The End for San Andreas

Eh...GTA gets weak around playing it for 3 days. It got old quick.

Kill...steal...beat up people...ooo jet pack? Wow...okay...*puts GTA away for months and starts playing Metal Slug.*
LOL! I haven't touched San Andreas since I beat it. I've recently bought Metal Slug for PS2 and haven't been able to put down the controller! I am a huge Metal Slug fan. In HS, all I did was go to the Pizza Hut across the street, order a 3 piece breadsticks and a pepsi, get 2 bucks in quarters, and play Metal Slug and Metal Slug 2 non-stop(and the occasional 'X-Men vs. Street Fighter', but it got old and boring when I could beat it on 25 cents.)
 
Metal Slug rocks.

I had a Neo Geo CD and bought 1 and X for it, the transition wasn't that bad. But I was far too cheap to get the carts for my Neo Geo (300 bucks? Heeeellllll no....) So I'm forced to emulator playing for 3, 4, and 5.

They are by far, my most favorite 2-D shooters. Especially the inculsion of the female characters in 2 (Fio = Hawt.) It gave the game a lot of variety.

In a pissing contest, GTA doesn't holding a candle to Metal Slug or its greatness.
 
I've never been drawn to the game myself, but I can understand why and I don't think only bad people buy it.

It's just fantasy.

It's like rap. You don't have to be a gangsta or agree with anything the rapper says to enjoy it. It's just letting your mind spin different. GTA:SA let's you BE that fantasy gangsta leaving the urban barbarian lifestyle without actually hurting anyone.

Indulging in a dark video game 'hood to mix it up and get away with crime.

No more racist than Scarface is to Italians (or were they Columbian?), it's just criminal fantasy.

I'd like to give it a try, but it's just not a fantasy I'm dying to get into just yet.

Got other games to play.

Sex hack is neither here nor there for me.... could care less, and could also care less about the AO rating. It's only meant for adults anyway, so that means some 17 year old either has to wait a year or ask his buddy to pick it up for him.

I don't care about the children, because they shouldn't be playing it anyway.

So.... whatever.

Here's the video.

The only thing I really hated about GTA:SA was that I think it was quite racist. The main storyline is just a bunch of black people going round killing gangs to take back "da hood." I'll give you a missions objective, get a fucking life! It's a seriously **** game and I traded it in ages ago for another PS2 game. I officially hate the PS2, it's just not entertaining anymore. I'm taking it in tomorrow to claim a Gameboy Advance SP and a game. I can get £45 for my PS2, GBA SP's with any game go for £45. YAY! I can get a Pre-owned NES style GBA SP and any game! Perfect for the 4 and a half hour flight to Greece. :D

Well, the story wasn't exactly Shakespeare but I wouldn't label the story that way either. Especially as other then his sister, CJ ended up being the sole African-American around for a good chunk of the game.
 
Oh man! I almost forgot about Woozie!

He saved that game in my opinion. Especially the black jack part (that was hilarious.)

And I think there was one part where a blender was involved? I remember that got me rolling.

Okay, that scene is just fucking weird as hell!

Woozie was indeed a sweet addition to the game. I thought it was cool of his group to treat him as if he had his sight. Shows the kind of guy he is if he could get the respect he earned from them. I guess that's why I liked doing any missions that involved him. My fave was the first one in Las Venturas, helping him get some information out of a caught crook by tieing the guy to the hood of a car and just running crazy in the street till he squealed. :)
 
Oh yeah, that was pretty fun. But I remember Carl would always make fun of Woozie's blindness, which was funny. Like the time after they discussed the plans for taking down those mafia guys, and Carl left the room...turning the lights out...lol
