4. More than 10 radio stations.

9. Tommy speaks... voiced by actor Ray Liotta.
10. Vice City is 2 - 2 1/2x as big as Liberty City.
11. No unlocking parts of the city... everything is open to you from the beginning.
12. There is interior design... you can go inside over 50 buildings, including a bank, a shopping mall (awesome), a coffee house, a nightclub and an airport jammed with ticket counters and customers.
13. Some or many missions are indoors.
14. Peds include: joggers, roller-skaters, people enjoying beach, sun, etc...
15. Peds will jump out of the ways of cars, cross streets, and walk in tandem.
16. Gangs will beat down random passerby, steal cars, get in chases with the police.
17. Police chase others for wrong-doings as well.
18. Vice is vibrant, bright, beautiful, not at all like Liberty.
19. Higher resolution.
20. Faster frame-rate.
21. Neon lights glow as well in the city.
22. No more boxy figures, smooth character models are in Vice.
23. Tommy is taller and much more proportionate than our beloved GTA3 Guy. (this means he won't have those stubby little legs like the GTA3 Guy...)
24. Characters are fully skinned.
25. Greatly enhanced targeting system.
26. Targeting system targets victims based on priority not proximity... meaning the most dangerous guys will be targeted, not the most closest.

28. 40 new weapons, 15 from GTA3.
29. New "crouching" maneuver.
30. Camera view will lock-on as "over-the-shoulder" in targeting mode.

39. Clothing ripples in the wind.
40. Reflective surfaces and real-time shadowing are greatly improved.
41. A new addition: the ability to shoot out tires, which affects handling physics. But wait-- police do this too...
42. Boats play a greater role.
43. Jet-skis and cigarette boats are possible.
44. Game's water physics and handling are completely revamped.
45. Vice city will appear as a totally new game and NOT as an add-on as previously reported.
46. It will feature a new game engine.
47. Bigger, badder and uncut as explained by Sam Houser: "It's an even more revolutionary gaming experience. This will be reflected in the size of the game, the scope of the gameplay and the extent of the gameplayer's freedom."

56. Spikestrips are available to police.
