Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas is one of the video games for the Grand Theft Auto game series. It was made by Rockstar Games. The game came out on the PlayStation 2 first and later on Xbox and PC. In the game, the player can do whatever they want, including hitting or killing people, damaging cars and properites and such violent things. That's one reason why the game is so famous. So in the U.S. and Canada it was rated mature (17+) by the ESRB.

[change] Gameplay
It is set in third-person which means the player can see the person (in this case it is CJ) on the screen. He is controlled using the left and right analog sticks on the PlayStation 2 controller. CJ, is the character who is used to play with and he can perform different moves. These are shooting, kicking/punching, jumping, and crouching. He can get into a nearby vehicle or steal one if it is being driven. There are many missions to be taken; the game as a whole has a plot, and the missions the player solves make the plot go on and help the player for his/her abilities (which are for example swimming, condition but also driving bycicles without falling from them and better shooting. Respect is also an important 'ability' players can earn, as they need it to go on in the plot of the game and take more missions).
[change] Driving
CJ can drive all sorts of vehicles. He can fly planes, sail boats and now a jet pack which was not in the previous games. In some vehicles that have hydraulics (where the car 'hops') the analog sticks can be used. If 'nitros' have been put on (by using a nearby garage) he can drive at incredible speeds which are a lot faster than normal driving. It is also possible to drive around with go-karts or tractors, which wasn't possible in the previous games; but these vehicles are quite slow and more for fun than for travelling around the map.
