As of right now, only the title has been released, and that it has a own game play. What are your thougthts of how the game will be? What use will the dual Screen have?

I have a feeling its going to be a birds eye view game, like the original GTA. The touch Screen is going to use to select items to use in missions.  With Text no voice acting. Perhaps some wi-fi for some type of exclusive stufff.

Yeah I agree, not very excitied

I predict it will be something similar to Zelda / Animal Crossing in terms of birds eye view but with 3D graphics.

I hope it isn't like the original GTA games with the 2D, since I can't really play those anymore after experiencing the 3D GTA games. It might like the mini-game in Liberty City Stories that was a parody of Smash TV, where the graphics were the same, but it was sort of above-head, and the camera was at like a 45 degree angle from the ground. That would be fine with me.

The shooting and every thing will be touch
and small wifi games is my guess

I dont know, the DS isnt really capable of powering a good  3D game, the hardware just isnt there.  I would rather see a new version of GTA II.  I know the 2D may seem outdated, but a bad 3D game would suck too.  I spent a lot of time on the 2D games and I can say that they are definatly better than the PSP games."

Bottom screen blimp view and top 3-D. That should be it.

some type of 3d would be cool, but i agree that I much rather have a good  2d GTA game, then a bad fancy graphic one.

i think it's going to be 2d because they already have the 3D ones on the PSP

I'm sure it will put a smile on are faces because Nintendo simply brings more smiles to more faces.

Alrightttttttttttttttttttttttt!

It SHOULD be 2D, but high quality 2D. The DS' 3D blows ass.

i just can't wait to see what they're gonna do with it

Is rockstar even going to develop this?
Unless they somehow get the GTA formula to work on the DS i think this game will tank

It looks interesting, Rock Star tells good stories so I am looking forward to it.

They mentioned a new graphics engine in the conference, so I'm thinking it will be 3D.

3D GTA on DS = bad

Top down GTA on DS = good.

I imagine it will be in bird's eye view with some low 3d graphics.  I'm not really expecting much out of it, so if its any good I can be pleasantly surprised.

I understand that 2D is the most likely choice they're going to make. That having been said, I never liked the 2D GTA games, so I hope they come up with a 3D engine (one that looks N64-era, but 3D nonetheless) that will not suck.

It's gonna have to be a throw back to GTA2, i dont mind that will be cool but the only problem im having, is how they will implament the stylus.

At first I was really worried because of the previous hardcore attempts on the DS: Burnout & Resident Evil both legendary fails on the DS.

But after seeing what they're doing with it, this could be just as (relatively) good as any other GTA. They aren't trying to cram a ps2 style GTA onto the DS. That would've been a disaster. The style is classic (though updated; 3D version of the 2D style) for GTA and will work on the DS. The minigames look like they were also built with mobile gamers in mind. They even recreated my favorite cell phone game of all time: Dope Wars.
This could very well end up being the best hardcore DS game if they're able to keep with the ingenuity and keep within the limits.

looks like crap! jk. doesn't look GREAT though.
