Mixolydian Posted February 17, 2007 Share Posted February 17, 2007 On eBay there are some Vice City listings that say "enhanced edition." Is there really an enhanced edition, or is that code for "hacked" or "counterfeit" edition?

Mister Zero Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 Doesn't sound genuine to me. The only thing remotely similar to this I've heard of is the Platinum Versions of games which are released to fix bugs and/or when a game exceeds sale expectations.

omega_c Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 Here's a copy of the message I just sent them: Hi!Since you're a powerseller and have a huge amount of feedback, I'm relatively sure that this isn't a scam, but I do have one question. In the item description, I noticed this: - Enhanced edition of Grand Theft Auto Vice City featuring improved graphics, audio, control, and customization options What do you mean by "Enhanced"? As far as I know, there is no upgraded version of Vice City, besides a few new releases that fixed missions glitches, etc. Thanks! I'll edit this post/reply with a copy of their response, if any.

TonyZimmzy Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 Sounds like it's been modded Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/267530-enhanced-edition/#findComment-4056980 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inky Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 Couldn't enhanced mean, well, enhanced? Remember how the games looked when they first came out on PS2. Crapish eh. Then remember the XBOX + PC versions. Upp'd polys, better textures, better lighting etc. Maybe that's all they meant?

Then remember the XBOX + PC versions. Upp'd polys, better textures, better lighting etc. Maybe that's all they meant? I think that is what is implied-- Its not in the listing title-- it is slightly misleading-- fairly typical of ebay-- I don't think its a cracked version Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/267530-enhanced-edition/#findComment-4057704 Share on other sites More sharing options...
omega_c Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 I still haven't gotten a response back, so here's my take on it: Someone wants to get a leg up on the competition without lying too much.

fareed Posted February 21, 2007 Share Posted February 21, 2007 Maybe its just to fool ppl and increase sale or it is modded to do same. Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/267530-enhanced-edition/#findComment-4061878 Share on other sites More sharing options...
omega_c Posted February 22, 2007 Share Posted February 22, 2007 I just got this email back from him: The enhancements to the graphics audio and customization were added when the game was moved onto a PC format.

Mixolydian Posted February 22, 2007 Author Share Posted February 22, 2007 That makes sense. Nice detective work! Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/267530-enhanced-edition/#findComment-4064216 Share on other sites More sharing options...
omega_c Posted February 23, 2007 Share Posted February 23, 2007 Oh, I forgot to ask/mention this: Was it actually "upgraded"? Or was that a total lie? Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/267530-enhanced-edition/#findComment-4065259 Share on other sites More sharing options...
