GTA: Chinatown Wars gets exclusive character on PSP

16.10.2009
Rockstar has been slowly revealing details about how the PSP version of will differ from its Nintendo DS (and ultimately iPhone) counterparts on its official website. Last week it revealed the exclusive mission, "Factory Fun" which is an homage to the "classic" mission "Are You Going to San Fierro?" In "Factory Fun" Chinatown Wars protagonist Huang must destroy a warehouse full of "illicit crops" with a flamethrower before escaping unharmed.

Today, the studio unveiled a new character in the shape of Melanie Mallard, an aspiring journalist and documentary filmmaker who gets caught up in a plot involving the criminal activities of Liberty City's Triad gang. Melanie has made a deal with Chan Jaoming to get a behind-the-scenes look at his business in hopes that she will emerge with a career-making story. As you can imagine, this doesn't go according to plan. Mallard, we're told, also makes an appearance in "Factory Fun" as a journalist covering the resulting blaze.

If you live in Orlando, FL you can get some hands-on time with the game at the Amway Arena this weekend. Look for the Chinatown Wars van there today, tomorrow, and Sunday.
