You will play as Tony Cipriani in the year 1998 in Liberty City. The game kicks of where Tony returns to the city after he laid low for a while. Below we outline some of the stuf that we know so far:

► You will be able to drive bikes in the game!

► Rockstar are unsure if they will be able to keep flight in the in game, due to technical limitations.

► You may be able to run your own MP3s off the PSP's MemoryStick Duo.

► Salvatore will be returning in the game and you will be working for him.

► Luigi's club is now run by JD O'Toole, a triad pervert.

► Hidden Packages, Stunt Jumps and Rampages will be hidden in all new locations.

► Some buildings have been altered from 2001's GTA III to better represent the era.

► It looks like Luigi's Club has been renamed to "Paulie's Revue Pad" for the new era.

► Several old faces can be seen including Misty, Joey's girlfriend from GTA3 and Salvatore.

Also we got the magazine scans! Twelve screenshots taken direct from the PSP! Click here to view them! Don't forget to check out our missions page where we already have info on 2 of the many missions featured in the game.

UPDATE: I just remembered that Tony owned a restaurant on Little Italy(which was later renamed to Saint Mark's due to the game Mafia) in GTA 3.
