One downside to Chinatown Wars being so uncompromising in its attempt to replicate the GTA experience is that, because the PSP has fewer buttons than other systems, you're occasionally required to use them in ways that aren't entirely comfortable. There's even an option to superimpose GPS directions directly onto the street, which works a lot better than having to look down at the map on the bottom screen. There are some great options to make the game even more user-friendly as well, such as autotargeting for drive-by shootings and a subtle steering assist that automatically straightens up your vehicle so that it's parallel with the road that you're on. The uncomplicated on-foot and vehicle controls are largely the same (sprint becomes accelerate, shoot is still shoot), so even those of you with no prior GTA experience should have no trouble picking them up quickly. Basic controls for movement and car-jacking are mapped to the same button positions that they are on other platforms. Many of these missions involve the usual mix of driving fast, killing people, and not getting caught by the cops, but there are plenty of varied and memorable missions as well.įor the most part, Chinatown Wars plays just like any other GTA game, which is an achievement in itself. As Huang, you advance the story-which should take you about nine hours to play through-by undertaking missions for a number of different characters within the Triad organization, as well as for one or two people outside of it. Huang flies to Liberty from Hong Kong to avenge his father, and predictably becomes embroiled in the war between those hoping to step into the dead man's shoes. Set in the same instantly recognizable Liberty City as GTAIV (minus one island), Chinatown Wars tells the story of a power struggle within the Triad gangs from the perspective of Huang Lee, whose crime-boss father has recently been murdered.

This wannabe TV reporter offers you a few missions that weren't in the DS game.
That's a bold statement for sure, but Chinatown Wars really is that good. Chinatown Wars actually has more in common with GTAs III and IV than it does with earlier games, and, remarkably, it even adds to and improves on the formula that made those games so successful. But the similarities between this superb PSP game and its '90s progenitors pretty much end there. The action is viewed from a more or less top-down perspective, and of course you still spend much of your time driving stolen cars and causing trouble with firearms. At first glance, Chinatown Wars could be mistaken for a return to the Grand Theft Auto series' humble 2D beginnings.
