  Grand Theft Auto is a fun adrenaline rush. enjoy

For those who appreciate the sophomoric, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas is the ultimate indulgence. This particular storyline follows Carl Johnson, "CJ", who takes it upon himself to regain his "street cred" in his old Grove Street neighborhood, all the while cleansing his home city of gang violence and building his business empire across the cities of San Andreas. Despite the challenging missions, what makes the game so much fun is that it is truly a cartoon for adults. Character voices include the likes of Samuel L. Jackson, Charlie Murphy, and Peter Fonda, among many others. The developers' attention to detail and variety of side-missions will have any gamer discovering new features and laughing at new jokes many months after starting a game. In other words, San Andreas has a very long shelf life before it gets old.

Like its most recent predecessor, GTA: Vice City, San Andreas could be considered a "period piece"--this time for late 80's/early 90's West Coast living. Get into any vehicle, and as you surf the radio stations you may hear Ice Cube, Stone Temple Pilots, or Eddie Money--with George Clinton or Axl Rose as the radio DJ. Whereas previous GTA games focused on one city, San Andreas is a state with 3 major cities--caricatures of Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Las Vegas--with countryside in between, thus making the landscape of this RPG absolutely enormous. The developers' sophomoric sense of humor spares no detail in their creations. Virtual doppelgangers of places like Luxor Las Vegas and Camelot are renamed into much raunchier (and funnier versions). You may ride in a boat called a "Reefer" or a car called the "Bf Injection". As you walk past pedestrians in different neighborhoods, you overhear strange parts of silly (and sometimes nasty) conversations. There is even a "secret" army base in the desert, called Area 69. Needless to say, this game is not for children. Even clean jokes may be over the heads of some minors because of the subjects they parody. All in all, if you like a challenging role playing game and can appreciate the little details in a big world; you will get your money's worth from San Andreas.

  A Successful Transition to the Xbox
Review created: 09/27/05

Even before GTA: San Andreas’ hidden ‘Hot Coffee’ mod erupted, controversy surrounded the series and its depiction of 90’s Los Angeles and the gangs that frequent it. Though politicians and advocate groups attacked it, no can deny that it’s simply the most free-wheeling and addicting game ever made.

What makes this game so great is that it’s not a game; it’s another world. Almost anything is possible. You want to work out? You can do that. Shoot pool and bet on it? You can do that too. It’s the rare game that serves up unlimited replay potential since the game itself never really ends. The main storyline may wrap up but there’s still a whole world out there waiting for you to stir trouble up.

It would not be a stretch to call GTA: San Andreas the pinnacle of the Xbox. It’s likely to stay that way as we wave so long to the Xbox and welcome the 360 in the coming months.

It boggles the mind how high the expectations will be for the next incaranation. One thing is for sure, Rockstar Games is up to the task and will deliver a phenomenal effort.

I could go on for hours about the game but chances are you already know everything you need to know: this is a must-have for your gaming collection.

  CLASSIC AS USUAL
Review created: 04/24/08

GREAT GAME I LOVE THE GRAND THEFT AUTO SERIES... THIS WILL BE MY FIRST GAME FOR THE XBOX HOWEVER....

IT STHILL IS A GREAT GAME... ESPECIALLY GTA: SAN ANDREAS.

ITS JUST A GAME THAT YOU NEED TO OWN BECAUSE NOT ONLY OF THE CONTRIVERSARY AROUND THE GAME, (ESPECIALLY SINCE THIS IS THE FIRST EDITION) BUT BECAUSE ITS JUST A CLASSIC.

This game is awesome. Unlike some of the Grand Theft Auto games, San Andreas has tons of things for you to do besides your current missions that go along with the story line. You can achieve a girl friend, work out at a gym, and even race and design cars.

  So much fun, causing so much mayhem!!
Review created: 02/27/08
by:

As a loyal original XboX owner, I have been playing the last remaining games that were produce for the XboX. However, when the opportunity came along to buy San Andreas I had to jump on it, since it is still popular on EBAY! The game is so wide open that, if you can think of something to do in this game you can just about do it. From jumping fences to escape the police, to lifting weights to get stronger, to recruiting fellow gang members to go do dirty work together and even picking up girlfriends along the way. The set-up for the game is so expansive that there is a freaking interstate built into the game, police chase resemble the highway scene in the Matrix Reloaded.
This game is definitely all that and then some more!!

  "Xbox Gta- Old is Better"
Review created: 01/29/08
by:

I bought it for My Nephew for Christmass, and He enjoyed it and said that the "Story line is Cool and something to do." I payed a good price for this Item (Highest Bidder) seeing as though it was the original GTA, I was surprised at the Low Price with Shipping came out to less than $20.00. The Interesting thing about this game (Upc-71042596956) is the "Hot Coffee" sequence which You dont get in the Newer Remastered game (Upc 710425299179) My Nephew also says that its the same game but counts as a different game, as the Memory from the old Xbox GTA does not work with the Memory file on the New Xbox GTA 2nd edition. One other Note is that I had Bought the Newer Xbox Gta,but Sent it back seeing as that My Nephew could not Reload His Old files on it. Hope this Helps! GOD Bless.

Just take 2 minutes and read this. This is very EASY to do! It literally takes 10 minutes to setup. Simply follow the steps below. I promise you, this is 100% real. I wouldn't jeopardize my eBay account status if this was a scam. My feedback is real and I will answer you on any question! Here is what you do. Click on the link below, register, pick an account type (referral is the easiest) and complete just 1 offer (Very important that you complete the 1 offer otherwise your account will sit in limbo until you do).This is not like other sites where you need to complete one offer on 2 or 3 different pages!!! And a lot of these offers are FREE trials with nothing else to buy...No commitments!!!

There are plenty of cool offers to choose from such as Blockbuster online, Stamp.com, Netflix, Gamefly which are services you would regularly sign up for anyways and their all secure networks, why not use them to get a free PS3 System or cash (I did the Netflix deal). Look at the offers and choose the one that works for you. After signing up and completing your one offer, simply refer 8-13 people (depending on the FREE prize you choose) to do the same under your link (just post the same thing as I have on eBay, and you'll get your referrals before the auction even ends.)

Then they will ship your PS3 System or your selected item for free, I chose the PS3 80gb System. No Joke, 100% REAL!!!

  The GTA San Andreas guide is a must have!!
Review created: 08/26/07
by:

I have completed all the Grand Theft Auto games and using the guide definitely enhances the game experience. Each GTA game gets better and so do the guides. This guide is the best yet! Sure you could play it on your own and have fun but you'll be missing most of what the game has to offer.

With the guide you'll learn about all the vehicles, all the hidden items, all the side jobs and every detail of the map. It will take you much longer to complete the game but you'll see that there is so much more to the game.

You'll find this guide on ebay for dirt cheap (usually a few bucks) and after you complete the game and move on you can sell the guide on ebay and get your money back! What a deal!

I am very unsatisfied. The game we received was for a different game system than we ordered. I had a difficult time to get someone to respond to my emails about this problem. I was directed to ship it back and they would send me the correct game. I had already paid for shipping and was told in order to receive the correct game I would have to pay again for shipping the incorrect game back to them. When I did finally receive the correct game it did not work.
I was not going to pay a third time for shipping to try for another one.
I would not recomend them.

The game is good. Maybe the postman enjoyed the game too because it took 3 weeks to get to me in michigan from Iowa. But when I did get it the game was in good shape no scratches and I have been enjoying playing it.

This game is delicious! It was a little too crunchy though, and now I think shards of plastic are destroying my stomach. Another problem is that the disc will not fit into my Nintendo.

I bought this game from ebay because it was a quarter of the cost of me buying a game of the same quality as a retailer. The game was brand new and in original packaging. I love how litlle a payed for it. If I took it for a trade in at a retailer, I would make money off of it. I was shipped out immediately. I am very happy with this game.

i bought the hot coffee edition simply because i wanted to see for myself what the controversy is about..... it's nothin special to be honest, (the hot coffee part, that is.) it was overall a great game with huge expanses of territory to roam and hundreds of vehicles, a fairly decent story line, the voice acting left a lot to be desired, with cheesy lines that often made little sense, also the game seems a bit wonky at first, but you can adjust sufficiently to make it playable, a game that totally makes up for all its flaws with all the cool stuff you can do, whether you prefer stealth missions where you're stealing a harrier jet of a loaded military warship and trying like hell not to get a new hole in your head, or competing a bicycle race down a huge mountain, or just flying around in downtown los santos in your jetpack, even small minigames like atari style arcade games, or just kickin back in your tank and blowin the SH*T out of some cops, you'll love this game, there's litterally about a hundred hours of good gameplay in this thing, unless you cheat, or get internet help (same thing) and too much to do to even begin to list it all, this does mean theres a small lack of a specific focus to the game as a whole; it isn't a dedicated rpg, or a dedicated racing game, or a dedicated fps, it's all that and more in one, not a game for everyone as theres a lot of swearing, but most people can get over that. it really is one of the few games that is hard enough for the most experienced gamer, but fun enough to be enjoyed by even the first time player. and lastly i must say if you plan to buy it and have the option of going for xbox version or ps2 version, go for the xbox version, it is much cleaner, smoother, and better graphics overall. enjoy the game and i hope you like it as much as i have.
