Emotion 98.3 is a radio station hosted by Fernando Martinez (voiced by Frank Chavez) in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City and by Lionel Makepeace (voiced by Steve Stratton) in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories.

Description

The station features Power Ballads. An album of the songs from the station is available separately or as part of the Vice City soundtrack box set, and is the only radio station with all of its songs on the official CD.

As a note, "Crockett's Theme" by Jan Hammer is a reference to Miami Vice since it is the theme for James "Sonny" Crockett. This piece of music also creates a minor anachronism, because although it was first recorded in 1984, it was not released as a single until 1987, a year after the setting of GTA Vice City.

Emotion 98.3 sponsored several Hotring Racers and Bloodring Bangers in 1986.
