Spoilers for all HD Universe entries of the Grand Theft Auto series preceding this one, including Grand Theft Auto IV, The Lost and Damned, and The Ballad of Gay Tony will be left unmarked. You Have Been Warned!A 2009 game originally an exclusive for the Nintendo DS (though later ported to PSP, iOS, and Android), this is the tenth game in Rockstar's Grand Theft Auto series and the first original title to appear on a Nintendo console since the release of Grand Theft Auto Advance on the Game Boy Advance.Huang Lee, the spoiled son of a recently murdered Triad boss, arrives by plane in GTA4's Liberty City with Yu Jian, a sword that Huang's father won in a poker game and has decided to use as an heirloom to deliver it to the new patriarch of the family, Huang's uncle Wu "Kenny" Lee. Shortly after landing, Huang's escorts are killed by assassins and he is shot and kidnapped. The assailants steal the sword and, thinking Huang is dead, dump his body in the water. Huang manages to survive and informs Kenny that Yu Jian has been taken. Kenny explains that he had intended to offer the sword to Hsin Jaoming, the aging Triad boss in Liberty City, as a means of securing a position as his replacement. Kenny is dishonored and reduced in power due to the loss of Yu Jian, leaving him and Huang working to keep their businesses afloat. What follows is a Gambit Pileup as Huang tries to find the sword, move up in the ranks of the Triads and keep all his body parts intact... something not always easy to do in Liberty City.Instead of the top-down perspective or a view behind the protagonist, Chinatown Wars is unique in the series for its isometric camera perspective. As opposed to the fully rendered aspects of later entries in the series, Chinatown Wars has Cel-Shaded Graphics and comic-book style cut-scenes (though the Cel-Shading was toned down in the PSP version). It also features a number of mini-games that took advantage of the DS's touch-screen interface (replaced by Press X to Not Die in the PSP version.) Also, a large aspect of the game is the Drug-Wars style system of buying and selling various narcotics around the city to build up cash reserves.As an installment, it was almost universally well-received, though the DS and PSP platform's sales were far below expectations. When it was released on the iPhone platform, however, the sales soared to the top of the App Store's charts. |

comment |
Darker and Edgier: While previous titles condemn drugs (III, San Andreas) or make drugs trade conducted by the protagonists implied (Vice City, through the boat checkpoint and "ice cream" selling), Chinatown Wars is the first game that made drug trade explicitly possible for the player, and also the quickest source of easy money for Huang. The story itself returns to the darker tones established by Grand Theft Auto IV after The Ballad of Gay Tony went Lighter and Softer. |

| | Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars (Video Game) / int_973d220f |
comment |
Never My Fault: Chan is the most prominent example. He bosses Huang around just because of his father's influence and blames Huang when things go wrong. Chan wants Huang to steal three vehicles for a street race. Then he cheats by asking Huang to sabotage one of them and hindering his competition without crediting Huang. When this gets Chan kidnapped in the next mission, Huang rescues him, but is blatantly accused of just following his orders. Another mission from Chan has him agree to meet with known enemies of the Triads. Shockingly, it turns out to be a trap. Huang pulls him out of this mess, yet Hsin falls for Chan's narrative and believes Huang is responsible. Mel Mallard ends up blaming her betrayal of Chan on Huang's Jerkass Has a Point comments. In a rare moment of competence, Chan doesn't buy it. A downloadable post-game mission has Ling's brother blame Huang for her death early on in the game. Huang responds by claiming it was the guy's fault for not being there to protect her. One where the blame doesn't get shifted on Huang for once: Hsin blames his son Chan being such a failure on his mother's upbringing. For the record, Hsin was too much of a nepotist to some extent. |

comment |
Too Dumb to Live: Chan. He is always either drunk or on drugs (or both), which leads to him making poor decisions throughout the game. He ends up getting framed for treason by Kenny, resulting in his own father ordering Huang to kill him. The reporter Melanie Mallard decides to betray the ruthless gangsters she was working with by revealing their faces on TV because she was angry Huang insulted her and called out her hypocrisy. Chan kills her in return. |

Demoted to Extra: The Russian Mafia, Yardies, Lost MC and Hustlers return, but are far less important to the story. The Lost appear in a few of Lester's missions solely to get killed by Huang, the Yardies appear primarily to be gunned down by Zhou Ming (and have their business disrupted by Huang on behalf of Melanie Mallard in various PSP-exclusive missions), the Russians only appear in a PSP-exclusive mission, and the Hustlers have no bearing on the plot at all. |

After disposing of them, Wade emails him and confirms that they were telling the truth. However, the former is a sociopath who cut the heart out of a man over a dispute, and the latter is a pedophile who films underage girls in the locker rooms so neither death is a tragedy. |

Of course you can explore Liberty City and do side quests as long as you please and Hsin won't place a hit on Huang until the plot demands it (though, storywise, he does give him more time at one point) |

Medal of Dishonor: The Wooden Spoon is "awarded" for making a $500 loss in a single drug deal. It's harder than it sounds, since it requires you to either get lucky with a drug dealer's inventory (so that you can buy enough expensive stuff from him and sell it back) or to travel between a dealer that sells high and one that buys low. |

Sniper Rifle: Unlike past Grand Theft Auto games, sniper rifles are only usable in select missions, and its design is different in every version: In promotional material, it's either a H&K SR9T or an SR-25. In the DS version, it's a Sako TRG. In every other version, it's an odd AWM/M82A1 hybrid. The HUD icon resembles the Carbine Rifle, which is a Super-Deformed M16A2/AR-10 hybrid in Chinatown Wars. |

However, there's one random encounter in which a hooker you stumble upon assumes this exact thing will happen and (with the assistance of some other hookers) preemptively attacks Huang. He can either fight back or cut and run. |

The smarter Zhou, who ends up in a similar situation, uses the exact same argument. |
