^^ Or both versions will get played up to their strengths, with everyone coming away happy. I'm going to be very optimistic on this and even call it the best thing to happen to the GTA franchise for gamers. The ensured continuation of the best GTA games on both handhelds.

The PSP doesn't have any strengths in regards to control in comparison to the DS. The DS has a D-Pad, four face buttons and two shoulder buttons, just like the PSP does. The only thing the PSP has in addition is the analog nub, and I don't see how that will make much of a difference. A future sequel has to figure out how to take what is on two different DS screens and conform that to a single PSP screen, plus find a way to make minigames fun both by traditional controls and touch controls.

I just don't see them being successful with both versions. One is going to turn out worse.

I mean what strengths do you feel the PSP has that a future game could get played up to?

 

 

 

     Are you speaking generally about the systems or specifically about how China Town Wars would be affected?  I don't even own a PSP, but it seems extreme to say the analog nub doesn't make much of a difference.  Echoes of Time on the DS (it's a great multiplayer game, if you haven't tried it) would be so much better if you could use an analog stick and not an icky DS Lite d-pad!
