Best PS2 game ever?

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas is by far the best ps2 game I've ever played!

The game has incredible gameplay that no other game even comes close to! You can do almost anything; from playing a game of pool at a local bar, to flying jet planes thousands of feet in the air! You can even jump out of that plane and parachute back down if you feel like it!

There's hundreds of vehicles at your disposal, and the physics that go with them feel great.

Besides having great gameplay, San Andreas also has the most complete, detailed, and immersive gameworld ever created. The state of San Andreas (a parody of California & Nevada) feels like such a real place! You'll see gangsters and drug dealers walking around the bad neighboorhoods, rich people hanging out in Vinewood (the games version of Beverly Hills), and sunbathers hanging out at the beach. If you leave the city and go out to the country side, you'll run across small villages inhabited by stereotypical rednecks... If you travel all the way to San Fierro (a parody of San Francisco) you'll even run into some hippies.

Besides having an immersive world to explore, there's also a very well-crafted story. You'll come to like many of the characters in here, from a hippie named the "Truth" to a secretive government agent (straight from the X-Files) known as Toreno...

The whole story arc also has a strange resemblence to the Rodney King case and the riots that happened afterward (this game is set in a parody of California, in 1992). I won't go into detail, but many of the situations feel eerily similar to real events, which makes the whole thing feel even more real.

I'll admit that this game is far from perfect though:

-poor police A.I. means running from the police is more frustrating than fun.

&

-the graphics can look pretty awful at times...

But other than that (and a few glitches here and there) the game is perfect, and I can't imagine any PS2 collection being complete without it.

I highly recommend this game to any Mature gamer.

I have not yet recieved my purchase. This has never happened to me before and I am really dissappointed. I basically paid for something for nothing. It has been over 2 months.

I recently moved and I gave my new address which is 12361 Oak Park Blvd. NE #307 Blaine,MN 55434. I could have been an error on my part, but I don't think so. I hope this can be resolved.

I have mixed feelings about this game. It has endless replay value if you like to explore and have endless hours to play. Would have been a great game when I was younger. But now I'm a career man, don't have the time to search around and the world seems too big. I'm only half done with the game, up to San Fiero, but I can't seem to get too familiar with the streets and things like I did in Vice City. Plus most of the state seems pretty bland, yah, there are miles of houses but only a small fraction have something of value to find in or near them. I don't know, I just had a lot more fun with Vice City- I'm giving up and gonna try Grand Theft Auto 4 when I have the time... this game can go back where I got it from.

The worst GTA EVER

BEWARE OF THIS GAME. GTA san Andreas has a lot of mature content, and isn't as fun as the others.

love it

This was the best GTA game ive played out of all of them, this one had more better stuff like working out, driveing a train, swiming, and more great stuff to do. This was a ghetto part of GTA witch was alright i still enjoyed it, it was'nt just about killing people you could do more better stuff in this game then the other GTA games, but GTA1V came out and thats a preety decent game but really kinda the samething, in this one you can work out and become buffed why could'nt they put that in GTA1V but this game was fun.

ANOTHER FINE GAME!!!

How can a mere game change a person's life? Because this is not just a mere game. It's like taking a step into another dimension where things are completely psycho, but it's ok. Awesome plot and storyline that leaves you hanging on the edge waiting to see what happens next. I'm drawn in. The vehicles, the driving, the sub missions the characters - Fabulous.

Cons:
A little stretched out driving from place to place. More often than not I get sidetracked on a friendly killing spree (I love this game:))

It took about 2 weeks after completing this game for me not to be edge whenever I saw someone wearing purple.

A little blockish here and there. Probably cuz I'm on PC.

Some mission are EXTREMELY HARD to complete. Are you going to play or quit? I thought so....

Oh yeah. My moral compass tells me that I really shouldn't be playing it. Buying into fantasy violence can't be good for the soul. I'll think about this more deeply after I complete GTA IV.

The biggest problem of this game is you have no weapons and the map to find the weapons is really useless.
If you find a weapon your stuck with 9mm while the folks trying to wipe you out have a M-16.
Last is nobody under the age of 18 should be playing it's to graphic and language.
