Previews// Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (PS2)

Massive

Frightened people of Britain: come 29th October all criminal suspects will be at home playing videogames; you may walk the streets again. But once millions of copies are in the public domain, batten down the hatches, the world’s about to see a freshly reinvigorated breed of gang-wise social misfits unleashed into its urbanised veins.
I've got a brand new combined harvester...

Quite simply, anyone who enjoys videogames will appreciate GTA San Andreas on some level, no matter how hard they might try not to. There’s very little else that will compare to this in terms of scale, entertainment and the combined value that those two things bring. You’ll know vaguely what to expect, but San Andreas will blow the socks off anyone who cares. We could go on for days previewing all the minute details this game will offer, but with only a couple of weeks to go, there’s simply not enough time.

It’s massive, it’s fantastic, and we’ll be reviewing it as soon as is humanly possible.

This sounds like a whole bunch more of the same to me. I mean, OK - props to BigRockCockstar for coming up with the whole GranThefturismo concept in the first place - but they are flogging a dead horse a bit now, aren't they?

Rather than putting the considerable talents of DMA^H^H^H Rockstar North to creating original new games, they are just taking the safe and rather sad EA route of wheeling out the equine corpse, and making it up and jiggling it about a bit for that "not really dead" effect.

Sure there's a bit of new stuff in GTASA. But it's hardly a motherload is it. Yeah, I'm sure the gullible saps, sorry, fans of the series will lap it up a couple more times... but even they have to get bored eventually.

Ive never really warmed to the series and im sure nothing will change with this one either. Plenty of people love the series and fair enough to them though. If you like GTA then this is going to be a superb addition to the series.

Personally, i let it pass me by.
