Oh man

It makes me so happy that there are still ice cream trucks. The horrible smog of fear and cynicism has not killed them yet.

There was a mission in GTA3 (the first one) where you hijacked an ice cream truck and started the tune. The tune would attract mafioso (cause Italians love ice-cream) and then you'd blow it up.

Good thing politicians don't *actually* investigate the games they like to vilify or ice cream trucks would be so banned already.

In Vice City you could buy an ice cream truck business outright, and make money just driving around selling ice cream to people. The implication was that the "ice cream" was actually drugs of some sort, but this was never made entirely clear.

Heh. For some reason I couldn't stand Vice City so I never got that far. You could deliver pizza too, by thowing them at people a la Paperboy as I recall... maybe it really was just ice cream. Gangstas still gotta eat.
