Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas

 
Pile into the chaos, ambition, and attitude of early-’90s West Coast with Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. Playing as CJ, you come home to Los Santos only to find your family torn apart, your friends scattered, and your city carved up by gangs and corruption. This iconic chapter isn’t just about crime; it’s about survival, power, and ambition in a world as funny and wild as it is gritty. There’s a reason it’s still a crown jewel of the genre—freedom and storytelling collide at a scale that rewrote what open-world games could be.
All the West Coast, All the Time
San Andreas redraws the map: you’re not limited to one city, but three—Los Santos, San Fierro, Las Venturas—each packed with its own personality. Air, sea, land—you name it, you can steal it and ride it. Respect isn’t just earned in shootouts; build muscle, customize your wardrobe, mod your rides, and shape CJ’s skills to fit your playstyle. The main story cuts deep with betrayal, laughs, and old-school satire, but the real magic lives in the distractions: casino heists, BMX jumps, train robberies, and jetpacking between rooftops. In San Andreas, the sandbox truly means “do it your way.”
