I just got an email from Rockstar because I'm on their mailing list or whatever and they are promoting Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars for the Nintendo DS this Winter. No other details included other than the logo and that it is being designed ground up for the DS.

I heard of china town wars, but wasn't it an addon for GTA:IV?

Not according to this email, it's a standalone game.

Maybe they make you steal the cars by touching the private parts of the car.

It's going to be kinda ugly on the DS.

Graphics aren't everything, but dealing with GTA, it's pretty important. Not necessarily because it needs to instill a realistic feel to it, but because the good GTAs are all graphics-hogs. Either we get stuck with another shitty 2D GTA because the DS is limited in power, or the game ends up sucking because the game's engine can't keep up a good enough draw distance, and you keep crashing into people while driving, or some shit like that.

All my friends who played most 3D GTAs kept using graphics as an argument to play it...

I think the DS can pull off a good enough 3D version, although with a smaller city.

Was it? I remember the presskit that was linked here but I didn't remember seeing it anywhere in the list.

I have to be honest, I kind of liked the 2D GTAs. I don't prefer them to the 3D ones, but I liked them all the same.

Stopped reading at "another shitty 2D GTA". I don't like blasphemy in the evening.

GTA 1 was good, too. Men folk like their women scary, 'cause they are so big and hairy. Or however that song went. It was catchy.
