However that doesn't mean it won't have some of the nice refined features that GTA:SA had...

GTA got better due to various gameplay additions, not a change in city.... Well I guess in SA it was somewhat better due to the sheer huge-ass-ity of the gameplay area, but still :>

Oh and I'd like to end on a note that I got probably halfway through SA before my attention shifted to other games, and so far I havn't gone back...

the argument that PSP is a portable PS2 and DS is original, is a silly argument, both have thier ports, DS has Mario64, and PSP has something i guess. Thier portable systems, thoes are the kind of games portable systems get. always been that way.

as far as GTPSP, i heard the same as DH, same place, different missions.

PSP is PS 1.8

Whereas DS is N63 1/3 (if you can guess why I say 63 1/3 and not 63, you get a +rep

)

well i'd say its because its graphics arentttt quite up to n64's, but im guessing you'll give me another reason.

Jonbo298 · 07-02-2005, 09:29 PM

That also but I hoped that by saying 63 1/3 and not 63 wouldve given the hint that I already know they arent 100% N64 looking

I think PSP's only actual straight-up PORT is Tony Hawk Underground 2 Remix (which I guess, as the title implies, is a bit of a remix with some added stuff? I dunno)...

It does have games that are from series that have existed on PS for awhile... Wipeout, Ridge Racer... But they're still new versions of each game...

And yes, to go into more detail on GTA for PSP, it's called Liberty City Stories (I think), and you play as Tommy Vercetti, who was one of the guy's that gave you missions in GTA3 (the one at that restaurant who's mom was always yelling at him)...

It takes place I believe in the late 90s in Liberty City, so it makes sense to use you same city layout as in 3... However like I mentioned I did hear they might add some new areas to go, of course there will be all new missions... And they are adding some of the stuff that the series has progressed with through VC and SA, such as Motorcycles and uhhh I dunno what else...

But yes, PSP is far from just a portable PS2...

Infact I believe I read somewhere that Sony was really ENCOURAGING developers to make totally new games so the PSP can't be labeled as such...

They both have lots of great games. The arguements are silly.

However, talking about ports on a handheld being that much different than console ports because of portability is a bit stupid... no way I'd own a game for each system just because I wanted it to be portable... I'd get something else that I haven't experienced before, and then I'll just play the regular game on my home system once I wasn't on the road. Most people would do this as well.
