Gameplay: Outstanding in every way. The annoying targeting system has been replaced with a completely easier and more fun to use Targeting System. Also, calling San Andreas big is an understatement, it's massive. There's so much to do, so much to see, it really feels like your a part of the world. Other strong points include a great story, fun missions, awesome new vehicles and bikes, and other great things that make this game so much fun. Graphics: This is what keeps San Andreas back from nearly being perfect. The frame rate some times gets sloppy, and theres some pop ins here and there. Sound: Oscar Worthy voice acting by great stars, including Samuel L. Jackson, James Woods, and more. Some of the gun sounds are a bit off from the real thing. Value: Just playing through the main missions takes you about 50-60 hours! You'll also miss a whole lot (such as side missions). You'll be playing story mode over and over and over and over. Tilt: An outstanding name that's not only the best GTA in the series so far, but the best PS2 game to date.
