This is from GTAPSP.com:

Alright so here's the ticket. A few retailers have been whispering about an email they received this morning from Take 2 explaining that Liberty City Stories' PS2 incarnation is going to ship to stores across North America on Monday, April 17, in preparation for release the following day.

Interestingly though, the word on the street also says that the game will feature "updated graphics, new missions" and a wallet friendly $29.99 price point.

Of course, until Take 2 actually say something themselves about this then it's going to stay firmly rooted in the rumours section of my brain.

This news comes at an interesting time though, given that tomorrow is the day that Take 2 announce their financial results for Quarter 1 of Fiscal 2006 and announce their plans for the future. Stay tuned, I'm certain that I'll be reporting on something tomorrow.

good thnx i hope my mom doesnt see that its out on ps2 cuz i told her its only for psp. so im fucked if she does :)

Meh just tell her you didn't know that it was coming out for PS2 and it was only for PSP :thumbs up:
thanks for the news update Mzeppelin :thumbs up:

Haha that's what I told my mom too to get me it for PSP. But I'll also be getting it for PS2.

And that's kinda lucky for PS2 user who didn't buy PSP just for LCS... :P

Updated graphics is probably true.
Well, new mission....hmm......

Thanks for the news. :D

ummm we kind aasked the EB games people too. lol.

More:

So yes, it's true.

How old are you?

15 why

I caught this bit at Thegtaplace.com

Its what Take2 said in a press release.

So yay. It is coming out then most likely! For only 30 bucks too! I have to save some of my money.. I like to spend it too much.

This is great new, it's good that I haven't spent my 40 bucks yet. :ph43r: :ph43r:

And who's paying for your games? you? or her?

Well, if he doesn't want her mom to see that it's out for ps2, then it's obviously her mom that's paying for his games. :ph43r: :ph43r:

Not always

Meh, that's me theory. :ph43r: :ph43r:

Thanks for the news. I'm really interested in seeing what it will look like and how it will play.

Hmm, I've been getting bored of San andreas, so this should be a fun game to play while I wait for news on the upcoming GTA4. :ph43r: :ph43r:

Same here! I've big time outplayed San Andreas.

San Andreas is still fun if you have MTA. The Death Match version will be out soon.

So.....can we uh....fly in PS2 version's LCS? :unsure:

I don't know if I will lost again like I did in GTAIII. :(

Nobody knows. We'll have to wait till it comes out to see.

Hmm.....I think that's ok to me wherever if there's plane or not, the map is too small to fly anyway. :P

or....is it? :unsure:

yeah, if you have a plane, getting from one place to another would be very quick. :ph43r: :ph43r:

There better be my fuckin' Dodo! lol, I love my bragging-rights for being
able to fly that shit :) lol...

That fuckin' dodo sucked. It had no wings and you couldnt fly it worth a fuck.

Yeah man, I tried to fly it so many times, I would get off the ground, but seconds later it would just slowly sink down. :ph43r: :ph43r:

That is what its supposed to do.

Some people could fly it, but I never figured it out. :(

Neither did I, obviously.

Is there going too be anything different or is it gonna be the exact same as it is on psp?

It will probably a little different from the PSP version I think, like more clothing sets.

^ Yeah but do you know that?

Well I think rockstar would put something in the ps2 version that wasn't in the PSP version so they can persuade the people that have it for psp to also buy it for ps2 so they can check out the new things. :ninja: :ninja:

yeah good point KT so they can make more money

I bet there'll be at least 3 or 4 more things different than the PSP version. I couldn't see them just doing a straight port.
