Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas

I play Xbox every now and then, usually I play long and hard for a week or so and then go 4-6 months with out playing it. I use Gamefly or Blockbuster to rent more then I buy since I can usually beat a game in a few days and then get bored with it, so if I do it pretty fast I am saving money.

I tried to rent GTA:SA when it first came out on Xbox from gamefly and even though it said they had it available they sent me a different game, so when Toni took off for Indiana I decided to go to Blockbuster and see if they had a copy and I lucked out and got the very last copy they had out.

Then Rockstar admitted it was them who installed the “sex scenes” and not some hacker that has Hillary and so many parents up in arms and forced the “adults only” rating on the game so everyone took it off the shelves and I’m sure made the cost on Ebay sky rocket.

This game is huge, as in size of the game, I have been playing long and hard on it for over a week and I think I am only 30% done and I still have not unlocked the 3rd area of the game. So I decided to keep it and let Blockbuster charge me $38 for the cost. I just called Blockbuster to ask how they do this and was told as soon as I am charged I will be able to get the manual and cover to the game. The guy told me “Smooth move, as soon as it was turned in, they have to destroy it” since they can no long rent it.

Now I would not want my 9 year old nephew to play this game, but the hidden sex scenes (which I still have not bothered unlocking) is the least of my worries. This game is set in a street gang environment, a gangsta street gang and all the racial and cuss words are used and used often, Fuck, Fag, Cocksucker, Nigger, Wetback, Shit, and every other racial and cuss word you can think of is used, not counting the game itself which is ultra violent.

But yet… all they are worried that their kids are seeing is SEX????

Gotta love the USA….

As for the game itself, I give it a 5 star rating out of 5 stars, it’s really detailed and has so much to do and see as I said, I’ve played for a long time and still have not seen half of what it offers, defiantly the best of the series.
