Where the videogame drinks from is something that it not only does not hide, <strong>but it congratulates itself for doing so<\/strong>: it knows the era in which it is set and bets on it, something that suits it perfectly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is known that GTA 6 will not be set in the past of Vice City, but in the present. This will happen <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/gta-vi-is-all-we-know-rockstar\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">thanks to the adventure of Jason and Lucia<\/a><\/strong>, a policeman and a drug dealer respectively (and who are siblings).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed-Youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"GTA Vice City Opening Intro\" width=\"840\" height=\"630\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Ag6H1e1rXJ0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">References to movies<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you&#8217;re a bit of a movie buff, you&#8217;ll know that the Grand Theft Auto franchise <strong>takes a lot from cinema as a reference<\/strong> to create its worlds. In the specific case of GTA: Vice City, this is even more palpable from minute one thanks to its protagonist, <strong>Tommy Vercetti<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The mobster is a parody of <strong>Tony Montana<\/strong>, protagonist of the <strong>Scarface<\/strong> movie. In fact, Tommy&#8217;s voice is none other than that of <strong>Ray Liotta<\/strong>, an actor who made a huge leap in the movie business thanks to his role as <strong>Henry Hill <\/strong>in Scorsese&#8217;s Goodfellas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To all this we must add that the game is full of references to cinema. We are not talking about insignificant and empty winks, but missions of the main adventure, characters, etc., are taken from the big screen. And welcome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/2\/2023\/03\/gta-vice-city-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"GTA IA\" class=\"wp-image-275527\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Helicopter mission<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here more than one will be laughing, but if there&#8217;s one thing I remember from Vice City it&#8217;s <strong>the damn toy helicopter mission<\/strong>. Now that I&#8217;m replaying it I&#8217;ve suffered again with it. What a bad control and how weird it was designed, but how it has remained in our retina.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>This mission in GTA: Vice City is already a trademark<\/strong>. After all, we&#8217;re not talking about taking a big helicopter, but a tiny one to drop off the loads while dozens of characters try to beat you to death, mainly. How to forget it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/2\/2023\/03\/gta-vice-city-helicoptero-rc-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-277587\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The tricks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What would a Grand Theft Auto be without cheats? With Vice City we also had a complete list of combinations to boost our character or change the game completely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That we had no life? Then &#8220;<strong>ASPIRINE<\/strong>&#8221; was the solution. That we wanted ships flying? &#8220;<strong>AIRSHIP<\/strong>&#8221; for everyone. That you wanted the best weapons from the start? &#8220;<strong>NUTTERTOOLS <\/strong>was the solution.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"sc-card-program\">\r\n  <div class=\"sc-card-program__body\">\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row clearfix\">\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-logo\">\r\n        <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__img\" alt=\"Grand Theft Auto Vice City\" src=\"https:\/\/images.sftcdn.net\/images\/t_app-logo-xl,f_auto\/p\/c0cab602-96bf-11e6-8561-00163ec9f5fa\/4239595020\/grand-theft-auto-vice-city-logo.png\" width=\"100px\" height=\"100px\">\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-title\">\r\n        <span class=\"sc-card-program__title\">Grand Theft Auto Vice City<\/span>\r\n        <a class=\"sc-card-program__button sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/grand-theft-auto-vice-city.en.softonic.com\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">DOWNLOAD<\/a>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n      <div class=\"sc-card-program__col-rating\">\r\n        <svg class=\"rating-score__content\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" version=\"1.1\" x=\"0\" y=\"0\" viewbox=\"0 0 50 50\" enable-background=\"new 0 0 50 50\" xml:space=\"preserve\"><path class=\"rating-score__background rating-score--good\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><path class=\"rating-score__value rating-score__value--80\" fill=\"none\" stroke-width=\"6\" stroke-dashoffset=\"80\" stroke-miterlimit=\"10\" d=\"M40 40c8.3-8.3 8.3-21.7 0-30s-21.7-8.3-30 0 -8.3 21.7 0 30\"><\/path><text class=\"rating-score__number\" content=\"8\" text-anchor=\"middle\" transform=\"matrix(1 0 0 1 25 31.0837)\" data-auto=\"app-user-score\">8<\/text><\/svg>\r\n      <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <span class=\"sc-card-program__description\"><\/span>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"sc-card-program__row\">\r\n      <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"sc-card-program__bigpic\" src=\"\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\">\r\n    <\/div>\r\n    <a class=\"sc-card-program__link track-link sc-card-program-internal\" href=\"https:\/\/grand-theft-auto-vice-city.en.softonic.com\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><\/a>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Music and its history<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And we close with two key aspects. If Tommy is a copy of Montana, the story is nothing more than a compendium of what has been experienced in movies, series and books about the mafia in the 80s. Drugs, smuggling, border jumps and links with the cartels\u2026 <strong>The plot always goes along with it<\/strong>, something that is appreciated even today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To this we must add <strong>the game&#8217;s radio<\/strong>. All GTAs have been characterized by having very good music. And yes, we emphasize the &#8220;very&#8221;, since Rockstar Games knew what tunes to acquire to introduce in their radios. Life is a lentil, my friend. Don&#8217;t forget that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed-Youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"La vida es una lenteja o la tomas o la dejas |\" width=\"840\" height=\"630\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/gxTNGs7nhVM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We turn to Grand Thef Auto: Vice City to remember the adventure of Tommy Vercetti.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9091,"featured_media":217155,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","wpcf-pageviews":0},"categories":[1018],"tags":[],"usertag":[],"vertical":[],"content-category":[],"class_list":["post-217154","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-gaming"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/217154","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9091"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=217154"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/217154\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":321616,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/217154\/revisions\/321616"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/217155"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=217154"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=217154"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=217154"},{"taxonomy":"usertag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/usertag?post=217154"},{"taxonomy":"vertical","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/vertical?post=217154"},{"taxonomy":"content-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/content-category?post=217154"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
