'GTA: SA' puts a lot of its focus on Carl 'C.J.' Johnson, who returns to the city of San Andreas and the minute he steps off the plane, he runs into trouble.
I've been a massive fan and player of the 'GTA' titles on the PS2 since the revolutionary 'Grand Theft Auto III' was released in 2001 and its 1980s prequel/sequel 'Grand Theft Auto: Vice City,' which dropped in the early fall of 2002. While this 'GTA' title is a massive improvement over the previous two, it doesn't just surpass them in terms of graphics and gameplay, it surpasses them by building on the many things that made them great in the first place, and then some.
That goes to show you just HOW MUCH thought and detail was put into its production. I've been playing the game almost everyday since it dropped on October 26th and I'm still not even half way through it. It's an epic! 'Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas' has to be the greatest video game ever made.
