So finally , the follow up to probably the best computer game the world has seen so far (GTA's Vice City) is here. What made Vice City such an engaging, immersive gaming experience was not just the perfectly rendered Miami Beach's, babes, guns, cars and wild missions. In large part this was also down to the killer sound track of 80's classics from everyone from Michael Jackson, to Yes to Ozzy Osbourne.
as you probably know is set in the early 90's and this has given the music programmers one of the richest veins of rap and rock music to mine. Kicking off with the low slung aggression of RATM's "Killing In The Name Off" leads into 2pac's "I Don't Give A F@ck" sitting comfortably against James's Brown's "The Big Payback". Guy's "Groove Me", Cypress Hill's "How I could just Kill A Man" and the early house of Raze's "Break For Love" are but a glimpse of the gold awaiting you on the dual CD Set. As with Vice City there is a full box set of all the featured music TBA, so watch this space.
Rating: 5/5
