Fun technical fact for those not in 'the know'... the reason Kevin is not Jim in the cut scene is because the game uses a higher poly (better looking) model for the cut scenes. The time that Kevin is Jim in the cut scene is because it's not technically a cut scene just the game camera moved to a different area on the map and controls are taken from the player for the duration. Using a higher poly model for only the cut scenes reduces load on the console whilst playing. I've never modded GTA VC but i'm sure it'd be possible to alter the cut scene model.
Yeah, you have to edit a couple of skin files. I did this when I wanted to edit his watch out. Had to to edit the skins for his other outfits too if I remember correctly. Instead of swapping out just clothes, it always swapped out a new Tommy model with them.
@@fucjk2141 they should gta 4 is basically gta 3 but with better graphics and different new character. Just like gta 5 it's basically San anderas but with better graphics.
2:03 I like how you casually created a legendary twist for Jim Picken's backstory and probably one of the best cross-overs in the history of crossovers, without even knowing. Thats why i fucking love you.
I remember playing this when I was a kiddo, you know, typical day. Sniping people from your safehouse and katana-ing passersby. Ahhhh, the nostalgia. My kind of childhood memories.
Oh man this brings me back... probably too far back. I remember playing this game when I was definitely under the age of 10. It was my dad's game and he let me play it for whatever reason. I do remember he didn't want me to go into the strip club, to the point where he would point out the strip club and tell me that if he saw me in there I wasn't able to play anymore. Being the young child I was, I always woke up earlier than him. I usually had a couple hours of game time before my dad even got out of bed. This game will always hold a weird, but special place in my heart, being my first (and only) GTA game I've played. Thank you for the wonderful video again, Kevin!
I really, really, really like this "(Game name) but (something)" series videos. They are hilarious and original on such a level where many other gaming related channels and/or videos can not even match. Subbed !
I think I raged so hard at that when I was a kid I threw my controller across the room, thus my entire PS2 flew with it. Wired controllers weren't fun...
I've been watching you so long that I don't even remember when I started watching you. I do know I watched your vice city let's play back in the day when it was brand new. I looked forward to it every day. It was definitely a series (along with others) that got me to have you be my favorite content creator
When I see someone playing GTA Vice City, it really feels nostalgic. It makes me remember old days. When I used to invite my friends and then I used to play and they watch me playing and they keep yelling over me because I was a piece of shit in Vice City.
Ah that intro it gets me every time. I just remembered as a kid we didn’t have a memory card and we’d constantly play it just to run around and goof off so we practically remembered the lines when they’d pull in after losing the “coke cola”
What about San Andreas and GTA 4? it's better than Vice City also the story in Vice City is good because they were inspired by the Scarface Movie/Game if it wasn't inspired by that movie it would be much different.
I didn't think I'd ever be to the point in my life where I really have nothing better to do than watch someone else play a video game. But that's beside the point. You sir are entertaining af 😂
Omg, I love your nostalgia...I quite literally had this game at launch, the guide (paper...before the days of this PC world) and had it beat and most of the secret packages and what not I think within 24 hours. This was digital crack back in the day. I was a good lil gamer nerd back then...now I can't get past the tutorial in some games before I'm installing the next XD
I have really bad anxiety and until recently I stopped going to therapy and taking medication but these videos make me laugh and forget my life. They distract me and make me happy. Thanks for the video
I actually do the weirdest shit when I'm on the phone and totally don't realise. I've walked across the top of the couch multiple times and had people being like "what the absolute fuck are you doing?"
Such a great game with great music. I picked it up on its release date for PS2 and skipped class to play it. I just drove around listening to the music. Those were the days.
5:08 I think there is something wrong with me that I, a 16 year old, knew the INSTANCE I heard those two notes that it was Jeff Lynne's ELO. Good thing you didn't play anymore of it, you would have got a copyright strike, they're pretty tight about that stuff. (ELO is my favorite band and I have to say I geeked out a bit)
Used to follow your old account (or maybe it’s this account with a different name) watched every episode of your San Andreas play through and your vice city play through. Came across you tonight in my recommended videos but not for this video, for a video on goblet of fire! Great to see you’re still making videos man love it
ABSOLUTELY FULL PLAYTHROUGH OF THIS PLEASE! THIS IS ONE OF MY FAV GAMES FROM MY CHILDHOOD AND WOULD LOVE TO SEE A FANTASTIC CHANNEL LIKE YOURS PLAY THIS
First gta I ever played used to love the game, started playing when I was in elementary school mildly concerned my family with the killing and man do I miss the cheat books xD I'm actually eighteen now this game and like spyro n shit are what got me into gaming lol
I loved all the music and the 80s aesthetics. It was a perfect game. I really hope that the next GTA is in Vice City. I'll probably pass if it's not, because all of the money grabbing & anti-consumer things Rockstar/Take Two did to PC players on GTAV.
The fact that he said “who’s dumb enough to get hit by a car?”
Even though Kevin got hit by a car in real life. ICONIC
I'm trying to take myself less seriously these days, and Kevin is my hero when it comes to embracing this ideal.
you mean ironic
@@LegendaryAceAttorney this was 5 years ago but I think I did mean iconic lol
so kevin getting knocked by a honda civic is ironic? do you not know the meaning of iconic you 100% mean ironic lol xd

Im impressed you know that.

@conker the squirrel, it's just a couple of years modding experience for Garry's Mod of all things that taught me the inner workings of games!
Yeah, you have to edit a couple of skin files. I did this when I wanted to edit his watch out. Had to to edit the skins for his other outfits too if I remember correctly. Instead of swapping out just clothes, it always swapped out a new Tommy model with them.
I thought this was common knowledge. I assumed that when I was very young and verified it once I began modding old games.

This is how Jim made all his money for his cult.
HAHAHA, GARRYYY!
It may be old. But it will never die.
Vice city will just respawn at the nearest hospital
i wish they'd remake this game like they did resident evil remake. basically just upgrade the graphics and thats it.
i wish they'd make GTA VI in vice city. but rockstars too busy with gta v online and milking all the money from microtransactions :(
They did, you can buy it on ps4 from the ps store. Same with gta 3 and San Andreas
Beetlejuice Green Those aren’t remakes, or even remasters. They’re literally just the PS2 versions with a resolution boost.

Excel,,
Dude, i thought the ice cream trucks that you run in the game sold drugs, not explosives.
There is just something phenomenal about Kevin's comedy I swear .
Ugh the nostalgia is real. Pls dont ever stop making videos, you're too funny.
"God they're so in sync. I can see why they run this town."
It's all that cocaine they do.
You're so freaking hilarious. Your randomness is outstanding, but in a good way. Keep it up.

Sorry about that.

Same here. Wave 103, Flash FM, Fever 105 and V-Rock have so much good music in them.

This reminds me so much of your playthrough on the old channel. That was a really entertaining series

I can't describe how much I love your channel
I walk around the house while im on the phone too Kevin!
I actually do the weirdest shit when I'm on the phone and totally don't realise. I've walked across the top of the couch multiple times and had people being like "what the absolute fuck are you doing?"
Matt Norris Yeah I jump up on the couch too sometimes!
Such a great game with great music. I picked it up on its release date for PS2 and skipped class to play it. I just drove around listening to the music. Those were the days.
Ah what a great song to watch a Kevin video to.
This video made me cry with laughter, and brought back so many memories. Thank you Jim Pickens.
5:08 I think there is something wrong with me that I, a 16 year old, knew the INSTANCE I heard those two notes that it was Jeff Lynne's ELO.

Brings back memories of cutting school just to play this.
11:46 "Knock him over made me a good citizen. This should make me a great citizen!" made me laugh hard man 😂
When you remember when he did this game on his old channel and you watched every episode.
Vice City is the series of yours which is when I subscribed way back when. Excited to see you cover it again
I miss your let’s play of this when you kept failing every mission 😂
I like to think that Jim and Tommy are just different personalities and each skin is how they see themselves
Could you play this one again? It’s so good and your commentary makes it even better.
Thank you kevin for always playing absolute GEMS
Omg I loved this game, seeing this was a nostalgia trip
I really hope you'll keep playing this, this is literally my fave game.

Nope, the car didn't even get too far, plus it was pretty slow.
If it was an ultracop, he'd bust you in a cheetah or infernus at top speed.
ThePhirenor he was still being dragged by a car. In san andreas if that happened a cop or persion pulling you out would fall.
ThePhirenor also didn't get far because no one gets away from ultra-cop
