Ryder with the V's

This game is probably my favorite game ever. The only thing left I have to do is those airplane missions and stuff like tagging all the walls or getting allthe clams to reach the %100. Every now and then I'll play it on the xbox just to get a ton of stars and just wreck !@+% up. I definitely wouldn't beable to do that with GTA4, that craps terrible and has no replay value at all

nothing like hitting hitman status with a weapon and being able to double wield for even more carnage

two sawn offs/tech 9's = game over

how do yall not like GTA IV? i think it's better than San Andreas.
but i hate the fact that I traded in San Andreas before I got a chance to finish it

Best story, best city, best character.

Arguably the best game from the GTA franchise. I borrowed this game from a friend 3 weeks ago and finally found myself playing it again for the first time in4 years. I just finished the game last night. One of my favorite games ever.

My thoughts:

I bought every clothing item from every clothing store for CJ. I dunno why, I like dressing him up for certain missions and other scenarios though.

I had CJ dressed up like Young Dro for a few missions before the final mission. My fave outfit to equip CJ was Woodland or Urban Camo + Boots + BlackTanktop + Dogtags + Silver Watch + Sunglasses + Black Bandanna or Black Beret.

2X sawed off shotties or 2X tec-9s and the AK-47 = Going ham on the civilians, gangbangers, and the cops.

OG Loc = Fraud status. Glad I helped Madd Dogg take care of his #$%.

Catalina was a +%%%$....even when you've finished working for her in the vast countryside she bugs you on the cell.

I could care much less about 100% completion though...I'm more concerned about finishing up every required mission from the game.

Big Smoke...man I wished he didn't turn his back on CJ...he was too valuable and funny to betray Grove Street. I will always remember the cutscene whereCJ, Sweet, Ryder, and Smoke go up and take their orders off the Cluckin Bell menu. Smoke like ordered everything off the Menu by saying :

"I'll have two number 9's; a number 9 large; a number 6 with extra dip; a number 7; two number 45's, one with cheese; and a large soda."

Zero was the worst guy I've worked with....I don't care what MECKS has to say. The RC plane = hardest mision in the game. Took me about an hour and30 minutes to complete that +#*$. I hate how I cannot freely move the plane by manuevering with the black and white buttons instead of the joystick alone, andthe fact that it's near impossible to line up and shoot the vans and bikers. I beat that mission with exactly no gas left in the tank.

I'm happy San Andreas to have big celebrities such as Samuel L Jackson, The Game, Ice-T, and Chris Penn to play their respective characters in the game. Icould play it all over and over again.

With that said -

11/10

This game was pure PERFECTION

From the soundtrack, to the gameplay, hell even the dialogue between the pedestrians

"I smoke because it gives me knowledge"

But the game is easily my favorite from the PS2.

I used to do that all the time when my friend would cheese the pick and roll with Yao Ming and Tracy McGrady in NBA 2k5. He would seriously score100 points with those two players, and that's it. It used to piss me off so much.

I would wear certain outfits with certain cars.
Like a tux with a black infernus.
I never kept a nice car in a bad neighborhood.
Never kept a hoopty with rims in a nice neighborhood.
I never killed civilians. Only gang members, drug dealers and cops.
My cousin never took the Chicano gang territories.
Never used cheats...ever. Always bought guns and food.

I hated the RC Plane missions, the only ones I skipped out on.

I also had a daily driver, a red sultan with gold rims, exhaust and ground effects.
I never put nitro in any of my cars.
And I walk when I am out of the cars unless I need to dip.

And much more...haha.

 

[airthompson]

Its cool

 

[grimey]

I just hated the racing missions and flight school.

 

[xcellziscrack]

it took me forever to learn how to fly the plane

the jetpack >
