Chinatown Wars Pre-Launch Sampling Tour

[Chris 246]

Rockstar Games have announced they'll be going on tour across the US hosting Chinatown Wars hands-on experiences at hundreds of GameStop stores. As well as playing the game you'll also get to take home some rare GTA swag!

The tour will last for 6 weeks and take place across 52 US cities, using 3 special Rockstar vans. See the Chinatown Wars tour page for the full details and to see when R* will be at your local store.

Still not sure whether you want to get it? If you missed our own hands-on last week, why don't you give that a read, might help sway your decision.

Very cool. Too bad they skipped over NC or I'd go =( I love how there is about a million locations over California, haha.

Ugh it's like 45 minutes away...

400 Cochituate Rd

Framingham, MA 01701

Aww, nothing for Canada It would be pretty cool to play the game early and get some GTA stuff (so Chris won't be the only one with it) along with it.

But not in Humboldt County, which is where I live. :/ Anywho, REM if you go you gots to give detailzzz. =P

Twenty locations in California, yet only four in Florida and no Orlando? Fuck that shit. They are being douches to certain states

[Chris 246]

Doesn't California have like a trillion people though, whereas all other states are smaller or some shit? Maybe they did it per population or something.

I like how there isn't a single location near any of our members, anyone reckon they'll actually be able to attend one of these? I seriously urge you to go if you are able to, it'll be worth it. You'll probably be able to see everything me and the other webmasters did in our hands-on... maybe even more since you'll obviously be playing a later build.

[TrialByFire 10]

Lol, you would have thought they would have an even spread...

No, they really fucked up the tour if you ask me. You'd think they'd know America a little better than that.... Being a big company and all.

damn thats retarded no locations in las vegas NV or Reno NV very uncool

[rappo 2]

I live next to several of those (Huntington Beach, Torrance, and Santa Monica) but they are on weekdays and I can't make it out to those spots during the week

Also I think their locations are fine. California is the most populated state in all of America, obviously they are going to have more events there...

Notice how Texas has the second most amount of events? Know how Texas is the second most populated state in America? Yeeeeah, things are coming together!

When did this come up. I was looking at the areas near my city.

Take for example this:

2/23 GameStop- Lincoln Plaza

535 Lincoln St

Worcester, MA 01605

On the left of it you can see the date said February 23. Its right now the 25th, does that mean the chance to play the game is over? Plz reply. Thanks

[Chris 246]

Yep, it's only on the day specified.

When they announced this tour (not long before we posted about it) there were already some dates already gone by which is a bit strange.

[Blur 13]

Thats teribble news for me. Cant believe I was a 20 min. drive away and I miss the damn date. *slams keyboard*. Was really looking forward to getting to play GTA CW and get those free R* goodies and apparel.
