Chris Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Spanish magazine Hispana has an array of new details regarding GTA Chinatown Wars. This is the same magazine that gave us details that the map would comprise of something similar to GTA IV - Dukes, Bohan, Broker, and Algonquin would be included, but Alderney would be left out. More details have arisen today following further translations of the magazine. Camera can swivel 360 degrees Trains will pass overhead in the city, cars will circle, pedestrians will be walking, etc. GPS seen on the touch screen while you move through the city PDA allows you to gain access to the map with more details as well as the goals of missions You can mark points that you want and the GPS will always tell you the shortest legal route to the destination with yellow or blue arrows New discoveries (such as gas stations) are added to the map Top screen brings you all the action, while the lower screen will let you control elements like the PDA, GPS, the radio, access to the people on the map, or using Motolov cocktails and grenades. Drugs have a big importance in the game Drug system can be compared to Drugwars You have to control the stock of drugs, buy them in one neighborhood and sell them in another - Good way to make money in the game You are given a map so that you know what people demand and at what prices Like other GTA games, in Chinatown Wars, you can catch a taxi - whistle into the microphone so the taxi will stop On a related note that I forgot to mention in the GTA IV DLC delay news, Chinatown Wars has in fact been delayed as well and will not be out in time for Christmas. Instead, we can expect to see it released by the first half of the fiscal year, which ends in April. Our Chinatown Wars section is now open. You can now browse the latest news, features, screenshots and artwork. Source: Nintendo Everything Thanks Evo for the heads up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustADummy Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Like other GTA games, in Chinatown Wars, you can catch a taxi - whistle into the microphone so the taxi will stop I wouldn't say "Like other GTA Games", AFAIK only in GTA IV you can call a taxi. But nice to see new info! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

claude-5 Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 [*]Like other GTA games, in Chinatown Wars, you can catch a taxi - whistle into the microphone so the taxi will stop umm, i cant whistle, how will i catch a taxi :S, that plays a big importance 2 me in IV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvoLuTioN Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 (edited) You can mark points that you want and the GPS will always tell you the shortest legal route to the destination with yellow or blue arrows Somewhere deep inside I always wanted that, I don't know if its been done in Gta4. Its good that Rockstar are concentrating on the quality of the game and not on the release date and giving out a rushed version even though its not a major title. Thanks Evo for the heads up. Awsum.
