Fans of film noir, graphic-novels and The Godfather will be excited with Sony’s latest addition to its PSP game list – Gangs of London.

This game promises graphic novel-esque styled narratives set in the mean, after-dark streets of London where gangs fight it out to dominate the city’s underworld. You have the option of playing as one of five gangs – the Cockney “Morris Kane Firm”, the “Water Dragon Triads”, the Yardie “EC2 Crew”, the Russian “Zakarov Organisation” or the “Talwar Brothers” gang to achieve this.

A range of game modes including re-play (to replay action to see it from different gang perspectives) are in place. And since you wouldn’t use the same gang member to do all the different tasks in real life – you can also swap between gang members depending on the skills needed to complete a task. If you get a bit tired of all the gang warfare, you are welcome to roam around the city and relax or pop into the local pub for some pub games.

Sony says this title has the “first ever” game sharing device that enables palyers to send an extra level (that can’t be found in normal game mode) to other PSPs.

RRP: $80
