It is also the most sold game on the PlayStation 2 console. If you are old enough and owned a PS2, you might remember it.
Gameplay
The story is based on the life of Carl Johnson, the character you are playing often referred simply as CJ. His mother has been murdered, he no longer have a functional family, and all of his friends are falling apart as well. With the disastrous life of the city Los Santos, San Andreas where we play as CJ, he is forced to take control of the streets to save his family and others. You won’t probably notice the story as the game allows to skip through the sequels.
The first thing you will see on the “controllable” game is a cycle on the side of the road. Probably the first vehicle you will every ride in the game. From here, you can do whatever you want. Either play along by completing the missions, or wander around the city driving fancy vehicles, shooting with an array of weapons, often get killed either by cops or brutal accidents. The game will not restrict you from doing anything.
