nebones News:GTA Chinatown Wars on DS Rockstar Press release
nebones | 1:17 AM on 07.16.2008 7 comments




For those who didn't know, GTA has been announced on the Nintendo DS.

Below is the Press Release for GTA Chinatown Wars on DS. It doesn't give much away, like if it will be above camera like GTA Advance or the 3rd person view like GTA4. The only thing that worries me is "Chinatown Wars will be available on the Nintendo DS™ in North America and Europe this winter." Does the rest of the world have to import or just miss out?

I kind of think Rockstar is just being a cock teasing bitch?

The full press release from Rockstar Games:

Rockstar Games, a publishing label of Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc. (NASDAQ: TTWO), is proud to announce Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars. Developed by Rockstar Leeds in conjunction with series creators Rockstar North, Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars will be available on the Nintendo DS™ in North America and Europe this winter.

"This is a game that will deliver a rich, fast-paced and intense 'Grand Theft Auto' experience that will be truly unique to Nintendo's handheld platform," said Sam Houser, Founder of Rockstar Games. "Rockstar Leeds, along with the team at Rockstar North, has built upon a decade of progressive design on Grand Theft Auto, and has created something fundamentally fresh and immersive.

Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars is an entirely original entry into the critically acclaimed Grand Theft Auto series, and brings a new level of interactivity to its sprawling open environments. With the use of the DS touch screen, players will navigate their way through the streets as they uncover the truth behind an epic tale of crime and corruption within the Triad crime syndicate, delivering the unprecedented amount of depth that has become a true trademark of the franchise.

Fucking sweet! I have a feeling that this will go back to the old school top down view from GTA1 and 2. The bottom screen will be the main screen and the top will be the map with GPS like in GTA4

I see two options:

1) It will be amazing.
2) It will be amazingly underwhelming.

Guys, you do realize that they even had a GTA for the Game Boy Color, right? They did one for the Game Boy Advance too. So GTA on the DS isn't really all that far fetched.
