If you don’t want to do any main quests, you can take part in some of the side quests. Although changing clothes is a small part of the game, you would probably never notice this option if it wasn’t necessary for some missions. She cannot change specific body parts, instead she chooses between entire outfits. Toni can change clothes, and there are some good options. All stat-boosting skills are gone, but not much is missing. It’s only missed when you fall off a cliff into the water, as you could swim to the side and get out. Implemented in San Andreas, this feature is absent. The controls feel very complicated at times and can be frustrating when you need to quickly target things.Īdding to the “Toni can’t” list is the ability to swim. Of course, the PSP has fewer buttons than the PS2 controller, so condensing everything down was no easy task. The directional buttons are used to switch weapons and start various side quests. You use the little analog style stick to control Toni and the vehicles. Foot controls have been drastically changed. Sports cars have great speeds and handling, and slow cars have reduced cornering ability. However, it is a quick way to get from one island to another, and you can keep your car. It’s basically a slow boat ride and you can’t drive the boat. The police still have helicopters following you, so be careful.Ī new mode of transportation is the ferry. Why there are no planes to fly is confusing. It really feels like a missing factor, although in one of the missions it is possible to steal a helicopter, so the physics and controls are still technically in the game. This time there is no Dodo, no helicopters, no planes at all. The Dodo was a plane from GTA III that was located in the airport, which you could fly, or at least try to. Ship handling is slow and not fun to drive. It’s not as much fun as it sounds, and it never has been in any of the GTA games. As you progress through the game, you will also have the opportunity to ride boats. There are no bikes in the game, which was a nice addition to San Andreas. Motorcycles are generally faster and have better handling than cars, and make it easier to pull off single jumps and such. You can also have motorcycles, which have never been seen in Liberty City before. Veterans will remember Patriot, Cheetah, Infernus, Banshee, etc., although some have redesigns that look more modern. Vehicles in the game are again similar to previous versions. You are 1 star at the beginning, and if you keep blowing things up, it will eventually increase to 6 stars, and you will have the army behind you. Cops are divided into levels with the usual system. The cops are still around, so if you blow up too many heads, it will annoy you a bit. Or, if you want to deal damage from a distance, use a grenade or Molotov cocktail. You will also have melee weapons like knives and baseball bats. You can also collect various weapons, from pistols and UZIs to rocket launchers, flamethrowers and sniper rifles. If you choose not to, you can freely roam the city, wreaking havoc or just exploring. Whether or not you choose to participate in a mission is up to you. There is no free roam mode, in fact there are no modes, the game just loads when you turn it on. You may find yourself playing it over and over again and rarely get tired of it. It’s a nice incentive to complete the missions, but for people who have played GTA III, there’s nothing really new.Īlthough the game is focused on quests, the ability to move around freely is really great. There are three islands in total, and you unlock them over time. Once you’ve completed enough quests, you’ll move on to the second island in Liberty City. You’ll go to a guy on your map, he’ll give you a quest that usually involves killing someone, and you’ll get paid once you’re done. The basic story mode consists of missions that tend to get repetitive. Unlike in GTA III, he can talk, which makes cutscenes better. You play as Toni Cipriani, a no-nonsense guy who’s willing to do anything and take out anyone in his path. A new city to explore would have been much better. Having said that, the only real changes are the stores, which have different names and styles, which is quite disappointing. Rockstar Leeds just turned the city into UMD and changed a few things to make it look more modern as the LCS is set after III. The game takes place, as the title suggests, in Liberty City, which is the city in which Grand Theft Auto III (the first 3D game in the series) is also set. The popular GTA series had to come to the PSP sooner or later, and its debut on the PSP is great. Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories was hailed as the “killer PSP game”.
