lol, no need to throw a hissy fit about it :lol:
No "hissy fit" what so ever, it's just naive, single viewed people irritate me. You gotta know your stuff before any assumtions come in.

As it stands, another gta > no gta.

No details. All we know is it'll be running on a different engine to GTA4, which means no RAGE graphics or Euphoria physics, which may mean its another top-down shooter like GTA Advance and the classic GTAs, but like I said, we don't know.


Look at the developer for gta advance. Rockstar is developing this game.

GTA isn't a DS game :no:
Not until winter it isn't.
No, the DS is for kiddies games like Mario. If it has to be on a portable platform it should be on the PSP.
PSP got it's shot at GTA. Besides, saying DS is solely for kiddie games is quite sterotypical. DS is funner then PSP cause it's different. If I want to get into a hard core shooting game then I'm gonna play it on my PS3 thanks.
Nintendo also got its shot at GTA.
It's not a stereotype, it's true. What other mature games are there? Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? Brain Training? Sudoku? Right.
"Funner" kind of describes the audience the DS is meant for.
Good for you.
What about these:
Resident Evil: Deadly Silence
Dementium: The Ward
Brothers in Arms DS
Call of Duty 4
Touch the Dead
GoldenEye: Rogue Agent
Ninja Gaiden: Dragon Sword
Assassin's Creed: Altair's Chronicles

There are plenty of people that will buy a GTA for the DS.

they're all stripped-down versions, with explicit content mostly removed. one of gta's best features is its shock value, without that it's quite a dull experience, not to mention most of the gameplay revolves around it.

True it is a different engine, however it would be mad hard to use the existing gta4 engine on a DS game. Though a different engine doesn't mean it won't have "rage graphics". The DS does have it's limit for graphics but they are often underestimated and as more games are made, they seem to improve. A different engine could give us some terrible graphics or bring it back down to drop down view, but Rockstar is developing this one and it's quite certain that it will be a different engine, but not necessarily a bad one.

Further, Nintendo has been trying to reach to a huge audience, not just 'kiddies' as you put it. My whole family enjoy playing it and I think that's a great thing. Just because they haven't all got drugs, rape and alcohol in them, doesn't mean they're for children.

My mom still loves playing the Super nintendo mario games, and she likes playing the mario games on my DS. So, i agree with Woody. Just because it isn't filled with violance and gore, doesn't mean that it is only for children.

You know nothing of which you say. The DS isn't solely for kiddie games. That is just something you've made it into, it wasn't canon to begin with. GTA coming to DS will probably make a considerable profit. I am not against, nor am I for it. I simply just don't care.

No he is right. I wholeheartedly agree with Meltdown. Nintendo have always been the more "party type" gaming with more kid related games like Mario. Even though everyone loves Mario it was aimmed at a young audience really. The N64 was maybe their only platform which had more violent games like Perfect Dark, Turok etc. but Nintendo are known for the fun games just like SSB, Mario's games, Donkey Kong and the DS and the Wii have carried this trait.

That's about it? Also I've seen COD4 on there and its very dummed down. :/

So I'm going to agree, this GTA won't be a big hit for the fact its out on the DS. :/

GTA on the DS seems really annoying to be honest, the touch screen is fun with platform games etc. but it would just seem hard and repetitive with GTA.

Edit: You know what, who the **** cares? It's for the DS and not for another system. Don't *****, be happy. All the other platforms got GTA, so don't be greedy and let the DS have it, shitty or not.
Now to get back on topic, how do you guys think it's going to work, control scheme wise and how will it use the TC?

You have reaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaal anger issues. No one is being greedy at all, it's not going to be a good game though. Enjoy it though. :/
