Possibly one of the greatest main themes in videogames history.
piraque ez and best intro cutscene.
Hell yes
Ehh... BULLY is better
Fuk yea
Lmao definitely not...
It's funny how you are pretty much the only youtuber in the face of the earth to review the classic gta's, instead of just talking about how good they are, can't wait for my boy Vice City Stories next!
Spectator this is why i subscribed to this channel
Exactly
Vice City Stories was the shit! So many features, vehicles etc only that game had
Any game that takes place in Vice is a awesome game in my eyes, that's why i will call bullshit if Gta VI doesn't take place in Vice City or San Fierro
go to the youtube channel badinfos pretty much the same but he plays the games
This was my first GTA game.
I was so impressed by the amount of freedom this game provided, that i didn't play anything (almost) else for the rest of 2007.
And Lips 106 is best radio.
GTA3 was my 1st played, but LCS' the 1st I had beaten.
Head radio was the favorite for me.
CHRISPLAYER 95 you’re the only one who knows what’s up in this comment section
Kodennn I played and beat GTA 3 first with a broken mouse. Then I beat LCS and VCS on the PSP, VC and SA on mobile. Though, I couldn't finished SA due to the Jet mission on my first try, so I replayed SA from the start and beat it.
Rise FM and The Liberty Jam were my favorites
Going from 16bit GBA games to have a full GTA game on handheld was mind blowing at the time
The reason bikes aren’t banned in GTA IV, is because GTA IV is a part of the HD Universe, GTA 3 and GTA LCS are part of the 3D Universe.
Fedzor The reason bikes were banned, was because Rockstar didn't know how to implement them back then....
Not necessarily, but the point I'm trying to make; Is that both cities are in different universes, therefore they don't have the same rules, laws, etc.
@ロボット鳥山 Yes of-course, but as far as the game world goes, this is the explanation.
GTA LCS had bikes...
@@scp2110 Because they weren't banned yet...
I rember playing the shit outta that game. Around that time my parents got divorced, it was pretty messy. I was around 16 I think at that time, so I was constantly dragged into their shit. But this game helped me through a tough time in my young life, so it will always have a special place in my heart ♥
I was in a similar situation with my parents. This game holds a special place in my heart, and it always helps me feel better. I hope things are better for you now too.
Why haven’t Rockstar just released Vice City Stories for mobile yet? Come on, they missed the 10 year anniversary, and who wouldn’t want the whole 3D era of GTA on their mobile device?
I think it is more because of Phil Collins cameo.
1) Because it didn't do as well as the others when it originally released.
2) Because the mobile port of LCS did worse than Rockstar expected.
3) All licences for the music expired so Rockstar would have to throw a lot of money out to regain the licenced music.
@King Aadarsh III same it was not my favorite but I loved it. I'm not sure if I even have a favorite anymore.
@@TRG_real ? Stfu they got money.
@@ariesradke6193 Yeah, money that they want to spend on future games instead of old nearly forgotten ones.
Actually, you can fly helicopters, but you don't have any opportunity to get one. Only if you do some bugs ;) It was a mission where a Heli fly across the sea towards your city and makes a small stop on a building, very close to the bridge. If you get here before him and jump with a bike on the building by doing bumping into the edge of the bridge, you can hijack the Heli.
There's another one, R* left in some code that lets you spawn a hunter in a mission:
th-cam.com/video/HjXaFArdTfo/w-d-xo.html
i remember back in the day I downloaded a modded save to my PSP that had a helicopter stored in the safehouse garage. the game engine totally supports helis but they didn't implement any because they wanted to keep it like GTA3
Rattler haha i hav a cheat menu that allows u to spawn helis
Yeah, a lot of buildings aren't solid except at the bottom, people who learned to fly GTA3's Dodo found the same thing
I remember going up the stairs of that building in order to not trigger the next event and there it was, functional helicopter
The first GTA I've ever played. This game will always have a special place in my heart
I can relate...it will always be no.1
My Dad was a driver on GTA: LCS. They were doing preliminary pictures in Scotland for building archetypes. Was the best story to tell in school.
From what I can remember, the PSP version of GTA: LCS didn't have many major slowdown issues that the PS2 Port did.
Playing LCS on my Vita right now and there is a little stutter sometimes when rain starts to fall or when turning a corner, but it's barely noticeable.
I didn't have any lag when playing on the PS2 Port. Maybe I didn't notice.
I had a few slowdowns on the PSP version it does play faster of a memory stick which i did at one point. I think with the PSP version no one really cared cause it's 3D GTA on a portable system but the slowdown on the PS2 was unacceptable since San Andreas ran like butter *compared* to this. I think Rockstar Leeds or North Half assed this port big time and made no optimzations to game.
Kinda reminds me of the San Andreas port to Xbox, I wish Vienna ported it instead of North. It probably wouldn't have come out until 2006 though.
what's GTA? you mean GDA?
Just beat this for the first time today. Simply amazing loved every second of it . Wish toni and his mom were a bit more fleshed out I loved those missions
I just got back into this game! Perfect timing, seriously.
Same, lol
Same but I'm playing it on PC a mod for Vice City
Carl Smith Ah yes, I've heard of that mod. It looks awesome.
Retro Plus My favorite thing was getting a Heli because your not supposed to do so.
2is Toomuch Oh really? You can get a Helicopter in GTA liberty city stories?
Just wanted to say on the subject of motorcycles being in GTA 4 even though that game takes place in 2008 and they were supposedly banned in Liberty City by 2001 - Rockstar themselves have explicitly stated that there are three completely separate universes in the series. 1.) The 2D universe, consisting of GTA 1, GTA 2, GTA London 1961, and GTA London 1969, 2.) the 3D universe, consisting of GTA 3, Vice City, San Andreas, Liberty City Stories, Vice City Stories, and the obscure GTA Advance, and 3.) The HD universe, consisting of GTA 4, Episodes from Liberty City, Chinatown Wars, and GTA V. So the bike ban of the 3D universe that affects GTA 3 doesn't exist in the Liberty City of the HD universe where GTA 4 takes place. A great video though! I'm a big fan, and will continue to watch your content. Quality stuff.
Actually GTA 4 and 5 take place in a different universe than the PS2 games. So the motorcycle ban could just not exist.
Ray Valor But Lazlow is in every GTA game.
They are in the same universe. GTA 3 has no motorcycles is because it's shit.
Mazzy Kojima - rockstar literally said the games are in different universes
@@PoopyDoopy39 shhhhh, the ducfetnt universes is still a shitty thing
So all the games co exist in one universe to me
@@MarcusCollins69 how though. LC and LS are so different
I miss the days when R* released a game more than once every 4-5 years.
Yea not gta
Gee Dee Ayy
lol
Sounds like a greeting I'd hear in the Australian outback. "Oi mate. Gee dee, ayy?"
Is that Varg's beautiful smile i see?
my son. i have found you.
Hi Varg. Burnin any churches yet?
can't wait for GTA:VCS - ColourShed review. it's one of my favourite classic GTA series.it had Amazing soundtrack, Awesome graphic and a good story. not to mention Drug war territories before GTA:CTW. This game is an endless enjoyment from my childhood. Ps: i love your video
I Don't have any VSC Is the best GTA IMO.
0:16 “the GDA series” I laughed so hard
*Finds Colourshed Channel*
*Watches all GTA reviews*
*Starts Re-playing Liberty City Stories*
*Colourshed uploads LCS review*
Coincidence? I think not.
Growing up as a kid when this game came out, the main theme song was such a banger that I felt like a major badass everytime I listened to it. One of my favorite GTA games of all time!
8:19 predicted Cyberpunk
This is one of my favorite gta games, maybe the most forgotten. It doesn’t have as many features as Vice City Stories but it improves on GTA 3 in so many ways like with targeting and aiming, the map, better physics, bikes, better radio, etc. People always complain about no helicopters or no swimming but it never really bothered me, and I can’t say I’ve ever noticed a frame rate issue and I’ve played this game a ton. In 2020 I 100% completed all the PS2 era GTA’s and this is right up there with Vice City as my all time favorites in the series. Also the dirt bike missions are one of the most challenging side quests I’ve ever done in a GTA game, loved them.
I just bought this game. Always wanted to play it.
totally agree i have the psp, ps2 and psn versions of this game and the only version i noticed the slowdown on was the psn version. playing on the psp or an actual ps2 to me personally wasnt very noticeable at all this gta was always in my top 3 favorite of all time loved the story not being able to fly or swim never bothered me at all even in gta3 and vice city honestly the 3D era GTA games will forever be the best 5 games in the series gta4 and 5 is good but the 3D era titles have a certain charm about them at least thats my opinion💪💪
It’s a shame the iOS version has so many bad reviews. I remember when this first came out on PSP, it revolutionised what you could do on a handheld, to think you could have a fully fledged ps2 game on the go back in 2005 was insane at the time!. For that alone it’s gotta stand as a feat of technical genius as far as the PSP version goes!
@Niche it runs smooth as fuck on mobile tho
Yeah it was amazing back then and i remember everyone wanted to get a psp, i dont know how they messed up so bad a few years later with the psp vita
@@LG-ro5lepassion was dying in many places in the industry at that time, it fully died as soon as 8th gen rolled out
GTA IOS is released and instantly becomes abandonware. Don't risk your money, they do not care if the applications work.
God damn my stomach was pounded with nostalgia hearing the theme music for this game in your intro, haven’t heard that in a long time I loved this game.
Bruhhhh that motorcycle sound hit me 😂😩😩 the nostalgia
I still remember the crossbike was called sanchez😂😂😂
I remember getting 6 stars stealing a tank and storing it in the second town.
Even while I'm at a GTA video I still run into Homestuck!!! I really can't outrun my past xDDD
“If a game today would have slowdown like this, it would be an outcry”
Let me introduceyou to the pc version of red dead2
SlimmyNilly let me introduce you too Cyberpunk 2077
@@initailo1536 spot on :D
Let me introduce you to any Rockstar PC port
Let me introduce you to the GTA Trilogy Definitive Editions
You have motivated me to go back and play all the classic GTA games! Getting through 3, will then do VC & SA, then LCS and VCS. Even though these games are showing their age, they have some magic about them I don't seem to feel with GTA V. I don't get why your videos aren't way more popular. Thanks!
What slowdowns are you talking about?? I have both the PSP and PS2 versions and never noticed any slowdown. (I have the canadian versions).
LeoneFamily Some systems have lag oddly enough, no idea if its a storage thing or what though (i.e. how it’s installed)
I never had slowdown issues either on both.. And it plays even better on a Vita.(slightly better graphics, less pop up)
I don't remember any significant slowdowns either (American version on PS2).
No slowdowns
it was a bit laggy sometimes on my psp 3000
Tony:*blocks traffic for 0.01 second
Traffic:"Hurry up! I'm late for a swinging party"
This game had one of the best GTA Theme music
As somebody who lives in a city, let me tell you it's not at all inaccurate the amount of construction happening in LCS.
Facts
The site being completely empty and nobody ever working there is pretty accurate as well.
LCS would be great if it had San Andreas features, not all but at least just don’t leave it blandly identical to GTA III like you said. Vice city Stories is a lot better. LCS is fun, but it’s really tedious. Love this vid, great job
I can't tell you how excited I was to get this on Christmas when it came out... A portable full fledge 3d gta? Hell yes! I remember going to the basement with my step brother and meticulously unwrapping the presents downstairs to see if we got it. The amount of hours I spent playing this game on car trips... Outside with my friends, on vacation. In bed oh my goodness great times
11:44 I never really realized how many games Rockstar made from 2001 to 2006. They made a GTA games every year in that span except 2003. And they also had multiple other great games too. Now it's been 8 years since GTA V and the only game we got was RDR2.
Rockstar isnt what it used to be no more
There's a PC port that uses Vice City as base. It has all the main story missions, almost all the side missions, options to enable or disable trails and reflections. All the radio stations etc... It's a really well done job. To install it is very easy, you just download it and install it in an empty folder. A lot of modders worked at it, including ThirteenAG, the author of Widescreen Fix for many games. It's name is "liberty city stories remake" or something like that, rn it is in beta 5 but it works very well, faithful to the original
8:17 Cyberpunk sends it's regards
Lol
I like how you can run with two handed/heavy weapons in this game. That is already an improvement on the gunplay for me.
At 8:19, foreshadowing for Cyberpunk2077. Nice
What? The game on PSP ran fine, I had it. The only slowdown I remember was when a lot of cars were exploding. Other than that, it was some areas in VCS that were laggy. I do hear a lot of complaints about the PS2 port though.
the ps2 version was oh my god terrible, even back then i kinda get frustrated but i didnt have psp and the game is still enjoyable nonetheless
I played it on PS2. Loved the easy missions and the all out violent mayhem. A blast!!!
Being able to carry grand theft auto in your pocket was amazing
Maybe you should do a Burnout 3: Takedown Review. THE most legendary Arcade Racer on the PS2
You should review the Saints Row series in the future.
Omg yesss
i agree
Your dream came true bro haha he made 2 vids
@Covid 19 You are an idiot and should not have any sort of internet access.
@Covid 19 - Saints Row 1 & 2 are not GTA ripoffs. They have their tone, atmosphere, and methods of storytelling that makes them different from GTA.
Your reviews are fair and opinions of your own personal feelings on the game shows you're a real gamer. Not some fake journalists IGN reviewer. I subscribe, cheers
Pretty much you don't have to be a company to produce good reviews
Even the ps3 version didn't addressed the slow down issue, since it's just a straight port (again), good video, like many have said before, it's uncommon to find an actual review of this game.
Great upload and agree its sad we don't have any of them on Switch. Would like to see the stories games on there one day
My first GTA I played.
Loved the graphics but pretty boring once you finish the game, I kept on trying to get into impossible places and trying to find a helicopter spawn lmfao.
The game entertained me so much and I will always love it.
You can get save files to have the helicopter in the garage (atleast on PSP). Apparently it's possible to steal in one of the missions. The PSP also has a trainer if you can get it working.
Just use controller setting 2 and it uses the helicopter controls for GTA VCS
Yaa correct boring story
At 8:25 cyberpunk 2077 comes to mind lolz
I was just about to say that kol
When vita came out i was hoping for a new stories gta titile to come out...
I was hoping for a San Andreas stories
I love the format of your reviews. They're so comprehensive!
When I first played the Android/iOS version, I was amazed to see the Lighting and shadows.
Relieved I came across your review. You saved me from getting the PS2 port, I had no idea the slow down was still that bad!
AvengedS939 yeah it’s a reason I cant play it more then 3 hours at a time
It’s fine on vita
When I got my PSP back in 07 this was the first game that I bought along with Burnout Legends. Completed it 100%, took it to school and played multiplayer with my friends PSP, it was probably my first time with a GTA Onine-like experience. Great review CS!
I got it for Android yesterday and I just unlocked the 2nd island. The game is so AWESOME!
I feel that the story games are basically the improved versions of the games they are prequels to.A also I don't have that slowdown problem.Also there is multiple ways to get a helicopter.
As a huge GTA fan, who has played all the 3D titles multiple times over the years, I can say they're all good, if not spectacular. But...LCS is probably the weakest (technically III is the weakest by comparison, but it was the first and obviously it was revolutionary for it's time, it just hasn't aged that well) LCS has the least interesting story and protagonist (again, besides Claude and III). It's basically a prequel to the original GTA III, the improved gameplay itself and in-game map inclusion is what makes me say it is technically better. But story wise (which is very important in this particular series of course) it's so mediocre.
Toni has an actual character, unlike Claude who was literally intended to be a reflection of the player themselves, but it's the most basic of all protagonists with actual personalities.
He has no personal inner struggle like Vic Vance or CJ, he's just another generic mob enforcer who happens to be really good at it. His greatest struggles come down to "I gotta help Salvatore!" and anything else he faces is just a distraction. He doesn't even have a great ambition to be a boss himself like Tommy Vercetti. He's happy doing all the heavy work himself, and giving the glory to Salvatore, who's loyalty to him NEVER sways, not even slightly. He never once questions if what he's doing is right. He does some other stuff unrelated to the Leone Family, but just...for money...which he doesn't even really need for anything important (like CJ, Vic, or Tommy). When he's forced to kill his underboss Vincenzo, who betrays him, he doesn't even care or mention it again. His mom tried to kill him like a psychotic bitch, and he just wordlessly shrugs it off and forgives her after he was made. Every huge thing Sal asks him to do (like assassinate the fucking MAYOR of the city, fight a street war with the Diablos, single-handedly wipe out the Sindacco family, and destroy a Yakuza tank surrounded by their guards) he's just like "Okay, whatever, no problem Sal." He doesn't evolve or learn anything new about himself throughout his whole story. It's shocking how hollow and static his character and journey are, and nobody else seems to ever point it out. And the final mission? Easily the dullest and most anticlimactic of all GTA games. Just shoot a bunch of boats, then a heli, and it's over, and the victory is so hollow because you get 500k (which doesn't even matter at that point, and u can only buy guns anyway) and you know where the Leone's are gonna end up in 3 years anyway (with Sal dead, and Toni never heard from again). Still a good game technically speaking, but so mediocre of a GTA game. I just had to vent that.
I don't knoooow.. I remember playing it on my PSP (3000) with smooth 30fps.. :O
Cooper the point of performance critique is to critique that they ported this game badly to ps2
Martti Kauppi
It works perfectly fine on the PS2. I mean if you have a hard on for fps you will notice it. But if you play a game for the sake of playing a game you won't notice it.
Same
My first ever gta experience ever, psp is goated.
Also my first ever open world experience, so addicted as a kid
I started Liberty City Stories in preparation for the GTA Trilogy DE, for the first time in 2021 (8K widescreen in PCSX2 is nice). Anyway, I knew this was basically the city and activities from GTA 3 for the most part, but I'm surprised at how visuals are better than GTA3 (even if it's 5 years newer, it was still originally a PSP title). Also, there's soooo much content in this game.
Like besides the actually full blown story, there are tons of collectibles, full blown side missions and vehicle side missions. Also stunts, packages and businesses (car/bike dealer? Lol).
My grandma bought me A PSP and this game for my 12th birthday, it was the happiest birthday of my entire life lol I miss you Grandma..... RIP
This was my first GTA game, so I have fond memories of it ^^ And it also cemented the 3D era version of Liberty City as my favorite setting of the games.
Dang, this was my childhood, along with VCS. Loved those games
15:05 I would disagree for anyone to not pick it up (considering they have played the other GTA titles). Storywise, its a great companion piece to GTA 3 and San Andreas and fleshes out the stories of the Sindacco and Leone crime family. I played the PS2 version a long time back and would still prefer slow down over the clunky touch controls of the mobile port.
*Finally* *Also, I only know about you channel for about a month, and I like what I'm seeing* Can't wait for more
It's funny keeping hearing the accent: "GDA 3". It's gonna kill many braincells for lots of people xD
Originally played it on the PSP and just bought it on the PS3 as a PS2 classic but it's borderline unplayable on the PS3. The port is awful, frame rate is not consistent and graphics are extremely grainy. They did an awful job porting this
8:19 *coughs* Cyberpunk *coughs*
Man I loved this game back in the day on my psp. Fun Fact: You actually can fly in this game but you have to ride backwards up the stairs on a motorcycle so as to not trigger the yellow marker that starts that first mission with the helicopter on the roof
*G D A*
Uh, you're aware they used the same Liberty City from GTA 3? It's not a brand new rendition, they just updated it, I know because some of the interiors are still there despite the fact you aren't supposed to see them. You can do this with almost any area that had an interior by using the manual aim against the wall of something that was an interior in GTA 3, you'll be able to look through the walls and see them still there. Like the bathroom for Ray's missions...except only the bathroom doors are present...strange, I know and Wong's laundromat and MANY others lol Not to mention the Dodo plane, random code, and txt files are still there from GTA 3. It's the same with Vice City Stories, Rockstar left a lot of interiors in from the previous games in the Stories sections :-) Just letting you know...
And it only looks different because the camera and FOV are different. The FOV really shits me and the camera is too flat, especially when driving tall vehicles you have to tilt the camera downward to see more in front of you, but can't do it regularly because you crash very easily anyway. It looks like wax/plastic whereas III, VC, and SA (PS2) don't.
True but also there's GTA Chinatown Wars on the DS, PSP, and Mobile but I still would like to play them on a regular console.
this was my first *real* GTA game and I loved every minute of it.
I could see where other games had been influenced by it and the influences of previous games in it, and I found myself playing it like other open world games in a cross-discipline fashion.
Helicopters are not accessible in the city considering that the whole city/map is a reuse from III, the buildings don't have roofs. And just like in III, planes are not meant to fly due to 9/11.
Edit: You can find ways to store a helicopter in game, but it'll be a chore to do so.
I think it doesn't have San Andreas' more advance controls not because they're trying to be safe (but that is a part of it) but because of the PSP itself. There's not enough buttons to bind these movement like crouch and stuff.
I don't remember much but I guess they solved this issue in Vice City Stories with combined keys control.
LOL I thought my phone was ringing at the start because that's my ringtone 😂 man, this game brings back so many memories when I was a kid
I miss the old gta when they actually focused on story, now it’s just all about online Nd less story.
Yeah true but what can we do?
The gta online community is huge gotta give them what they want since they're the most vocal
You can steal a Maverick in 2 different missions by doing some skilled jumps ! Also there are several flying vehicles obtainable via vehicle spawners. Since LCS uses a enhanced version of the Vice City engine, you can fly the Maverick, Police Maverick, VCN Maverick (yes VCN), and Hunter. The GTA 3 Dodo is also there but doesn't work. Also I never experienced slow-downs on my PS2 version and I have the PAL (EU) version.
If you're gonna play this game, play it on PCSX2. (PS2 Emulator) - that way you benefit from 1080p+ resolution AND no slowdown. (Depending on your PC of course)
8:58 Also - GTA 4 is a "reboot" of the franchise, set in another "universe" (The HD Era) so any rules or stuff said in GTA 3's 3D Era, do not apply to GTA 4's.
I had a PSP and had both the GTA games. Really impressive to have such big sandbox games in a handheld.
They should remaster and release LCS with features in VCS and SA, and VCS needs features in SA. (Owner of both console games)
I played this whole game on PSP as a 10 year old. Was my first GTA ever.
I never noticed the FPS issues.
Review Midnight Club LA pls.
"If a brand new game today had slowdown like this on launch day, there's be a huge outcry"
Cyberpunk is proof today
Just played LCS on PS2 and I never had the kind of slowdowns you show in 14:53. Yes framerate was bad, especially in your hideout or on foot, but I never experienced it as a "slowdown". I wonder if your disc was scratched or something.
Would have loved to see something like this for GTA San Andreas. LA in the 80s or 70s.
According to recent leaks, GTA 6' story might take us back to the 80s.
On psp you can overclock it to max. Gta lcs will improve its performance 25/30fps
EDIT:NEED CFW
For people that want to replay these games;
In chronological order:
1984 - Vice City Stories
1986 - Vice City
1992 - San Andreas
1998 - Liberty City Stories
2001 - Grand Theft Auto III
2009 - Chinatown Wars
There wasn't slow down on the psp version anywhere near as bad as the ps2 version.
Great channel with great reviews. Nothing but classics and you go in depth with the review just keep working hard you’ll get the recognition soon enough
8:19 You just predicted Cyberpunk
I love how you talk about the gameplay being distracting as a scene plays in which you ride past a giant billboard of a lady's chest 4:11 no clue whether this was done purposefully but I love it
8:20 cyberpunk 2077
Thank god I found your channel lol I started buying ps1 ps2 and ps3 games and your reviews makes up my mind on a lot of them
The slowdown never bothered me back in the day
Great game. I think the best way to experience it is by playing it on PC on the PSP emulator (PPSSPP). With the right settings the fps never drop that much, unless there's a storm and a lot of cars.
It's better on real hardware
My morning went from a 7 to a 10 when I see this in my sub bar.
John Smith wish my mornings were a 7
The delay experienced during the radio-controlled car mission is deliberate.
I dunno. This never felt as good to me as GTA 3, VC, or SA. I didn't find the story as entertaining or the atmosphere as appealing. I wasn't even bothered by the slowdown he mentioned. I wasn't really conscious of such things back when I played it. Part of it maybe nostalgia but to me LCS just didn't come close to the earlier 3D games. I never played VCS but I'm not exactly eager to play it either.
VCS is the most underrated game in the series IMO. Highly recommend giving it a playthrough.
@@chrisdelgado4621 The most underrated game is Chinatown Wars, even LCS is more overlooked
