EP04: Vice City, 1986 (Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, 2002)

Show by LaunchPod Studios / Listen Foundry
Episode four goes to Miami in 1986. Dev bought Grand Theft Auto: Vice City on release day. Kaz played it after San Andreas, which is like seeing a gig backwards. They get into how a mission pack became a whole game, why Miami Vice mattered more than Scarface, the hero who finally speaks and the cast behind him, the eighties soundtrack and its stations, building an empire, how it sold, and one controversy covered plainly. Plus the fourth round of Six Things for Six, ahead of GTA VI on 19 November. Sources: Rockstar Games, Take-Two Interactive, GameSpot, Edge via Gamenguide, The New York Times, Metacritic.
