Message: [QUOTE="valosagutas, post: 206892, member: 77791"] I do personally love GTA San Andreas because it's more than a GTA game in my mind. It's like a great adventure book you can play. It's the only game offer you variety of so much missions and situations as its gameplay offers a high sandbox fun. Eventually an ordinary guy from the hood find himself being used like a special agent between multiple cities as there is decent character development here you will never see in other GTA games. And then he returns to his home and stays for what's left of his family by making a new family mixed with his own old family. I don't mean to say GTA SA situation and story is peak in video gaming, I think it in the context of GTA series. First GTA games is "go there, kill him and steal that car." GTA 3 has a lifeless empty character who doesn't even talk. It's like being a freelancer simulator in the illegal scene. GTA Vice City has a character talks too much. Just shut up Tommy, show me the money or you'll be killed by Sonny so don't go home crying for your mommy. This is all the game is about with crazy missions but they were fun, man. There are really memorable ones. GTA San Andreas is different thing. CJ is very relatable character for many reasons that require me to write about all of the game to explain why. When CJ talks I sit and listen lol. You start the game and see CJ had to return to the damn city he escaped for a better life by saying "Oh shit here we go again." but then he stayed because of his family by self-sacrificing himself, damn that's really a decent character writing. Great change compared to Tommy. As the game continues the sense of adventure keep changing and I do assure you nothing you experience in GTA San Andreas is something that you will ever experience in any other game. You will never be chased by police helicopter and saw police murder each other just to catch you by making each other go in pieces. You will never follow that damn train with a person who rides motorbike for you. You will never jump from other plane from another plane -> get inside and kill people without making the plane crash. You will never kill a person you love who want to kill you because he is corrupted so much because of money he still wanna kill you despite he loves you so much. Hideo Kojima stole the idea for emotional boss fight for MGS3 from GTA SA but it wasn't as striking as GTA SA lol. I especially cried when after that boss fight in GTA SA this song played: "I gave my life, not for trains, but for number 7" lolol However I gotta admit I really loved to immerse myself into the story of "I have no idea who plays with me like a fiddle" story and CJs character development that he showed who is the boss is very remarkable point in video game history. GTA 4 is all about your cousin. Cousin and the cousin. GTA 5 is all about heists. There is an ordinary young man. An ordinary old man. And there is extraordinary man who exist just because at the time crazy characters were very popular. If Rockstar had wanted to create a character about what people wanted in GTA SA they wouldn't make CJ exist. They wouldn't write a story like that. In the end future of GTA could have ended with GTA San Andreas if it weren't a video game like that. So why I love GTA San Andreas? I do love the diverse gamemap and sandbox fun I do have, but I also love CJ. There is no such a character you will ever see in anything. Playing as such a character and experiencing his life is not something you will experience in any other game. I love CJ but no homo damn lol. [/QUOTE]
