You have probably all heard about the rumors that Grand Theft Auto San Andreas is the best GTA game yet, The story kinda takes us away from the original GTA games but in what some people thought was bad, is actually good, as the Story in San Andreas exceeds my Expectations, I believe this game is what made the GTA franchise so Successful, without it I don't think GTA would be as it is.

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas is a pretty solid game. This is definitely close to being my favorite GTA game. My favorite is Grand Theft Auto III. This game is very entertaining because there are so many things that you have available to do. But the main thing that makes this game fun are the cheats. My favorite cheat is to get the "Stunt Plane" even though it is difficult to fly, it's a blast to try to fly under briges, dodge buildings, and of course jump out (with a parachute).

I really do not know what more can be said about this franchise! This game had so much content! I could not believe all the content they crammed into this DVD Rom, i still play and love this game to this date! All the side missions, the difference in locations, the character editing, the vehicles, everything! It also has a super soundtrack! If you don't have this game get it now!

This was a great game huge content lots of weapons great gameplay and the ability to fly with the jetpack

This was definitely the best of the three GTAs released on the PS2. There was so much to do it became a bit overwhelming. My favorite new feature was the ability to fly airplanes. I was disappointed when that didn't make it into GTA IV.

If I have one problem with San Andreas, (other than the old gen controls) it's that the map is actually "too" big. It takes a long time to get anywhere and there's not alot going on in between cities.

It would have been fun if Rockstar had included wildlife into the woods.

After the run away success of Vice City, how do you possibly top it? BY THROWING AS MUCH CONTENT AS YOU POSSIBLY CAN!!! San Andreas is ridiculously huge, and being a fictional state it contains not one, BUT THREE CITIES!!! Each one alone is roughly the size of Vice City. There's Los Santos, San Fierro, and Las Venturas which are fictional versions of Los Angeles, San Franciso, and Las Vegas respectively. Not only is there more geography to roam around, but more vehicles to use such as planes, hovercrafts, and God knows what else. You can now finally swim!!! (HOORAY!!!) The addition of being able to create a unique look to the character by buying clothes and hair is pretty neat however, the awful RPG elements of going to the gym and eating to increase your stats just doesn't feel right. I could go on about the other neat stuff you can do, but it would take waaay too long. Story wise, the game is another side story taking place in 1992 concerning Carl "CJ" Johnson, who is the first black main character in GTA history. 5 years after leaving the gang violence and corruption of Los Santos, CJ returns home from Liberty City after receiving word that his mother was murdered. Upon returning, CJ is haggled by crooked cop, officier Tenpenny and realizes that his gang the Grove Street Family has fallen apart. The concept of the South Central gang wars between Grove Street and the Ballas is a refreshing change of pace, and the story starts off promising. That all changes once Carl Johnson leaves Los Santos, as things get ridiculous and hard to follow. I found that I know longer cared about the story line and I become more interested in completing the missions and just being an asshole to the general public. Even though I perfer Vice City over this entry, it's still a great continuation of the Grand Theft Auto franchise. At times, it values more quanity than quailty, but I guarantee you won't find a much better sandbox game on the PS2.

San Andreas is the 3rd game in the GTA series since it went 3D and using an open world sand box element. This game is great. Theres lots of side missions and other activities to keep you busy and playing for weeks. The amount of different types of activities you can do is mind boggling. I suggest sky diving. Its a real thrill and pretty fun. SA has a good story. Its as ood as any crime based movie I have seen. There are plenty of characters for you to meet and work for to make cash. They are also voiced by some big name actors. The voice acting is top quality. But unfortunately GTA still suffers from those same wierd looking in game movie characters with the wierd action figure hands. They also look rather cartoonish. The audio is of high quality at least. The car sounds and sound effects sound good. The weapons sound god for the most part but some of the spund effects sound recycled, so they sound the same. The Controls are responsive and work well. You can move CJ around pretty effortlessly. The auto aiming still sucks though. But in this game if you press down on the right analog stick you can use a free aim that allows you to choose your targets. The auto aim works well close up but at distances it still stinks. San Andreas looks good. It doesnt looks really great but GTA games arent known for eye candy. I think VC looked better but thats just me. SA also has a lot of new radio stations. Just like VC SA has all licensed music. I didnt care a whole lot for the music though. Its mostly rap that was popular in the early 90s with rock that was popular in the 90s. It all sucks. There is one classic rock station and from the looks of it in the manual you would think it was hard rock, but nope just alot of soft rock and hippy crap. No metal or hard rock at all. The Talk radio station is very amusing but gets old after the second or 3rd time you have heard it. I still think VC had better music. SA does have some multiplayer modes but thier mostly weak and forgettable. GTA SA does deliver the goods just not as well as VC. If your a GTA fanatic you will like this game. Also on a side note, incase any other morons tell you otherwise there is no Bigfoot, aliens or UFOs in this game. I checked area 69 (51) and found no alien bodies. Its all BS. Basically Rockstar made a bunch of open space and didnt use anything to fill it. So dont waste your time looking.

it offers more things to do in the game.To me I like a lot of fast cars and how I can in prove them by makink them faster. I also like the different types of weapons you can choose from. Overall this game is the best out of all untill the next one. PEACE

If IV was your first GTA game and thought it was awesome, then think again! San Andreas is totally the best GTA game to date. Not only that but i find it way better than IV, Saints Row, you name it! The missions were a lot and a variety, (not just killing people) and more challenging, plentiful of weapons, huge map, addicting storyline, really does feel like the 90's when you're playing the game. Every aspect of this game is awesome. You feel very accomplished when you're done beating this game, unlike *cough*IV*cough*

I loved this game, way better then part 4, it has way more missions, better storyline, better controls,and etc gta4 justs looks better and is overrated.
