How is it our country is so messed up to allow such a violent game be sold then pull it off the shelves because of a little sex scene. I walk up to the old grannies in the game, stop them into a bloody mess then track bloody foot prints (or tire tracks) as I leave. But show two consenting adults having sex and the game gets pulled. Sex is not illegal. The violence is. I think it is totally bassackwards. The game is sweet either way, for adults anyway. I need to get GTA 3.
would give it 6 stars

This is by far the best game I've ever played. Sure, it's so inappropriate it's laughable, but that's not the point. This is a revolutionary game, with probably one of the biggest worlds ever made in videogames. The radio is amazing, the story makes sense, and even though it's a GTA game, it still has family values. CJ tries to find out who killed his mom with his brother as they bring the Grove Street Families back from the grave. Excellent!
PS: To the kid who wrote the review about this game, with all due respect you really don't know what you're talking about mate. People don't buy this game because it teaches them great values, they buy it because it's a great game. It's not like after beating this game, I'm gonna go grab an AK-47 and go on a police massacre. Also, it says 'A Kid's Review'. That means you're under 13. This game is for 17 year olds and up...
GREATEST GAME EVER MADE!!!

I've beaten both versions of San Andreas (ps2/Xbox) and I can honestly say that it is the greatest game I've ever played. Anyone who disagrees with me has obviously never played it all the way through or they used cheats to do so. GTA San Andreas is all out amazing and blows any game out there away. That is of course until a new GTA game comes out for the Ps3 or Xbox 360. If you've never played a GTA game or you didn't like the other GTA games, you still have to play San Andreas.
Greatest game of all time

This is by far one of the funnest games ever made. I've played this game from the time i woke up til the time I went to sleep at night taking time just to snack. If you have a PS2, Xbox, or PC you should definately buy this game, you probably won't be disapointed. I'm not going to comment on any rating stuff, but I like what Reviewer: "Cookies Yes, Crumbs No" said about it. Anyway, buy it now.
Among The Greatest of all Games

The Only difference between the original version and version 2.0 is the "hot coffee" mod has been taken out. Beside that, everything is exactly the same as the original one. It is not child-friendly in anyway, but that'a not a bad thing when it comes to Grand Theft Auto. Defintely a must have
Can't stop playing!!

What a great game. My parents wouldn't buy it for me so I went to Wal-Mart-No Sweat. Can't wait for the next one.

All serious social commentary aside (for the Moment),GTA steadily improves the franchise with every release, and the game differences between Vice City and San Andreas enhance the already exciting playing experience by quite a bit. Although Drive-By's are maddeningly difficult on the X-Box compared to real-life (just kidding), the controls seem more intuitive and the new manual option for aiming makes the game much more enjoyable. Various skill levels and experience meters add an RPG feel to the action and the expanded wardrobe is a fun diversion.
As far as this products purported harm to children, my friends 11 year old sister plays for an hour a day after she does all her homework and is on the honor role. While the disc could be broken and the jagged edge used to stab someone, the actual damage this game can cause to children is negligible compared to an improperly secured, loaded hadngun.

I hadn't seen anybody else talking about the 360, so i thought i'd add this. This game is compatible with the 360 and it is awsome! The black and white buttons on the xbox map to the "bumpers" on the 360, so all works quite well. This game is one of the most addictive games i've ever played. I highly recommend it for adults and mature teens who are already desensitised to gangs and violence.
