[RP912]

Summer Madness always gets me like...

 

[pantsattack]

"When I was a young boy..." Amazing thread.

 

[TheYanger]

Summer Madness always gets me like...

I always listened to Fever (once I'd had my fill of the talk radio, always my first GTA priority) and any time Summer Madness was on I'd go into a fucking trance just cruising down Vice City. It's the perfect mood song for that game.

 

[GotchaForce]

GOAT licensed soundtrack. My final save I had it to where it would be raining at night and I'd get on my bike while "I Ran" came on.

 

[pantsattack]

Crockett's Theme is my Vice City theme. I'd never end it of my own volition, but I think it only plays for two minutes before fading out.

 

[xzeldax3]

This thread has so much good music that it crashed my phone!!!

 

[Chalupa Batman]

Yeah, it's the GOAT, for sure. Best selection of overall quality, best mix of genres, and best-fitting music for any game ever made. The only thing it's missing is the best theme music, which belongs to San Andreas.

 

[Leyasu]

The fucking GOAT. I did grow up in the 80s...

"spreading lovefist goo all around" Classic lol

 

[Cess007]

Almost every single memory of me and this game, involves "Billy Jean", "Come on Feel the Noize" and/or "2 Minutes to Midnight" at one point or another (Edit. and "Too Young to Fall in Love", dammit! i want to play the game again!)

Great memories :')

Edit. Here's another live version of Motley Crue - Too Young to Fall in Love

 

[Ostinatto]

I forgot to add, the Vice City theme Cover.

 

[TheYanger]

Yeah, it's the GOAT, for sure. Best selection of overall quality, best mix of genres, and best-fitting music for any game ever made. The only thing it's missing is the best theme music, which belongs to San Andreas.

There is ZERO chance that

I listen to the Vice City theme regularly because it's so fucking awesome.

 

[Tamanator]

Bravo, you are an absolute legend Ostinatto.

Turn up that radio!

 

[Komo]

Vice City's soundtrack is certainly one of the best in any video game!

Even now in 2015 I'm still finding myself opening up to more of it. I've recently found an appreciation for Wildstyle's electro-hiphop, and I can't get enough of it

 

[kitschbeam]

The best.

 

[illmatic22]

San Andreas is better

Come at me

 

[Komo]

San Andreas is better

Come at me

I think GTA 3's OST is better than any GTA OST to date. come at me

Spoiler

GTA 3 > San Andreas > Vice City > GTA 2 > LCS > GTA IV > GTA V > VCS

 

[Boogie9IGN]

Tito Puente videos always crack me up

Tooooooooooons of memories from this game and each and every one has to do with the soundtrack coming in at some perfect moment. Thanks OP

 

[Ogimachi]

The best indeed. Thanks, OP, I'm on to V-Rock.

 

[NinjamicWZ]

Awesome OP idea. All the props to you.

I prefer 90's hip-hop, so I'm biased to to San Andreas. Would love to see a similar thread for it, but I think prog heads have more love and dedication

 

[dreamfall]

OP, this was an amazing post & collection of links. I'm in total agreement with you, I think Vice City will always be my favorite GTA game- mainly because of how great the soundtrack was. The glitz, the glam, and Laura Branigan. Flash FM will always be my favorite! Thank you for this.

 

[MrTroubleMaker]

That was cool!

 

[fedexpeon]

Probably one of the best thread ever on gaf.

 

[antitrop]

This thread kicks ass.

 

[antonz]

Soundtrack was perfect. Vice City nailed the era so perfectly. Really wish they would go back to it.

 

[Eos]

san andreas and V had better stations

 

[Sotha Sil]

Nailed it.

 

[jroc74]

I dont know....

I do agree Vice City has the best soundtrack of all the GTA games, and just vs. other games period.

But I like that San Andreas theme music more than Vice City's.

 

[Timu]

And this is why it's one of the best GTA games.=p

 

[antitrop]

san andreas and V had better stations

Lazlow hosting V-Rock was a nice callback reference to a rather throwaway line from GTA III, but his Chatterbox bits were very much missed.

 

[entremet]

Just shows how the 80s is the GOAT decade.

 

[Megasoum]

I remember ripping the mp3 out of my modded Xbox version. I still have FLASHFM and VRock on my phone. It's like a one hour long mp3 for each stations with the DJ and ads and all that.

 

[Piccoro]

Yeah I'm bookmarking this thread.
Great job, Ostinatto!

 

[RP912]

San Andreas is better

Come at me

Fair point.

Dat New Jack Swing breh

 

[Pics_nao]

Why the fuck is Japanese Boy on the Wave soundtrack but not Flash? The fuck?

 

[canedaddy]

iRADIO ESPANTOSO!

 

[Anth0ny]

GOAT licensed soundtrack.

please go back to the 80s with GTA

plsssssssssssssss

 

[mango_ash]

Altough I've never really played VC (im ashamed yes) I'm having a lot of fun clicking on these links. Thanks bro!! Let us know if you ever decide to make a SA version

 

[Nokterian]

One of my favorite soundtracks of a game. A shame i never bought the cd version years ago when i saw it in store.

 

[The Albatross]

Awesome thread and great link to that Vice City cover.

Which reminds me the song Welcome to Los Santos for GTAV is equally amazing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KzKvPrIPVbE
ANd the GTA:SA theme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W4VTq0sa9yg
But the VC theme brings me right back to that first trailer/intro: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5p1vacn3KcE

 

[Warxard]

I haven't had the will to try and fight...

 

[Necron]

This is the thread I've been waiting for...

Probably the best licensed soundtrack ever created for a video game.
We definitely need to return to Vice City.

Subscribed!

 

[Ostinatto]

iRADIO ESPANTOSO!

Too bad there's only a few live performances for this one.

 

[ODDI]

Damn what a nice thread tho I prefer GTA SA soundtrack but Vice City is pretty damn solid.

 

[Steez]

As a hip hop head I gotta admit, Vice City has the GOAT GTA soundtrack. Fever 105 has all my jams.

 

[Olly88]

The best. Absolutely love it.

V-Rock used to be my favourite, but I think these days that honour has to go to Wave 103 and Flash.

 

[KoyukiNL]

The intro song is perfect.

 

[LeoDiBlack]

I haven't had the will to try and fight...

Another night, another day goes by...
I never stop myself to wonder why (&#9835

 

[Blueingreen]

Greatest soundtrack to any game ever lisenced or original, I would love for a Vice City remake, but without the shitty physics Rockstar has used in their games post GTA 4.
