...matter.
The objective of any Grand Theft Auto game has been fairly consistent; to start from nothing and accumulate cash and status in the big city. Whether this advancement assumed the form of drug running, Mafia-style assassinations or simply ignoring the main objectives and causing chaos, there were two overriding and perpetual factors – avoiding the over-zealous police, and avoiding death. Anything else was entirely your decision.
In 2002, ...

...game I’m talking about is Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. After the success of Vice City and GTA 3 rockstar games have returned with a vengeance with the biggest instalment of GTA ever. Beginning life as a 2d overhead view game on the PlayStation One Grand Theft Auto was released around 1996 or 1997 and created a lot of controversy. For the first time you were able to go round as a proper criminal. Killing helpless civilians, dealing drugs, getting ...

Advantages: Longevity, Colourful and fun Disadvantages: Not for the faint hearted
My review of Grand Theft Auto San Andreas was initially inspired by my boyfriends heartfelt need to ignore me since he bought the game and take over our television. I decided it must be a good game and so set about unsticking him from the control pad and settling myself in his seat.
I must warn you before you read on that this is a long review, I didn’t want to miss anything out!! All the sections are headed so if you only want to read about certain ...

■The History■
Well the series of Grand Theft Auto started ten years ago now back in 1997 with the original game 'Grand Theft Auto' which was released for PC and PlayStation. This was a controversial success with the violent manner of the game both appealing to the younger age group who were not allowed it and worrying the older generatino you didn't want their children to have it. This is certainly still the way the same is seen today ...

It is the biggest game, and the most realistic game there is. It will keep the player addicted to it's great storyline, and the player will also get to know the characters personally. The game contains hundreds of secrets, (more later), and will take ages to complete the game 100%. After writing about the main factors games, (gameplay, graphics, sound and lifespan), ...

Grand Theft Auto has long been one of my favourite games and I have avidly followed all the different releases of the game and played them end to end, with and without cheats. Rockstar Games latest major release is San Andreas, which was initially released on the PS2 but has since been released on both the PC and the Xbox. I am surprised about the delay in launching to PC and XBox as I always believed GTA was originally ...

...goes by the name of Grand Theft Auto.
Back in 1997 the first GTA arrived in a blaze of controversy. It looked little like the game we know and love today being a top down 2D title. You played the part of a for-hire criminal attempting to make a name for himself. Working for a number of crime bosses you earned a reputation (and a stack of money) by completing a variety of missions. But it was the over-the-top violence in the game that caused it ...

I have played and loved ALL the GTA games. So you can imagine how excited I was when my Uncle had pre-ordered the game for my brother and I, and it came through the mailbox the day the game was released. Exited doesn't describe it. But anyway, I digress. Onto what will probably be my longest, and most detailed review yet!
You play the game as Carl Johnson, or CJ as you will come to know him. CJ comes back home, as someone murdered his mom. Whilst ...

Advantages: It's big, lasts for ages, playable and really immersive. Disadvantages: It's possibly too big, stay away if easily offended, a tad difficult at times.
...I bought a game called Grand Theft Auto. For me it was fun, and for hours I amused myself by doing missions for cash, car jacking for the fun of it and generally doing other antisocial deeds. When the mission pack came out I got that. I also bought GTA 2, GTA 3 and Vice City. GTA and GTA 2 were top down affairs and while fun, they lacked that realism. GTA 3 went third-person and added that bit more realism. Again there was something lacking - you ...
