Ever since the releases of San Andreas for PSN and Vice City for iOS and Android, we've received more than a few requests from the community wondering when they'd be able to touch down at Escobar International and return to the neon-lit streets and sun-splashed shores of Ocean Beach on their PS3s. Today, we can confirm that it won't be long now...

The original Grand Theft Auto: Vice City will arrive for download on PlayStation Network next week as part of their PS2 Classics collection - on Tuesday, January 29th in North America and Wednesday January 30th in Europe, for $9.99 / €9.99 / £7.99.

Stay tuned for more classic Rockstar titles coming for download to PSN in the weeks and months ahead.

Since you might know, I posted this in the GTA general thread about two days ago

Hopefully I can pick this up and play it, have not played GTA: V.C in awhile

Didn't see it before. But I decided to post it here since it's related to PSN.

Probably grab this to get ready for the new GTA.

Good that it'll be $10 and not $15, hopefully the black label version too but not much was cut in future VC releases so doesn't matter much.

Blacksite no problem, did not want people coming and saying that its already posted. I rather tell you I posted it

But since it is PSN related, I understand

It'll likely be the re-released version (back in December) where they removed 10 songs from the game's soundtrack.

Thought all that was sorted and the songs were staying in. I heard problems with The MJ songs and that was deemed sorted out

But others, strange

It was originally pulled due to MJ's "Wanna Be Starting Something" but they ended up removing nine other songs with it.

Well that sucks, so the full experience of driving around listening to tunes you love. Might actually be a bummer of an experience

I'm sort of pissed off at these releases. I would much rather have a HD collection of all 3. I already own the PS2 versions.

Likewise, but my V.C version is a bit broke at the moment

And I thought I would get this, but since songs have been pulled. I am not now and a GTA III ERA collection would be better

Still it's good news.

Yep for them, that never ever played any of the GTA 3 era games

I doubt they've removed all those songs, it'd be much easier to just upload the original PS2 release. They worked it out with the song that held up GTA3 and that song never made it into any version but the original black label PS2 version, so if they managed that they should manage this.

Sony Music at least should just let it slide for the PSN release.

Not all the songs, but 9 songs and that still sucks

I don't think I'll bother with this, if it was a HD remake then i probably would but with this I could just hook up my old PS2 and play it

it will download like crazy by many and why not... But we are all crying for a GTA III ERA HD collection

Vice City on PSN? Hell yes.

Agreed. No HD remake no buy.

I see there's no HD remake but surely they'll improve the graphics to GTA 4 standard or something because hardly anyone buys games with crap graphics now its an important element especially for us geeks.

Try reading the article.

I still doubt they will, that requires editing the game which voids it being a PS2 classic.

You couldn't be more wrong.

true, but it has been proven they actually have taken out 9 songs... Their still got enough songs to enjoy... But any songs left out, just makes it less entertaining to play

Where's this proof other than the Steam version?

Claud always talks about proofs without giving any sources or references...
