    Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas represents the pinnacle of the GTA series to date, giving gamers a massive criminal sandbox to play in that provides hours and hours of nefarious novelty. The biggest disappointment is how little has been done to optimise the game for the Xbox experience, instead dumping us with the same game Playstation 2 owners had 9 months ago, with a few new bugs and glitches thrown in for good measure.

    • absolutely massive, engrossing crime simulation, stunning soundtrack & voice acting, the sheer scale of the game is amazing, it'll take you weeks to finish!

    Here is a game that needs no introduction. Sure, the original top-down titles had their moments but they were never able to burst into the mainstream. Not until Rockstar broke the mould with Grand Theft Auto 3 for PS2, had a game taken the world by storm in so many different ways. Since then, Grand Theft Auto has been the most successful franchise of the modern era. Personally, I've been a staunch opponent of the series. Read more
