Last week, a bizarre little game called HeliCity Demolition Man offered a full unlicensed remake of GTA Vice City's most infuriating mission. Now it seems publisher Take-Two has taken notice, and - get your surprised face ready - done its best to scrub the knock-off from the internet.
Cheap knock-off games hit digital stores all the time, but HeliCity Demolition Man stood out for the specificity of its inspirational material. It's a full remake of that Vice City mission where you need to pilot an RC helicopter to destroy a building, faithful to the layout, UI, and background elements of the PS2 classic. It was $2 and seemingly an easy platinum trophy, likely intended as its two biggest selling points.
