## Trivia

- It was stated in the UK magazine Official Nintendo Magazine that the game contained at least 800,000 lines of code, making it the most complex Nintendo DS game ever developed.
- If one had pre-ordered the game from GameStop, they were provided a cheat code that allows players to unlock all the weapons at Ammu-Nation and receive $10,000 early in the game, or the ability to acquire a bullet-proof Infernus from the auto merchant.
- Unlike the covers of nearly every GTA game since _GTA III_ with the exception of _GTA Advance_, the cover of _GTA: CTW_ doesn't feature artwork of a helicopter in the top left corner, probably because they cannot be flown in the game, and only ridden in one mission.
- If the player goes to the PDA Settings from the main menu, an "About BadgerOS" option can be opened, referring that for more information, the player should go to the game's official Rockstar Games site. It also has a date: 20:11:52 09/26/09, indicating that the game starts on 26th September of 2009 at 08:12 pm.
- _GTA: CTW_ was the first Nintendo DS game to be rated for PEGI 18+ (for the European release).
- Much of the audio was reused from 3D Universe games. Examples include vehicle door and ignition sounds, and tire screeches. Most of the pedestrian dialogue was reused pedestrian dialogue from _GTA IV_ and previous Rockstar Leeds titles (_GTA: LCS_ and _GTA: VCS_).
- In _GTA IV_, Ammu-Nation was closed by the mayor due to weapons prohibition in Liberty City. In _GTA: CTW_, it's back as an online service, making it the first to introduce Ammu-Nation in the HD Universe.
- _GTA: CTW_ is the second game in the series to feature an Asian protagonist. The first being Mikki, one of the four female protagonists from the original _GTA_.
- Apart from the toll booth workers and street vendors, _GTA: CTW_ does not feature any other physical appearance of other major characters from _GTA IV_. Brucie Kibbutz and Manny Escuela were mentioned through the names of their businesses: Brucie's Executive Lifestyle Autos and West Bohan Community Center; however, neither building is accessible, unlike in _GTA IV_.
- The protagonist, characters and pedestrians are actually 3D models made of 4 layered animated sprites. Unlike _GTA_, _GTA 2_, and _GTA Advance_, where they are one single animated 2D sprite.
- Huang Lee's PDA menu changes depending on the platform.
- The PSP version of the game added 2 Chan Jaoming Missions with "Parking Pickle" and "Sources", 3 Melanie Mallard Missions with "Dock'u'Mental", "Factory Fun" and "Half Cut", 5 Rampages, 3 Riding Shotguns, 4 Time Trials with "Highway Heat", "Dock Front Dash", "Comet's Tail" and "Home Run".
