The iPhone 3GS

The iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad are a series of multimedia devices created by Apple. The devices are quite similar: the largest difference between the first two is the telephone functionality of the former, while the iPad can be described as a tablet-sized iPod Touch. Only one Grand Theft Auto game, Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars, is available for either device, having been re-released due to relatively poor sales of the original Nintendo DS version of the game.

Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars

GTA Chinatown Wars was quietly released onto the App Store at midnight on January 18th, 2010. The game features the same missions avaliable for the Nintendo DS and PSP versions. One difference is the lack of Rockstar Games Social Club - the bonus Xin missions, which were previously only avaliable after completing the main story line, locating the two Lions of Fo and syncing the device to Social Club, are now avaliable without the use of Social Club. A new radio station allowed players to use a custom radio tracklist from their iTunes. This version features the enhanced graphics of the PSP version released after the DS iteration, but re-introduces the touch screen functionality of the DS, replacing the quicktime events suplemented in the PSP port.

On September 9th, 2010, a version of game with enhanced graphics (dubbed Chinatown Wars HD) was released for use on the iPad.
