Fun until.....

I was having fun until I got to the level where you have to dance on the beach. The button combos you have to execute are ultra fast. I've been playing games since the early 80's and I still could not get past this stage. After wasting a huge amount of time trying to pass the level, I had to finally give up on the game. I didn't buy San Andreas so I could dance on the beach! Gimme a break. I got it because I wanted to act like a thug! The beach dancing section is totally lame. I think its funny that it was much easier to infiltrate the National Guard armory and forklift boxes onto the truck with people shooting at you the entire time. Getting stuck on the beach seems kind of silly after something like that. They should have made some way to bypass this insanely difficult level. In the end, I have to give this game a total thumbs down. Don't waste your money on it unless you are 1. A junior high student. 2. Unemployed or 3. Really enjoy frustration.

Attention!! to play this game in Xbox 360

First of all,to the kid who reviewed this game,what you said was the most stupip and racist review I have ever seen and you should be locked away.Second of all THE GAME SUCKED, THE GAME SUCKED,THE GAME SUCKED. Don't get me wrong, if this was the first game in the series it would be great, but the cold hard fact is its not. It is the fifth and to tell you the truth I don't like the main character in this game, not because he is black, because I was warming up to Tommy. There is never going to be another character like Tommy, unless the guys making the game decide to bring back Tommy. He was and still is the greatest video game character ever.

Third of all, the guns in this game. The first time I played it I didn't know what was going on. I can see having to learn to shoot, but guys, COME ON.

Fourth of all the levels are nearley impossible to beat. The level with with the General caused me to get killed 12 times and I beat Vice City 9 times. They did not make this game more of a challenge to play, they made it sort of a "miracle if you win game" and I get into the games I play, so when I don't win I get very,very,very,very angery.

Fifth of all, the new features aren't that great. The cars and guns wouldn't make me want to buy this game.

And last but not least, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it", which is exactally what's going on here. Make a new game, I understand that, but here's what they should have done:
1.Keep the same character

2.add new guns, but not new way to shoot

3.forget new cars, old ones were fine

4.change the storyline
If they had done this, The game would have sold just as much, and all around, be a better game.

If you are looking into buy this don't, buy 1,2,3,and Vice City. And if you already have them, take a brake play some other game and it will be allright.

On July 20th, 2005 The ESRB(Entertainment Software Rating Board) Has Changed The Age Group Rating Of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas From M(Mature17+) To AO(Adults Only 18+) For Complaints Of A Highly Sexual Hidden Minigame That Rockstar Failed To Reveal At The ESRB Review. DO NOT BUY THIS GAME FOR ANYONE UNDER 18 PLEASE. There Have Been Past Incidents Where People Have Killed Police Officers Because Of What They Saw On The Game. Its Your Choice To Buy It Or Not But I Would Recommend A Less Violent Game. Thank You For Reading My Review. I Hope It Has Helped You.

Not that good

I can't believe the hype around this game. I played Vice City and it was way better. It seemed all R* did was put some new skins on the maps and changed around some of the missions. I felt like I already played the game and was bored in the first hour. Then having to go work out and eat every ten minutes put the nail in the coffin. Graphics are horrible ps1 style. I really would give this game 2 stars but I need to bring down the average so people will have a better picture of what the game should really be rated.

Wow,why do so many people like such a disgusting game?
I wonder why this game is so adored by millions of fans when it's so horrible! I'm no shrink,but I believe that anyone who actually wants to play this has some sick facination with death!
So why does anyone want to play such a grotesque video game anyway? Well.in my oppinion it's because those who play GTA get a cheap thrill from the thought of harming people!
You may be thinking right now, "but it's just a game." True,but a the types of games that people play often reflect their personalities in real life!!! So what does that tell you about their personalities?!

I dont recomend this game for anyone,why? Because it desencitizes people and makes over-the-top violence more exseptable to them!
I have an idea... Why dont you stop playing games in which you play as a criminal and play a game in which you're something that the world actually needs,but what does the world need,you say? Less criminals and more good guys!

If you want to have fun while playing a game then I recomend playing a good game like, "The legend of zelda" or "Final fantasy" or any other game that doesnt promote bad behavior!

wtf....

WTf is having to dance and do stupid low-rider crap to music? GTA is supposed to be about fun missions, packakges, rampages, killing people, blowing up stuff....not dancing and low-rider b/s. But i guess they had to make one for all the crack-dealers and such, the ghetto warriors needed one to play too i guess...jesus, just please don't make a sequel to this...and i'm not saying this b/c you are a "gangsta", i'm saying what the hell happened to the old GTA style??? The missions do kind of suck in this one, i still love to play GTA 3 and GTA Vice City on XBOX...but this game ruined the GTA series...i should have known it was gonna be too ghetto-fab. What a waste of $$$...

Mass produced GARBAGE.

First off the auto aim still blows chunks. Good luck when you get into a gun fight with more than 2 enemies. Showpek's review is dead on. It feels like I've played a lot of the mission before...oh yeah vice city.I would recommend this game if you like driving for hours to get from one city to the next, having to dive in the water a few hours just to get you breath status up, having to go to the gym and eat every two seconds gets annoying. For those of you who like bad sequels *cough*Daryl*cough* are mentally retarded clueless gamers that just buy games so their friends think they are cool. The only good thing about this game is that I can use it as a coaster.

If you want to get some stress out or if you're just bored, I recommend this game. Otherwise, don't waste your time with this second-rate game.
