How close does the game get to the real place?
In the game
Rockstar's website describes the VC Port as the cruise ship capital of the world, and the first trailer shows a busy port with the city skyline behind it.
The real place
PortMiami sits on Dodge Island in Biscayne Bay, calls itself the Cruise Capital of the World and handles over 7 million cruise passengers a year. The game borrows that slogan almost word for word, and Miami New Times matched the trailer's port shot to it.
Visiting
The terminals are only open to ticketed passengers, so watch the ships from Bayfront Park downtown, or from South Pointe Park in Miami Beach as they sail out through Government Cut.
PortMiami is also in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. See all 2 games side by side
