Grand Theft Auto
Thursday, February 4, 2010 at 1:01PM I have been a fan of of the Grand Theft Auto franchise for many years. It has been the catalyst for me buying two game systems the Playstation 2 and the Playstation portable.
I have GTA on several platforms:
- GTA 2 on the Sega Dreamcast
- GTA 3 on the PC
- GTA San Andreas for the PS2
- GTA Liberty City Stories on the PSP
- GTA IV on the PC
- GTA Chinatown Wars for iPhone
Chinatown Wars is a great port for the iPhone. It has a sort of GTA2 look with lots of details like the newer games have. For example when you steal a car you have to use a screwdriver or in some cases hot wire it by crossing the wires and twisting them. It's a good game that takes advantage of the multi-touch capabilities of the iPhone. I do wish the driving was easier. Using the accelerometer would have been a better choice for driving.
I haven't been able to play GTA IV much since my PC's video card is getting old. Luckily the laptop has a newer video card so it works there. It isn't very convienent playing GTA on a laptop especially one that is prone to overheating.
