Summary: Finally a real game for PSP.

Since the PSP came out, every single game I've checked out that have been out for ps2 and other systems has been modified, trimmed, and remade in so many ways to make it a different experience from its console cousins. Why??? Finally we have a game that in no way is a limited version of the console game. This game is awesome. I played Liberty and Vice City but never had the chance to complete either of them, because I would spend too much time at home on the couch, achieving nothing. Now I can play this game whenever I feel like it, and now I love my PSP again.

Bugs
The first thing I want to address is the issue with bugs. Get over it, the game is done and complete, and so far I've never played a game in my entire life that didn't have a bug or two. This game has its glitches but all of the GTAs did so what's new, the game still rocks.

Sound
The audio in this game is absolutely amazing. I love the soundtrack, the radio stations are entertaining in true GTA style, and the driving around the city with the radio off leaves me feeling like I'm in a virtual world.

Graphics
Visually the game is on par with Vice City in my opinion, and for some reason it looks so much cooler on the little big screen. I noticed a framerate drop or two when the cops are on my tail, but nothing to cry about, less than a second at the most.

Controls
Now if I thought I could do a better job, or if I saw a game that has done a better job on the controls I would complain, but apart from looking around being annoying, the controls are actually smooth and responsive. The analog nub is annoying when trying to make slight adjustments while driving but its not that bad. I feel like I'm making excuses for the controls, but seriously, unless you're a big baby, it's not a big deal, and I'm getting better every minute.

My personal feeling is this is the most complete game experience for the PSP. This game has always rocked and continues to rock on the PSP.
