Grand Theft Auto: Vice City remains a landmark sequel that improved on GTA III with motorcycles, aircraft, a voiced protagonist, and one of gaming's most iconic soundtracks. Released just 12 months after its predecessor in 2002, it captures 1986 Miami excess with a star-studded cast led by Ray Liotta as Tommy Vercetti. Despite dated auto-targeting and no mid-mission checkpoints, Vice City's personality and style make it highly enjoyable decades later.
