Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas: IGN Guide

Overview
This massive game spans the entire state of San Andreas, with visits to three major cities patterned on real-life counterparts. There's Los Santos (based on Los Angeles), a gritty blur of smog and violence; San Fierro (based on San Francisco), and Las Venturas (based on Las Vegas), a midnight wonderland crawling with money, sex and corruption.

Three cities would have been more than enough to keep gamers busy for months, but Rockstar went and did it... adding huge chunks of countryside that link all the areas together. Contained within this massive landscape is a helluva lot of game. There are dozens of missions, hundreds of secrets, tons of vehicles and weapons, and all kinds of new stuff to do.

Stuff like recruiting gang members, swimming, building property, riding bikes, eating, working out, getting a haircut, attracting the ladies and much, much more. And we've got the guide to it all right here. Over the next couple of weeks, we'll be expanding on what's already here to make this the ultimate GTA: SA resource on the web.
