Empire Building Missions (PSP only)

[DannyLee94]

Hi,

 

Im really considering getting VCS on the PSP, along with some other things for my birthday and i have 1 (or 3 ) questions regarding Empire Building.

 

Well ill get straight to it - Are the empire building missions unlimited like the standard odd jobs in GTA (eg. vigilante, paramedic etc.) or are they unavailable after you've completed a certain amount of missions?

 

What is the empire building mechanic like as a whole? i ask this because i read in the gamespot review: "In this game you will be able to build empires - just dont expect to do anything with them!". This sounds like a real downer so could someone explain to me what the empire building is actually like?

 

Also, could someone post up some Empire building interiors (preferably one for each type of business and for the PSP) so that i can get a decent look at their presentation, structure and maybe even see if there is any significant interior recycling (although this is no biggie).

 

Thanks in Advance.

I played mostly the PS2 version of the game, but I think I can answer your questions. IN the empire building you can take over up to 30 sites, where you can build one of six types of bussinesses (Protection Racket, Loan Shark, Prostitutution, Drugs, Smuggling and Robbery). Each of this types can be small, medium and large. You have to complete missions in the bussinesses to increase income (15 levels in types from 1 to 3 and 6 levels in types from 4 to 6) This missions are unlimited, but after you complete all the levels there won't be anything more to unlock. Enemy gangs will be atacking your bussinesses when you took one of theirs and you have to defend your sites. I hope this anwers your questions.

Thanks alot for that reply and its nice to know that the missions are unlimited (much more replayability and more to do upon game completion), i have GTA CTW and the only problem i have with that game is that theres not much to do after youve completed the story; things get pretty 'same-old' pretty fast.

 

Any chance of seeing some empire building interior and exteriors?

 

Thanks so far,

Danny

You will see the interiors and exteriors in cutscenes. I really suggest getting GTA Vice City Stories because it is a smile game. Great soundtrack and story and also the side-missions like rescuing injured people on the beach or Empire Building, which was the best.

just got it on Tue. Great game so far. Already completed mission on 2nd island, where you take pics of a certain someone to clear your name.

WRONG PS2 version have Empire Building Missions i play both psp and ps2 but ps2 is dead now so psp for me

I didnt say that the ps2 didnt have empire building, but i thought at the time, that the empire building may have differed between the 2 versions; and since i was getting the psp version, i put (psp only) just to be safe.
