San Andreas for Dumbies


Recommended Posts

This Game is 5 times bigger in roads wise than Vice City and has three huge citys you go too.

San Andreas is not a city its a state and what a State it is. When i said roads wise before i ment just that. a set of really long roads connects the three citys which are each about the size of Vicecity. in between the citys and mountains , freeways ect.

You play as Carl Johnson, whos whole life has gone down hill and now you live with your gang in the hood of the LA Based city. Its Based in the 90's so think about movies like Boyz in the Hood. This City will have a big downtown area , alot of movie studios (porn maybe), and also look out for Riots, Gang warfare, and the other sinful stuff LA has.

Another city is a San Fran based city. this is the place where you can do alot of cool car tricks and you'll probally have alot of boat missions here. San fran has a big chinese pop so you might look out for some triads and they have a huge ----- scene so expects some real funny jokes. and lastly they make alot of video games there so they might have a mission that goes that way.

finnally is the Vegas based city. which will have you run strip jounts, casinos, ect. you might even become a real pimp with the coat feather hat and everything. the Italin mob will make a comeback in this game. Vegas might be where your hardest missions take place.

now lets talk about some of the other dirt

the game will allow you to swim but don't think you won't drownd

you can get fatter and skinnyer and buffer in the game.

alot more clothes to dress up in

If you in a tough spot in the game the level will try to make itself easier for you to get though it.

You need to eat every now and than but don't worrie its not like the Sims

Pagers galore in the game.

Most of this comes from PSM August 2004 Issue and the rest comes from websites that can be trusted.

ok now alittle bit more detail about the game.

Ok lets talk about the AI's. Everything you do in the game can may things better or worse on you. Even things like getting a hair cut can make the AI's laugh and your gang members disrespect you. Geting fat can make people treat you bad and skinny can man people push you around. So you need to think hard about what you want to look like.

Shooting in the game might make some of you PO and others jump for joy. The new shooting system not only allows you to use two guns at once but also you have more controll on where your shooting. Which means you don't lock on any more, you have to point your gun at what you want to shoot. I like it because now the dareing can take on a police chopper with a pistol if they wanted to :)

As for hand to hand combat think Manhunt because thats how it is in San Andreas. This is great being that the last games didn't have much of a fighting system.

now lets talk about some other feathers like rust and dirt. your cars will now have some wear and tear on them. Older a car gets the more rust. more off road you go you'll have dirt maybe even blood on the car if you run over someone.

Real time reflections

35- 50% more polygons on the screen

Realistic shadows and lighting effects

more detailed textures

more realistic animations

more in door locations

better and bigger in door locations

more mini games

each weapon offers a vastly different play experience

new rag-doll physics

better vehicle physics

Break into houses to get some cash

and so much more is kept a secret at the moment

But I'll update you on things like the radio and missions latter
