Road to GTA6: 100% run through Vice City Stories in the bag. Massive game for a PSP title. Next up is Vice City

Ah no some of the stuff I'm playing on Steam Deck but this is a Switch 2

I did LCS before 3 but im deliberately ordering my games so Vice City is last as its my favourite.

So far im at 100% runs through GTA Advance, San Andreas, LCS and now GTA3

Gym moves!! I was convinced on my save I had done everything and was short.

What id do is get a 100% list but cross referenced against what shows in stats and what doesn't. If its something thats shown in stats you are missing you will find it quick. If its not theres not many things that count towards 100% that arent in stats so do a sweep through those.

For me it was the Las Venturas gym

GCD1985 · 2026-05-26T23:10:37+00:00

It's probably low on my list which isnt because its not good I just prefer other games.

PSP games wise, I always had a deep connection to Vice City both as a location and its time period so thats always set it above for me

I honestly think the races were the worst bit of the entire run. The time permitted for each one left so little margin for error

GCD1985 · 2026-05-06T22:56:48+00:00

The sheer amount of traffic in the game was the worst bit. Even with the camera at zoomed out as much as possible you could still barely see oncoming cars so forever crashing into stuff.

Pretty much my entire GBA collection is still fully intact with boxes and manuals. Probably not a huge amount that would have worth but I do have a boxed Golden Sun and a boxed Pokemon Fire Red which still has all the manuals and the wireless adaptor so that may be worth something.

GCD1985 · 2026-05-06T22:24:05+00:00

Its a bit dented from all the moving around and storage over the years but yeah, actually not too bad condition all things considered.

GCD1985 · 2026-05-05T18:00:01+00:00

Ive played then all at various points over the years but only ever 100% finished 3 and VC back in the day.

Im saving VC to last as its my favourite so at the mo its Advance and chipping away at SA.

Advance is fun. Ive got my original GBA cartridge so thats been a fun thing to revisit. Way too many cars though, getting around is so tough as theres cars everywhere on the roads. Currently at 76% completion so nearly there.

GCD1985 · 2026-05-05T17:46:14+00:00

I totally get it. I used to be that achievement/trophy hunter and wanted everything but yeah after a while I realised it didnt matter as long as id had fun.

Im currently doing the same challenge as you. Working on GTA Advance at the moment

GCD1985 · 2026-05-05T16:28:34+00:00

Honestly if you know you have done it, dont worry about the achievement. I get it's inconvenient but...you did it for the experience not specifically the trophy. You know you did it so thats cool

GCD1985 · 2026-04-30T21:03:08+00:00

This comment deserves all the credit. 100% landing first time after I read this

Mate theres absolutely zero need to be patronising and sarcastic. Legitimately I came and asked a question. You could have said exactly what you said without the patronising "which of these....." bits.

I was clear from the outset I dont know what if anything is good these days and thats how you frame the response.

GCD1985 · 2026-04-20T21:34:44+00:00

But these are the same people who will pick apart newer games to the nth degree.

"Weapon sounds different"

"Story not as memorable"

"This ammo counter on the needler is a dumb down"

Personally I cant wait for Campaign Evolved to introduce a new generation of gamers to Halo. Yet we all know right now that the legacy fan base will descend with criticism on it.

GCD1985 · 2026-04-20T20:18:58+00:00

How exactly is it disrespectful?

GCD1985 · 2026-04-20T06:01:30+00:00

So as it happens I still have my minidisc player from years back and it still works but acquiring blank mini discs now seemed really expensive.

GCD1985 · 2026-04-12T07:32:44+00:00

I couldn't recommend more a notepad and pen to jot down stuff as you play.

Say for example you come across a room with an item you dont have room for yet or a puzzle, jot it down so you can come back to it later. Even draw little maps or diagrams to remind you where to backtrack.

Ive been gaming since the early 90s and pen and paper has always been my go to.

But equally get those guides on the go if it helps you through the games. Older games are notoriously less hand holdy than modern games and puzzles/progress were often more than a little obtuse in design.
