If CJ wants to get any answers he not only needs to do several odd job to get more money but he also needs to earn a lot respect and that's where the game's new Role Playing features come in. OK, you can't gain experience like in a traditional RPG (like a Final Fantasy) game but you can increase your stats and looks so you can go from a very skinny guy and in a boring white shirt with jeans to a jacked up muscle head with cool tattoos, a stylist hair cut, and hip cargo pants. Your looks play an important role when doing certain jobs and you can even use it to help you go out on dates with a cute honey. Although it funny to see CJ get fat from fast food, certain girls won't go out with you if you are a fat slob that doesn't wear the right stuff.

Going on dates are not the only extra activity you can par take in. If you are trying to stay in shape you can go to the gym to work out or why not try to compete in a marathon? If none of that sounds exciting then you try a game of one on one basketball or how bout a Dance Dance Revolution-like game with Low riders? These are just some of the games you can find in this massive title and another new edition to this GTA game is a second player can join in on some of these mini games as well so you don't have to play with yourself all the time.

If you are familiar with the past 3D GTA games then you will instantly recognize the look of San Andreas. The game graphics are amazing simply because Rockstar has able to create this huge virtual world populated with tons of citizens and secrets. Although the graphics are still impressive especially in the real time cinemas, they are starting to show their age thanks to all the slowdown, bland textures, and some choppy animations. It's true that the Xbox version comes with more polish then the PS2 version but the problems are still there.

Both GTA III and Vice City were some of the best sounding games for the Playstation2 and Xbox and thanks to all the millions they made on those hit games they were able to get bunch of big names for San Andreas as well. Turing on the game's radio will reveal a wide list of 10+ stations each with their own style like rap, rock, and much much more. Although listening to all these stations gives the player a lot freedom, you can still listen to your own custom soundtracks like in GTA Double Pack for Xbox if you even need it? If all that wasn't enough the game has some well acted cut scenes with Hollywood voice talent like Samuel L. Jackson, Peter Fonda, James Wood, just to name a few. We can't forget the game is filled with realistic sound effects for each vehicle waiting to be taken.

My take on this is this whole subject is it was a shame with all the game's questionable content; it was something as natural as sex gets a game banned. There is sex in movies all the time and nobody makes a fuss but people raise hell if it is a game? Senator Hilary Clinton even had spoken out against the game after she discovered this hidden sex scene. Well Ms. Clinton you are nothing more then a spoiled old cold fish and I can now see why your husband (former President Bill Clinton of course) cheated on you in the first place. You should really concentrate your time on more important things rather then a mere video game with a little booty in it. However, it was also stupid for Rockstar Games for lying to the ESRB in the first place so I understand why the game got pulled. I still want to play more Adult oriented video games in the future but it looks like this Hot Coffee news isn't going to help the industry break the stigma of video games being for just kids.

Grand Theft Auto San Andreas is literally one of the biggest games ever created and it will take you weeks or even months just to see everything it has to offer. San Andreas may not have the graphical overhaul and other improvements I wanted but if you are one of the few people that have not played this awesome adults-only game you have less of an excuse to go out play it now.
