DESCRIPTION
Honor among thieves is a concept known in any culture, and no criminal organization can last without deep, unquestioning trust among its members. In Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars, players discover a betrayal of that trust: corruption that runs to the core of a Triad crime syndicate. Most of the action in Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars is viewed from an angled, top-down perspective on the city streets, more similar to the pre-GTA3 games in the series. The stylus is used to drive, as well as in a number of mini-games representing iniquitous activities such as hotwiring cars, dealing drugs, and digging through debris for stashed goods. The game presents a new experience in the Grand Theft Auto series, tailor-made to touch-screen play, and an original story to go with it. Fans will find the same open world, emergent adventure, violent action, pop-culture riffing, and dark humor that make the Grand Theft Auto series the most glorified and notorious of its time. What they won't find is a rehash of previous adventures with the likes of Tommy Vercetti or Niko Bellic. Forget it. It's Chinatown. ~ T.J. Deci, All Game Guide

“I was floored that graphics like this could be offered on the DS. This game is great and uses just about every important function the DS has to offer. If you love Grand Theft Auto, this is a must have title especially if you own a DS. Even if you don't, go out and buy a DS if you like GTA.
It's a game you shouldn't miss.”
