Vice City FM
Vice City FM is an exclusive radio station to Grand Theft Auto: Episodes From Liberty City. Named after Vice City, "VCFM" plays 1980s' pop and rock, and is hosted by Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories and Grand Theft Auto: Vice City radio DJ, Fernando Martinez. For some reason, in Episodes from Liberty City, Vice City FM replaces The Vibe 98.8 (especially because of its high number of songs and love being the main theme) in GTA IV.
