One thing that makes playing any GTA fun is the big open style of play. You can do almost anything you want, from stealing cars to beat the poor pedestrians in a coma. The largest part of the game to the parts you different missions to complete. When you complete a mission, you will return to the syndicate manager for a new mission. These missions can be anything from taking out drug dealers who are invading your turf, to save other members of your gang from Harm's Way. You can also take on odd jobs, such as taxi driving, to get extra money. In GTA you can be sure that you have never found something to do.

The control system in the GTA is very simple. You would think in a game that allows your character to do so many different things that control can be a problem, but this seems to draw all off with great ease. All you need do is marked on a small map for you as always displayed in the bottom left corner of the screen. If you ever get lost and do not know what to do next, look at the map. The game is also a really solid job of explaining all the different control moves can be found throughout the game. As you have a new challenge that requires new game, move the game guides you through the steps you go, which makes it easy to get a firm grip on the many different controls are found throughout the game. Everything from simply walking around, running different vehicles in the game are easily made after a short amount of practice and most controls in the game, regardless of what they seem to really spot on. Any wonder if Rockstar could take away the wonderful checks of the previous GTA games on the PSP need not worry. After a few minutes with Liberty City Stories you swear you're playing one of its console brethren. The conclusion is that what Rockstar has been able to draw from with this PSP version of GTA is incredible and a true testament to the talent of their developers, and the power of the PlayStation Portable.
