We may not have posted first on this one, but our post is the most extensive.

The first issues of the aforementioned GamePro magazine with a host of new information and of course the first screens spread over 9 pages. In the game you will be playing Victor Vance, though your brother Lance will also be playing a sizable role.

• The game is set in 1984 - that's two years before Vice City
• Victor is a 28 year-old US Marine (Presumably back from Vietnam)
• Players can now ride the waves with the inclusion of jet skis
• The animations are more realistic and are a ''step-up from previous titles in the series''
• A multiplayer feature similar to the PSP version of LCS is in the game
• VCS is ''much, much bigger than Vice City''
• Some landmarks seen in Vice City are missing or even half built in VCS
• Many of the buildings have been modified and moved.
• All new vehicles and weapons as you'd expect from another gta
• You can fly helicopters and planes are also expected
• Some radio stations from Vice City will of course make a return
• New weather effects that may include hurricanes
• You can swim in the game, so you won't be feeding the fishes every time you fall off a pontoon half a metre from salvation.
• Bikes handling is improved, admitidly LCS left much to be desired on that front
• No longer seamless exterior-to-interior gameplay as seen in LCS (There'll be a slight loading time)
• A new addition in Vice City is the ferris-wheel, unlike the one in SA, you can ride this one and look around in first person mode.
• Binoculars are in the game
• LCS is ''rookie first-gen PSP title compared to VCS''
• Draw distance is great and is said to be better than even Vice City on PS2
• Trip skips make a return (If you die or get busted a taxi will take you back to the location where you received the mission from)
• New animations which give both the lead characters and pedestrians a whole new degree of humanity
• Far richer color palette that brings sunsets to all new levels of beauty, and realism
• Increased density of pedestrians, cars and objects
• Reduction in clumping (where groups of the same model type appear together such as peds and cars)
• Far more interiors that its predecessors

Flaming Hermes
Signficance: Shows the new atmospheric system in VCS, looking more like Los Santos than VC weather in this picture particularly.

Riding the waves
Signficance: The introduction off Jet Skis means plenty more fun on the sea, and if you fall off you can swim back now.

Urban Skyline
Signficance: The buildings here appear much darker and affected by shadows than in VC, which had a very bland system for lighting models.

Taking a swim
Signficance: Nothing really.

Canary Countach (sorry Infernus)
Signficance: The Infernus here has looks dead on the Lambo Countach.

Cinematic Squallo
Signficance: If Jet Skis are a bit too close to the water for you, you can always use the Squallo reappearing from Vice City

View from above
Signficance: The water however doesn't look very much like the PS2 Vice City blue water.

Sunset Comet
The comet is back, and the lighting system seems to have improved somewhat in VCS as can be seen from the effect of the head lights.

Chunder Wheel
Signficance: If you're too scared to get on a ferris wheel in real life, you can use the one in VCS. Though why you'd want to I don't know.

Bad Taste
Signficance: Thus, Victor makes his appearance, but why oh why in such a coloured jacket.

Washington Beach
Signficance: A nice picture to illustrate draw distance, though sadly just cut short to see if Cortez's yacht is still there

Leaving Leaf Links
Signficance: Again interesting to see the draw distance.

Back on route
Signficance: The PCJ here looks much more like it's LCS counterpart, rather than the pride and joy of VC.
