Anybody that knows about the technical side of the DS, is there any real way to make a giant overworld 3D GTA on the DS's hardware without it turning into muddy garbage?

Personally I say they make it into a 2D with depth beat 'em up like Streets of Rage.

By the way, where is Chinatown supposed to be in relation to the GTA universe? I don't remember seeing a Chinatown in GTA IV, and that would be the most logical location would be to have it in Liberty City.

 

Because "Chinatown" in the name doesn't indicate an area smaller than other GTA game...

Actually, it does.

Well every GTA that has had a name other than a number has been named after the area it takes place in, like San Andreas, Vice City and London. If it takes place in Liberty City, then fine. I just wonder why they would place it again in Liberty City right after IV was released. It's going to make the DS version absolutely embarassing in comparison. I also asked because Rockstar renames all the areas they rip off of and Chinatown is a real location in New York City. It just confused me a bit is all.

I don't like the direction of having the DS try and squeeze out a monster of a game like Grand Theft Auto in full blown 3D. It's already a pretty ugly franchise on PSP, as previously mentioned, and DS isn't anywhere near as popular. Maybe they can cartoon the models up like Ubisoft is doing with Prince of Persia DS.
