Best Game?

» Pros 
I'm not going to blab on about all the amaaaaazing stuff u can do on this game or go on about how massive the map is because, fair enough it is all true, but this is NOT what makes the game so good. But simply the fact that the game is soooo addictive and that you can do things over and over again, and they seem to get more and more fun. You cannot dream about completing the game without a guide for the simple reason that there are 250 items to collect! , but this is the only reason WHY a guide should be used. 99% of the satisfaction gained by playing the game is by finding out your own method of completing missions. The two player mode that they have introduced is a fantastic way to expand the game, with oh so many hours of going on rampage of killing cops with your mates! But one of the best parts of San Andreas has got to be the Bullet.

» Cons 
What the hell is the point of 250 collectables??? 100 Gang Tags in enough! A minor improvement they could have made is for you to be able to have more than 7/8 gang members following you.

Now i CAN talk about all the amazing things you can do on the game!!! Firstly, i have to say it is so worth it doing vigilante missions in a hunter, especially in the desert or countryside with no skysrapers to torment you. And you can bypass level 12 this time!! and carry on going for god knows how long! i got to level 18 before i moved on! The fact that you can constantly change CJs appearance is an awesome new venture by rockstar, because it gives you a REASON to get money, just so you can shop in Didier Sachs!!! But the most sophisticated new gameplay element that rockstar have added to the GTA series is the basis that you have to build up your skills to progress successfully in the game. Eating food, working out, gaining territories and respect from your hood, buying the right clothes, the correct tattoos , the right haircuts etc etc. Also, the fact the the game is COMPLTABLE, even for the worst ever PS2 gamer! because rockstar have intoroduced a new capability, such that the difficulty of the gameplay and the AI of the enemies are altered in relation to the gamer's prowess in the game.

This game is an absolute must - buy, and if you refuse to play on you deserve to be shot; as do all those people who say it's sad to play on San Andreas!!! If anybody has any queries about how to complete any part of the 100% required objectives, just email me with the query and i'll email back as soon as possible or post a tip in relation to your query.
