Coming from a San Andreas veteran with thousands of hours on PS2, this game was my childhood. I grew up with it, learned its map by heart, knew every mission, every shortcut, every hidden collectible. I’ve 100% completed San Andreas many times, and I’ll continue to do so over time like ALL GTAs. ST to profile for more OT U. Let’s get the honest part out of the way first: the original San Andreas is still better. The atmosphere, the lighting, the character models, the overall vibe — the original versions (especially PS2) just feel right. There’s a certain grit and charm that the Definitive Edition doesn’t fully capture. If you played it back in the day, you’ll immediately notice the differences. Some visual changes feel off, some animations lack weight, and certain details that gave the original its soul just aren’t the same. That said… the Definitive Edition is still fun. At its core, this is still San Andreas, and that core is untouchable. The massive map spanning Los Santos, San Fierro, and Las Venturas, the countryside, deserts, forests, and small towns — it’s still one of the most ambitious open worlds ever made. The sense of progression, starting as nothing and slowly building CJ into a kingpin with skills, properties, weapons, and respect, is still incredibly satisfying. The gameplay systems remain legendary: RPG-style progression with skills like driving, flying, shooting, stamina, strength Territory wars and gang control Property ownership and side businesses Countless side activities: gyms, casinos, trucking, taxis, vigilante, firefighter, paramedic, collectibles, schools, and more The story still holds up extremely well. CJ is one of Rockstar’s best protagonists, and the narrative about family, betrayal, corruption, and power is timeless. Characters like Big Smoke, Ryder, Sweet, Tenpenny, and Pulaski are still iconic, and the dialogue and writing remain top-tier. From a modern perspective, the Definitive Edition does bring some positives: Higher resolution visuals Updated controls that feel closer to newer GTA titles Smoother overall experience on modern systems It makes replaying the game more comfortable, especially on PC. Other than modded versions (which I’ve played tons of), this is genuinely a good way to experience San Andreas in a new way while still respecting the original structure of the game. Yes, veterans will notice the flaws. Yes, the original still wins in terms of vibe and authenticity. But despite that, I still found myself getting pulled back in — doing side missions, grinding stats, chasing 100%, and just existing in the world again. San Andreas has always been about freedom. Freedom to play how you want, roleplay your CJ, take your time, or rush the story. That magic is still here, and no remaster can erase how special this game is. If you’re new to San Andreas, this is a perfectly fine way to experience a legendary game. If you’re a long-time fan like me, you’ll critique it — but you’ll still enjoy it. At the end of the day, San Andreas is San Andreas. The original may be better, but the Definitive Edition is still a fun revisit — and I’ll keep coming back and although done on all platforms many times, even here now, 100%ing it again and again, just like I always have. Respect to the OG. Still fun in DE. MTC OT EEPI U ST!
I didn’t get to play this game during my childhood, and looking back, I think that was for the best. I used to dismiss the GTA franchise as an overrated playground for casual players. Instead, I’ve found one of the most biting, raw, and brilliant sociopolitical satires in contemporary culture. It operates as a ruthless deconstruction of the "American Dream", exposing the hypocrisy of modern society, institutional corruption, and consumerism. Rockstar didn’t just build a map. They created an interactive museum of the early 90s, where every radio station, pedestrian conversation, and gritty environment seamlessly transports you back to that specific era. Unlike other story-driven games that force artificial melodrama to make you cry, San Andreas operates under a cold, unvarnished realism. The betrayals and tragedies happen bluntly, without romanticizing the criminal life. It’s a dry, cynical reality that doesn’t try to emotionalize the experience, but deeply impacts an adult player who actually understands the subtext. This game completely blew my mind. There is an incredible, Almost hypnotic sense of freedom when you are speeding down the highway on a motorcycle, popping a wheelie while "Eminence Front" by The Who plays on the radio. Yet, that precise loop of digital adrenaline forces me to reflect on my own reality. It is a bitter irony. The game parodies a broken society, while making you experience a raw sense of liberty that highlights our own chains. It reminds me that our perceived "freedom" outside of a corporate work schedule is often nothing more than a well-crafted illusion, a brief respite before being dragged back into the machinery that keeps us chained. A historical masterpiece that scales perfectly with maturity.
i was between 12 to 15 when i played this in 2005-2007, we loved it, i was in a boarding school from 12 to 16 years old, and on the weekends, if your parents sent your stuff, we could get little TVs and our consoles out of storage and play from friday afternoon until sunday afternoon, and the people in charge of us had NO IDEA what we were playing in our rooms lol. There would be 8 of us in a little 2 person room all taking turns lol, man those were great times. The game shows its age now, and i find quite a few things annoying af, i bought it for nostalgia, and i got what i wanted. Not a bad game by any means, it oozes nostalgia for me.
