    Rated M for Strong Language,Violence,Blood,Sexual Content and Drug Use.

    Grand Theft Auto San Andreas is one of the greatest games of all time.This game is almost perfect.Everybody I know likes this game.The graphics aren't too good but they are not too bad either.I have the PC version of the game.The gameplay is excellent.There is plenty of stuff you can do in the game such as get    Rated M for Strong Language,Violence,Blood,Sexual Content and Drug Use.

    Grand Theft Auto San Andreas is one of the greatest games of all time.This game is almost perfect.Everybody I know likes this game.The graphics aren't too good but they are not too bad either.I have the PC version of the game.The gameplay is excellent.There is plenty of stuff you can do in the game such as get tattoos and haircuts,Go to stores,dance at nightclubs,date girlfriends or basically kill and maim cops and pedestrians.This is not the newest Grand Theft Auto game.The newest one is Liberty City Stories.I have not played that one however I hear it is not as good as this one.The soundtrack to the game while not as good as the one in Vice City does have some very good songs on it.It has songs by Dr.Dre,Eazy-E,Ice Cube,NWA,Ozzy Osbourne,Depeche Mode etc.There are more vehicles such as jets.My only problem with this game is that vice city was more fun to play over and over again.In Vice City there were very few difficult missions.There are not too many difficult missions in this game but the ones that are difficult are really frustrating and hateful.I beat GTA Vice City three times already.I only beat San Andreas once.The game is about a man named Carl Johnson(or CJ) who goes back to his neighborhood to find his mothers killer and reunite his old gang.Doing this takes him all over the state of San Andreas where he meets plenty of different characters.San Andreas is an excellent game and I suggest buying it.Also if parents are worried about the hot-coffee mod you wont find it in the game.If you child is impressionable or young don't get him this game.

    Pros:
    - Different missions that are really cool and fun
    - Story
    - A lot of good content (side missions, etc)
    - A great open world filled with life/realism

    Cons:
    - Boring missions (driving from point A to B, etc)
    - It can be challenging sometimes

    After a platinum and 102 hours played, i recommend it to everyone.

    Easily one of the best video games of all time. Tons of side content and a long mission line. Great map, great content, great soundtrack, great gameplay. Has more content and is more polished than 95% of games today.

    Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. I consider this game to be the greatest PS2 game, the greatest GTA game, and my all-around favorite. The gaming experience was just unmatched and although other PS2 and future GTA games have better graphics, the immersion and enjoyment this game gave me puts this on top. There's just something about GTA San Andreas that keeps me coming back and be CJ all overGrand Theft Auto: San Andreas. I consider this game to be the greatest PS2 game, the greatest GTA game, and my all-around favorite. The gaming experience was just unmatched and although other PS2 and future GTA games have better graphics, the immersion and enjoyment this game gave me puts this on top. There's just something about GTA San Andreas that keeps me coming back and be CJ all over again, whether I'm going on rampages on fighting the gurus in the gyms, or having a battle in the air with the Hydra, mauling criminals as a vigilante in the Rhino, this game has kept up its developers' philosophy of being engrossed in a world that seems to have no limits in the availability of actions that you can do. Carl "CJ" Johnson is a great protagonist (although Niko is almost tied with him as my favorite) and his story is one that I will never get tired of. From being a nobody to ushering his gang Grove Street Families to dominance twice, his adventures all over Los Santos, San Fierro, the countryside and Las Venturas, to being the most powerful man in San Andreas by the endgame, as well as being the first protagonist who can swim, CJ brings a lot to the table and is very essential to this game's enjoyment. Other characters are also great, be it as good guys, bad guys, bad guys doing good like Woozie, or supposedly good guys doing bad like Bog Smoke and Ryder, or maybe they're just hood guys. Frank Tenpenny is a great villain and Samuel L. Jackson played him to perfection along with the other voice actors in this game. Cesar Vialpando is my 2nd favorite as he is really a very dependable friend in this game..
    Currently playing on Android so I can play on the go, I consider the PC version better because of the modifications but I'll never forget the OG. The original game that defined my teen years.
    I will never stop playing this game.    … Expand

    Not to be the one that just follow other scores, but honest: GTA:SA is a milestone. True feels like a journey, and a very bumpy one.

    I believe you cannot dislike San Andreas. This is an icon already. The well-known characters that feel real, very interesting plot, entertaining gameplay - it all contributes to an amazing game that you can play multiple times while still enjoying it.
    As it is a holly grail of the gaming community, it's hard to talk about the disadvantages - yes, it is violent, vulgar and cliche. But at    I believe you cannot dislike San Andreas.

    As it is a holly grail of the gaming community, it's hard to talk about the disadvantages - yes, it is violent, vulgar and cliche. But at the same time, it is all staged so well, that you look at all of that through your fingers. It is approaching serious matters in a very non-serious way, being often auto-ironic and ridiculous.
    And the soundtrack that immediately transfers you to Los Santos. What more can I say - with all of its bugs and absurdities, GTA SA is a masterpiece.    … Expand

    Dude, if you haven't tried it yet, do it. This is literally one of the best games in the world, it may have outdated graphics but I'm telling you, this bad boy is still a gem.

    I bought this game for my 5 year old daughter. when I bought it, I asked the cashier to wrap for me. He asked who it was for. I said it was for my daughter. She loves care bears so I thought this was the game she needed. I returned home that night. It was her birthday and I hadn't gotten anything yet so i handed the package to her. She unwrapped it with glee. She looked confused. AlthoughI bought this game for my 5 year old daughter. when I bought it, I asked the cashier to wrap for me. He asked who it was for.

My wife on the other hand, was furious. My daughter Johnathan loves the game. The bad thing is that I'm now divorced, my daughter has been in prison for the past 5 years and there is no sign of her coming out. I detest this game with a passion… Expand

    Amazing. This was done when Rockstart still made great games. It is a shame what Rockstar has become. For me the PS2 is the truly definitive edition of this game.

    Considero essa a versão definitiva de verdade. Não só por causa da nostalgia que ela me trás, mas principalmente, por ser até hoje a versão com todo o conteúdo presente, e com menos problemas.
    Sempre joguei na casa de amigos, e por isso nunca completei o jogo no PS2. mesmo assim, as várias horas que eu passei jogando, foram suficientes para eu considerar ela como a melhor.

    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.
