About this listen


🛺 Welcome to Funky Pearls, where we explore the cultural impact of video games.


Today, we’re delving into the rise of Tommy Vercetti and the lasting legacy of Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, a game that revolutionized the industry.


Released in 2002, Vice City transported players to a vibrant, neon-soaked world inspired by Miami.


As Tommy Vercetti, you climb the criminal ladder, building an empire in a story filled with action, betrayal, and ambition.


The game’s open world offered unprecedented freedom, allowing players to explore, complete missions, and engage in a variety of activities.


Its richly detailed environment, coupled with a memorable 80s soundtrack, set a new standard for immersive gameplay.


While lauded for its gameplay, Vice City also sparked controversy due to its depiction of violence and crime.


Despite this, it became one of the best-selling games of its era, influencing countless titles that followed.


Tommy Vercetti’s journey in Vice City remains a landmark in gaming history.


Join us next time on Funky Pearls as we continue to explore the stories behind the games that shaped our culture.
