Quote : | "Speaking from personal experience, my interest in the actual missions wanes almost immediately. That's absolutely been the case with San Andreas. I still find the camera, controls, and combat of the console versions to fall short of the series' promise - a promise manifested most surely in their impeccable knack for creating cities which feel real. That the series has been able to succeed almost purely on the personality of its presentation for as long as it has is a either a credit to its manufacture or an indictment of our collective intellect, and you're welcome to believe whichever one you want to.
I won't deny that the game has a real shine to it when you start playing, that shine carried me almost entirely through the first two. I wish I weren't saying this, I wish I was just giving it a 9.9 and clicking okay on the upload script. No-one would disagree. There are many ways to play the game, and as I've suggested the personality it projects positively gleams. The voice work is excellent, and some of the best writing in games today can be heard on the many remarkable radio stations. With friends over, it's almost like a performance art. But I don't particularly enjoy playing it, as a game you understand. I fully expect to be in the minority on this. " |

yeah i got it but how do i rob people
btw getting one of those fucking vans was probably the most difficult thing ive had to do in the game. i was seriously losing hope of performnig home invasions. every time it was a cop or a group of rival gang embers fucking shit up. god damnit. 10/27/2004 7:56:53 PM |

why are all u guys asking all these questions. to me its no fun having shit told to u. u'd be surprised at how much other stuff u find trying to find out how to do some of the shit ur asking about. same with cheats. i never use cheats until after i beat the game, or i may do a cheat to show a friend something, but i would never use it to excel in the various missions. takes a lot of the fun out (though GTA is still fun as shit even if u are using codes)..... just a way of life i guess... 10/27/2004 9:36:18 PM |

whats the fun in not knowing how to do something and not wanting to waste your time figuring it out when theres a world of other things to do. thew fun is in doing it, not sitting there for four hours trying to FIGURE OUT how to do it. its a big game, and im not traveling all over the fucking thing to figure out something so unimportant. 10/27/2004 9:57:56 PM |

i think the allure of the game lies in simply being able to go out and do shit in an environment where you normally couldn't do anything like that. FOr instance, who hasn't been driving down a street one day and just wanted to run someone over, or see what kind of crazy ass flips you can do on the overpass? Well, go over to GTA and give it a shot and you won't get hurt or lose any money on your car. Its the closest thing to VR in a city, even if the music gets boring. 10/27/2004 10:07:30 PM |

this game will take much more than 50 hours i predict. i have pulled two all nighters and i dont feel like im scratching the surface. i enjoyed crashing my car into the river and swimming to a boat, and taking the boat all the way around san andreas with the cops chasing me and shit for leaving town (4-5 star felony rating). found a water chopper floating near a dock way up at the top of the map, hopped in, and was promptly shot the fuck down by a FIGHTER PLANE with fucking heat-seaking missles. god damn. i also enjoyed flying around in a twin engine jet. hotness son. holler. 10/28/2004 1:41:41 PM |

I'll have to wait for the Xbox version but did they fix the controls yet? In both of the previous games, I hated getting out of the car and having to kill people. The targeting system sucked! They should just make the controls like Max Pain and I would have no problems. 10/28/2004 1:50:37 PM |
