Destructoid is gaming news, community, videos, and sometimes love. Take the tour or jump in with Facebook:

 



Since Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars for the PSP was announced, we’ve barely seen any screens or videos for the game. Well, Rockstar finally debuted the first trailer for the PSP port and it’s looking pretty hot. 

It looks like Rockstar did a good job of adapting the touch-screen elements to the PSP. I'm not a fan of having to switch from the face buttons to the stylus on the DS so I'm definitely looking forward to Chinatown Wars on the PSP. Plus, I still love the very first Grand Theft Auto on the PlayStation One to this day and Chinatown Wars reminds me a lot of the first game.

Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars will be out for the PSP and PSPgo on October 20. Anyone planning on picking the game up?

I loved the game on the DS. Not enough to buy it again, but it was absolutely fantastic. It's a shame that it didn't sell better.

That being said, I'm all for more people playing the game. I personally can't see how it would work without the touch screen, as I feel that was a large part of the game. But if Rockstar pulls it off, PSP owners that haven't played it yet are in for a treat.

I'm glad I don't have to deal with lame, pointless touch minigames anymore, looks great.

doesnt' look that much updated graphically from the DS version....maybe i need to see it in person when it comes out to decide but i refuse to double dip on it unless they add something incredibly drastic
