There's a Chinatown in every decent sized city... Meaning that this game COULD actually take place during Vice City, San Andreas, or anything in Liberty City. They made the Vice City PSP game a sort-of remake as Vice City Stories, since you're a different character and it's a prequel. So they do weirdness like that. Either way, if it's 3D sandbox GTA like the latest ones, I'll probably get it. I mean... PORTABLE GTA! And not portable top-down GTA-GTA2 style (those games are good, but... Yeah.)!! GTA on DS? And possibly not a remake? I'm down for that.
Probably not a remake, seeing the game takes place in China Town.
So did they say anything about a new DS model?
Nothing, as I've said, everything is in my first post in this topic. If its not there, it doesn't exist.
When I checked you had nothing about the GTA game which exists, SO THERE! |

I just looked at the list of links, that's why. I've never fully completed a GTA game. I once borrowed a PS2 to play San Andreas, but I didn't play it too much. I got really far in the first PSP one, though. I actually think I might've beaten it, just doing the bare minimum, though.
I still like San Andreas the best of all of them. The story was/is great and it's so much more customizeable than the other games. You can mod cars and everything. GTA4 is cool, but... I don't know. There's things about it that BLAH me right out. Driving anything anywhere is total ass in it, I generally just cab everywhere I can. I just dislike basically every car (they all drive almost the same anyway) when in the other games I like trying out the cars. The only car I've tried that's a decent drive in GTA4 is the police cars. And motorcycles are total ##### in it. No trip skip. That's a big one when you're doing the more pesky missions that have you die/fail in cheapo weird ways. But the restart mission thing is great. Niko... Has basically no character. I realize YOU'RE supposed to be the character, but... Even his reactions to what people say or do. He almost always has the same expression. It's not really an "I don't give a #####" thing, it's more like he doesn't even notice that stuff is happening around him. He looks like a dorkwad in pretty much everything except the suits. Musically, meh. The benefit of Vice City and San Andreas being set in the past is that all the songs are chosen in hindsight. Hindsight IS 20/20 and it applies to music easily. When you're choosing songs from the 80's or 90's, you have to benefit of most songs being universally received as either good or bad without the difference of opinion that may have happened when the songs came out initially. In GTA4, you get songs from THIS year, which in the future may or may not (more than like not for most of them) be seen as classics from this decade. Like really... "Flashing Lights"? Right. The whole game is dark, which I guess is actually pretty indicative of what a corrupt place Liberty City is. I guess Liberty City is a take on what the darkside of New York City is supposed to be like. But the environments aren't all just dark, but... Kind of bland. Colour-wise only, because in terms of detail the game is nuts. And I find movement a bit weird. And the way doors just push open like they're made of DVD-Case plastic or a light fiberglass. That said, all the new innovations (or just new stuff, rather) are pretty sweet. I just find San Andreas and even Vice City (which I did not initially care for, but plan to borrow and try) have an overall feel that GTA4 has abandoned. It's like a whole new GTAniverse, and it not having connections to the previous games doesn't really help. |
