Lies, Damn Lies

GTA:San Andreas

Now for something completely different.

This game freaking rules!

I was a fan of this series since the start anyways, so I was bound to enjoy this. At first glance it hasn't changed much since Vice City. The graphics are a tiny bit more polished, the music much better, and the story line awesome. But once you've done a few missions, you start to learn new things. Theres a few gimmicky things, like working out and the like, but there also lots of fun ideas, like you getting a girlfriend and taking her on dates, and you spraying graffiti tags across the city. But especially, brilliantly, taking territory. You see, the gang you are a member of starts off with only a few holdings, and once you complete a certain mission you can then go and take over enemy territory. Whats more, gather enough respect and you can lead your gang members into doing this! SO much fun. Honestly, I spent about 4 hours playing it today! I did some missions, but spent a large amount of time enroaching on enemy territory.

Oh, and you can go dancing. You play a little rythmn game. Oh, and the targeting system is better (but not perfect). So many little things add up to a brilliant gaming experience.
