    oh back to comparing which device this game is best on.

    i'd say ipod because the controls are perfect for it. it's like it was meant to be on a touch screen.

    It kind of was, it was originally made for DS, hence all the touch mini-games and such :p.

    It is inappropriate. It's a mature rated game.

    Some of the best things about this game are the side-missions. The go-kart missions are particularly a blast to play.

    I disagree, While the minigames are perfect for the iPhone, the general controls are nowhere near as good as the psp controls. For perfect controls I believe you need physical buttons. Therefore since the DS has both touchscreen and buttons, It would have to receive the best control award.

    Yeah, something is definitely up, the custom station was playing songs randomly again when I played earlier.

    I'm not sure why, I think that my GTA playlist is bugged on the iPod. What the iPod itself displays is about 20 songs short and randomized from the songs that are displayed when I sync it with iTunes, and I wonder if that is affecting GTA and making it choose songs from my entire iPod library.



    It's a good thing.

    And on a note on the controls, since I see people complaining a lot. I think they work really well, I've been able to play the game almost exactly as I would play it on a console. At least in regards to driving. Walking around is kind of a pain especially when there's a ton of stuff going on (Thinking the Raw Deal mission which took me like 6 tries), but I think that's mostly a perspective issue.

    I think they did a good job on this in that regard.

    It plays your "On the Go" list?

    That is wierd.

    It works exactly as it should, I mean, you get in a car, it plays the music. You get out, music stops. All the ambient sounds are there, so I'm not just playing music through the iPod over the GTA app.

    But I'll take it.

    I disagree, I was playing the game on my friends DS, and I was spazzing out everywhere, smashing into things, and generally failing... (I played for a while to, long enough to get used to the controls)

    Bought the iPod one anyway, and I have no problems with the controls.
