One of the most dynamic PC games to hit the market has been the franchise of Grand Theft Auto. It has literally started the genre and lifted it in new heights that were unimaginable just a few years ago. Will the same feel result from the incarnation of this grand franchise in the iPad? Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown is the newest addition to one of the most popular PC games ever created. The question left to be answered is: Does it live up to its notoriety and fancy the hearts of action purists and casual gamers alike? To learn more about this game and how it performs with the iPad, continue reading and discover our take on it.
This game has been originally released for the DS and with the addition of HD graphics, Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown promises a whole new experience with iPad’s superb graphics and screen area. The game’s plot surrounds the life and times of a murdered triad boss’s son who engages Liberty City and gets introduced to the swirls and twists culminating a grand scheme! All the action and tasks that made the GTA franchise successful is present here. In addition to that, there are several mini games to keep you busy in particular is one challenging mini game called molotov cocktail filling. It will grant you a few hours or fun and challenging tasks that will help you progress through the game itself. For purists, the non-traditional top down view of the game is a welcome feature and goes back to the old school GTA games. But do not be led to think that this feature may potentially spoil the fun because the cell shaded characters bring great eye candy to any gamer out there. Thanks to the terrific hardware power of the iPad this game truly maximizes the polygon count and lighting effects utilized to bring about a level of depth that can convert casual gamers to full time enthusiasts.
Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown
The game, even though it is just a port was made to feel at home in the iPad. The integration of touch screen features made it well into the game. The game however, is still a mature title that should not find its way into your kid’s collection. The suggestive themes and violence call for an adult rating. But this isn’t new coming from its manufacturer Rockstar Games. Shoving this aside, Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown has made its way into the iPad and what a treat it is for all gamers alike.
