With my second hour playing the game, I started a new file. I forgot how above average the acting/writing was. As far as I can tell, Rockstar captured the gang mentality very well. The introductory cut-scene provides the player with a lot of background information. Having beaten the game several times, I knew where everything was leading. I understood the motivation of the officers better. I never would have guessed that Big Smoke would eventually betray CJ. The story was written very well in that there were many unanticipated twists and turns.
The game-play that corresponds to the first cut-scenes is great because it offers new GTA players a tutorial and shows old GTA players all the cool new stuff you can do with San Andreas. Overall, GTA San Andreas is a great game that is so easy to play and get into that even a small child could catch on very quickly. **Note: game not intended for small children.

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas is a tribute to the GTA series. After beating it three or four times, I thought I would never touch this game again. However, there isn't a definite, identifiable type of game exhaustion associated with this game. Of course the story ends, but the player can more or less make his own story. You can decide which properties to buy and which mini-challenges to complete, etc. I spent my first hour of this game playing my old file. It is such an impressive gameworld that I was discovering places I'd never seen before.
