Eight-Ten VCN (real name Vice City News) is a news station located in Downtown, Vice City in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City and Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories. The doorway at ground floor leads directly to the rooftop. In GTA Vice City, a VCN Maverick and a hidden package can be found on the rooftop helipad.

There is an unused radio station logo, and a radar icon leftover in the game files.

Easter Egg

There is an Easter Egg secret room in an adjacent building next to the helipad on the roof of the VCN building. If the player jumps off the helipad into the building next to it, they would go through the wall and land in the room.

In GTA Vice City, inside the room is an large chocolate egg on a podium with the words "Happy Easter" on it.
In GTA Vice City Stories on the PlayStation 2, the easter egg is seen as being under construction. However, the room is blocked by a solid wall and is inaccessible on the PlayStation Portable version.

-__TOC__
+== Easter Egg ==
-==Description==
+There is an [[Easter Egg]] secret room in an adjacent building next to the helipad on the roof of the [[Vice City News|VCN]] building. If the player jumps off the helipad into the building next to it, they would go through the wall and land in the room.
-Similar in design to the [[:wp:Bell 412|Bell 412]], the Armadillo is a relatively large helicopter that nevertheless possesses relatively good speed, with moderately steep pitches that help increase its acceleration at the expense of losing altitude faster.
-The fire department version has a bucket attached by a rope, which is used to carry water from the sea to the fires. Entering a FDVC Armadillo starts a [[Fire Copter]] side mission, where the player has to get sea water and use it to take out fires on rooftops. The player can avoid activating the side mission and water bucket upon entry into the helicopter by pushing it away from its spawn point using a heavy road vehicle or even the player character itself (by sprinting against the helicopter).
+* In GTA Vice City, inside the room is an large chocolate egg on a podium with the words "Happy Easter" on it.
+* In GTA Vice City Stories on the [[PlayStation 2]], the easter egg is seen as being under construction. However, the room is blocked by a solid wall and is inaccessible on the [[PlayStation Portable]] version.
-Since the [[VCN Maverick]] was cut from GTA Vice City Stories, [[Reni Wassulmaier]] uses the Armadillo in one of his missions as a news helicopter, hovering over the player.
