I always thought Ling died just a bit too soon in the game; she could've been a pretty neat character otherwise, and perhaps be more motivation for the main character. This was one of my favorite games back when I was little and the only decent GTA for me because I hadn't heard of other GTA games other than this and GTA III but other than that great mission walkthrough for it. Gtaboom says GTA Chinatown Wars is so good but underrated! It is true that it is in top view, but it is still in 3D!

I have this game, it's not toned down a bit for the DS...at least not in the content.  Obviously the DS has some weaknesses but those are hardly evident in this game.  It uses the DS' unique strengths to the fullest...hotwiring cars with the stylus is fun as hell.

I definitely recommend it if you have a DS.

GTA:CW looks pretty fun, although I'm not sure how "open world" it could be, however at some point I might give it a try.

And, the internet task force doesn't have time to clean up the drug infested streets of Chinatown...they're hunting perverts over in Animal Crossing with Dateline.

I really like the music & how he "approach(ed) the dealer."

I'll get this some time, but it's not high on my list.

Cool music.

I've been looking to polish up my drug dealing skills. With my DS, not only can I learn how to cook, practice my driving theory, learn a new language, and improve my mental arithmetic skills, but now I can learn how to cut coke!

I had no idea this game had such in-depth drug-dealing mechanics. Now I have to get a DS again.

That's odd. Usually Rockstar doesn't make trailers that detail the criminal activities you participate in. Oh well. I bet the media will have a fit. As usual.

Wow, that was hilarious watching someone cut open the inside of a car door and finding a bag of heroin.
