Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars is an entirely original entry into the critically acclaimed Grand Theft Auto series, and brings a new level of interactivity to the world of Liberty City.

Game Informer magazine wrote, "Working on a smaller platform isn't stopping Rockstar from thinking big. Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars commandeers the Nintendo DS to deliver the same bombastic mix of humor, violence, and vehicular mayhem found on consoles." IGN.com said, "Believe me...this game is the business."
G4.com wrote, “To call Chinatown Wars feature-laden would be an understatement on par with calling glaciers slow...Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars hits the DS on March 17th and with it comes a whole new rap sheet for Nintendo's handheld…Chinatown Wars looks pretty sick."
Official Nintendo Magazine recently reviewed the game, saying “With the arrival of Chinatown Wars, the DS can now boast a GTA title that's every bit as compelling, impressive and fun to play as its home console cousins.”
Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars for the Nintendo DS is rated M for Mature by the ESRB. For more information, please visit www.rockstargames.com/chinatownwars.
