The latest issue of PSM magazine is out in the United States of Americaland, it includes a preview of Vice City Stories and is actually the first US magazine to even get a preview of the game. The following details have emerged.

  • The Cure are one of the artists the magazine heard on the radio, expect songs from them in the game.
  • You'll be able to see "considerably farther into the distance" than in Liberty City Stories thanks to the improved draw distance.
  • The magazine's writer got to play four missions, lasting on average 10-15 minutes. This is a substantial improvement over Liberty City Stories' mere 5 minute average.
  • Custom Soundtracks will return - Using the Rockstar Custom Tracks application you can add your own music to the game.

Alongside this are two new screenshots:

Our friends at GTAUnderground have also posted a couple of new artworks that were featured in the magazine, one of the jet ski in action, the other portraying the Vance brothers.

Vance Brothers don't look like they usually do. Vic has hair and Lance looks older than in Vice City. Knew about most of the info they said but nice post.

I wonder if that style of jet ski will be in the game?

It certainly wouldn't be as hard to ride as it is in real life. :D

Maybe its sort of like the motorcycle controls. Like when you hold up he'll stand up on the bike, but I don't think you'll be able to do stoppie or regular wheelies. :lol:
