This game has been hyped about for over 2 years, and it delivers. Probably what is most impressive about Stories is that it looks as good as it does. An entire world has been put onto a little five-inch screen. The story is more comical and fast paced than any console version of GTA, making it very entertaining and a joy to watch. The gameplay is sound, but the controls really could have been implemented better. You use the d-pad to switch targets, which works fine, but the L-button could have been used for that, and you could have been able to switch targets while running. You have to stop every time you kill a guy and start running again. Its not annoying, but it could have been implemented better. Anyway, the graphics are AMAZING. For the size of this game, and even if this game was half its size, it looks absolutely incredible. Maybe not completely bug-free (pop-in, pixels acting up), but there is an extremely high level of detail in everything in this game, and the framerate always remains playable. Needless to say, it looks alot better than GTA III. The value is that of any GTA game, if you play through the entire thing it may last you around 40 hours, and if you go back and play all of the minigames and collect everything, then it may last you over 100. Yeah, this is the killer app for the PSP (whatever that means).
