Oct 4th, 2010 at 18:37:19 - Grand Theft Auto - San Andreas (PS2) |
Today is the second session of the total three sessions that I have to play. In my last session I explored how CJ got his energy by grabbing a pizza or a burger and how he got his stamina by riding a bicycle and by working out. During my game play I really felt that it was I myself who was doing all the stuff. The game looks so real. So moving on for my second session I decided to play a bunch of other missions and take a trip to Los Santos by the way the map of San Andreas looks just like Las Vegas a.k.a “Sin City” and Los Angeles combined together. The mission I played in my second session is called “Tagging up turf”. I was assigned to tag walls on Ballas territory to let them know that I was back on the Streets. In order to do that I had to take out two Ballas guys who were guarding their territory and tag the wall or else I would fail. The Ballas gang is their biggest rival and they wear violet clothes whereas Cj’s gang is in green clothes. I noticed that same as in the real life the color violet stands for darkness and black market activities its opposite is green color which stands for brightness and peace. There has always been a win for brightness over darkness and in the similar way I would take out the Ballas gang members and feel that once again brightness prevails over darkness and evil. Then the rest of the 10 minutes I roamed places and found out that you can interact with the people in the game replying them either positively or negatively on their talk. From that I noticed that life takes us the way we react to people and their impact on us and vice-versa. Later on I found out that you can do different mini missions on the way by becoming police, ambulance driver, fire fighter, burglar and so on. It was real fun playing my second session as I learnt a lot of things that I didn’t even care before in my life now started making sense like your behavior and attitude towards the people and a whole new meaning to love and hatred and respect.

Today is day one of my three 30 minute sessions of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. I had played this game a couple of years back but did not really go into details about how the people reacted in the game, what are the ethical choices that the player faces and a whole different view on my gaming experience. I started playing this game with a brand new start and the storyline goes like this: Carl Johnson’s mother is murdered and so he goes back to his old neighborhood and finds out that it has turned into worse. You can see that the cops are dirty and they force Carl to do a dirty job from the very beginning. There is a bike parked in the alley, which you can steal to start off your journey. This creates an ethical question whether to steal this bike or not. You have to take this bike as you don not have your own vehicle and it is better to steal a bike instead of someone’s car. Later on some gangsters are chasing Carl and his friends and he has to reach at his house before getting killed. Then there is a man next to Carl’s house whose name is Ryder and you have to do a bunch of missions for him. The very first Ryder’s mission took me to get a new haircut and a pizza place. At the pizza place the man behind the counter pulls out a shotgun as Ryder messes around with him and then we have to save ourselves from that guy and run as fast as possible. You then take Ryder back to his place and then the mission is complete. You start gaining respect as you do the missions, which is a pretty cool feature in the game. You feel hungry; you can gain stamina and a bunch of cool stuff on this game. You can gain stamina by hitting the gym. Then I explored a few different things during the free roam and found out that you can spray your gang symbols and logos on the designated walls and escape from the cops. You can also steal other people’s cars and go to different places and complete your missions.
