Simply put, San Andreas is the best the PlayStation 2 has to offer. At nearly six times the size of Vice City, with fully customizable characters & vehicles, a new control scheme, enough mini-games to give Mario Party a run for its money, a killer cast, wicked soundtrack, and, well, pretty much the freedom to do whatever you can cook up in that little noggin a' yours… San Andreas is a defining moment in the history of video gaming. Okay, okay… sure, it's not perfect, still marred by unstable framerate, suspect AI, awkward pop-ins, and flaky visuals. But let's just put our inner-critics aside for a moment, shall we? Good. Now go buy, steal, rent, (whatever it takes to get your hands on…) this game, ya' heard?!
Alas, if you were foolish enough not to slap down a few bones for a pre-order, then continue on for a few screenshots to tide you over until the next shipment comes in…
