See we’ve been keeping a close eye on this site for a while now. Many have speculated it to be a GTA game, but others have also mentioned that the game is a text-based MMO game named The Cartel currently being developed for the iPhone. Lucky for iDevice owners, initial impressions were half-correct. Though it isn’t exactly Rockstar’s beloved franchise, mobile giant Gameloft are indeed bringing over a game that sets to appease GTA fans who own the iDevices with their soon to be released title ‘Gangstar: West Coast Hustle‘.

Not much is currently known about the game, apart from the obvious glaring fact that it looks to capture the essence of the Grand Theft Auto series. Apparently it’s set in the City of Angels, with multiple radio stations to accompany you as you unleash havoc on the civilians in L.A. Reportedly, the game also boasts a progression system where you’re actually required to conjure up your own gang and build a meagre posse to a full-fledged empire. We like the idea, let’s see if they can pull it off. Check out the screenshots below, courtesy of Toucharcade.com.
