LordVaderOct 28, 2004Awesome game, this is easily the best of the GTA games, excellent graphic and fantastic playability but what's with trashing the Xbox? The game is coming to that console as well so what's the big deal? I think some people need to grow up abit.

AaronT.Nov 23, 2004If only some of the movie sequels could evolve as well as the entire GTA series has. The most enjoyable gaming experience I have had since the original Mario Bros. on the NES.

KieranL.Nov 9, 2004Brilliant, gang warfare is too tedious and annoying when you are concentrating on the missions.
-

JakeW.Dec 11, 2004Dude I play this game all the f...ing time!! I love the fact that you can have girlfriends and all that sh.t! It f...ing rules!!!

RyanS.Dec 13, 2004This game is the bomb!!!!!!
-
-
BertH.Oct 26, 2004No arguments needed....... The Game speaks well for itself. Can't imagine what games will be like in 20 or even 10 years from now.
-
-
DaDefJamOct 26, 2004It's a timeless classic, even better than Vice City.

RyanO.Dec 7, 2004GTA san andreas is the best game i have ever played so far.There is so much stuff to do.I think rockstar should make another gta game.

IvaP.Oct 27, 2004My closest friend lost his marriage because of the GTA series, but he wouldn't have it anyway. He won't be remarrying for the next 2 years after the release of San Andreas. I've played it too... great graphics and that non-linear gameplay that makes you never want to touch a linear game again. Better than sex! Not that i've had it before. :)
-
-
BoomerSoonerOct 27, 2004Anyone that gives this a low score doesn't know what they're talking about. It's better than a 98...X-Box fans can go play Halo, their only game, and be jealous of this incredible game.
-

RicardoA.Oct 28, 2004This game is the best ever!!!
-
-
FrankJ.Dec 8, 2004I love it. it gives me great pleasure in blowing off a hookers head, and even recreating the beloved texas chainsaw massacre on cops. meow. 10 out of 10. game over.
-

WayneH.Oct 29, 2004This game is the best car and action game ever.Truly amazing. Anyone who hasnt got it GET IT!

JussiK.Dec 9, 2004GTA: San Andreas totally rules!
-
-
GraemeL.Oct 30, 2004This game is the best. it has every game in 1 nearly and it is the best game out.
-
-
FredH.Oct 30, 2004For those of you that are saying this game is not great because it is the same kind of game as it's predecessors, listen up: All sequels are the same kind of game as it's predecessors! What else do you want in it? Pokemon and Aliens?!
-
-
DjA.Oct 30, 2004What with people who don't like this game I oculdn't ask for anything more. At first I was disappoited until got farther in the game then I realized all the sh.t this game has...it's awesome.

Rob-OJan 13, 2005Danny D.... a step backwards? How can you say that? As much as I love VC and 3, this is a huge improvement. If anything it's a bit too ambitious for the little ol' ps2.

MarcusBagdogJan 31, 2005Stop dissing the Xbox owners, the majority of us aren't PS2 haters. I love the GTA series (and my PS2, Xbox and GC), and this third installment was amazing. The only downside is that it didn't amaze me the way that GTA3 did, but it was still a terrific game.
-
-
MatS.Jan 31, 2005Nothing can beat this free roaming game. including the plot twists and the visuals this game kicks ass.

KoriR.Jan 30, 2005Best game ever.

CodyG.Jan 30, 2005This game is the BEST game in the whole world!!
-

BenjaminDanielW.Jan 3, 2005The game is apsolutly wonderful! I like the compability very much! The graphic is for a pure 10, while the sound is 9. But the gameplay is superb (10), so I gave it 10!
-
-
LeeC.Jan 6, 2005Best GTA ever period.

PaulS.Feb 17, 2005Top banana.
-
-
RickN.Feb 1, 2005San Andreas does have its faults - targeting enemies, bland graphics, some rough animation etc. why do I still give it a 10 then? Because the sheer size and things to do in the game outweigh any flaw this game has, its huge, and due to this it is a game you could easily play for days and days on end. Be prepared to book a lot of time off work and say goodbye to your friends for a while.
-
-
BobB.Feb 4, 2005One of the best games i have played. I think that it is the best of the grand theft auto series.
-
-
TaylorC.Feb 6, 2005Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas is by far the greatest game ever made. If you don't have a copy, I ORDER you to get one. Now!

MikeG.Jul 29, 2006one of the greatest games ever. too bad people overplayed III and VC, III got the best score ever for ps2 games, and this has 10xs more content and better controls. if you don't like this game it might be time for you to sell your ps2, buy a gamecube and suck on mario's kiddie themes
-
-
JohnGOct 1, 2007This game was sweet. Everything has been improved. It is a pretty sweet deal when you can wander around the entire landscape without loading. There are hundreds of things you can do which leads to endless hours of fun and chaos. Add in the codes and the fun keeps on going. Long Live GTA!!!
-
-
KewkatJan 25, 2007Remember to drive safely without hitting any cop car, and just in case the clerks don't see "eye to eye" have a plan to visit the pay and spray after your job is done. This should keep those pesky stars off your back while you rob the store of every San Andreas they have, and take them home so you'll be the owner of MANY greatest games of all time.
-
-
DeondreJ.Mar 21, 2007It's fun. Has better cars, better weapons and characters look better. You get to do more in here than Vice City.
-
-
DereckD.Mar 8, 2008Played and replayed and played again. PC mods make this infinitely re playable.
-
-
JoshS.Nov 1, 2004This is the best gta game since GTA III I agree with Mark m in stating that anyone who says this game sucks needs to stop playing action rpg this game is awsome.
-
-
MichaelP.Nov 10, 2004Kickass game to cool makes it feel like your actuallythere killing, robbing, and working for the mafia.
-
-
TimS.Nov 1, 2004The best video game ever produced! Period.

FilipeS.Nov 11, 2004This is the best game of all my life!
-
-
MichaelV.Nov 12, 2004Man to all your losers complaining about the game i think this is the best GTA game that has come out yet. It deserves a ten but the only downside to this game is that its soooo big. oh yea!
-
-
JigganisZigOct 10, 2004I too think this game will be perfect, but i also think that there's a slight off-chance that with all the new changes that it could be different enough to make it not-so-good. Here is to hoping. i wish i could get it the day it comes... but im 12. cant buy GTA.

MikeTorenoNov 22, 2004This is by far the best video game ever made and anyone who doesn't agree with me can go... "Best video game ever!"

RinazzleNov 2, 2004Words hardly do justice to just how good this game is. The sheer playability blows the pants over literally any other form of digital entertainment. Period.
-
-
JasonF.Nov 26, 2004I almost lost my job because of this game. it is the best ps2 game i have ever played.
-
-
KyleW.Nov 2, 2004This one blows the other two grand theft autos away. The size of the game and the multiple range of vehicles is unbeleivable. It takes every aspect of everyday life and makes you control CJ's lfe and how he looks and dresses.

JuliusP.Nov 4, 2004This is the best game ever and I can't wait to the next game comes out. I know that it will probably come out when the ps3 is release.

ChrisS.Nov 5, 2004A brilliant game 10/10, almost completed.
-
-
LinoG.Nov 5, 2004Do not be fooled by imitators, or detered by "authority" figures who want to rid the gaming industry of every single disc, cartridge or otherwise that bares the Grand Theft Auto name. This is, without and doubt, reservation, or hesitation, the greatest game the PS2 has ever seen. Unlimited replay value, countless gameplay types, and custimization galore. If you have a PS2, get this game.

BlueFalconDec 10, 2004There's been a lot of great games to come out lately. But I think this one is the best of them all. No other game can match it's freedom of gameplay.

The amount of things to do in the cities of Los Santos, San Fierro, and Las Venturas is absolutely staggering... In my opinion there’s no excuse to not have a “save anywhere” feature included.
-
San Andreas's chief advantage over "Vice City" is size. And for many players, that's good enough. But another group of fans will come to quietly understand that, at least for the time being, "Vice City" remains the high point of the GTA series.
-
There's so much to do in this game that it's outside of my range of imagination to be able to picture me reaching a 100% complete. Unfathomable.
