If you head over to the GTA Chinatown Wars website it says it will be available Fall 2009 for iPhone & iPod Touch.

Who plans on getting this for Touch/iPhone when it comes out? I probably will because I'm dying to play an official GTA game on my Touch.

Yep probably will! Any screenshots of it on an iPhone / iPod Touch device yet? Interesting to see if it's any better than the DS version. I expect some changes because of the different resolutions of the devices.

I haven't saw screenshots yet but I would imagine it would look similar to the DS version.

I will be, hoping the price will be ?5.99 max.

I really liked Chinatown Wars on the DS, just never got round to playing it much:wacko::

Haha, don't hold your breath. The DS version was ?30, the PSP version will probably be around ?20-?30, and now they're remaking it again for another different format. I'm guessing it's going to be ?15, maybe even ?20. Most definitely not unde:p?10 :p

Also, why do people think it'll look as good as the DS version? It'll look -at least- as good as the PSP version, if not better. The iPhone has double the processing speed and quadruple the amount of available RAM as the PSP, I have a funny feeling they may boost the visuals a little.

I'm not sure what the price will be tbh, Madden 10 is only ?5.99, and most EA games are less than ?3 now.

Perhaps Chinatown will be worthy of the higher price, if its a full game, slightly worried about the controls though.

Does it not lack slightly in the 3D processing section though? Whilst Chinatown Wars isn't a graphical powerhouse of a game, it was rather impressive on the DS :) I think it may struggle to reach PSP standards, but certainly should manage DS.

I'm impressed :-) Is that just a 3Gs game or all of the Touch/iPhone models?

Sadly though I think tilting a device is a pretty naff way of controlling things when you are also trying to see what's happening on it.

Not sure about original models but definitely works on the 3G. Also, lots of different control methods, I personally like to hold the left half of the screen to turn left, right to go right and depending on where my finger is vertically = accelerate or decelerate from memory but haven't played the game in weeks.

Standard 3g that is. I can't afford a 3gs :( That was when i first got the game, now I don't bother with the tilt, you can touch each side to steer.

Well the DS version is... so why wouldn't the PSP one be? :p

Here are some screenshots of the PSP version

/snip

I expect the iPhone version to look very similar to these :p

Looks nice, will be picking up on the PSP on release :)

    • Snap Inc. launches new SPECS augmented reality glasses (for 'just' $2,195)

      Snap Inc. launches new SPECS augmented reality glasses (for 'just' $2,195) by Aditya Tiwari Image: Snap Inc. Smartglasses powered by augmented reality are the latest fashion because the smartphone market is slowly reaching saturation. Snap Inc. announced its latest AR-powered smartglasses, called SPECS, that aim to strike a middle ground between underpowered AI glasses and heavy headsets you can't wear all the time. Available in two sizes, Snap SPECS are made from high-performance Swiss TR90 polymer and feature removable inserts to support prescription lenses. Its 47mm model weighs about 132g; the bigger 52mm model weighs 136g. Snap Inc has been spreading the word about the new glasses for a while now. Earlier this year, it even spun off its smart glasses team into a subsidiary called Specs Inc. Its proprietary LCOS (Liquid Crystal on Silicon) display delivers a 51-degree field of view and 16 million colors. Snap says the device gives the feel of a 24-inch desktop monitor when you're working, and of a 115-inch home cinema screen placed about 10 feet away when watching a movie. A pair of custom stereo speakers and 6x high-SNR MEMS microphones are built into the temples of the smartglasses to deliver open-ear audio while you cast a screen, stream content, open a whiteboard, or collaborate with others. Snap Inc. patted itself on the back, saying the smartglasses don't need tethering or a puck to connect to a computer. Under the hood, SPECS draw its power from two Snapdragon processors: one for computer vision and another for running Lenses. The device supports fast hand tracking, low latency, and responsive interactions that help digital content feel anchored in the real world, according to the company, which claims that SPECS can "deliver 7-millisecond motion-to-photon latency." The smartglasses offer up to four hours of battery life on a single charge while providing AI assistance, Bluetooth notifications, Lenses, audio/video playback, and more. The battery life could jump to 20 hours of mixed use when the charging case is included. Image: Snap Inc. You can view and interact with AR Lenses anchored directly to the physical world around you, and an on-board AI assistant uses the camera to see what's around to answer questions or provide real-time help with tasks. Snap Inc. noted that it filed more than 7,000 patents during the development of SPECS. It's trying to build the required digital ecosystem around the smartglasses, and said that developers have already published hundreds of Lenses for SPECS. Moreover, their electrochromic lenses use the same technology available in Boeing 787 Dreamliner windows, enabling them to shift from clear to tinted in just 10 seconds when you walk out of your house. Snap SPECS are now available for pre-order on the official website with a $2,195 price tag ($200 refundable deposit). The smartglasses are expected to ship in the US, UK, and France during the Fall this year.

      Sound Booster 1.13 Build 575 by Razvan Serea Increase volume on your laptop. Boost the volume of even very quiet speakers. Raise volume above maximum. Letasoft Sound Booster can be used as an extra amplifier when the volume of the program you are listening to is too low for comfortable listening and you feel that your PC’s speakers can produce a louder sound. This can be the case when the audio or video has been recorded at the level below normal. Or, for example, when the other person’s microphone you are talking to on Skype, is not working properly. There can be a plenty of other reasons why the sound is being too quiet and there is not much you can do about it except buy external speakers. Sound of any application that is being played in the system can be amplified up to 500%. Letasoft Sound Booster can raise volume of programs like web browsers, on-line communication software (Teams, Discord, Zoom), any kind of media player or games. Simply put, volume of virtually any program that can play any sound in PC, can be boosted to a comfortable level with Letasoft Sound Booster. You can control current volume with the pop-up slider from the system tray. Alternatively, you can assign system-wide hot keys for increasing and decreasing, and use them when you need to adjust volume Letasoft Sound Booster constantly monitors current gain level and prevents samples from clipping, thus reducing all major sound distortions.

    • Bose Ultra Open Earbuds are once again selling at their lowest price

      I own these and the normal QuietComfort ones from Bose. The QC are amazing and I want to love these, but for the life of me, I have a terrible time getting them attached to my ears.
