GTA Vice City  22 Years On!

October 29th 2024

When Grand Theft Auto: Vice City dropped in 2002, it was like a portal into the neon-lit, crime-riddled heart of the 80s. This game wasn’t just about causing chaos (although, let’s be honest, that was half the fun); it was a journey into a world that felt brimming with style, atmosphere, and, most importantly, unforgettable characters.

At the centre of it all was Tommy Vercetti, and his iconic Hawaiian shirt voiced by the iconic Ray Liotta. Tommy wasn’t your typical silent protagonist; he was brash, calculating, and dangerously charming a man on a mission to carve out his empire in Vice City’s seedy underbelly. Characters like Tommy gave Vice City its grit, and his rise from a low-level criminal to the king of a sprawling empire remains a highlight in the entire GTA series. His voice lines alone made an impression, bringing a depth and personality that made every mission feel like part of a gritty 80s crime saga.

Yes I am aware that I used the word “iconic” twice it’s cause it is ICONIC!

But it wasn’t just Tommy who made the city feel alive. Vice City’s underworld was packed with memorable faces from Lance Vance, Tommy’s partner in crime with a flair for the dramatic, to Kent Paul, the British music manager with questionable connections. Even minor characters, like Ricardo Diaz, a volatile drug lord, added layers to the city’s story and made each mission an unpredictable thrill.

Beyond the characters, Vice City was the perfect blend of neon-soaked 80s style and open-world freedom. The vapourware colours, palm trees, and retro cars all worked in sync to create an experience that felt immersive and timeless. Add in that unforgettable soundtrack with tracks from Michael Jackson to Laura Branigan, and you had an atmosphere that’s still tough to beat.

As we gear up for GTA VI next year, there’s a sense of anticipation for what Rockstar will bring back from Vice City’s legacy. Will we see nods to characters like Tommy, Lance, or Kent? Will the game revisit that unforgettable neon style? Only time will tell, but Vice City remains the high bar thanks to the vivid world, unforgettable characters, and that immersive 80s spirit.

Until we get the next instalment, Vice City stands unchallenged as the epitome of cool, daring, and everything that makes a game memorable.

🎄💾🗓️ Day 18: Retrocomputing Advent Calendar - Commodore 64🎄💾🗓️

The Commodore 64, released in 1982, is one of the ones we keep hearing got many people their start in their own computing history. Powered by a MOS Technology 6510 processor at 1.02 MHz and featuring 64 KB of RAM, it became the best-selling single computer model of all time, with an estimated 12.5–17 million units sold. Its graphics were driven by the VIC-II chip, capable of 16 colors, hardware sprites, and smooth scrolling, while the SID (Sound Interface Device) chip delivered advanced audio, supporting three voices with waveforms and filters, making it a lot of fun for gaming and music.

Featured a built-in BASIC interpreter, allowing users to write their own programs out-of-the-box. The C64’s affordability, large software library, lots of games, productivity, and educational applications made it a household name. It connected to TVs as monitors and supported peripherals like the 1541 floppy disk drive, datasette, and various joysticks. With over 10,000 commercial software titles and a thriving homebrew scene, the C64 helped define a generation of computer enthusiasts.

Its impact on gaming was gigantic, iconic titles like The Last Ninja, Maniac Mansion, and Impossible Mission. The C64 also inspired a demoscene, where programmers pushed its hardware for visual and audio effects. The Commodore 64 remains a symbol of computing for the masses and creative innovation, still loved by retrocomputing fans today.

And…! An excellent story from Jepler -

== While I started on the VIC 20, the Commodore 64 was my computer for a lot longer. Its SID sound chip was a headline feature, and many of my memories of it center around music. Starting with Ultima III, each game in the series had a different soundtrack for each environment (though each one was on a pretty short loop, it probably drove my folks nuts when I would play for hours). There were music editors floating around, so I tried my hand at arranging music for its 3 independent voices, though I can't say I was any good or that I have any of the music now. You could also download "SID tunes" on the local BBSes, where people with hopefully a bit more skill had arranged everything from classical to Beatles to 80s music.

Folks are still creating cool new music on the Commodore 64. One current creator that I like a great deal is Linus Åkesson. Two videos from 2024 using the Commodore 64 that really impressed me were were a "Making 8-bit Music From Scratch at the Commodore 64 BASIC Prompt", a live coding session (http://www.linusakesson.net/programming/music-from-scratch/index.php) and Bach Forever (http://www.linusakesson.net/scene/bach-forever/index.php) a piece played by Åkesson on two Commodore 64s.

Like so many things, you can also recreate the experience online. Here's the overworld music for Ultima III: https://deepsid.chordian.net/?file=/MUSICIANS/A/Arnold_Kenneth/Ultima_III-Exodus.sid&subtune=1 -- the site has hundreds or thousands of other SIDs available to play right in the browser.
