I just bought this last week, off amazon!!! CRAP!!!!!
Amazon is amazing for stuff like that! Thankfully, the game is worth whatever price. Sometimes, Amazon will send the pre-order bonuses with games that have been out for a while. I bought Eternal Poison from their Deal of the Day recently and it came with the bonus art book! Happened other times with various games, also.
"I picked up GTA: CTW three days ago. I think I've put like 15-20 hours in already. This is the best game on DS, and may very well be the best game on a handheld this generation ( i don't own a PSP, so have only played select portions of a few games).
And this is not hyperbole: this game is better than GTA4. Feel free to disagree, but this game brought back everything about GTA that I loved. GTA4 was so dull. if you weren't moved by the storyline (sorry Gerstmann et al., whatever connection you all felt with certain characters in the game was completely lost on me), then GTA4 was a weak third person shooter with excellent driving elements. There was little reason to explore, because there were no hidden side missions and the 200 birds were annoying to have to hunt down.Chinatown Wars is plain FUN. And my God, I don't know what savants at Rockstar were working on this game, but the graphics are so far ahead of any other DS game that it makes me wonder if they somehow snuck a graphics chip into the DS cartridge."
Agreed! I stopped pretty early on with GTA IV. It just didn't click for me and I loved the previous GTAs (minus the GBA one I never played). Chinatown Wars is my new The World Ends With You.
Some great games, but I wish they would space it out. Last year, bought tons of games in a short period (Bionic Commando, Braid, etc) and then a few months of "meh" titles. If I wasn't so impatient, I guess this wouldn't be a problem. :)
