if they add voice acting, or at least better radio stations (some with some liscensed music) i'll bite on this. but really what i want to see is the other GTA PSP's get the PSN treatment. that would be awesome.

Havok83 · 06-22-2009, 09:43 PM

This is great news. I definetly will be checking it out

Toxa · 08-14-2009, 08:26 AM

lol yeah old for me

MOONPHASE · 08-14-2009, 08:40 AM

Not exactally new but not exactally old news either

AikonEnt · 08-14-2009, 08:55 AM

Known about it for a while. As I have the previous 2 GTA games for the PSP will probably get this one also (when it's £9.99 like the other ones were

).

Shin-Ra · 08-20-2009, 03:02 AM

Still nothing on Chinatown Wars?

AranhaHunter · 08-20-2009, 03:10 AM

Nada, but isn't that kinda how it is for GTA games?

Shin-Ra · 08-20-2009, 03:30 AM

I can't remember that well how LCS and VCS were handled, maybe it's irrelevant that Chinatown Wars already released if the PSP game looks significantly upgraded. Treat it like a whole new game.

Perhaps he was basing that opinion on the way the game looks on NDS? I would hope there would be an upgrade in graphics.

It was a poor dealing of the lowest form of wit, I must admit.

North American date with Europe a few days later if Rockstar history repeats itself again.

Looks good not great in stills, hopefully it plays great like the original.

Nothing like driving a firetruck full speed down a highway as cops ram their cars into you blowing themselves up.

AranhaHunter · 08-27-2009, 11:46 PM

I think I might pass on it......maybe buy it on the cheap.
