[Arnetrumpet915]

[KoopDawg0]

[965halfevil]

@2007pepsilover yeah

[0Megaman54]

cool vid! i enjoyed it and i have this game and its awesome, i love it. :D

[PPKproductions3]

i dont even know why they called it chinatown wars when its based in gta 4's liberty city only without Alderney island.

[ultimatetoturial56]

this game looks gta 1

[PineappleAlex]

@YourGuy95 Cool Story Bro.

[zitosonic]

[lifes40123]

[Kazdal567]

@lifes40123 it's worth it, you should get one :) you never get bored cause you can always get new games :)

[Yozer245]

thanks dude

[cursedreject]

its some voodoo they did to make a game this massive run so well.

its weird how some simple puzzle games have long load times when this has like none.

[darknessb930]

China town?? More like Hong Kong wars..

[Young3Buck]

MF DOOM

[AXISuploads]

I have both iPod & psp versions and pap one is a lot more fluid and fun. Controls are simpler and graphics are slightly better.

[TheWorldwidekiller]

That game is fully sick anyone should get it on ds,psp and itouch

[thander28210]

has nice graphics why you hat to look from above ?

[Bloodsh0tTV]

is it just missions or is it like killing and shit rofl

[firesoul1234]

its missing mulitplayer which is in the psp and ds versions :(

[ZacDaMan72]

the lite is pretty cool!

[wardog3d]

Just heard Nintendo is officially scared of iPhone as a future "portable" gaming console competitor to their gameboy..

They no longer are worried about Sony since the PSP is a non factor to them.

[Marivar01]

how to put games in ipodtouch i installed NFS Undercover and nothing

[hcakid]

still can't beleve 1 of the islands is gone

[Hawkgoulet]

Should I get this for my iPod touch or my PSP?

[kittykatkilla12]

@Hawkgoulet on the iphone, the battery runs out pretty fast so it has to be charged, and the steering is a little bit hard. but the iphone version only costs 10$

[TacoNinja17]

@Hawkgoulet If you don't mind the price, I'd recommend the PSP version. Though really, the iPod version is nothing less of the PSP, save a couple small time missions, but it's controls are difficult to get used to. Where on the PSP, controls work great and graphics are top notch.

Again, that is if you don't mind the price. The iPod version is almost just as good, but costs a LOT less.

It also depends on whether or not you want it to be available to you regularly, as the iTouch is more portable.

[Halofan123ish]

@Hawkgoulet get it for itouch

[firesoul1234]

@Hawkgoulet actually there both good cuz i pod version costs less but psp has multiplayer which is not featured in the i pod version

[Zolega89]

can you play this on sciphone?

[jeesh123]

@Zolega89 sciphone?

[Pomonastyler]

Haha, the iFruit computer ;D

[st8tBG]

its odd, pedestrians runs as fast as cars go

[huhteam]

i dont have iphone.

[TA2QUK]

is the soundtrack real music like from real artists/bans... or can you do your own from music on your iphone/ipod touch

[Beerunifies]

@TA2QUK yes and yes - nice variety in radio stations, too, from hip-hop to electronic to rock. to create your own radio station you need to create a playlist in itunes, named GTA then sync your iphone and choose the Independence FM radio station whenever you're in a car

[live4lambo]

im 13 yrs ld would this game be to mature for me? plz reply

[nutzw1]

@live4lambo get it kid!! it's porn drugs and guns ! it's cool

[TwilightSucks999]

if you go to public school, no. I met some kids from a private school, GTA would traumatize them xD.

[joidi2]

The iPhone version looks better than the DS version imo. Its because they took those annoying black lines out of everything

[Darkensei]

... I did, tnx. Really nice review. :)

[Fisaren]

looks like the best game for iphone ;D

[KevinHasem]

i already finish this game 1 hour ago

[Hypermammal]

@KevinHasem What? You want a fucking medal? Who the fuck cares

[MrPlmgrn]

I have a question about GTA Chinatown wars.I have a 2G iPod touch, software version: 3.1.3.

Will it work on my iPod touch? Some people say this game needs a microphone but an iPod touch doesn't have one.

[gilder37]

alright noobs, stop mentioning installous before something happens to it. if it gets taken down ima be pissed cause soon as i beat gangstar (yes, i did pay for it) im getting this fo FREE.

[goldini5]

That was good review, but try talking more about how fun it is, pros and cons, and if it is worth buying. This was more of a "first look", maybe next time go into a little more depth. Good luck, cheers

[Amer123786]

Good video is it worth £5.99

[spacemanspiff33]

this game was so worth the 0 dollars I paid for it :) god bless installous... XD

[Salvidorian4]

Amen! xD

[nell509]

HALLILUAH

[OnlyVideoGuyOnEarth]

@OoDARKMIKEoO I've tried all of them and I strongly recommend you buy vcs. lcs is not as good but still really good and the cheats are super cool too on both

[linkinparkverizon]

That was a damn tutorial

[ciliboy3]

the ds version sucks

[xGodOfGta3x]

@ciliboy3 dont hate cuz its original on the DS and every other one is just a port, if it sucks on the ds, then it sucks on all of them, and I like my sucky gta chinatown wars, so suck on it

[usus9us]

i got used to it and now i am a pretty good driver. the story line is good, not to difficult, the whole game is awsome . worth $10 so go out and buy it.

[JAMamation]

£5.99 in pound sterling (english)

[07llyall]

I don't have this game (yet) but i have gang$tar and it's rubbish compared to how good this looks. This costs a couple of quid more, but looks well worth it.

[katiesafitty]

not sure if i should by this £5.99 is pretty cheap and the reviews say this games awesome but.. people are saying the controls are way to sensitive, you end up zig-zagging down the road in your car lol, having to turn then turn again to compensate.

[iGnoRaNcEd]

this game's controls are a bit difficult at first...

but then you get really used to it, so it's fine.

[MrBaller96]

Gangstar has a better 3D environment (think GTA III in a pint-sized San Andreas), but Chinatown Wars has infinitely more content and replayability. Get the real GTA, it's worth the money.

[Ericclapton325]

trying to decide wether to get this or gangstar

[Nazrat84]

Ever try Payback?

[katiesafitty]

imo, i'd get this not gangstar.. i bought gangstar and it got boring really quickly.. this game looks alot more fun, just the steering is apparently annoying.. still wondering if i should buy this..

---

[sorry for double post] lol

[MasterT610]

looks like a good game

the only thing that bothers me is that everyone looks bigger than the cars...maybe its the vid, idk

[SnickerDoodIes]

Can you just walk around in your free time in the game?

[champ4lyf3]

@SnickerDoodIes yeah

[gilder37]

what's better this or gangstar?

[champ4lyf3]

@gilder37 this is way better i downloaded both and i say this is better

[mg426426426]

this is WAY better than gangstar. gangstar only looks better because of the graphics, but in terms of gameplay and replay value gta is definitely better. plus the world in gangstar is really small, and in gta it's really huge.

[TytheRoad]

YOU know when u sumtimes get into a car and do you do that thing where you unscrew all the screws can you do that? and can you do scratch cards on this 1?, and can you sell drugs on this 1? and can you fill up the petrol bomb thing pls some 1 answer ima buy it 4 £5 on ma ipod

[Leeburns652011]

you can do all of that stuff

[kruz200]

awesome game, got in my psp. will soon got my itouch

[ThugSerhat]

Nice Video, i think i'm gonna buy this Game:)

[DragonzDenPwnage]

i like this game on my iphone,i played it on my psp...

[killerblazer459]

i have played (and finished) both Versions of CW on DSi and PSP go and i think that the ipod version is actually better than both because it has features from both consoles that are exclusive to THOSE consoles (ex: touch ability from DS and enhanced graphics from PSP) and has its own exclusiv stuff! (ex. independance FM)

[OoDARKMIKEoO]

Ok I Got $50 on My PSP go. So what do I Buy GTA LCS n VCS or GTA CTW along?

[Skilhgt]

GTA VCS

[0Banjo0]

@OoDARKMIKEoO

Chinatown wars imo

but then again, i've never played the Stories games.

[Zonehacks]

jailbreak your iphone../.

[SuperApple20]

I got this free of installous! =p

[Theswiftkiller]

hey what link you used appscene?

[hunteruh]

@SuperApple20 good lad

[dustyatari]

if it wasn't for eric cartman refrencing this game, i would have never looked into it and baught it.

[killerblazer459]

haha nice! but its true all three versions of this game are great! psp, dsi and Ipod are all good games! i find Ipod best because it encorpoorates stuff from both psp and ds versions and it has its own exclusive stuff to it!

[aspenbonzer]

codwaw zombies

[maplecrisis]

its good :)

[Leeburns652011]

i had the ds version and bought this and enjoyed this alot more than the ds one

[Spiceman333]

is this really worth getting?

[ashboy1002]

@Spiceman333 yes

[gomilev]

yes

[dustyatari]

yes

[mpx101]

the graphics look horrible!

[raihangame786]

What do you expect from the iphone?

[arnoldwii]

its a fucking iphone app

[thalunizz21]

where did you get AC2 i cant find it in the app store did you get it before they took it off??

[meowskull]

the controls look horrendous

[dcent2]

jailbreak

[iphoneallthetime]

Hay how did you get it for free?

[IMUKHTASIMOV]

awesome game

[Headphoneguy92]

you run over claude at 9:57 :P

[videoreborn]

Just update your iphone to 3.1.2 and jailbreak it. This game rocks! It has the PSP enhanced graphics but maintain the NDS's touch screen gameplay mechanics.

[jaknak07]

@videoreborn You should remember though that the PSP graphics on it's previous GTA titles ie GTA vice city stories was significantly better than this.

[dcent2]

not better. just different. you CANNOT compare the two.

[iKid101]

This is so dumb, I have a jail-broken device on 3.0 and this game only runs on the newest version of the OS!

[DeathstrokeV]

upgarde ur software version

[K9unittp]

I've been trying to buy the game for a while now but everytime it tells me that it requires a microphone. I have a fully updated 1st gen iPod touch HELP PLEASE

[kalionyo]

they should fix the drving controls in an update. Driving with its own D-pad.

[Josueg942]

hey dynamitejack, where you playing this game on iphone 3g or 3gs?

i have the 3g, but chinatown wars doesn't play as smooth as it plays on your phone.

just wondering, any reply would be appreciated, thanks!

[TheReaper1997]

[333335339]

[ukgame1996]

[yankeesrockalltime]
