"Rockstar has just released a new trailer for their upcoming Nintendo DS game, Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars, which will be released on March 17th in North America. The clip "gives players look at what moving goods around Liberty City will be like for protagonist Huang Lee after hitting the streets on the order of his Uncle, Wu 'Kenny' Lee."
Beginning today, Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories and Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars are now available for GTA+ Members to play on compatible iOS and Android devices.
Sweet. I loved Liberty City Stories despite the city being empty. Those main story missions were tough but fun.
Both Stories games were far better than GTA 3 IMO, VCS being the best and most enjoyable though.
vgPWN: "Let's pour one out for these games that were awesome, but just didn't sell like gangbusters."
Absolutely! My only complaint was gathering all the armor pieces... so stupid.
I could never find a full set which was frustrating . Or by the time I did actually find one it was completely obsolete .
Fear Effect
Legend of Dragoon
Jade Cocoon
Auto Modellista
Parasite Eve
So much greatness not many played..
Parasite Eve was so awesome. I've heard great things about Fear Effect, too. Oddly enough, I have it in my collection but have never gotten around to playing it. :\
I wanted to like Amular, but i was disappointed with TM's artwork and the visual quality in general. It seemed like a low budget game, even though it wasn't. The decision to mimic WoW was a poor one, but combat was pretty good.
I have played KOA so much it's ridiculous. It was really good.
Though if anyone is picking it up, Please do NOT go in with completionist mentality.
The game though pretty and combat fun, is filled with way too many useless side quests...way way too many.
I think you would need more than 100hours to get across even normal side missions.
I played it on my PS3. It was a great game. The DLC was pretty fun too. Shame it wasn't the success it deserved to be.
Yeah no kidding. The controls were some of the best I've ever played. Was completely surprised at how good it was. The only downside was maybe the story. Game was still lots of fun and a sleeper hit for me. I own all the games they've listed. Didn't miss out on any of those games.
@abzdiine
i own all those games except Jade Cocoon. I also have Fear Effect 2.
@abzdiine
Thanks. I've been playing video games since 1978 though, so no where close to being a kid. If you played Colosssus Cave text adventure back in the late 1970's, then you've been gaming a long, long time. lol!!
Likewise, loved Amalur for the super slick combat alone. The story was instantly forgettable though.
I remember when my friend introduced me to Shenmue II years ago. I went out and bought myself Shenmue for my Dreamcast and Shenmue II for my Xbox. Still got them to this day.

Yet another terrible article by vgpwn, it doesn't help that they are another site that makes you go through multiple pages.
Millions of people played these games, some of them have a huge following. That site is quickly becoming one of those sites i want to avoid.
GameCrate: "We take a look at five games and franchises that would be perfect for garnering some potentially strong third-party support (which we're well aware isn't Nintendo's strong point)."
Why do people think putting an M-rated game on Nintendo console will signal an influx of more M-rated title? We've had many M-rated games on Nintendo consoles since the N64. If third parties don't feel that it's profitable to do so in the past 20 years, I doubt they'll change their mind in the next 20 years
Depends. If Nintendo are planning to create games more akin to the big games we expect from Sony or ms in tandem with their fan favourites like zelda Mario, xenoblade etc, the Console could see an influx of more users. And if the Console is like ps4 and xb1 when developing games for it, that could really push 3rd parties to include Nintendo again. It's all up in the air right now of course because we don't know anything about the Console but with previous rumours of the likes of dragon quest 11 and more coming to the nx, it's fun to speculate on other 3rd parties that would be cool to see on the new console.
GameCube was on hardware parity with its competition, yet it didn't receive as many of the multiplats. Wii U has hardware parity with PS3 and 360, yet it still misses out on many of those multiplats.
I really don't see why this situation would change with NX.
i want cod battlefield and gta oh yeah nintendo will win console war easily with those big sellers with better graphics and fps than ps4
Unless the Console is developed as a next gen console, I don't really see much changing in how things are going, even if it is a bit stronger than ps4. If it's designed to compete rather than pass out then the market will remain the same. Ps4s lead is pretty much set in stone due to its mainstream popularity. Before it could even think about overtaking ps4 it needs to catch up with xb1 which, despite being severely behind ps4, is still selling very well in its own right. If the nx were a whole generations difference between ps4 and xb1 then we could see some interesting turn of events. But it would also need to work on expanding its games library and entice 3rd party devs to develope all games on ps4/xb for the nx as well.
Edit: fixed grammar
CoD didn't sell for crap on Wii U, and it ran better than its PS3 and 360 counterparts before the PS4 and XBone launched.
If it didn't help the Wii U, chances are it won't help the NX.
Exclusives are more important than multiplats when it comes to getting the NX to sell.
That's just how it is.
No one is going to plunk down over $200 for an NX just because it has a copy of the latest CoD, when they can pay only $60 for it on a console they already own[PS4/XBone].
It's too late bruh the PS4 took over like 80% of 8th gen home console market share. It will sell like the N64 at best. Unless they are waiting for 9th gen or something which by then will be too late. We all know Nintendo doesn't care about 3rd party. The consoles they create are for their benefit and only their benefit. They do not go to other companies and ask what they may need/want in a console so they can grow and thrive. They are stubborn and do not improve their consoles. They do not live or die on 3rd party and thus are on a one man island.
Sadly to say, but when it comes to Nintendo home consoles, they are almost irrelevant to the average person. Yes the wii Nintendo's best selling console was relevant, but I honestly think it was just a fluke.
Unless Playstation stops getting lots Japanese games I like each gen, then I'll stick with them.
I just love mathematicians on N4G! So the PS4 has taken like 80% of the 8th gen market share you say. Does that mean there's only 20% left of what the PS4 has currently sold available to these consoles to sell?
Nintendo needs to bring in more struggling developers in Japan who are still obsessed with Sony, who isn't selling well over there, which is exacerbating their struggles further. Might be able to sell more NXs if it becomes THE place for Japanese niche titles.
hey just like in real life...
I like how they make you transfer stuff. I just hope it doesn't get too repetitive.
awww its so cute !
That was actually kinda funny
It Looks Better than that Lost and Dummed DLC for the Xbox
Ha Ha
