything really. It already affects his running speed and his jump height.

The main character of Vice City Stories is Lance Vance’s older, more badass brother, Victor Vance. He’s currently posted at Vice City, awaiting his departure to the Guantanamo Bay Naval Base in Cuba.

This looks awesome. It sounds loads better than LCS which is my current favourite GTA game.

You can take to the air (helicopters!), seas (jet-skis!), and ground (completely new vehicles!) this time round.

I can't wait for it to be released, Jet-ski's helicopters and you play as a marine. Greatest Game Ever.

What I find funny is that in reality blacks, or the majority of them, cannot swim and in the last two GTA games two white men have failed at so much as doing the doggy paddle to save them.

Ironic.

I thought it was a great game. The '86 theme didn't bother me much. I liked most of the 80's rock on Vrock. Plus Tommy Vercetti is a great character.

VCS looks bad that you play a character who gets killed in a cut scene in Vice City and isn't even brought up in the story. He's brought up in, like, one Lance dialogue, where Lance is bitching about Tommy keeping him down.
