    Grand Theft Auto: Vice City is now available for iOS devices via the App Store, which is completely insane when you stop to think about it. When this game was new ten years ago, it took an entire game console to get to play it, and now your damn telephone just happens to be powerful enough to also run this game as a bonus.The $4.99 Universal App has been updated from the PS2 original and now features Retina-optimized HD graphics and the ability to listen to the music in your iTunes library as a radio station, which is actually pretty sweet. I mean, you're still playing a PlayStation 2 game with on-screen touch controls, but at least you can listen to Ke$ha while you do it.

    Rockstar has decided to pull the PC version of Grand Theft Auto: Vice City from digital distributors for an undisclosed period while it deals with some licensing-related complications."Due to some music licensing issues, we've had to temporarily remove Vice City PC from digital stores. We'll make it available again as soon as possible," a statement to Game Informer reads. Rockstar hasn't specifically called out which song(s) are at the heart of this dispute, but tells Game Informer this current licensing issue won't affect the upcoming mobile port.Cinema Blend suggests it's Michael Jackson's "Wanna Be Startin' Something" that's the problem, which Sony Music Entertainment owns. If you've already purchased Vice City through Steam or your other favorite digital distributor, you should run into no problems installing and playing the game – unless you do, in which case you'll want to call your cousin Carl. He's real good with them computers.
