Missions are easy to follow, don't require too much jumping (jumping never works well with these games), and don't veer too far from the overall story.Īs far as the story goes, it's a bit hokey, but no more hokey than its Vice City counterpart.

Nothing that Gangstar: Miami Vindication has to offer will blow you away in the originality department, but it is all done well. The missions span from the typical 'steal this car, kill this guy missions' to races, tailing cars, and taking pictures for surveillance. The game itself follows the same formula that GTA mastered so well many years ago: go to base, watch a little cut-scene, get task, complete task, head to base for another task. Sure, you'll still waste some time, but I'd say that 90% of my play time was dedicated to the actual game. Miami Vindication lets you voluntarilly cut out most of the side business (killing random pedestrians, running from cops, jumping cars) and lets you focus more on the game at hand. As much as I like walking aimlessly around beautifully crafted cities, I'd rather play a game in the process. All to often in GTA I feel like I am running around doing nothing. What I like most about Gameloft's interpretation of the GTA system is that they seem to give the game more focus. Regardless of my thought on the matter, Gangstar: Miami Vindication is a well-crafted GTA clone that will please even the most deep rooted doubters. Maybe I'm wrong in thinking that innovation is the key to success, but it seems that Gameloft is really missing their opportunity to break off from their GTA clone status and really try to take the lead in the genre. I still don't know why Gangstar couldn't have been set in New York or Houston or London, or any city besides Miami.

I thought that it would be more of Gameloft trying to outdo someone else at their own game (in this case, with Grand Theft Auto: Vice City), and that, in the end, it would be a fairly drab affair.

I was admittedly apprehensive going in to review Gangstar: Miami Vindication.
