This was my first GTA game. Still has a sweet spot in my heart all these years later.

The fact that it's just an "ok" GTA game is pretty incredible considering it came out on the PSP. Rockstar had no business making a GTA game that kept all of the fundamentals for a platform like that, but they found a way.

Salvatore Leone wanted to be in a next-gen game, he compromised and stared in a psp game instead

This game has some of the best original music from any video game. The pop songs are amazing.

The cannibalistic elites in the game hits different these days. GTA really does just show reality <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f4eN_I-uslU&t=2231">37:11</a>

I was 13 when the psp launched and my father immediately bought one for me with this game. Got the "Value Pack" launch unit with the 32 MB memory stick, the headphones and the umd "demo disc" with music videos... and one game - gta lcs. <br><br>It is difficult to describe to someone who wasnt there at the time what huge leap in technology the psp (and this game) specifically meant at that time. Playing videogames in 2004 meant either playing "real games" at home on ps2/xbox/pc, pokemon or mario on gba (if you are one of those "nintendo people";-)) or those minimalistic "java sidescrolling games" on your LG flip-phone/nokia.<br><br>Being able to control a 3d character in a 3d world - ON THE GO - was unheard of at the time. This was the only time i remember in my life where i was literally thinking "i cannot believe this."

One thing I always remember about LCS is that Toni Cipriani is the most unhinged psycopath of a protagonist in the series. I don't mean the crazy kind like Trevor I just mean the cool, unbothered and will do the most insane things just for the sake of it kind. You know, like blowing up and flattening AN ENTIRE CITY BLOCK AND SUBWAY STATION killing hundreds of people just because he can. And that's just one mission.. Nevermind him slaughtering countless more people all in a bizarre series of events to just impress his mother

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f4eN_I-uslU&t=2143">35:43</a> Fun fact, the cars that try and get revenge on you for wacking the mayor are super heavy. If you manage to steal one and save it, you can use it to cause havoc throughout the city

To me this and VCS were the perfect expansion on everything GTA III and Vice City did right, while improving the parts that the players universally hated about those games.<br><br>Also, can we take a moment and admire the catalog of games this company had in the 2000's...

its both a prequel to GTA 3 (the final 3D game) and a sequel to GTASA , since it takes place 6 years after GTASA and, more importantly, after the casino heist so we see Sal's paranoia after both the Leone and Sindacco's lost a lot of money

GTA LCS was a insane feat for a portable console and a really good on that. Frank Vincent as Salvatore steals the show as always.
