Still wish those PC ports of Liberty City and Vice City Stories weren’t ndaed and shutdown by those Take Two assholes. It would’ve had custom soundtrack ability, 4K support, 60 fps. All the bells and whistles.
@Kaptain Torrent does this mean the PC ports haven’t been shutdown by Take Two/Rockstar?
Bace
The Liberty City Stories main theme has no business slapping this hard
FACTS
Baloney this theme slaps bout as hard as Vice City's did
This, San Andreas, and GTA IV are my top three GTA Themes. Vice City Stories is 4th on my list
It sounds more fitting for an old Russian movie.
@@daevonthesavage7483gta 4 + TBOGT and TLAD for me is the best, vcs is 2nd, lcs is the 3rd.
This was my first own GTA. I played it daily back then. I absolutely love it, it is a classic for me.
What year did this come out in
@@deeward5572 It was released in 2005.
Same
One of my greatest memories in life was playing GTA 3 and gun with my dad everyday after school. When I got older I played liberty city stories myself and was thw first gra i ever completed.
same here dawg!
Frank Vincent is such a legend for lending his voice to Salvatore Leone in all the games he appears in.
I mean, he got paid a lot of money to read lines. Not like he sacrificed something.
The best line in this game is “Jesus Tony you drive like a bitch”😂😂 delivery is perfect
It's literally "all we had to do was follow the damn train CJ"
Ikr, i always intentionally crashes the car to hear that line, it's just that good
I had an ex who’s sister looked exactly like maria, but had katarina’s exact personality, she was completely nuts and out of control. I hated her so much 😑
She probably shot you behind a bank stealing money huh?
I can fix her
@@PsychoMartyno you can’t

3d era of GTA games is my favorite gaming experience of all time, i watch all kinds of videos about them. Thank you man.
even in 2023 im going back and watching videos about the trilogy and other 3d era games
@@azaz20244 same, i decided to start with VCS and i will finish all these games on 100% with no cheats in chronological order. everything on pc.
@@jackcravford8744 will you obtain special vehicles?
@@Minty_659 nope

33:47 He was a cannibal in GTA III. In a mission with Ray Machowsky t's mentioned he's been seen at a morgue party and he makes you destroy the evidence, wich leads to unlocking him as a mission giver.
PSP emulation has always blown my mind in quality when compared to other 3D emulated systems.
Yeah the Newest Version of PPSSPP is Amazing
PCSX2 is also extremely good
Blew my mind when I loaded up Dissidia 012. I tried it as a "screw it, maybe my machine can run it even though it can't run PS2 emulators" and BAM. Like, what the hell, yanno?
This game was my childhood. The amount of hours under my covers pretending to be asleep but I was playing this
I Still play but on My Vita .... Psp Legendary
This was my first GTA and it's amazing to see someone give it the attention it deserves by doing a deep dive into it all these years later. Great work man!
Great video. I agree that Liberty City Stories is a very underrated game. For something so simple, it had a lot of features and an overall atmosphere that were different than GTA3. I also loved the architectural and geographical changes to the map - like the projects in Portland still being under construction, or the Italian district on Staunton Island.
I loved this game. GTA III is my favorite 3D universe GTA game. Like you, I jumped at the chance to play a new game set in Liberty City and was seriously surprised.
I bought the PS2 versions of this and VCS first because I didn't have a PSP yet
I remember finding a used VCS for ps2 at gamestop in like 2006, never knew it was a psp first but was so excited to find that gem and go back into Vice City. Currently playing LCS for the first time lol.
@@Roscoe-111 I didn't do that well with VCS. There was a mission that I couldn't pass with prostitutes and a firetruck. It was a fun game up until that point. Lol. I actually played both LCS and VCS on PS2 first because I didn't have a PSP yet
After randomly stumbling upon your Bully review recently, I spent the next new days going through most of your catalogue. I have to say, I'm disappointed with TH-cam's recommendation system for not recommending you sooner! You cover so much stuff I'm interested in, especially the Digimon World games.
same
I actually had the same thing happen too.
And I’m seeing this video 11 months after it’s posted makes me sick.
I played this after GTA 3, Vice City & San Andreas, but this was the first GTA I managed to beat since it didn't constantly freeze on me like the others so it's the most nostalgic for me.
The PS2 version didn't run so hot on real hardware either. The PS2 port of VCS ran great though and had a little extra content and bug fixes.
I played the hell out this game back in high school. While the longetivity of the DS was unprecedented, the PSP just had so much more narrative driven games. And a lot of them were absolutely fantastic. This game included…
This game for me is pure nostalgia, and I love it so much. I know it's not what holidays are for but when I was 13 or so I just remember being in Spain for a couple weeks with my family and playing this by the pool and it was glorious. No worries, no cares, just having fun 🥲
I played this and VCS on my first deployment. It was my first GTA and absolutely blew my mind. I still have the discs but play emulated every few years. Still incredibly entertaining.
Fr?
Thank you for your service fam
I miss Rockstar Leeds. When we were 16 we would drive up there and watch them playing GTAV most likely stress testing the online features before they dropped.
So cool that team made this.
What happened to Rockstar Leeds? Did they get shut down?
Yes and no, they did disband but they all went to Rockstar London and or north some went with Rock star San deigo...
Man I remember playing Library City Stories on my PSP while in bed as a kid. I think I finished like around five in the morning before getting caught
Me too, bro
I made the stupid decision to leave my psp plugged in at the gym and I never saw it again
@@the_neo_crusader Most of us have to make that kind of mistake once to learn, don't feel too bad
I really like the melancholy tone of this one and especially Vice City Stories. VCS and Chinatown Wars are tied for my favorite GTA.
I remember having this on the PSP. I can’t even imagine the hours I’ve dumped into this game considering the fact I only had three games for it at the time. This, The Simpsons game, and GTA Chinatown Wars.
So glad to say this is the very first comprehensive review of this game in YT! FuzzySlippers, you've actually been doing the GTA series the real justice it deserves in terms of ACTUALLY showcasing the stories, mechanics and moment to moment gameplay. Also, Liberty City Stories is one of the best handheld games of ALL TIME!!!
Salvatore dying after using the "pedestrians riot" cheat is probably not a deliberate anti-cheat but a consequence of the cheat's effect: everyone around Salvatore is hostile and will attack him.
Having unique character models for certain scenes is something we really take for granted nowadays. I ended up playing the game years after it came out and didn't even consider the ingenuity behind those small touches. This just demonstrates Rockstar's passion for paying attention to small details.
Old rockstar cared. Rockstar games now is horrible all about milking a ancient ass game.
@@Hardcoredawg420fr
@@Hardcoredawg420that’s the nerds still going them moneys fault. They showed with rdr2 they still are the best when they make something
@@MrAdmvp, still wish they would work on the online like they do with gta, but people don’t buy the micro transactions as much in that game so they basically abandoned it, at least compared to gta online.
@@void-master9077the rdo audience knows future tech is stupid so unfortunately rockstar couldn't milk money out of kids.
The voice actor for Tony in LCS was also on Gotham as one of Boss Maroni's men
The hitmen looked like a whole bunch of Jason Stathams 😂😂😂😂
Been binge-watching all of your videos. Keep up the excellent work.
One thing to note though, Donald love has always been a cannibal. I'm gonna quote the wiki:
"Donald Love is a cannibal, as seen during the mission Cam Pain, where he eats human ribs and describes human flesh as being like chicken, but more sentient."
Bro that intro in 9:31 is so well done and fits nicely with the beating sound
Tony's voice acting is so good I remember it 10 years later
Personally, my favourite GTA. I loved that it was based on mafia's.
ive been waiting for this one. perfect way to end the night.
I played LCS so much as a kid that when I played the game again recently, I exactly know where to find body armor, weapons, and packages around the map, as well as knowing a lot of the cheats by heart.
Great video dude, I am very much looking forward to gta vice city stories, it has a special place in my heart, just like vice city.
At least there was a lot of Frank Vincent in here! He could not have been replaced by a voice actor in my opinion
Liberty City Stories was the first GTA i played.
I remember when i finally played GTA 3 i was disappointed to see that there isnt really any main missions on the last island Shoreside Vale other than the ending.
33:53 That type of erratic behavior and such a stark difference in character could imply that he's on drugs in LCS
Happy to see you have sponsors bro, keep going I love your retrospectives
"Easy to pick up, play for a bit, and then put down."
*Glares intensely at Armored Core PSP games.* I didn't own one of...any. No psp or AC games, but after getting into it last year before 6 was announced, I can say that you would definitely "pick up, play for a bit, and then put it DOWN."
Great video by the way! Keep up the amazing work!
I love LCS and VCS so much. Handheld consoles rule
I love LCS from the Bottom of my Heart❤so many Memories of this Game and it's going to be 18 Years old this Year.
This was the first Grand Theft Auto game I played my brother just plopped it one day in front of me and I just started playing and hearing that theme song for the first time I was hooked
The intro theme song for this game was perfect
Vincenzo is actually voiced by Joe Lo Truglio from Brooklyn Nine Nine
Your stuff keeps getting better and better. I really enjoy your long formatted, 'looking back' type videos. Btw, not a lot of people talk about LCS, so it's extra nice seeing you talk about it. Take care and keep grinding, my gamer.
This was my first GTA game, at the time i didn’t had a memory card and had to put the console on sleep mode and don’t let its battery die or the game would be reset to 0 haha
It's funny that the most psychotic protagonist is in the most underrated game
now you gotta do Vice city stories as well dude, the best game on my psp. Nice vid btw
Love your videos man! Keep it up!!!
I really love the details in this game and how it connects to 3. Same with Vice City and VCS.
I actually have this as my top 3 GTA behind SA and IV so I’m glad to see it getting it’s just due.
I never played LCS (though that's not saying much as I've not touched most of the 3D era games) but damn, the theme from this game slaps!
It's not too late to play the 3d era
Just ordered this game for the nostalgia, i used to play it when i was 6 years old
After waiting 15 days and finally getting it... It didn't get past the load screen and I had to send it back 😢
I bought it again off UK Amazon and now it works
@@yungmentalproblemsgreat to hear that. I used to love this game.
The music in this game was great. Some of them even available as in-game ringtones for GTA IV
My introduction to Play Station and GTA. This was one of the first games I played on the psp, Need for speed: Most Wanted was the first. I still remember dying multiple times trying to drive down Sal's drive with no use of the break button or easing off the accelerator so ended up in the water 😂 and even my brother and dad did the same when they had a go lmao. I have a lot of nostalgia for the game. My favourite parts are the goofy characters and dialogue including the pedestrian one liners lol
The 3D era GTAs were the best for me. I played and beaten every one of them. From GTA 3 to Vice City Stories. The newer GTAs look good and plays good but it feels like in terms of things to do, rockstar took a step back from what they did in SA. While GTA 4 had great story and characters, I find it hard to even finish it or play it for too long without getting bored. Not even the radio stations are interesting compared to the 3D eras except for integrity 2.0.
I remember playing this on PSP when it originally came out, had a good time. Vice City Stories was also great, and even better my favorite character comes back in it and is was voiced by the same person.
Love seeing you have a new video up!
This game was the game that introduced me to gta and i haven’t looked back then I found SA and it was game over after that 😭
this game was really fun whenever it ran higher than 10 frames per second
Great video, also i loooooved the Nuts little video at the start!
Great video; please VC stories as well
Idk why but I like it when games take random minor characters and make them fleshed out protags.
I've been waiting for this video for a number of days. Your retrospectives are the best I've seen on TH-cam 👏🏼 LCS is my 3rd favourite GTA. The story and the Toney's personality is what really made me play it over and over again. I played the mobile port which is by far the best port among other GTA mobile ports. They kept everything intact with improved textures. I recently downloaded the pc version with texture mods. Haven't played it yet but don't expect to see many differences. Overall this game really exceeded my expectations.
What LCS is on pc isn't it only on ps2 and PSP.
@@Peewushshsh not entirely. Someone in the modding community made a PC ported version named RE:LCS. Just check it out on TH-cam and then download it online.
@@NuclearAtomsthx i wish rockstar would make a pc port or ps5 port but you know rockstar they wouldn't want to do something good.
I played cap out of this game on psp back in the days
VC stories was maybe more advanced but this is one stick with me more
Unreal video man! Unfortunate that I’m seeing it 11 months later. Great game
Been looking forward to this one! Another great video man keep it up.
The game was solid in the PSP. Remember playing this for hours just goofing around like spawning a tank and just cause chaos until the tank blows. Still one of my favorites from the PSP days.
I bought LCS because i love Michael Madsen. Of course, to pinch pennies, Rockstar didn’t bring him back to reprise his role from GTA 3. That first mission i played sure was fun!
To be honest, I think Danny's voice is more fitting for Toni. Madsen's voice work on GTA3 is very... Amateurish?
@@GabryyLG Well since we’re being “honest” here, I don’t give a shit what you think, and I didn’t solicit your opinion. The only “amateur” here is your mom. Post your own comment in the main thread stating your dumb thoughts and piss off, bitch.
@@Adarkane325xi How old are you dude ? Learn to control your emotions and accept other people's opinions
@@maxim196 Aww, white-knighting for your boyfriend? What grade did you drop out of, bitch? I say what i want, to whomever i want, whenever i want. Piss off, beta.
That game should also be remastered along with vice city stories, especially when there’s many people who are wanting to try out.
My Favorite gta of all time.
Liberty city in the 3d verse i just so atmosperic and perfectly fitting for the fucked up shit that happens.
Dark, gritty and always raining.
And the story, music, charackters is so well done.
Excellent
A kick in the nostalgia nuts, thanks. Well put from start to finish!
The mom putting a hit on her son deal is an homage to a certain big mafia tv series.
The Sopranos.
The mom in the game is essentially an exaggerated version of Livia Soprano.
@@EJK2099 bingo
Haaaa! "Slash" TV!
Amazing reference to the old arcade game, SMASH TV, Especially considering that was the first thing I thought of seeing the camera angle and level layout. I bet this mission was made entirely with that in mind. XD
Yeah Smash TV was awesome and deranged.
Ps2 settings needed to smooth out framrate: allow 8-bit graphics. The game is essentially always trying to load the highest detailed LODs
I remember taking the reporters moped after killing him and it was indestructible. I played so much of this game back in the day
Love this!!! Subscribed!!!
I certainly was not expecting to see yakuza references in a gta video. glad to see another fan of the series
You mentioned "no big celebrity" voice actors. What about Frank Vincent, who was in Goodfellas, Casino and The Sopranos, voicing Sal Leone?
Man I loved this game. Also them having DJ Clue on game radio was awesome too.
I played the hell outta this game and vice city stories in high school.. I swear the 2000s was the shi
I recently played the PS2 version on PCSX2 at a smooth 60fps. Had to overclock the EE to 180% and get a patch for 60fps.
Loved the stories games back in the day played them on ps2, cant wait for a re-release
I'm late to this, but there are right analog stick mods for proper camera control and UI mods for HD textures when playing on PPSSPP for both this and Vice City Stories.
Right analog stick support was adapted from the Vita modding scene when using the Adrenaline PSP loader, supporting 2x res and fan created right analog stick support for certain titles.
Nicely done retrospective!
Earned yourself a sub. Great content
Speaking about PSP JRPGs, one of the my faves is Gladiator Begins but seriously, LCS has my fave radio station in the series, Radio del Mundo.
This game and vice city stories were both great introductory to gta 3 and Vice city’s storyline however I remember playing it on psp and I felt like the story was okay but it’s confusing on who’s the antagonist but as for the amount of content it has is pretty good for a handheld
Ah this one is very special to me cuz this was very first psp game I got for myself
Fantastic video keep it up
saving this for work tonight. stoked
If you want to emulate the PS2 version, PCSX2 has released a beta v1.7 build. Performance is really good on this version for San Andreas, LCS & VCS. Doesn't make much difference for LCS gameplay-wise, but VCS is definitely better on PS2 with the extra content. I personally deleted my PSP (PPSSPP) copies of LCS and VCS and got the PS2 versions instead
PSP emulator is a must have for GTA Chinatown wars ..such a unique underrated gta game
@@maxim196 Yeah, I kept it for CTW. Haven't play it yet, though
I think most of the budget problem came because almost all of it was meant to go to VCS
I still play through VCS about once a year and I’ve been thinking about getting this again. I really wish I could get into the older ones but I get bored after about an hour of GTA2
I was just thinking about when you'd drop this video lol
This game is WAY crazier than 3. I regret not looking into this one more.
Got a bug 56:04 where the cop kill salvatore at the start of the mission until I reset, it was funny the first time of the 20
That chainsaw mission in the boat was the worse!!!!!
funnily enough, this was the first GTA I played on my friend's PS2
No one puts hands on a made man's wife whatsoever. It is an actual death sentence by matter of the real life Cosa Nostra's policy. Maria's flirting would dangerous as hell, even if her husband wasn't the boss.
