"All i've seen in the thread (not necessarily from you) has been excuses (for both DS and PSP versions)."
How is it an excuse that the highest selling top-down GTA game has sold less than the lowest selling full 3D GTA game? Those are cold, hard numbers. Claiming that it's terrible to sell about a third as much as its closest proper game is the real excuse.
GTA did not become the top tier series with top down gameplay. There was no way this game was going to sell numbers even as high as LCS.
A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.
