Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (Second Edition) (Xbox)

San Andreas is by far the crown jewel of the Rockstar Lineup. As Carl Johnson you return to the fictional city of Los Santos after your mother has been murdered. Along the way you meet a slew of characters, voiced by high profile celebrities such as James Woods, Samuel L. Jackson, and many others.

Unlike previous GTA games, San Andreas is a state, with three large cities and miles of sprawling country side. The storyline of this game is great, with a plot that will keep you interested from start to finish. Once you complete the storyline the game remains fresh with plenty of mini games, side missions, and the overall fun that comes with causing random mayhem by gunning down pedestrians, blowing up cars, skydiving, swimming, working out, and more.

Your video game collection is not complete until you own a copy of San Andreas, arguably the greatest game ever to hit any console.

I've played through the original PS2 version of this game and recently bought the XBOX version 2.0 and it looks great on the XBOX, even a better on the XBOX 360 and the 360 controller button layout works much better. To its not as grainy or faded as the first PS2 version and some of the game ...not all but some of the early PS2 game glitches have been fixed. Overall the improvements are in the graphics and the same trash talking lovable C.J. is untouched.

This version is minus the hot coffee mod which isn't really that good, because even if you did use the hot coffee mod, the memory card was unusable afterwards and I pity the fool who ran that mod off a PS2 HDD.

Version 2 via XBOX is a good choice if haven't played GTA: San Andreas before, although you might want to score on a PS2 Version 2 to use AR codes and have less frustration when doing Zero's side missions and those flying through those blasted sky circles.

Its playable on the 360 and you might need to go the official 360 website and burn your self a updated game driver CD thingy that allows some XBOX games to played on the 360.

This game is one of the best games I have ever played in my life!!! The graphics, story and every thing is good. So far it is the best Grand theft auto I have played.

this game is average at best. i liked the first and second ones but this one went overboard, if you like the GTA series, you will like this one too from a pure gameplay point of view but if you dont like violence and swearing this one is not for you. NOT FOR KIDS!
