Talk:Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories/Archive 1

message: Ok, the long facts list was getting messy with most facts being repeated at least once so i have now restructured the facts list into sub sections. When new facts are confirmed (as they probably will be every other day up to the release), just place it under the appropriate sub heading. This stops facts repeating themselves, removes conflicting information and makes it easy to read. Someone might want to go through my restructured list and check it for mistakes in fact or punctuation ~azzytyb
:I just wanna write, nice job! Very good restructering of the cluttered mess we used to have NSRegentPark 22:42, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

message: Is this truly necessary? For one, it's far ahead of our time and two, why discuss it now. Granted, it may or may not happen -- but since no one can confirm or deny this, I say we take it out and put it back in when we actually have a hint or two to base it on.

:Your suggestion is justifiable. Until Rockstar themselves confirms the release of San Andreas Stories, it's nothing more than rumors, which is not encyclopedic. ╫ ２５ ◀RingADing▶ 20:05, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: San Andreas Stories Rumour

message: "The woman next to the sports car is thought to be the wife of Alex Shrub from in page 4 of Vice City's game manual, since they strongly resemble each other.[1] It is also thought that one of the men on the boat is Colonel Juan García Cortez before he becomes rich, while the man on his right could be his right hand man before he lost his hair, Gonzales (who is killed in Vice City)."
Are such rumours realy neccery for wikipedia? I mean that we should stay to facts not just mention any rumours, or can anyone then confirm and link the source of thouse rumours?
:Actually, in my opinion, I strongly believe the woman next to the sports car truly is the wife of Alex Shrub. But the rumour about the Colonel -- completely remove that. My goodness.--My IP Addy's Listed
::I have to agree with last opion, somehow I also feel that this kind of activity doesn't fit with Cortez'es character, but that ofcourse does not justify to edit wikipedia. However I would surely like to see that picture where Colonel Cortez is supposedly portrayed. I think that this "romour" has as same much proof, that I have it not beeing true, meaning nohting. So I'd rather like the Cortez's part entirely taken out, if no source of evidence is shown. Or then link to picture to confrim the rumour.
Some of these rumours have strong evidence. I think that we can agree that Laura Shrub is next to the car, Also that Umberto Robina's face is shown, And the rumour about the Colonel and Gonzalez is also likely as we all know he  had a thing for boats, Not to mention the guy rumoured to be Gonzalez is an uncanny comparison. Ken Rosenberg is likely to be in as he set up in Vice in 1984 which is unlikely an  coincidence. And Phil Cassidy has been seen in the load times by a magazine on a playthrough. ---Greene01
Doesnt the sentance about the game not being ported to any other console, contradict what has been stated in the previous sentance?--88.105.237.226 21:24, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

message: What is your guys opinion on Victor reportedly being voiced by Ving Rhames. I added it to the rumours section although its more than likely true. I guess this means that heavy Colombian accent isn't carrying over. Thank god. It'll probably be explained in the game. Probably just talks like that for drug deal's as cover. If the cop's wear looking for a guy with a heavy Columbian accident Ving Rhames is the last person you'd suspect.--Greene01
:Ving Rhames is a good choice for a voice actor, considering Victor is a marine and all -- Ving would make a perfect voice now that I think about it. However, the only point I disagree with you on is the fact IMDb is a reliable source. Since people can post all the information they want at this stage, everything is speculative. If I can recall, they listed comedian, Dave Chappelle for a voice over in Metal Gear Solid 3. Like Wikipedia, IMDb is very open to the public. But, we'll see in the upcoming mag previews and trailers. NSRegentPark 01:03, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

message: I've played the game quite a bit, and there is no time where Victor or Lance live in the trailer park. Victor, upon getting kicked out of the army lives in Phil's old house in Vice Port, and later in a compound given to him by Marty's wife in Little Haiti. Lance arrives in the city some time later and checks into an expensive hotel Downtown. The only important thing about the trailer park is that this is where the player gets missions from Marty Jay Williams in the start of the game.

message: I notice someone keeps readding that thing once I delete it. For one, it's not this article's job to report glitches someone complained about on GameFAQs, and I don't see other game articles include glitch sections. San Andreas had some pretty nasty glitches, in my experience, but its article doesn't include them. I haven't seen the other person give reasons as to why the glitches subsection should be kept. Why not add cheat codes too? Oh right, because you don't come on to Wikipedia looking for cheats or glitch reports.--DethFromAbove 09:56, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

message: I've searched the discussions on VCS main and the music section and haven't seen anything mentioned about the V Rock stickers Couzin Ed and Lazlow talked about. As you probably know, they speak of a way you can get a free sticker to show what station you listen to and stuff. Lazlow gives the address you can send for them, and you can also find the address on a building north of your Bayshore safehouse. I just wanted to inform, if no one else has, that the giveaway is legit, as I sent for mine weeks ago and just got them in the mail toda. I know many have already got theirs probably months ago, but I thought something like this should be mentioned somewhere in one of the articles, or at least in the Trivia section. If you need pictures for proof, just tell me, as I'll post links to them if required. Navex 17:19, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
