GTA Vice City was my first REAL leap into the series. While I played a bit of grand theft auto 3, vice city was the first one I was really able to sink my teeth into. So in today's episode of the nostalgic gamers' club, we're taking a look at the box art and "tourist guide" that comes with the game!

how tf are you not more popular, very well made!
Ayy thanks so much! I really appreciate that :) Thanks for watching!!
probably 'cause the video sucks
Aw sorry ya feel that way champ
love these videos. While it is likely the opposite of what he is trying to do, I find myself really wanting a little bit of gameplay footage by the end of these.
@@franka4312 not the opposite at all!! I’m actually just waiting for my RetroTINK 5x to come in the mail so I can get some nice high quality captures for all of you :) thanks so much for watching and commenting!
FYI the guy with the baller shades is lance vance, the guy with the match sticking out his mouth is Ricardo Diaz and the guy pulling down the shades is Sonny. and also each of the gta trilogy covers has a helicopter on it all 3 of them in the top left corner in the first panel.
Hell yeah I love that! Thanks for sharing that info :) I love learning more about these old games
I still have my PS2 version for this game in a perfect condition. It also includes a massive poster of that bikini girl and on the other side there's an entire Vice City map to look at with an orientation section that has the most important buildings + descriptions, districts and where you can find things on the map. It shows what are they selling in the North Point mall, hospital areas, guns, where your allies are staying and so on. You can find everything on that map you'd eventually need.
I miss when games came with posters, man. Those were the days.
I remember when i was 11 and borrowed VC from friends. They said it sucked because it had no planes, small map, meh missions etc while i just wanted an open world. I got to browse the manual and woah, it soaked me in. Hate on it as you want the world has a LORE, music is amazing and to top it off the gameplay is fun to this day. Iconic entry. Then i bought SA and its manual was a tourist guide: everything was written in R* style, a ton of shops and restaurants to search in-game and landmarks that would be otherwise ignored. But the best thing was the SMELL, oh man 😂
Dude nothing beats the smell of old gaming instruction booklets fr
i remember back in 2020/2019ish gta vice city content was extremely popular on youtube, people made gta vice city in gta 5 mod showcase videos and they got millions of views, lots of youtube channels themed their entire channel around vice city and there was even a time when it got advertised at the superbowl in 2020. I dont get why its so forgotten especially since gta 6 is literally going to be in vice city!
For real!! So weird
I was -1 when Vice City was born
So like...probably too young for it
i was 4 months old
In 2002 I was 12.
Broo your channel is so good why are you not popular?!!!!!!
Thanks friend!! Much appreciated :) Thanks for watching and commenting!
Awesome vid! I hope to see you with rakes more subs in the future! :D
Hey thanks friend! I really appreciate that :)
wow 14 minutes nostalgia video on gta vice city and you didnt even play the game. just instruction manual and cover. Great vid
Hey thanks for the kind words my friend :) I just love geeking out about old ass games hahaha
My very first video I ever played. I honestly don't remember much. I have started playing Vice City Stories yesterday day and by golly, call me impressed
I’ve heard great things!
Whenever I play vice city i get nostalgic of the 80s although I wasn't even born bach then
Yo sameeeee. Retrofuturism ftw
I also remember the moral panic the game caused
Parents worried their kids would travel to the 80's and become literal gangsters
Didn't you guys in the USA get the map that came with the GTA games? I think GTA IV was the last one that had it. It was especially essential for GTA III, cause that didn't have an in-game map. It was a pretty cool social aspect. One guy could play the game and another one was reading the map and giving guidance. It was a time when we had a very tight group of friends who would get together and play games.
Heck yeah we did!! Sadly, when I moved away from home back in like 2013ish, it got taken off the wall and is lost to eternity now.
awesome production quality, great narration 👍🏻
Thanks my friend!! Appreciate you watching :)
I still remember we used to take turns to play vice city
One of the best play and pass games IMO
Im the only one who plays its multiplayer Version 24/7 im so much addicted to it till 2017
I never even heard of the multiplayer version!!
Its completely dead now, but i remember seeing some videos on it, looked fun.
@@Retro9000 technically there never was, but people used mods on PC to make a multiplayer version, it died out because there was too many variations that people didn't know which one to use. The same thing is happening to GTA 4 now-a-days aswell.
Awesome video my dude. This was cool.
Hey thanks so much!! Appreciate the kind words :)
i hope u get popular someday, this video was rlly good!
That’s super nice of you!! Thanks so much for the kind words :)
You made it to the top of my KZhead home page, congrats 👏
I’m honored ❤️
@@Retro9000 it's earned a subscription because I enjoyed the video that much 🕺👏
Let’s go babyyyyyyy welcome to the nostalgic gamers club!!
I remember there being a map of Vice City in the case as well
There was!! It's somewhere likely in the trash at my parents house from when I was a wee lad hahaha
I find it kind of lame that you have to censor the word 'bomb' due to KZhead censorship. I made a video titled, "How to build a bomb (+ Testing it on pedestrians)", and it was removed because of the word 'bomb' being in the title.
Oof. Maybe they flagged it for something else?
Still got that and vice city stories on disk😎 posters booklets etc
I wish I played more of VCS!!
Why B*mb instead of BOMB? What the fuck is happenig on the internet?
Maaaaan ask the KZhead overlords
Alot of yapping
Bro I could not stop yapping
How do you not yap about such a good game lol
