      Re: Whose picking up san andreas for xbox tommorrow?

      So as I am playing this game I grow increasingly infuriated by one huge blunder on the part of Rockstar....

      They include custom soundtracks...which is great....but they fail to include a previous and next button function? wow

      They had these in GTA3 and Vice City, why did they take them out?

      Dear god...why

          that's not the point

          why should their not be a previous/next feature?

            Could anyone who have played this game on X or PS2 please answer my question about multiplayer? On the back of the box of the PS2 and Xbox version it says that 1-2 players can play. Is this true? If so, how does it work with 2 players?
            EA and 2k have the unfortunate task of trying to balance on a tightrope of fun and sim while trying not to fall 10,000 feet to their death. Instead of a safety net waiting down below there will just be angry customers quick to move out of the way and talk of their failure.

              from what I've read you share the screen with the other player, you can free roam. Now missions can be attempted that have to do with the story when you are in 2 Player mode.

                Thanks Thrasha. That makes this game even more enticing .

                  You can't do any story missions in 2 player mode. You do seperate missions like rampages.

                  If I went any bigger, it would not have properly fit with my equipment, so I had to optimize. I'm okay with it, but I also know what I'm missing with those five inches. :)

                    Re: Whose picking up san andreas for xbox tommorrow?

                    Game is a blast. I played for a little over two hours last night and I didnt even notice.

                    I got bored very quickly with Vice City. Could of been because I played GTA 3 so much and needed time off from the series, or it could of just been Vice cityitself, but I see myself playing this a ton and leading up to the release of NCAA Football.

                      Yeah Dook. I just got it and played it for 2 hours and didn't even realize 2 hours had passed.

                      It's like watching a movie. Very lifelike.

                      Man I got so lost it's not even funny. The total map area is freakishly HUGE. Does anyone know how to get back home? After finishing up with Big Smoke I got lost and all the bridges back to CJ's home are shut.

                      Also, any suggestions on where to get food or get cleaned up? I stopped at one bodega and only got snacks and a drinks. But I'm sure there are other places.

                          I don't have the game yet but I'll probably be annoyed by that too.

                            I'm still trying to listen to all the different stations. I could care less about finding my favorite song while I'm driving down the streets because there's so much more to take your mind off of next/previous songs.

                              they made it like a regular radio that people have in their cars, you cant hit next on your radio station in real life, so i guess they wanted to keep it kind of true to that. anyways, i have the ps2 version but if i had to choose i would get the pc version because of the endless amount of mods that will come out.
