laggynoob Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 So the game has been out for quite some time now, and i want to know. Did the game live up to its potential? What do you think will happen to CJ? How has this game affected lives? Were your predictions about the content fulfilled? What was your favorite myth? and generally how has the game impacted you?

Husky Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 My Favorite Myth is the serial killer. But yeah to prove Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas was a huge win is that they are still selling new copies to Gamestop/ Eb Games / Toys R Us etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WRX22B1998 Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 hmm myths i dunno, but san andreas is a really good game overall. such a large area to explore, and with planes and stuff its much more fun. its still popular today with mods/addons like MTA , SA-MP.

Urbanoutlaw Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 The game definitely lived up to it's potential. Even a year after the release of the 3rd GTA game since, people still play & mod it. What do you think will happen to CJ? We kicked that one around a while back & I determined that Denise would flip out & stab him 37 times. He would survive the initial attack only to be hit by a bus while escaping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huckleberry Pie Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 Despite the lackluster graphics, it does live up to its potential; the game has been extensively documented and modded, giving people a free hand at adding anything they desire. Too bad the PC port of IV wasn't as efficiently coded as SA or Vice... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urbanoutlaw Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 Lackluster?!?! Compared to what? SA was originally released as a PS2 game & was packed. When it was (un)ported back to PC there were better textures, etc. Compared to new games it might not look as good but for the time it looked pretty good, even on my old Nvidia 440 video card. Unlike GTA4 it would play on most systems people had, except for laptops that had onboard video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I admit that the graphics didn't look as good as some of the other games, but it is indeed a fun game; my eight-year old niece sometimes watches me drive in the streets of Los Santos...

Urbanoutlaw Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 (edited) ...... but it is indeed a fun game; my eight-year old niece sometimes watches me drive in the streets of Los Santos... THIS JUST IN Manila - An 8-year-old girl led police on a high speed chase. When the stolen Diahatsu Midget ran out of gas & she was taken into custody, she claimed she learned to drive watching her uncle play GTA. You're a role model. EDIT: I'm out, later.

Of course I won't encourage her to mimic what CJ or Niko does; even her mum is somewhat amused at what I'm up to, sometimes with a chuckle...

Hansui Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 well, GTA SA is still a popular game imo, especially to those GTA players who had a crappy PC that can't play GTA IV. and even though the graphics is not really that good, the gameplay is so nice that it made me quite addicted on playing it, but eventually i got bored (i even fell asleep while driving on the countryside ) and uninstalled it later.

Mr.Niles Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas has to be the best one out of it's series IMO. Vice City had the epic storyline, GTA3 introduced it's Era. Then San Andreas just took the cake.. I didn't really pay attention to those Myths because they didn't interest me, I just enjoyed this lovely formula that seems to never fail... D.Eagle + Gas Tank of a enemies car = Profit! That never got old... even attempting to destroy a car that was down the street/almost out of resolution range. I've posted a comment on Youtube stating what I believe happened to C.J... From Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories the main character Toni Cipranni had to go into hiding for assassinating a very powerful man for Salvatore Leone - In San Andreas however, C.J did scam Sal for a heavy amount of money, thus pissing Salvatore Leone off... He could of hired Toni C. to assassinate C.J and then he had to disappear before Grove Street/ his allies got to him. That's what I think happened though, the world may never know. Another thing I loved about Grand Theft Auto: SA is the customization.. Sure the clothes sucked (Some of them at least), but you could pick your own style amongst the clothes that were in each shop. After 5 years I still pick up this game as it's a instant classic that will never be forgotten (Again, one of my opinions). -J.N Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloydierAnimations Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 San Andreas is my current favorite game on the PC. I have GTA 4, but I still am playing (and making movies) out of GTA SA. It's been great!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azn Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 PC requirements are awesome. Samp keeps it fun. The city takes my breath away even today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TNF Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 San Andreas was an awesome game, it was very different from III and VC and introduced so many new features, it lived up to it's expectations, though the graphics could have been better. As for what I think will happen to CJ, I think that after the final mission and once all gang territories are taken over, he lives up to his power and dominates the whole state in the same way Tommy Vercetti controlled Vice City.

Voodoo Doll Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 For me San Andreas changed the GTA universe. Better graphics, skins, cars, weapons, maps and more. Just to look at the first GTA ever and then at SA, it will be hard to believe they are actully from the same series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bear Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Its personally my favourite game, espically favourite GTA. I just loved the setting the most as there was so much to explore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love to fly around the countryside and the desert while listening to either K DST or Radio X. One of the things that gave San Andreas more repaly value (compared to IV) was all the things you could and its very fun missons; such has Black Project ( my fav. mission) playing that misson or playing anywhere in the desert really wants to make me go to Las Vegas, Nevada. Has fo myths well I dont pay much attention to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noxfaratos Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 (edited) I didn't get into the story nearly as much as the others, but it's one of the only GTAs that messing around/exploring never gets old, ever. And mods are great. Edited May 16, 2009 by Noxfaratos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott. Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 Completley lived up to it's expectations, what an awesome game with a quality soundtrack and a great storyline. ...Too bad my disc is broke . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Hyphy Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 After playing GTA3, VC, LCS, VCS, SA & IV, SA is the best IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macorules94 Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 (edited) So the game has been out for quite some time now, and i want to know. Did the game live up to its potential? What do you think will happen to CJ? How has this game affected lives? Were your predictions about the content fulfilled? What was your favorite myth? and generally how has the game impacted you? Did the game live up to its potential? No. IT WENT WAYYY PAST.. What do you think will happen to CJ? I think he'll live happily ever after in SA. How has this game affected lives? It made my life a tad more fun, and less boring Were your predictions about the content fulfilled? Oh, the first time I heard about SA, in 2004, I didn't know it would have been this big, and good. I thought it was just a new VC or III What was your favorite myth? My favourite myth was definitely bigfoot. When I first heard about it in 2007, I spent HOURS in the woods looking for him. And I was pretty pissed finding out he was fake, coz I wasted so much time. and generally how has the game impacted you? Hmm.. same as the Q before, made my life funner, and I don't think I'll ever have the same experience again, unless R* make the next GTA with 4 cities, desert/country etc. full of content. San Andreas is still my favourite game. Too bad my disc is scratched, and I can't find it in stores anywhere.
