Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories is the first of the "Stories" series where you play in Liberty City as Toni Cipriani. It was originally released on the PlayStation Portable (PSP) but was ported to the PlayStation 2 in the following year.

General Info

Going back to Liberty City on the PlayStation 2, and also for the first time, on the PSP, you play as Toni Cipriani returning after hiding for shooting a made man. In this iteration, you take missions from many personalities, such as Don Salvatore Leone, his wife, JD O'Toole, Vincenzo Cilli, etc. The events in this game take place 3 years before the events of Grand Theft Auto III, in 1998, with Toni Cipriani back as the lead roll.

A great feature with this game is the environments, huge immersive places to be. And you would think that with these environments the game must have a very low frame rate. Surprisingly the whole game is just fluid and absolutely amazing. The PSP takes this title and shows off just what this system can really do. Another thing I really like about the PSP is the feature of just switching off the power and starting back right where you left it. GTA also uses this; you can be in the middle of a mission switch off the system, turn it back on and return to exactly what you were doing, nothing changed. Gameplay is truly immersive and fun. GTA takes the handheld third person franchise to another level with this great title.

Banning Motorcycles

Rockstar must've had a tough time coming up with a way to explain why there are motorcycles in Liberty City Stories but not in Grand Theft Auto III, even though LCS takes place before GTA3. They solved this with a fictional campaign in Liberty City that is for the banning of motorcycles in Liberty City, saying they're too dangerous.
