A UGO reader participated in an unspecified survey about an "upcoming game," which, judging by the kind of information presented in the questions, is definitely Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars. For example, question 18 begins with the premise "The title of this new game is called Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars, by Rockstar Games."If this is a real survey, then it has backhandedly revealed previously unknown gameplay information about the new handheld version of the mega-popular franchise. However, that information is of the "glaringly obvious" variety that you could "learn" by pretty much imagining the game.
For example, one question asks responders to rate the importance of features like "OPEN WORLD" and "MATURE STORYLINE." To be fair, this question does go on to mention genuinely interesting new features like ad-hoc multiplayer, replayable missions, and stylus-based minigames, but if you're just now learning from this survey that GTA has "mature storylines," you'll be very excited to hear about its new "car theft" feature in which you totally steal cars.

Yeah, I was thinking 'immature' would be a better description..

Screenshots now! Since I don't plan to buy a PS3 or Xbox 360 in the near future, the DS GTA is my only chance to play a GTA game again. I really did like the GTA games and hope that they don't tank the DS Version. In some kind of Newsletter they once wrote: "This will be unlike anything you have seen on the DS before - trust!". (http://tinyurl.com/6xhqgp) If they brag like that about the game, it'll better be incredibly awesome.

This sounds like it's really cool, as long as it's not one of the old-school style top down view GTA games.
