GTA Trilogy Remake: 10 Missions We Can't Wait To Play (& 10 We're DREADING)

20. Can't Wait: Phnom Penh '86 - Vice City

What do you get when you combine a helicopter, a mounted machine gun, and infinite ammo? A flippin' brilliant time, that's what!

As you begin to work for sweaty lunatic Ricardo Diaz in the latter half of Vice City, his demands upon Tommy become increasingly more dangerous. in Phnom Penh '86, Diaz tasks Tommy - along with comrade Lance Vance - to travel to the nearby Prawn Island where a bunch of gangsters are trying to defraud Diaz.

To get there, Tommy and Lance grab a maverick helicopter equipped with an M60 machine gun. What plays out is quite other missions in GTA: Vice City; this mission is more of an on-rails shooter where Lance handles the control of the helicopter and Tommy is responsible for mowing down goon after goon using a massive machine gun.

In the second part of the mission, Tommy leaps out of the helicopter and must proceed on foot to mow down even more goons, collect money, and be collected by Lance in the chopper once more. It's a difficult mission as there's plenty of goons hiding everywhere, but once you nail it, it's really quite satisfying.

Wondering where the strange name of this mission comes from? It's believed to be a reference to refer both to the Vietnam War (think Apocalypse Now) and the Capital City of Cambodia, Phnom Pen. The '86, of course, comes from the year Vice City is set in - 1986.
