Born in 2001, Vice City was the first game I ever saw in my life, when I saw my father playing a game in the home computer about this man in a hawaian shirt killing cops in a city when I was like 3 years old lmao. Didn't even knew it was Vice City until years after that. And I didn't played it until this year in January 2024, 22 years later, and 20 years after I saw it for the first time. Damn, what a great game it is even after so many years.

[@nehiyr8520]

I didn't know the song until about 2 days ago... And felt in love with "Act like you know" right away! The rythm and especially the vocals, truly great signer. I really am not an amateur of the genre but really, this already is a masterpiece to me so thanks to him for having sung on this song, and to you for letting us know about your feelings. I do hope this brings some more warmth to you Wanda :)
