Yo, GTA San Andreas came out back in 2004, made by Rockstar North and put out by Rockstar Games. It’s like the seventh GTA game overall and the fifth big one after Vice City in 2002. The whole thing takes place in this made-up state called San Andreas that’s basically California and Nevada, and it’s set in 1992. You play as Carl Johnson, everybody calls him CJ. He comes back to Los Santos after his mom gets killed, finds out his old gang (Grove Street Families) is falling apart, so he starts putting it back together while beefing with crooked cops, rival gangs, and slowly figures out who really killed his mom.

You see everything in third-person and you can run around or drive pretty much anywhere. The map is huge - you got Los Santos (that’s LA), San Fierro (San Francisco), and Las Venturas (Vegas). Rockstar actually went to those cities, took pictures, talked to real LA people like DJ Pooh, Mister Cartoon, and Estevan Oriol to make it feel legit. A lot of the story comes from real stuff that happened in LA: Bloods vs Crips, the crack mess in the 90s, the ‘92 riots after Rodney King, and that whole Rampart police scandal.

They had about 75 people working on it for almost two years and dropped it first on PS2 in October 2004. Critics loved the characters, the story, how big and free the world felt, and how good it looked for the time. Some people complained about certain missions being annoying or buggy, and yeah, a few got mad about how it showed race and gangs. Then the whole “Hot Coffee” thing happened - somebody found a hidden sex minigame and everybody lost their minds, so for a minute it got slapped with an Adults Only rating until they patched it.

Still, it won a ton of game of the year awards and most people say it’s one of the best games ever made, especially from the PS2 era. It came to PC and Xbox in 2005, got mobile versions later, and they did a remaster in 2021 (the Definitive Edition). It’s the best-selling PS2 game ever - something like 17.5 million copies just on PS2 and over 27 million total. Crazy numbers. Then GTA IV came after that in 2008.

Man, playing this back in the day was something else. Riding bikes down Mount Chiliad, doing drive-bys to “Still D.R.E.” blasting, getting fat eating at Cluckin’ Bell… peak childhood right there.
