(Sept 30)
I began playing in the mission mode as Calvin Jr also known as 'CJ'. He recently got back to San Andres from the east coast because of his mothers recent death. I later found out she was killed. As he is on his way home in a taxi, crooked cops stop the taxi and pull CJ out. They plant a gun used to kill another cop on him and let him out in a rivalry gang territory. My character is already face with a dilemma before the game even started.
I noticed that their demeanor probably came from stereotypes of blacks and hispanics and I hope people don't get the perceived notion that all blacks and hispanics act this way that live in not so well neighborhoods. CJ clothes were baggy, every other word was a curse word or slang, and he had a bad attitude. He really showed players that he was from the hood and even having the cop be Samuel L. Jackson voice. Very nice touch of black.
CJ recently found out that his mother died and came home to be with his family. I think that was a morally just thing to do. You always want to be their for your family because your family was their for you. That I respect, even CJ wanting to avenge her death and make her killer pay. I honestly would have done the same thing. I know that his mother's killer is still out there. I know when it comes to certain areas of a city, police officers don't do everything they are suppose to do to fight crime so I can assume that CJ's mothers killer is still out their. For that matter, since the justice system won't help you have to take it into your own hands. As Mill would look at like, more people would be satisfied with the death of CJ's mothers killer than for him to still be alive so killing him would be justified.
Now it is my turn to play.
~I first took the bike and got to a friends house by the name of Big Sweet.
~He then took me to see my mothers grave and brother.
~I drove, but quickly noticed following any of the road rules was not part of the game.
~When leaving the burial site, we were in the heat of a drive by and the rival gang blew up Big Sweet's car.
~We now have to bike to get back home but the gang is on us shooting at us and I am losing health.
~I try and keep up with Big Sweet and get back home.
~I then go with my brother to get my hair cut and something to eat to survive. As I get pizza, he comes in and wants to rib the place. My character didn't agree with that and told him to stop but before we could do that the pizza guy pulled out a shot gun and tried to shoot. We quickly left.
~Before I ended the game I headed back home and explored the empty house.
