Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
About
Grand Theft Auto - San Andreas is the seventh entry in the series in the GTA franchise, but only second big title after GTA - Vice City. Setting up in fictional state San Andreas, you follow the story of CJ, a member of one of the multiple gangs in the city. CJ's family is being attacked in drive shooting which resulted in the death of CJ's mother, so he returns to home from Liberty City. Meeting the rest of the family at his mom's funeral, he decides to rebuild the gang and gain control of the state.
The game makes a brilliant connection with missions and open world actions that you are able to do around the cities. You can steal cars, buy guns, hunt for collectables and do some side quests, while different characters give you specific missions in order to push the plot forward. Streets are filled with people as well as plenty of vehicles to steal. Fictional brands of cars, tanks, bikes are available to be stolen from any place around the city. Armoury contains pistols, rifles, hand-machine guns or a rocket launcher as well as melee weapons giving player freedom in anything he's doing in GTA.

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas reviews and comments
I mean, if you liked Vice City (VC) and GTA 3, San Andreas (SA) is a solid game with much to offer in comparison . The scope is considerably higher than VC, with a big map and a longer campaign.
Now, if you didn't like VC and GTA 3 because of the outdated mechanics, it didn't get any better here. I still find the plot a little boring and hollow - it's too silly for what I was expecting. The mission design gets repetitive fast. Also, getting from point A to B just to start doing what really matters is a crazy waste of time. At least we have checkpoints here, unlike GTA 3.
I felt the campaign could be a little shorter. Some quests are just there to waffle - if not in full extent, in some specific part. A good example: to do the last mission, you have to take gang territories. A lot of them. More often than it should, the enemies necessary to trigger the gang war just didn't spawn. It's not that bad if you compare it to the tasks you have to do in GTA VC (buy assets to do the last missions), but if you take into consideration that some missions are just as boring as that...
In conclusion, SA is a good game, but I honestly only beat it to have more repertoire. It's not that fun today, sadly.
This is indeed a remarkable example of how a game in the action genre can be enriched with RPG elements, such as character development, customization, and a deep storyline.
Players can improve their character's skills, such as driving, shooting, close combat, physical fitness, running, and more. Even the hero can become significantly overweight if overeating.
By completing various tasks, primary and secondary skills increase, which contributes not only to character advancement but also unlocks new possibilities in the game.
Players can customize their character's appearance, including choosing clothing, hairstyles, accessories, and tattoos. Create your own style.
One of the key elements that makes San Andreas unique is its dialogues and characters. The game features many charismatic characters, each with their own unique personality and motivation. They create a rich and captivating gaming universe, where dialogues and their interactions play a key role in storytelling.
By this combination of elements, «San Andreas» has become one of the most memorable and successful games in the «GTA» series.
