Tommy Vercetti is the name of the up-and-coming mobster in the hit Playstation 2 video game, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. After being locked up in jail in Liberty City (New York) for 15 years, Tommy is sent by his mob boss, in 1986, to the beach paradise of Vice City (Miami). There, Tommy meets up with various underworld figures and starts up his own criminal empire dealing in drugs, guns, and any other odd jobs that can provide a little extra cash.

Tommy Vercetti is voiced by Goodfellas star, Ray Liotta.

Thomas Vercetti´s father worked at a printing works, but his son followed a majorly different career choice. He is a superb driver, a formidable shooter and could not care less about obeying the law.

Vercetti´s activities include assassinations, drive-by shootouts, stealing a tank from the U.S. military, dozens of rampages, assaulting stores at gunpoint, stealing cars, selling drugs and robbing a bank, as well as non-criminal activites - such as working as a taxi driver, an ambulance driver, a pizza deliveryman, and even a vigilante disguised as a policeman. Not surprisingly, when working as a vigilante to fight crime he must first steal the proper vehicle- which may be a police car, a SWAT van, or even a military helicopter.
