GTA DS No-Shows T2 Conference

PS3 BioShock leads Take Twoís E3 presentation as talk of Chinatown Wars is avoided.

Presenters at Take Two’s E3 press conference avoided further discussion of the DS exclusive Chinatown Wars with CEO Ben Feder only saying to expect more information soon, according to a recap of the event at GameSpot.

Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars was revealed at Nintendo’s E3 press conference Tuesday.

Instead, the focus of the Take Two conference was on the success of some recent projects, with Grand Theft Auto IV being the highlight—it was also alleged that Civilization Revolution has already sold out at retailers with another print run coming, according to the report. The company also chose to shine a light on its sports portfolio, family catalog, and a handful of previously announced core gamer products, particularly Borderlands and the PS3 version of BioShock. Trailers for both games were played.

Other games that were shown at the press conference include NHL 2K9 for the Wii, NBA 2K9, and a Wii Dora the Explorer that will be available this fall. A quick tease for an upcoming game in the Red Dead Revolver franchise reportedly ended the presentation.
