The PS4 top three are quite a bit different, with Grand Theft Auto 5 being the most-downloaded game on the platform despite having originally released for the PS4 in In third place for PS4 is Minecraft , which makes sense as Minecraft is the best-selling video game of all time and doesn't have a native PS5 version at the time of this writing. The PlayStation VR and free-to-play categories didn't have many surprises. Beat Saber remains one of VR's killer apps , as does Job Simulator , so it's no surprise at all to see them take the top two spots.
Though it was made exclusively for handheld devices, it can now be even played on a cell phone, which is an incredible feat considering how expansive the game is. It also features fun mini-games not found in the proper games in the series, such as actually having to hot-wire a car before players can drive it. Vice City is best known for the introduction of zany cheats, such as turning a vehicle into a flying car, which became a classic staple of GTA games. It also added tons of new vehicles like planes, motorcycles, and helicopters.
After the release of Vice City , Rockstar plunged even further into satire and social commentary, and San Andreas is the best example of exactly that. The contrast between the gangbangers and the Mulholland Dr. But on top of that, there were some major RPG and customization elements added to the game, including buying property, getting haircuts, and working out, not to mention that San Andreas has the best GTA map.
So has San Andreas on PC been worth the wait? Well, yes, quite frankly: it's a marked improvement on what was already a bloody brilliant game. If you've played through the PlayStation 2 version then we wouldn't suggest spunking another 35 notes on it, but if you've been more patient than stupid old me, go out, buy it and play on, playa.
Let's face it: for the most part, voice acting in games is pitiful. Whether it's due to the quality of the actors if you can call them actors , or simply the amateurish directing, it's a fact.
Rockstar might have the sort of budget that sends most developers greener than a leprechaun on St Patrick's Day, but it also knows how to use it We're willing to bet that a big slice went on hiring some real talent to provide the voices. And nobody does a bad job. Look to Rockstar, developers, and take a lesson in how to produce voice acting that won't have us reaching for the mute button. Grand Theft Auto. I know what it is, you know what it is, and more likely than not, even your mom knows what it is.
In our community of gamers, it's known for the immersive and innovative gameplay that gives the player freedom unlike any other game out there. In the mainstream media and everywhere else, it's known as that one game that teaches kids how to hijack cars and pick up hookers. Rockstar Games, however, not one to disappoint, satisfies both camps by offering up plenty of innovative and immersive gameplay that'll be rife with controversy with Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas , in many ways is two games in itself. There's Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas , the actual game, that's complete with missions, side missions, and everything in between. By and large, the missions have been improved upon, and there are some definite 'holy crap, that was awesome'?
However, some of GTA's core mechanics still suffer from the same problems that have plagued the series since Grand Theft Auto 3, like the sometimes screwy targeting system and the steep, steep difficulty level. San Andreas is basically your virtual playground, filled with fast cars and deadly guns, and it's up to you to decide how you want to spend your time in San Andreas.
By giving you a huge, sprawling environment to cause havoc in, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas is a game that's entertaining to just explore, or slowly destroy if that's more your thing. Some people are content just lazing the day away, accomplishing nothing but havoc and mayhem in San Andreas, and in this respect, Rockstar has really improved upon the series.
San Andreas is absolutely huge, with each city feeling uniquely different and filled to the brim with things to check out, and by throwing in some gameplay elements that are quite similar to the Sims, there's less of an emphasis on actually pushing through the game. When you take the scope of the entire game into considerations, San Andreas is a real technical feat.
Some of the textures don't look too hot and there are a few prominent visual bugs, but just about everything else has taken a step up from Vice City.
Likewise, the audio presentation is probably the best yet in the series: the voice-acting is impeccably convincing, the dialogue smartly written, and the diverse music fits in perfectly with the gang-bangin' theme of the game. If your answer is anywhere from an enthusiastic "hell yeah" to a wishy-washy "kinda" than you should probably be playing Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas right now.
However, if you're in the minority and your answer is a "no, not really" then you should probably still give it a rent. Nothing in the series has changed drastically, but there's so much more content that even without a major face lift, San Andreas just might win you over.
Not too long ago, it seemed doubtful that the Xbox would ever receive the Grand Theft Auto treatment that the PlayStation 2 reeled in success from. With the announcement of the Grand Theft Auto: Double Pack for the Xbox however, the horizons brightened for Xbox owners as two of the finest titles in the PS2 library finally made its appearance on the Xbox, cementing the possibility of future Grand Theft Auto titles.
And lo and behold, just half a year later after the initial appearance on the PlayStation 2, the Xbox gets the royal treatment with Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas , which ultimately turns out to be a straight-up port of a fantastic game.
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas is the same game it was on the PlayStation 2, and as such, there's no point in going over my rambling drivel when you can just read it in my original PlayStation 2 review. However, if you want the long and short of it, here it is: San Andreas is a lot of fun, and so filled to the brim with content, that even if you didn't dig Grand Theft Auto before, it's worth checking out now.
The Xbox version definitely looks sharper with a cleaner textures and HDTV support, but strangely, the load times are no better, and in some cases worse, than the PS2 version; makes you wonder what that hard drive is for, doesn't it?
Another major failing of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas on the Xbox is the unnatural controller layout, and it's a fault that can't be too heavily attributed to the developers. The PS2 version of San Andreas utilized every single button on the PS2 controller, with the especially important four shoulder buttons in constant rotation, and since the Xbox has only two shoulder buttons, this creates an issue. Drive-bys, for example, are only possible with a contortionists flexibility, making the already tough game quite a bit harder.
Make no mistake, it's still a pleasure to cruise down the streets of San Andreas, but if you've cruised down the streets via your PlayStation 2, then not enough has changed to warrant cruising down them again via the Xbox.
However, if you haven't experienced the simple pleasures of high speed chases on the hilly streets of San Ferrio or the thrills of re-experiencing the 90's in a violent fashion, then don't hesitate to check out Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. Arguably, one of the most well-known and hyped game series of the past few years. This is a pay-to-play game downloadable through Steam. Antony Peel. Software languages. Author Rockstar Games.
