Grand Theft Auto III to be released on iOS and Android [Video]

Grand Theft Auto III, one of the iconic video games of last generation of consoles, is ten years and Rockstar is celebrating by taking a new version of this classic to the IOS and Android systems. The Rockstar game is now officially on sale in the market and in the app store at a price of 3.99 euros. It comes with various graphical improvements, touch control and about 450 megs of total size. One of the great aspects of the game is that it has adapted to the touch screen to make it more accessible to this particular control.

The game is available for the iPhone 4 and later models such as iPad, besides being available on all Android phones. According to the same company, the new Samsung Galaxy Nexus also will have their version of GTA III available in the near future.

• Apple iOS Devices: iPad 1 & 2, iPhone 4 & 4S, iPod touch 4th Generation
• Android Phones: HTC Rezound, LG Optimus 2x, Motorola Atrix 4G, Motorola Droid X2, Motorola Photon 4G, Samsung Galaxy R, T-Mobile G2x
• Android Tablets: Acer Iconia, Asus Eee Pad Transformer, Dell Streak 7, LG Optimus Pad, Motorola Xoom, Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 and 10.1, Sony Tablet S, Toshiba Thrive

You can even plug in a USB controller, if you’re still not down with the touchscreen controls of tablets (I’m not a convert, personally – prefer the tactile feel of a stick and buttons, grandpa that I am).

Even Galaxy Nexus owners will be getting a version of this in the near future, heh. It’ll eat up your precious storage space, however – it’s 18MB on Android and a ridic-u-larse 462MB on iOS. Here’s a video:
