The PlayStation Portable, or PSP, is a handheld games console made by Sony. It was launched in Japan on December 12, 2004, and debuted in North America on March 24, 2005. The computing power of the PSP is comparable to that between the PlayStation and PlayStation 2, being capable of rendering significantly complex 3D graphics to a less detailed extent than the PS2.
The PSP is the native platform for two Grand Theft Auto games, Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories and Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories, which both recycled settings in two PS2-native games but are able to retain many features of its more higher-spec counterparts at the expense of lower texture quality and resolution. Both games have been huge successes in terms of the number of sales in comparison to other PSP games.
Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars has also been ported to the system in late-2009.
