In addition, buttons can be resized to various levels, allowing you to make actions that are important to you stand out more. While some folks averse to virtual buttons will still be turned off, for others it mostly succeeds.įor starters, every button and on-screen element (including the mini-map, tutorial messages, and health bars) can be moved around the screen in any way you wish. While the button schemes look intimidating for the initiative, Rockstar has put a lot of work into trying to make the situation bearable. Some buttons are contextual and only appear when they need to (such as the carjacking button), while others (such as the virtual joystick for movement) are always present. Just as was the case with GTA3, folks playing Vice City will experience a deluge of on-screen virtual buttons. New features such as an improved auto-save function, the ability to instantly replay a mission if you fail, and iCloud save compatibility make this version a bit more friendly to play in this day and age (and even has a few tricks that GTA3 iOS didn’t have when it first came out). In regards to Vice City, the same open-world freedom to do whatever you want still exists and translates well to iOS. If you’re one of the few people that have never been exposed to a Grand Theft Auto game, I’d advise you to check out our review of GTA3 for a quick recap in regards to general gameplay rules and overarching story architecture. Other than some lingering control issues, Vice City is well worth checking out for a blast to the past.
However, with the release of GTA: Vice City ($4.99), Rockstar has delivered a refined port with improved controls, nuanced improvements to the visuals and gameplay, all with the great story and totally awesome soundtrack that made it popular ten years ago.
Similarly, when GTA3 ($4.99) debuted on iOS last year, we thought it was a pretty good port of the PS2 title with the exception of its touch controls. However, I think Rockstar really started to hit its stride when it released Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. When Grand Theft Auto 3 hit the video game scene over a decade ago, it caused a pretty big splash with its shift to 3D action as well as the elaborate (for its time) narrative being weaved in Liberty City.
