Apparently the highest rated DS game ever, Chinatown Wars is making it’s way over to the PSP on October 2oth. Receiving added graphic polish in terms of textures and lighting, the bulk of the features found on the DS will make the translation to the PSP.
What I don’t see making it, obviously, is all the touch screen elements that made the DS version so unique and innovative such as scratch tickets and dumpster diving. What I would really like to see is GTA: San Andreas make it to the PSP. Check out the debut trailer down below:
‘Grand Theft Auto: ChinaTown Wars’ is set to be released this October for the PSP Go and it now looks like Rockstar will launch an iPhone version around the same time. Despite Apple’s strict and rather stringent app store policies, Rockstar says the game will go unedited and include all the phallic language and sexual content Grand Theft Auto players have come to expect and love.
Control of the game will come by way of an onscreen analog stick. Based on my experience it takes sometime to get use to, and although it’s a viable way to control the onscreen action, it’s still is a far cry from having a set of physical buttons. So if anything, this version will appeal to the casual gamer who wants to try their hand at Rockstar’s most popular game.
There’s no word on a launch date or price, but Rockstar says they also plan to release Beaterator, an app that lets you make “world-class beats and songs.”
Is Grand Theft Auto coming to the iPhone? There is no way to know for sure, but coming-on-iphone.com has a teaser video that indicates just that. Of course, this could just be a knock off GTA game and by adding a dash of anonymity they figured they could leverage the GTA brand equitity. Or some kids on summer break had nothing better to do with their time than get our blogosphere panties in a ball. Nonetheless, the video says it’s coming this summer, so we’ll just have to wait and see.
Of note: Reghardware said they reached out to Rockstar UK and they wouldn’t confirm or deny the game. And of course the URL registration info is set to private, but the domain was just registered on May 25th.
