	'''Grand Theft Auto: Vice City''' (also referred to as '''''GTA Vice City''', '''Vice City''' and '''~~GTAVC''~~'''), is the second game in the [[GTA III Era]]. ~~Although it~~ was released ~~after~~ [[Grand Theft Auto III]]~~, it was set 15 years earlier~~.		'''Grand Theft Auto: Vice City''' (also referred to as '''GTA Vice City''', '''Vice City''' and '''GTA VC'''), is the sixth game in the [[Grand Theft Auto]] series and the second game in both the [[GTA III Era]] and [[3D Universe]]. The game was directed by [[Navid Khonsari]], designed and developed by [[Rockstar North]] and published by [[Rockstar Games]]. The game was initially released on October 27, [[2002]] in the [[United States of America\|United States]] and [[Canada]]. By the end of 2002, the game had also been released in [[Europe]] and Oceania with a [[Personal Computer\|PC]] and [[Xbox]] release coming in [[2003]] and [[2004]]. The game is also now available on [[Apple iOS\|iOS devices]], [[Android]] devices and the [[PlayStation Network]]. GTA Vice City was also released as part of [[Grand Theft Auto: Double Pack]] for the [[Xbox]], along with [[Grand Theft Auto III]] through [[Rockstar Vienna]].

	~~GTA Vice City is set~~ in [[Vice City in GTA III Era\|Vice City]]~~, Florida ([[United States of America\|USA]])~~ in [[1986]]~~, and concerns the exploits of protagonist [[Tommy Vercetti]] as he rises to become Vice City's major criminal power~~. The game's events ~~follow on from~~ [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories~~]].~~		The game revolves around the exploits of [[protagonist]] [[Tommy Vercetti]] after his arrival in [[Vice City in GTA III Era\|Vice City]] in [[1986]]. The game is set two years after the events of [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories]], six years before [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]], twelve years before [[Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories]], fourteen years before [[Grand Theft Auto Advance]] and fifteen years before GTA III.

	~~Designed by [[Rockstar North]] and published by [[Rockstar Games~~]], ~~it debuted in~~ [[~~North America~~]] ~~on October 27~~, [[~~2002]] for [[PlayStation 2]] and quickly became the best-selling video game of the year. GTA Vice~~ City ~~also appeared on the [[Japan]]ese magazine Famitsu's readers' list of 100 all-time favorite video games in 2006. Following this success, GTA Vice City saw releases in [[Europe~~]], [[~~Australia~~]] and ~~Japan, and became available on [[Personal Computer\|PC]] and [[Xbox]]. Later, [[Rockstar Vienna]] packaged the game with its predecessor,~~ GTA III~~, and sold it as the [[Grand Theft Auto: Double Pack]] for Xbox~~.

	It uses a tweaked version of the [[Renderware]] game engine used by GTA III, and similarly presents a huge cityscape, fully populated with buildings (from hotels to skyscrapers), vehicles (cars, motorcycles, boats, helicopters, and planes) and people. It also introduces over-the-top-gameplay that was later included in the games [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]], [[The Ballad of Gay Tony]], and [[Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars]].
