Rockstar announced today that it is releasing Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars for the PlayStation Portable. The open-world crime game will be available at retail on UMD and digitally from the PlayStation Network in North America and Europe this fall.
According to Rockstar, the new version of Chinatown Wars will take "full advantage of the power of the PSP." It was specifically built for the PSP platform with "upscaled widescreen graphics, enhanced lighting and animation," includes "all-new story missions," and will take full advantage of the power of the PSP system."
Chinatown Wars for the DS was critically lauded (and incredibly addictive!), but didn't sell as many copies as some in the industry expected. Some think the relatively soft sales of the title for the DS are because the Nintendo handheld install base is heavy on kids and light on "core" gamers. So it will be interesting to see if the PSP's sales are stronger than the DS's sales. I'm guessing Chinatown Wars will sell better on the PSP than the DS -- maybe not in terms of total units sold, but in terms of percentage of system owners who purchase the game.
What do you think? Are you excited for the release of this title? Do you think it will do well?

It should do better on the PSP. I wonder if it would get great reviews on the PSP.

Stand down bro. Stop trying to be an instigator, and dont blame g4 for what sounds more like an isp problem or simply site traffic you had temporarily.

This will sell much better than the DS version. Vice city stories sold a couple million copies.

How will this play?, will it be overhead view?, if so, I'm not buying it.

Had I known all the awesome games coming out for PSP, I probably wouldn't have traded it in. Oh well, I guess I could wait for the PSP Go, then wait for the PSP Go to be less expensive, and then get it.

Chinatown wars finally coming to the platform it should have been released on.

Very true, Bookshelf. I'd expect the Chinatown Wars on PSP will do just as well as the other PSP GTAs. :D
