Is there an option for doing that? To increase resolution? I don't usually play PS2 games and I have to say shocked I was at how poor the resolution is and how crappy the controls are. Waiting for the PC version no longer seems so onerous!

The worst thing about the game is the bad language, my eight year old son just loves to goof around on gta3/vice city for hours on end and his mom's gonna throw a blue fit when she hears what this has to offer. There's hardly any need for realistic language in a game that doesn't offer any other kind of realism. Cartoon violence? So what.

This game is made for kids, 7 years up will want (and many get) it so it is just irreponsible of Rockstar to pretend they won't and put parents in such a difficult position. Censored version anyone? For the children?


At least they got rid of those shitty big raindrops on the screen.

There's no option to increase resolution in PS2 games, game are made with fixed resolutions. I'd love to play GTA:SA on PC because of the easier controls, but it's really not that bad to get used to.

I was playing SA with my 8 year old bro lol, he knows not to use those kinda words or he'd get an ass whooping... but saying the game is made for kids... I can't agree with you on that. The game will definitely be rated 15+ AT LEAST. It's not just kids playing video games these days.

Oh yeah, about setting houses on fire: There's a mission where you gotta throw some molotov cocktails into houses through windows, that's the only evidence I've found for that... haven't actually tried throwing them on other houses though.

Are you taking the piss? The game is rated 18 for a reason and if your going to let your child play on it that is your decision

Rockstar arent going to kurb the language just because some parents are going to let their kids play it, id let my kid play it (if he had one) but if he repeats what he hears on the game id kick his ass

Ok, i know this is gonna be a stupid n00b question, but, still...

I don't like console. Since i had a computer, i never bought another console in my life(my last one was a SNES). But i'm a big GTA fan and i don't wanna wait till q2 of 2005 for SA. So i'm thinking of getting a ps2 for SA. My question is, must you get your console modified to work with burned dvd? cause i remeber a friend of mine had to modified is PS1 to play burned CD.

Yeah you need to get your PS2 modded if you wanna play burnt games. Or you can try some swap tricks, which I haven't tried since I've got a chip in my PS2.

you can get a swapmagic disk + slidecard for about 20$ or something.
it's not a modchip but it runs 99% of the games.
only downside is having to switch disks each time you wanna play a new game.

I'm stuck there too. It's fricking impossible to aim that fast and have a good accuracy with a gamepad. Evil or Very Mad
A mouse and that mission had been a cakewalk Smile

I dont see either why rockstar took out the auto lockon for this mission................

this should be tech section though .. anyway my nephew brought his ps2 round and it wouldn't play any backups and original dvd films skipped all the time ,so i just undone the screws lifted the lid off carefully and gave the lens a wipe with a damp tea towel and dried it with dry end (all i had to hand) ... anyway after it was playing San Andreas backup and dvd films perfectly... his ps2 is an old ver4 with many years use on it

The problem is not what to shoot, the problem is to actually hit what you are supposed to shoot Smile
I think i have done this 10 times now and still haven't finished it. :/
I just cant have a good accuracy with the gamepad, it's impossible for me Crying or Very sad

By the way, how do you take over enemy "turfs"?
I have 11 "turfs" but i have no idea when i got them or what i did to get them.


edit: I almost always die shortly after the train. Is it long to go after there?

Ah where will this gangwars take place? At my place?
I once saw some other gang dudes there but i was so surprise to see them there (never happened before) so i died.

I have killed like 100 dudes splitted on two gangs. But no gangwar to be seen anywhere :/

when youre on a red sqare on the map you start killin gangmembers, (i dont see anyred squares on my map anymore, dont know why) than after some killin' it says 'a gangwar broke out' or something, than gangmembers start comin and you need to kill of them all untill the turf is yours (it will tell you when its done)

Passed that one on the first go. Shoot the tires on the bikes. I am stuck on the train mission where you have to drive smoke on the bike and he shoots the vatos off the top of the train. Passed it the first time but the PS2 froze. Now I can't pass it again.......Pissed!!!

yeah, you gotta take out those guys with a white shirt & purple pants.
you have to do it yourself too as far as i know, letting your gang shoot them will not start a gangwar (ive tried & it seemed to be going a lot quicker if i just shot em myself)
I think killing about 4 guys will start a gangwar.
BE READY THO!
always make sure you've got armor & enough guns if you wanna take over a hood.

Also, if you've had trouble passing the russian mission on the bike, you better strap up, it gets a lot wilder than that. =)
i actually found that mission to be really enjoyable, hard at first but when you start to get the hang of the aiming its pretty easy.

i'm really starting to love the game, there's so much to do!

About bulletproof vest, where the hell do i find one?
I have not seen 1 single vest :/

Somewhere close to the hangout would be good so i wont have to drive miles just to get one.
I thought the police station would have one but i cant even find the police station :/

About the gun. there is an uzi on the roof of the house right beside the basketball court at your hangout. Jump up on the cement wall and then up on the roof to get it.
