GTA3 on mobile devices 15th Dec. £2.99

[Alpherah]

Amazing how much mobile gaming has come on although its only the PS2 port not the PC but still.

Supported devices:

Apple iOS Devices: iPad 1 and iPhone 4 (Low res), iPad 2 and iPhone 4s (high res), iPod touch 4th Generation
Android Phones: HTC Rezound, LG Optimus 2x, Motorola Atrix 4G, Motorola Droid X2, Motorola Photon 4G, Samsung Galaxy R, T-Mobile G2x
Android Tablets: Acer Iconia, Asus Eee Pad Transformer, Dell Streak 7, LG Optimus Pad, Motorola Xoom, Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 and 10.1, Sony Tablet S, Toshiba Thrive


Apparently it might work on other non listed Android devices, but its untested across all the different resolutions so might look odd.

Proper GTA 3? Really?

 

[godinman]

I'd prefer the old style tbh, or at least have the old 2d style released...

If it's going to work on other handsets it will be anything dual core based by the look of it (well, for a decent experience) The best GPU on a solo core was the... xperia play/SGS1? I guess these might be worth a try but I'd let someone else try it on youtube first.

Bit surprised the S2 is missing from the list, kinda odd considering it sold extremely well even in good ol' yankland. Screenshots look pretty boss

Proper GTA 3? Really?

Apparently its a straight port of the PS2 version, so yes

 

[Robbo]

Christ, this is going to be good.

Wow ! Here's hoping the Xperia Play gets some love....

It will be made to work one way or another I imagine.

 

[Tunney]

Can't imagine the controls working well. Great technical achievement though.

 

[KIA]

Please release a demo!

 

[Steve_bullockuk]

Cannot wait for this. Hopefully Vice City will come out eventually. That would be epic.

 

[jonneymendoza]

Looks good but seriously needs proper game controllers. not that touch screen dpad crap

 

[Billythekid]

looks good but mobile gaming will never really "TAKE OFF" if u know what i mean, they wont be advertising only on mobile any time soon really.

I mean how do you play GTA on a mobile

 

[benjo]

Read on XDA that if your phone isn't supported, you should just be able to run it with Chainfire

Mobile gaming already has taken off, on iOS devices anyway. There actually has been the odd iPhone game released with TV commercials over in the US now.

GTA: Chinatown Wars was already ported to iPhone almost 2 years ago. But I do agree that games like this are generally not suited to touchscreen devices.

Still, it's quite a technical accomplishment.

 

[Skidder]

anyone know if this will work with wii mote or similar (wiimote works fine with my transformer)? no like on screen

 

[MikeHunt79]

Sweet, I'm glad the iPad 1 is supported despite being a rather old device compared to the rest of the stuff on that list.

Also £2.99 seems pretty reasonable, I was expecting it to be at least £4.99 or more.

 

[KIA]

It's out.

 

[Robbo]

Downloading it for iOS now (4S and iPad2).

yea its not really good on a touch screen. i think ps vita is ideal for this but i think GTA4 will appear on that instead
