Grand theft auto vice city

Is it lagy? Is it fun? I have a adsl connection. How many online players can play at the same time?

i think there is only one, when i tried it there werent that many servers (to be expected) and it crashed all the time, for every one not just me. and if you killed some one with a gun attatched to one of the helicopters that person is dead to you, they will respawn like normal and continue playing, but to you they are still dead. plus, it just wasnt as fun as i hoped it would be. just drive around and shoot eachother, yay.

Why does it suck...lets see....

1) Its just a buggy mod made by someone in their basement.
2) Servers crash constantly.

How many can play??? Don't know for sure, because its too buggy to even try and play.

If you want a good multiplayer game, get BF1942 or Call Of Duty or MOHAA.



Spec:
Intel P4 2.4B
MSI 645E Max-U Mobo
512MB DDR333
GF3 ti200 64MB
SB Live 5.1
WD 60GB (Storage)
Maxtor 6GB (System)
Maxtor 120GB
LG 24x24x32 CDR
WIN2K PRo SP4

I have bf 1942 and I like it alot. I also have COD but I hate the mp mode because there's no vehicles.

I never tries mohaa though. I read the review at videogames.com but it doesn't tell much on the mp mode. How many players can play at the same time in a server? And are there any vehicles??? Is it like COD???

The multiplayer "hack" really really really sucks. It's most likely a pet project of some nerd in a basement somewhere. It's very very very very very buggy and it crashes every couple of minutes.

The single player version of the game is so great though that it's definitely worth buying if that's what you're trying to figure out. The game is awesome.

This game was meant to be single player. No wonder that multiplayer mod may suck big time
