What makes the controls on NDS different?

Are there weapons besides cars to cause destruction?

Absolutely: You access pistols, submachine guns, and rockets right from the touch-screen PDA, plus Molotovs and combat skills via on-foot button combos—enjoy unlimited mayhem once you’re armed with in-game funds.
