How to Avoid the Lags in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories

Suffering from lags always proves infuriating when playing computer games, especially when it causes your game to crash, leaving any achievements or new levels you unlocked in that sitting completely wasted and lost forever. When playing a game such as "Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories," you could find yourself in the middle of a vital mission only to find that the game occasionally freezes for no reason, as it can happen with any game. However, taking a few necessary steps and measurements of your own should eliminate lags.

Instructions

- 1
  Acquire a different memory card. When encountering lags during gameplay, you may find the lagging can be due to something as simple as faulty memory. For instance, making the upgrade from a 4 GB Sony PSP memory card to an 8 GB memory card can make a huge difference in playability.
- 2
  Ensure that your PSP's memory card isn't too near to its capacity as this can often affect how smoothly your console runs. If you are verging on filling your memory card to the brim, it may be a sensible idea to perhaps remove some unecessary saves or items from your PSP to help it run more smoothly. It should also significantly lessen the lag you may have previously experienced playing "Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories."
- 3
  Adjust the "Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories" in-game settings by pausing the game and selecting the "Display" option. Scroll through to the game's graphics settings and lower them slightly. You may find that lowering the game's graphic performance and display ratio will improve gameplay and reduce or eliminate lag.
