Official GTA: San Andreas *spoilers*

[slycat]

My take(after 2hrs):

- graphics seem to be on par with ViceCity. No improvements that i can see. Some slowdown, some stuttering when going to new place. Load times similar to VC.

- People look a little blocky.

- music is still good, lotsa rap.

- LOTS and LOTS of expletives...like every scene. Don't play in front of any kids. And if you do not understand 'hood' speak, lingo, u'll be lost a lot. Regular folk watching me play had no clue wtf the characters were saying..

- Coming from RayLiotta for VC, this new voice talent is kinda a letdown...like i dunno who he is,...Maylay?? I could tell Samuel L Jackson straight away tho',...which was nice.

- plays almost IDENTICAL to VC. Groundbreaking?...Nope. Fun?...Yes.

- controls similar to VC but i can tell they've tweaked the fight controls for the better.

- still TONS of stuff to do.

- anyone think the colors are off in some parts? Like during sundown, EVERYTHING is too orangy...i mean i thought it was my TV but dayuum...its like all orange and yellow.

- i dunno about the stats part...like fat, respect, stamina...etc. In beginning it sounds cool but i hope they don't put too much emphasis on those stuff coz its getting kinda lame...I don't wanna HAVE to stop at a restaurant to eat and stuff..

IN short, so far, SA is = VC+new area+slightly new stuff.

....after playing/during playing, people around me were commenting how i became all huffy and kept swearing..

Yeah, the colors are strange when it's when the sun goes down. It's really hard to see anything. Reads off of the disc constantly, that's annoying. In game map isn't very good, too hard to tell where anything is. Two hours in and I've only done two missions.

If you are copying GTA3, then no innovation is needed. Wait for the PS3 version to see some innovation me thinks.

am I the only one that doesn't really find these games fun? I'll play them and all, but after 1-2 hours I turn it off and never pick it up again

I'll get it for the PC so I can use the "Always Full" cheat.

Having to eat in game reminds me of UO too much.

I have played VC every night for the last 8 mons for hours on end. I save at my mansion, go down to my garage full of motorcycles and my nascar and ride around the city killing cops.


I then get in my apache helicopter and shoot rockets at cars and boats.


This game has infinite replay value.
