If you're one of those people (me) who love Vice City above San Andreas (me) purely for the ability to cruise around and listen to the best 80s music (me), then you're probably looking forward to the upcoming PC mod for Grand Theft Auto IV that recreates the entirety of Vice City in GTA IV's RAGE engine.
