Not only is this the greatest game on PSP, it also leaves a large percentage of the PS2 back catalogue looking ordinary. But it right now. [Dec 2006, p.76]

An entertaining digital playground/action-adventure. Do whatever you want, whenever you want, as long as it is something criminal. [Jan 2007]

Hikaye ve Atnosfer olarak en iyi GTA oyunu, **** bitirdim ve sonun nasıl geldiğini anlamadım görevlerin çeşitliliği açık dünya elementleri beni benden aldı umarım birgün düzgün bir PC Portu çıkar. Tek 10 verdiğim GTA oyunu. The best GTA game in terms of story and atmosphere. I've finished it 16 times and I didn't understand how it ended. The variety of missions and open-world elements blew me away. I hope a proper PC port comes out someday.

Vice City Stories is an amazing game, and one I would wholeheartedly recommend, (a lot of work has gone into it, despite the fact that the city has undergone few changes from the original) but I hope that for the upcoming (if you can wait a year) "GTA IV" we see enough of a change to refresh the genre and franchise, because the games are great, but starting to seem quite samey.

The whole of what's here still stuns in the uncompromising GTA way, putting it--with sister game "Liberty City Stories"--leagues above anything else on the PSP. [Jan. 2007, p.108]

The A.V. Club
A playground of totally '80s excess worth revisiting, especially with such ballsy satirists at the cigarette boat's helm.

While this particular GTA game wouldn't inspire me to sit in my bedroom at night trying to make animated squish graphics to put on the top of my website, it's still happily one of the best games on the PSP, and well worth looking into if you still haven't hit your GTA ceiling.

Times Online
The pressure of following in the footsteps of one of the console’s greatest successes seems to have removed any sense of humour from the game.

GTA: Vice City Stories — 9.7/10 A fantastic prequel that expands the Vice City experience with a compelling story and improved mechanics. Playing as Victor Vance, the game explores ambition and loyalty in a vibrant 80s setting. The empire-building system adds depth, giving players more control over the city. Combined with a great soundtrack and engaging missions, it stands as one of the best handheld entries in the GTA series.

Es un muy buen gta, mejor de lo que pensaba, me gustaron mucho los personajes, la historia esta bien, las misiones son variadas y tiene muchas mecanicas divertidas que otros gta no tienen, la radio no me gusto mucho, la ciudad esta meh y en ciertos momentos no se encuentra ningun vehiculo en la calle, mal ahi.Esta bien como gta y para ser un juego de la psp, la pase bien a diferencia del gta 3.

Es un arreglo del Liberty City Stories ya que trae contenido del Vice City y del San Andreas Ahora se preguntaran ¿porque un 7? pues hay algunas misiones que son dificiles

Lo provato tramite l'emulatore e molto difficile da mirare anche usando un controller comandi fatti male veramente era meglio se lo facevano anche per il PC almeno li usciva meglio.
