"Grand Theft Auto: Vice City" (PS2): Why Do It? Quiz

Answer: Sonny Forelli sent him to kill a man, but he was ambushed

As the game progresses, we learn more about Tommy Vercetti's backstory. He was sent by Sonny Forelli to kill one man, but it was an ambush and Vercetti had to kill a lot of people.

Answer: The Forellis were scared that Tommy would be remembered, so they sent him down south to get involved in the drug trade

In the introductory scene, Sonny Forelli is seen talking with the other high ranking Forellis at Marco's Bistro in Saint Mark's in Portland, Liberty City, and they are discussing Tommy's release. They talk about how people would start remembering him when he gets out, so Sonny suggests they send Tommy to Vice City, where they have a drug-addicted lawyer as a contact.

They say they'll give him some money to start off, and let him run wild until he earns some money on the drug trade, and then they'll go down there and pick up the cash.

Answer: Shrub was planning to place restrictions on the porn industry to win the next election, and Tommy owned the porn industry at Interglobal Studios

The mission 'Martha's Mug Shot' is given to Tommy Vercetti by Steve Scott from Interglobal Film Studios on Prawn Island. Steve tells Tommy that Alex Shrub is supporting restrictions on the porn industry to win the next election, so Tommy follows Candy to Shrub's penthouse (formerly Gonzalez's).

He goes upstairs in the hotel across the street and takes photos, in order to destroy Shrub's reputation.

Answer: He was controlling RC planes carrying bombs to attack Cuban drug dealers

The mission 'Bombs Away!' is a mission given to Tommy by Haitian psychic Auntie Poulet from her home in Little Haiti. She tells Tommy to use some RC planes her nephew prepared to attack some Cuban drug dealers with the bombs they are carrying.

Answer: He was messing with the spotlights to promote Interglobal Studios' porn industry

The mission 'G-Spotlight' is given to Tommy by Steve Scott from Interglobal Film Studios, Prawn Island. They need to promote the new film, so Tommy goes to Downtown and jumps building to building on a motorbike. When he gets to the rooftop with the spotlight, he rigs it to show a picture of breasts and the word SUXXX underneath it on the building opposite.

Answer: He was ambushing a drug deal for the Cubans

This question is tricky, because you have to read it carefully. On Starfish Island three of these events have occurred. However, you must remember that whenever you pass a mission, you lose your wanted level. Taking over Ricardo Diaz's mansion ('Rub Out') and killing Lance Vance and Sonny Forelli ('Keep Your Friends Close...') both end on Starfish Island.

However, in 'Naval Engagement', after ambushing the deal, you must take the drugs back to the Cubans.

Answer: He inadvertently got drunk off the fumes of Boomshine

The mission 'Boomshine Saigon' is given to Tommy Vercetti from Phil's Place in Little Havana by Phil Cassidy. In the mission, Tommy gets drunk from the fumes of the boomshine that Phil is making a bomb from. When Phil accidentally sets off the bomb, a drunk Tommy drives an injured Phil to a hospital.

Answer: Sonny Forelli had come for his money and set his men on Tommy

In the final mission 'Keep Your Friends Close...', Tommy and Sonny have a final showdown, and it turns out that Lance Vance had betrayed Tommy. Again, this is a tricky question because it is the same house Diaz was killed in, however when Diaz was killed, it wasn't Tommy's house.

Answer: Love Fist were defusing a bomb inside it

The mission 'Publicity Tour' is given to Tommy from the V-Rock radio station by Love Fist. In this mission, Tommy is driving Love Fist to their gig in the limo, when they find a bomb in the boomshine. If Tommy comes to a stop, the bomb will go off. Eventually, they defuse the bomb, and Tommy drives them to the gig.

Answer: Mitch Baker

In the mission 'Alloy Wheels of Steel', given to Tommy by Mitch Baker from The Greasy Chopper in Downtown, Tommy wants Big Mitch Baker to work security for the Love Fist gig, but Baker only does favours for Bikers. The only way for Tommy to join is to prove himself in a bike race.

Answer: For a job robbing a bank

The mission 'No Escape?' is given to Tommy Vercetti by Ken Rosenberg from the Malibu Club in Vice Point. They need a safe cracker for the bank job, and so Ken suggests Cam Jones, who is in jail. Tommy then goes to the police station dressed as a cop, and breaks Jones out.

Answer: Auntie Poulet

The mission 'Juju Scramble' is given to Tommy by Auntie Poulet from her home in Little Haiti. She asks him to go and pick up some stashes of juju, but the cops think it's drugs and are closing in on it.

Answer: Cortez was helping Tommy find his money

The mission 'All Hands on Deck' is given to Tommy by Juan Cortez from his boat. The French FBI close in on Cortez, and Tommy and the sailors fire from the boat as Cortez sails away.

Answer: Mercedes Cortez

The mission 'Recruitment Drive' is given to Tommy from Interglobal Film Studios by Steve Scott. Tommy needs two people to be in the porno movie, and these two spring to his mind.

Answer: Yes

The mission 'Dirty Lickin's' was the final mission for Auntie Poulet. The Cubans and Haitians are going into a big showdown, and Auntie Poulet sends Tommy in to snipe a few Cubans down.
