GTA: San Andreas
by noteworthy at 3:23 am EST, Nov 14, 2004

It's fun from the start, but it gets even more so once the gang wars begin. "Your 'hood is under attack!" Quick -- steal a van, round up a posse, and get over there, pronto! Defend your territory and earn the respect of your fellow gang members.

Also, you'll need to buy up some property around town so that you always have a convenient safe house to duck into when the cops get onto you, as well as a garage to stow that fancy sports car you nabbed over on Rodeo.

When you need lots of cash, big pimpin' is the way to go.

Also, if you want to get a sneak peak at Las Venturas before you've opened up the highway, just jump in the water and swim across. The cops will become relentless, and you will die, but if you're good, you'll be able to get a good look at the Strip, including Excalibur and all the rest.

Or just jump over the fence at the airport and steal a plane. You can dodge the missiles, and if you have cheats turned on you can fight off the cops. They stop looking for you if you go inside.

If you get the private jet at the airport, and you fly it very close to the ground, it is possible to see virtually all of the section of the map modeled after San Francisco before the jets shoot you down. I seemed to have the most luck approaching the city from the north north-east real low to the water and rounding around where the bridge modeled after the Golden Gate is, then flying just west of Pacific Heights towards The Mint from there. Once you hit Twin Peaks, you can come around over The Mission and Soma and into downtown. You can get a good look at almost the whole city in one shot. Once you are over downtown, the jets seemed to get way more aggressive. Hit that area last.

I've only been able to play the game a few times thus far, but it is highly enjoyable. It may be a very good thing that my PS2 is dead..
