Video Game Review: GTA San Andreas

Well I was just thinking about writing a video game review and I thought maybe I should write one of GTA San Andreas. The GTA series have been my favourite games and since I haven't got the GTA 4 yet, I still play the older ones.

Name: GTA San Andreas
Publishers: Rockstar Games
Genre: Action/Role Playing/Other

Well San Andreas is the kind of game that has almost everything you want in a free roaming game. You have the choise of doing the main missions (quests/levels) or roaming around the city doing small missions and finding fun things to do. You can't design the way your character looks (like you can do in a lot of games these days) which I wished you could do but you can buy clothes for your character. One thing I liked about this games is that its a fairly big city and you can roam around eating, working out at the gym, stealing, gambling, driving around city or anything else you can think of. Unfortunately after a while you will find that you have no choice but to finish the missions or you won't be allowed to roam around some parts of the city or even certain buildings without getting caught by cops since you haven't unlocked this area by finishing a percentage of the game. The vehicles in the game are not that awesome but you can use nitro so thats not a problem. The guns and weapons are alright but I wished there were more weapons to choose from.
The Graphics aren't as good as in games these days (2008-2009) but its ok to waste a little time on. Over all I think this game has a good story-line and is worth buying if you have some spare time. Although if you want a better game I think you should get GTA 4 instead (The graphics are amazing and the features are great).

My rating 7/10
