Did YOU Pirate GTA Chinatown Wars? | Slope's Game Room
Grand Theft Auto Chinatown Wars is often forgotten, but it remains an utterly fantastic Nintendo DS spin-off from the main series. With over 800,000 lines of code, it is the most complex DS game ever released! But according to Take-Two, it failed to meet sales expectations because the system was too easy to pirate for—completely ignoring the fact that the console's main demographic was children. Did you play it on the DS, or did you wait for the PSP port? Let me know in the comments!
