Features

Five years ago, Carl Johnson escaped from the pressures of life in Los Santos, San Andreas, a city tearing itself apart with gang trouble, drugs, and corruption. Now he’s back in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas™.

But Carl's family is in dire straits and his friends are headed for disaster. To make matters worse, he's just been framed for homicide.

Join Carl on his journey across the state of San Andreas as he fights to save his family and take back control of the streets.
  • Sights: Become part of Carl's world through the astounding graphics of the Xbox®. Experience dynamic weather, from sunshine to smog. Relive the last 30 seconds of outrageous gameplay with instant replays!
  • Sounds: Listen to San Andreas, now sonically invigorated for the Xbox. Use custom soundtracks to craft your own personalized radio station of early 1990s anthems.
  • Space: Explore three huge cities on San Andreas, an island almost six times the size of Vice City. Visit deserts, rolling countryside, truck stops, secret military base, forest, mountains, and dozens of small towns.
  • Speed: Take control of BMX bikes, motorcycles, aircraft, trucks, cars, boats, hovercraft, and more.
  • Style: Pimp your ride with a custom sound system, nitro packs, rims, bumpers, upholstery, and other options.
  • Sports: Play mini-games like basketball, pool, dancing, low-rider hopping, Vegas games, and old-school arcade games.
  • Support: Use two-player cooperative mode for certain objectives.
Available for download oct 20th.

Hey that's great, but I own the PC version so I'll skip this probably.
Microsoft should release an achievement patch for all Xbox Originals and I would buy it

I'm sure they would have if it were that easy. That little bit of extra effort would have made sales of these games soar.

Nice to hear about San Andreas. It's still 17.99 used so I might just give it a shot, since everyone talks so highly of it.
