Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars does many things correct. However, the replay level of the game is moderately high and will not be as addicting as the other major titles for the big console games such as Grand Theft Auto: The Ballad Of Gay Tony, or Grand Theft Auto 4, even Grand Theft Auto: The Lost And Damned

If you are reading this that means you have read more then just the cover. Which is good, and so is this game. I have read reviews and seen trailers of this game so I decided to play my friends version of the game( he was drooling over it in an attempt to stop me from playing it) so I was pretty excited when I first booted up this game. Then the one liners and sarcasm started flying and hurting my ears. Its was that bad and I was ready to turn off the game before it even started. Its a good thing Huang Lee stops stalking after a few minutes and thats when the beuaty of the game shines through. The heart pounding chases, the fantastic explosions, and sneaking drug trade left me wondering why hasnt anybody with a DS bought this amazing game? Because its the only inapropriate game. Thats ***! Anyone should play this game. I dont care if the targeting is off. We were spoiled into GTA4's beautiful shooting, but this one holds up well enough not to slow you down. All I can say is now I wish I had a PSP , this game, and mabe a job.

If you have a PSP and a DS, I strongly suggest you get this game for PSP. Not that I'm saying the game for DS is bad, but the PSPs game version has much better graphics. If you like using the touch screen on the DS, GTA Chinatown Wars has many part where you have to use the touch screen to do things like hi-jack cars, operate machines, break out of cars, and operate your weapons, unlike the PSP version in which you use mainly L and R or the analog stick to do those things. This GTA is like older versions of GTA using the overhead view and cartoonish look (only on DS version, PSP versions looks more realistic). GTA Chinatown Wars has a very good story line that keeps you playing. Here are some cheats both for PSP and DS:

This game is so much fun to play that it has caused me to buy a psp for myself so that i don't have to wait to use my friends to play it. I really like the extra mini games that it has in the game. It also has a really pleasing story to go along with it.

Chinatown Wars is one of the highest rated DS games of all time, yet for some reason the Nintendo crowd kept its distance. Recognizing the game deserves a better fate, Rockstar promptly ported its handheld gem in hopes of finding a more appreciative audience with the game-starved PSP owners. [Excerpt]

The PSP version is a pound-for-pound port featuring the same retro top-down GTA action of its DS cousin. Players dive into the Liberty City underground as Huang Lee, the son of a deceased Triad boss who gets involved in the power struggle to take over leadership in his wake. Huang Lee’s over-the-top sarcasm and the generally unlikable cast do the story no favors, but you’ll likely be too immersed in the drug trade to take notice.

In traditional GTA fashion, much of your time is spent blowing up buildings, killing troublemakers, fetching important items for your higher ups, and running from the cops. For the PSP version, Rockstar also added another set of missions revolving around an independent reporter who is as crazy as the criminals on whom she’s reporting. While this mission-based formula still yields a lot of fun, I found myself frequently shunning the narrative in favor of pursuing the almighty unlaundered dollar in the drug trade.

Liberty City’s black market drug trading is nuanced, with different gang factions controlling the distribution of certain drugs. The smart dealer can make a killing buying low from one group and selling high to the deviants just dying for a fix. The danger is in acquiring and transporting large amounts of cocaine and heroin across the city – some deals are busted by sting operations, and if you don’t want to lose the large sums of cash you invested in the illegal substances you need to avoid arrest at all costs. Making money in the drug trade becomes all the more important considering most missions pay you less than welfare. Kill a rival? Here’s $50 – don’t spend it all in one place. To keep Lee flush with ammo and bulletproof vests, you have to get your nose dirty.

The PSP’s widescreen display is an asset during police chases, as the broader view makes it easier to see which direction the heat is coming from. The minigames for hotwiring cars, disarming bombs, and making Molotov cocktails also benefit from the transition to Sony’s handheld – you no longer have to hold the stylus awkwardly in your hand as you wait to employ it at a moment’s notice. If you get in a gunfight, however, there is no quick fix for the sketchy targeting that maims both versions of this game. You can still waste most of your enemies in a timely fashion; just don’t expect to feel empowered by jamming on a button to shoot.

Regardless of the game’s mechanical simplicity, Rockstar has created an addictive, bite-sized serving of its patented “breaking the law” gameplay. Chinatown Wars jams an entire metropolis in your handheld that’s just begging to be exploited.
