When I think that GTA Advance, GTA Liberty City Stories, GTA Vice City Stories and GTA Chinatown Wars were never released on PC (and won't be), I really feel like crying!
I find it really ironic how gta 3 is the first 3D universe game but chronologically it takes place last, but Vice city stories is the last 3D universe game but chronologically it takes place first.
I played all of the GTA games in chronological order almost a decade ago and it was a big mistake lol because you start with the newest game and end with the oldest game, so you're constantly losing and gaining random features between games. Now I'm playing all of them again, but this time in release order and I'm enjoying GTA III and Vice City *waaaayyy* more than I did before.
Please *DON"T* compare the graphics in this video. Both of these games were played on various emulators. That's why the picture on PS2 looks rather dull.
and you both literally comparing the handheld with the big console it's kinda unfair to compare their graphic, they did their best to make the game look good enough while smooth enough to be playable
Fun fact: it is actually possible to run and aim with certain small guns in the PSP version. Just start running and get into aiming mode without stopping. You will be running in one direction only, but that is still very useful, and you do get to choose what direction to run in, of course.
you can do that on the pc version of gta 3 and vice city aswell (actually all versions besides mobile and definitive edition) you tap the sprint button and shoot, this works with all the one handed guns but the issue is that on ps2 you cant use auto aim with this little trick
Man, can't wait for GTA VCS Mobile to come out. EDIT: I can’t believe people are still replying to this knowing that the mobile version of VCS will never be made by Rockstar
I can't help but noticed you didn't point out that the PSP version almost ALWAYS has your car missing from the garage but it's fixed on the PS2 version. No one points that out.
I hope I understand you well enough since your English isn't so good but no worries :-) Yeah, I had the UMD and PSN version on my PSP and only on RARE occasions does the car save in the garage which kind takes the fun out of it for me, I like the Voodoo and Greenwood in VCS but they are so rare and it really frustrates me lol But at the same time, I understand given the amount of detail and mini games they crammed into the PSP version but I'm glad they fixed it for the PS2 :-) Your car you drive to the location vanishes after the cinematic type cutscenes, sometimes a taxi or police car can appear in for shits and giggles but other than that, the game is one of my all time GTA favorites. It's just a LOT of fun :-)
Okay, this is something small but strange: in Little Haiti, there is house just outside that flood control type 'road' don't know the technical term but hope you know what I mean, on one of the houses, there is blank white square in GTA Vice City...in Vice City Stories, the white square is gone and a chicken with 'Haitians' written under it is in it's place, I have NO clue why this is, but it's there I assure you. It's better to be seen on the PS2 version in GTA VCS :-)
Busta Yeah I played them 8-10 years ago. I also played gta san and adreas, gts 3 and vice city a while back to. How old are you by the way? I'm turning 21 this year lol
I have already noticed some differences between the two devices, especially in this game, and there is something else, such as: the sound of hunter is different, but I thank you very much that you have highlighted these differences...
Pure Wisky it should come this month cuz they did the same shit with GTA LCS it was suppose to be released on October 24 (2015) but they ended up releasing it on December 17 (2015) on iOS...
The biggest and only reason to play on the PS2 is the duel thumbstick controls. I actually think PSP looks nicer, especially with the texture upscaling on emulator.
Okay so you may not see this comment but your videos are amazing. I absolutely love learning about GTA games and you your videos so high quality and soothing, it blows my mind
Right now you can only get VCS and LCS on PS3 (possibly PS4, I didn't look that hard) but they are a direct port of the PS2 version. Horribly messy 480p graphics and no analog control.
For whatever reason I always got the "stories" version of these games as a *kid* lol. I wonder if my mom thought "stories" meant I wouldn't be blowing shit up.. Or maybe she didn't really care. I never ended up getting GTASA tho, only played it at friends houses.. But I did have VCS on PSP and ho-ly shit it was the best ever as a teenager. Going on a road trip? Play some gta... Man, the PSP was soo far ahead of its time. I honestly wish they'd bring something back like that. I would much rather have that, than these garbage mobile games today.
Looks like you're using stable build of PCSX2 which still leaving graphical bugs in GTA games (mostly in HUD area, GTAIII and Vice city has overlapping text shadows, while VCS and LCS has some problem rendering the text as shown on your video, most noticeably around 0:35 . SA has a problem too but not in HUD, but more to post-effect problems). You should consider using these nightly builds (yeah I know it's unstable but never had a problem with these builds so far and most graphical bugs in all GTA games already been fixed.): buildbot.orphis.net/pcsx2/index.php (just download the most latest ones). and using OpenGL renderer for those builds fixes the text rendering in LCS and VCS, respecively.
well, just leave texture filtering to Bilinear (PS2) or if your graphics card could handle it, step up to Trilinear (There are 3 variations of Trilinear, bottom ones are most heaviest), for resolution 2x native is fine, again if your graphics card could handle it, step up to 3x native or higher
just checked the PCSX2 wiki, looks like the only way to measure FPS is playing it on windowed mode (the FPS is visible on the window title) or using 3rd party apps like fraps or dxtory
GTA Vice City Stories on PS2 i choose because it's obviously it looks like original Vice City '80 without Trails also and just brings SA cars almost and SA animations (diffrent animations walk run sprint similar to SA) and it has more features!
better to play it on the emulator, because the resolution is higher and the textures are more defined. In the physical version ps2 if you enter too many codes there is a risk that the game will be damaged and no longer starts on the emulator instead you can put the tricks you want without the game being ruined.
I have also this came in my PSP and I feel good when I play this and when I get bored I will very good when I play this and it just passed the time of my in the day
Also several car engine sounds have higher pitch on PS2, like the Freeway, Idaho and Taxi and all the other vehicles in the same category that make those sounds
I know these were meant to be Console Exclusive games, but I feel like GTA LCS and VCS both deserved a PC port. (Knowing Rockstar, if they did it now, they'd most likely botch them up like they did with GTA SA Remastered.)
The GTA Stories games on PSP were great, but there was something about those games that highlighted how bad the PSP's motion blur issue could be (at least orig model, if I'm remembering correctly, later models screens had an interlacing issue?). I had a lot of fun with the PSP, despite it's issues, so picked up a Vita. It's a shame Sony support of Vita dropped like a stone, but if you buy games like GTA Vice City Stories (psp) on PSN, you can play them on the Vita. Between the better screen and the improved analogue sticks, it makes the Stories games a much better experience. I think I got the Stories games bundled with 'Chinatown Wars', which was a very different GTA game (PSP ver was a port from DS), but definitely worth trying. I liked how it handled escaping the police chases, you basically had to run them off the road.
@Paul Bell I don't think I ever played 'Chinatown Wars' on the PSP, I had it on the DS and always found it funny that on the family friendly DS, you were using its touch screen to do drug dealing across its city. The PSP game plays well on the Vita, just a shame that the main PS Store removed Vita, PSP etc games. You can still get them from the Vita's store, for now at least, but it's store app is pretty clunky. It does make me worry, sectioning them off to the Vita store only, it felt like the first step before closing off Vita downloads completely. When I bought 'Chinatown Wars' for my Vita, I think it was part of a Vita bundle with the 'City Stories' games. I got it in a sale and I only knew they'd been reduced because I'd added it to my wishlist, a function which was also removed...
@Paul Bell I totally forgot about the PSP Street. I only ever had an original model PSP 1000, which I got in '05, I ended up installing custom firmware on it but not to pirate PSP games. You could rip PS1 games and then play them on the PSP, so one of my most played games on PSP was the original 'Gran Turismo'. Some games, like GT, ran flawlessly but I think 'Tekken 2' looked like it was running in slow motion, 'Tekken 3' worked well though. It's weird that I went to all that trouble to play PS1 games on PSP, but I've owned the three PS3 models since '08 (80GB phat lasted about 4 years, 12GB super slim lasted about 5yrs & finally a 160GB slim) and don't think I ever played a PS1 game in any of my PS3s. I also used to fill my PSP memory card with MP4s of films or TV I'd ripped from my DVDs, although in the early days you couldn't play native res (480x272) videos, it was limited to 368x208 and the files needed to be named a certain way. I imagine the UMD film format delayed native res support, but it was added eventually and the files could be named normally (plus a more user friendly VIDEO folder to drop files into). I had/have a decent collection of PSP games, but can't remember them all off the top of my head. I know I've got the City Stories games on UMD, 'Lumines' (which I think was how I got the custom firmware), 'Loco Roco', Tekken Dark Resurrection, Ridge Racer etc.
Well, that's not the case with the current latest nightly build of PCSX2, even with my potato pc the game was able to run smoothly when near the ferris wheel
Hey Man Did You noticed at 2:15 it said "I always get my man" this is one of the quotes of a prefect if you get busted in the game bully another game of rockstar
At 2:14 when the npc on the boat says “I always get my man” it seems like it’s straight out of Bully when the prefects incapacitate one of the students or Jimmy.
vadim M, will you make a video on vcs mobile if it comes out? i want to know if songs get removed because i love wave 103 or whatever its called and if they remove any songs i will be upset. btw in vcs theres a glitch where the sniper dot does not change size but in the original vice city the sniper acts like it has a real lazer. and in remaster of vice city on mobile the scope is a weird color for both snipers
Making games using a real person's likeness is a recipe for licensing nightmare. Best examples of this would be GTA VCS with Phil Collins and FF7 Crisis Core with GACKT.
Also.. YOU GET TO USE THE OTHER JOYSTICK TO MOVE THE CAMERA! Lol. That was like the BIGGEST difference for me and made the game so much easier to play/navigate
VCS is such a great game. I just finished 100% run of LCS on my PSP and PS2. I finished VCS on ps2 long time ago and Now i need to buy VCS for PSP and play it for 100% :] aww sweet memories. Shame it was removed from ps3 store :(

But I still would mention that it looks like PS2 has a superior lighting, ofcourse if this is not result of different emmulator configuration.
Vadim M i want music of final this video
That was Liberty City Stories.
what emulator should I need to play VCS & ps2 games on pc or android ?
I still don't understand why Rockstar didn't release a PC version.
It was developed by Rockstar Leeds, in the time Leeds was a small dev, also it would be complicated to port it.
I am pretty sure the unofficial fanmade port still exists, and it runs well, from my own experiences a while ago anyway.
if i am not wrong, Sony did a contract with Rockstar to make the GTA Stories a exclusive for PlayStation
its a PlayStation exclusive
grumpy cat
But lcs is also on mobile
Wow, I was just expecting a side by side comparison, and here you are going in-depth with all the finely detailed and nuanced differences. Well done!

Geometry Dash vp999 Yep.
4:23 PSP sounds sound like GTA IIIs...
It's amazing how 'clean' the PSP versions of LCS and VCS look.
They look like dogshit compared to the PS2
of course, it's emulated. try playing it on the PSp screen.

The biggest and only reason to play on the PS2 is the duel thumbstick controls. I actually think PSP looks nicer, especially with the texture upscaling on emulator.

Rifaldy Ramadhan Thanks for this info, it helped me. Can you tell me what other settings do you use, texture filtering?
well, just leave texture filtering to Bilinear (PS2) or if your graphics card could handle it, step up to Trilinear (There are 3 variations of Trilinear, bottom ones are most heaviest), for resolution 2x native is fine, again if your graphics card could handle it, step up to 3x native or higher
Rifaldy Ramadhan gtx 970 here, trilinear sounds good. Do you know if there is a way to measure FPS in OpenGL hardware renderer?

or using 3rd party apps like fraps or dxtory

Not in my plans.

I guess the side mission rush was inspired by the traffic attack mode in burnout revenge. Just my thought though.
5:37 what is the difference here? I don't notice anything?
WANTZiN Trails just brightens the game and makes lights flashier, nothing big to be honest
Ps2 takes the cake! 💪 ( one of my favorite console ever )
Having 5 gta on one console as a kid would've been heaven
good times when games would get extra content when ported no questions asked nowadays you have to curse the devs family to recveive a patch
Stories games deserves PC version :D
How the hell do you not have over a million subs?!

One thing I don't like about rockstar is that they can't ever stop tweaking a game after they release it
Basically George Lucas
u forgot one thing in psp if u kill soldiers in the start of the game they wont fight back but in ps2 they kill u
I tried the PS2 emulator with this game and the experience was terrible, it was glitchy, whenever I pass the Ferris wheel, my fps drops to 30 below...
That always happened in the ps2 version believe it or not. Also when you have a higher wanted level the framerate tended to tank.
Well, that's not the case with the current latest nightly build of PCSX2, even with my potato pc the game was able to run smoothly when near the ferris wheel
Went thru the video, wasnt the businesses also more fleshed out in the PS2 version?

At 2:14 when the npc on the boat says “I always get my man” it seems like it’s straight out of Bully when the prefects incapacitate one of the students or Jimmy.
vadim M, will you make a video on vcs mobile if it comes out? i want to know if songs get removed because i love wave 103 or whatever its called and if they remove any songs i will be upset. btw in vcs theres a glitch where the sniper dot does not change size but in the original vice city the sniper acts like it has a real lazer. and in remaster of vice city on mobile the scope is a weird color for both snipers
Elite GamingWolf VCS will not be released for mobile my friend, sorry.
How do you play so smooth on HD resolution? Talking about PCSX2
Nobody talks about what the new 6 purchases are wtf
Making games using a real person's likeness is a recipe for licensing nightmare. Best examples of this would be GTA VCS with Phil Collins and FF7 Crisis Core with GACKT.
2:15 was that also a line from Bully?
atleast both versions can swim not like previous Vice City ...
Dude. TH-cam keeps unsubbing me from your channel after a couple weeks
bom video Vadim M falando das diferenças de gta vcs entre psp e ps2 que tal um video da verçao de ps3 do game
I almost forgot that you were using emulators, and thought that the games were that smooth.
Also.. YOU GET TO USE THE OTHER JOYSTICK TO MOVE THE CAMERA! Lol. That was like the BIGGEST difference for me and made the game so much easier to play/navigate
Fantastic video 😉 👍
If you recorded VCS on the PPSSPP emulator, how are you able to play multiplayer mode?
Will there be a Liberty City Stories comparison?
if they hadn't removed the multiplayer in the ps2 version it would be still played
My first Gta which I owned and not borrow from a friend very underrated game loved it.. :D
VCS is such a great game. I just finished 100% run of LCS on my PSP and PS2. I finished VCS on ps2 long time ago and Now i need to buy VCS for PSP and play it for 100% :] aww sweet memories. Shame it was removed from ps3 store :(
Is it me, or does the PSP version look of 'Higher" quality graphically than the PS2?
Because he used an emulator to show the PSP scenes and those polish the image quality, if wanted.
Ah alright. Reason i asked because it made me a little hesitant on grabbing the PS2 version knowing the quality was worse than the PSP end.
@@Topgear2006 PSP is too bright compared to PS2 and PS2 has more detailed textures and better draw distance
will you also do LCS?
i didn't understand the "trails" thing. what does it do? make the image more vibrant?
Nope, just blurry.
The chainsaw has different sounds in the ps2 version.
Overclocked PSP is the best way to play imo.
What you think about VCS coming this month on Android an iOS?
That's obvious
Aleksander Dobrowolski Obvious? Lol. Sorry my friend but it will not happen. Do not hope anything.
Psp in stubby shotgun GERNADE and rocket launcher seems to use gta 3 explosion sounds
PS2 uses vice city ones
That grenade and rocket launcher one is not from gta 3
hey man can someone explain to me why there is no map in the ps2 showcase I saw that in the first section of the video
I think they made the ps2 verision more of a San Andreas feel, while the psp version feels more Vice City to me.
Feels like the psp version is more like of an san andreas on the psp
@@kurt129 The color in the PS2 version is dark and deep, just like PS2 San Andreas. It's brighter on the PSP version
Ps2 feels more like liberty city lol
@@flamingmonkey7712opposite, PS2 san andreas is too bright
Vadim please, can you make a video about Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories, PS2 vs PSP comparison. (Not graphics comparison)
hey u big convince gta series videos to make beta analysis for gta vcs
