Well this was fun to type! So when a user sent me a PM suggesting a rewrite of Vice City, I was thinking about it, and since there were so many things I wanted to improve on the story just as much as San Andreas, I decided to say "Shit, why not?" and decided "I think VCS deserves one too." Vice City Stories, believe it or not, was actually the first GTA game I actually played. Before I found out about the game, I never really played GTA. I mean I have played the games before, but never played through the storylines. This was the first GTA game where I actually played through the storyline and the missions. I thought the storyline in this game was slightly better than the one in Vice City, and Vic was a pretty decent character who needed work. So I felt if I was going to rewrite Vice City, then Vice City Stories deserves a rewrite too, because there were so many things I felt it was missing, and some of the characters could've been much better written, and it deserves so much more support. I feel it's the most underrated GTA game, and I appreciate everyone for taking the time to read through the whole thing and seeing the changes I made for it as well.
