(E3) GTA DS Confirmed

Deathsythe | July 15, 2008 | News | DS E3 2008 Company 
So I guess Nintendo hasn't totally gone down the family path and is allowing GTA: Chinatown Wars to be released for the DS. This isn't the first GTA portable, and hopefully will not be the last.
Rockstar Games, a publishing label of Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc. (NASDAQ: TTWO), is proud to announce Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars. Developed by Rockstar Leeds in conjunction with series creators Rockstar North, Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars will be available on the Nintendo DS™ in North America and Europe this winter.

"This is a game that will deliver a rich, fast-paced and intense 'Grand Theft Auto' experience that will be truly unique to Nintendo's handheld platform," said Sam Houser, Founder of Rockstar Games. "Rockstar Leeds, along with the team at Rockstar North, has built upon a decade of progressive design on Grand Theft Auto, and has created something fundamentally fresh and immersive."

Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars is an entirely original entry into the critically acclaimed Grand Theft Auto series, and brings a new level of interactivity to its sprawling open environments. With the use of the DS touch screen, players will navigate their way through the streets as they uncover the truth behind an epic tale of crime and corruption within the Triad crime syndicate, delivering the unprecedented amount of depth that has become a true trademark of the franchise.

    um.. interesting. i dont think they've ever really ruined a GTA. hopefully they'll follow this trend. somehow i have doubts about a huge game like grand theft auto being compacted onto a platform like the DS. im sure theyll pull it off?

    Okay, now GTA is finding it's way onto Nintendo Consoles, maybe this will be a big hint for Rockstar to make a Wii Version of GTAIV.

    Well considering that the first 2 GTAs were on the GBC, and there was a GBA one, I don't see why people are surprised that Nintendo would allow it. I'm just surprised that Rockstar would attempt it since those 3 games sucked.(On handhelds, not as console games)
