I think it's a combination of the weird trajectory R* makes you use, the artificially increased health of the Vagos, the fact the mission even has a fail condition (since the tracks are blocked off by this point in the game) and the snide remark that Big Smoke always gives, since it was his job to shoot. The mission has several fundamental flaws and clearly wasn't played enough in the beta stage.
>>16230377 (checked)
I think it was just that one mission where the "fuel" was in reality a timer. Tried so many strategies to "save" fuel such as coasting & diving only to look like an idiot when full throttle was always the way. Rest of Zero's missions were quite enjoyable from my perspective.

It's a pity SA was so woke, so CJ and his nigger brother are shown as being two good boy dindunuffins instead of the retarded gangbangers they ought to have been.
It's also the game that started the whole "protagonist is not a bad goy" narrative with GTA. Before SA both Claude and Tommy personalities (complete sociopaths) fit the gameplay. Meanwhile in SA one moment CJ is against selling drugs, and the other he's running grandma over in his stolen vehicle, and he's on a noble quest to exonerate his brother.

Even by playing it "authentically" and not killing anyone you're told not to kill, your death toll is still rivalling that of the worst serial killers in American history.

Oddly there are a few if you check Deus Ex videos, but I think it's either a case of crowd following, irony, or fans of the series genuinely unaware that it isn't because Deus Ex has suddenly become popular.

I never understood the appeal of GTA. The story in these games are always trash, gameplay is mediocre in a lot of ways, everything looks bland as shit and so on. Sure, you can go around destroying shit and end up fighting the army like it's an endurance game but once you're dead you're back to the beginning. It's by far the most engaging thing you can do in those games since "playing gangster" is mostly just you doing dumb fetch quests. Do you just repeat that ad nauseum?
I played 2, 3, LCS, VCS, SA, 4 and got bored of all of them within a week or less. Chinatown Wars was probably the most entertaining one I've played since the combat was actually entertaining and you can actually decrease stars by taking down cop cars.

To be fair, back when GTA III, VC and SA came out there really weren't that many games that had an open-world as (relatively) complex and accessible as GTA games did.
Nowadays plenty of games use the formula and it all just feels very stale, especially since Rockstar seem unable to improve the core formula and simply opt to throw more pointless shit on top. GTAIV and V are especially bad at this considering just how much money Rockstar has likely wasted on all the faux TV shows that appear in the games. I'm not playing the game to watch TV in it.
Then again, I do admit that the internet surfing in GTAIV was great, but I'm a sucker for shit like that, and it's not done nearly enough in games (the only other franchise I can think of that did something similar was Front Mission).

Agreed though. Playing multiplayer mods on my computer with a 6600GT was a blast. I remember they had a bunch of cars and ramps set up at the top of Mt Chilliad to dick around with. Also you could teleport to the top of the golden gate bridge to fight people and try to knock them off, among other minigames. The RP servers with player cops were neat too. I also remember people online teaching me how to grind rails on motorcycles. Shit was fun. Vice City Multiplayer was too. Had some good destruction derbys in that.

The train had a speed multiplier and if you play too well and were too close to it the train just accelerated the fuck out so fast that there was no way to follow.
You actually had to be bad at the game and follow from a long distance in order for the train to slow down and wait for you. That was the only way to finish the mission

To me most of the difficulty in III and VC came from the crippled controls. The devs barely knew what a right stick was at the time. Funnily enough even though the PC versions had controls that were crippled in another way, but at least I had an easier time with things like navigating on tiny wooden houses on water to get hidden packages without drowning due to the mouse offering smooth turning.

I know there's a resident poster on here that prefers 1 & 2 to the rest of the franchise, but 3 as well? You are aware that Vice City is just a lightly reskinned version of III with far superior capabilities, right? The best way to play III isn't even by playing the original game; it's by downloading a total conversion that goes on top of VC, see vid related. You can ride bikes, fly aircraft, bail out of a moving vehicle, and enjoy a wider variety of weapons, especially on the melee side of things. And visually there is minimal difference between the mod and actual III. Most casuals probably wouldn't be able to tell they weren't playing a highly modded version of III, the two engines are that similar to one another with everything stripped down. One's just more finished than the other.
There are few games that are truly representative of their generation. Nobody would argue Super Mario Bros. was the game of the third generation. It wasn't the most expansive, nor did it push its console to the absolute limit. But it resonated like no other title did before or since, and that's all that mattered in the end. When it comes to the fourth or fifth, the lines get a little blurred. There are probably 50 - 100 games of both gens that could claim to be the best in that respect. Whether you back Sonic, SMW, OoT, GoldenEye, Perfect Dark, MGS or even Gran Turismo is out of the question. But for the sixth, there's only a handful of viable competitors, and only one which it could ultimately be, and that's San Andreas. You can name anything you want, nothing will come close in terms of cultural impact. Half Life 2 was the only title which could even touch it, but that has the significant advantage of being open source, hence all its derivations e.g. GMod. SA was the game of the sixth gen, like it or not. I get this board has an established cult of virtue-signallers who won't play anything made outside Japan, which is incidentally the only country it was a non-entity, but what Western game has ever made it there and by proxy, what "mature" game?
http://archive.is/S4MWh
Not even DOOM is on the Top 100 all-time list. Not even Minecraft, and Tetris just squeezes in at #52 with the DS port rather than the Gameboy original, which would make you think it's something to do with Western games in general. But it's not nationalistic favoritism, else surely one of the Yakuza, Biohazard/Resident Ebiru or MGS titles would be there, and none of them are. It seems to be because since the word "infantilized" is too degrading IMHO Japanese society has brought to heart a completely different i.e. non-jewed set of societal expectations than the rest of the world, and its effects are only just being felt. Nips genuinely prefer younger, safer content than the rest of the world, regardless of where it came from. And with that, I digress.

Consoles that didn't have San Andreas wanted it; consoles that did wanted more. That's why Sony commissioned two exclusive titles after their own in-house clone The Getaway which was massively underrated IMHO wasn't as much of a success as they had initially hoped.
Though San Andreas is far from the only title to boast this achievement, there were as many 8 year olds who snuck to their friend's houses as there were 40 year olds who called in sick just to play the game on launch day. This was long before any of the post-ironic nostalgiafagging that started about 5 - 10 years ago. IV and V in comparison were largely sought by no-one older than 25 at the time of their release.
And of course, you have the modding possibilities. Basically everything but the core gameplay mechanics have been reverse-engineered at this point in time. You can augment San Andreas' map with every other map from the 3D era, as Underground has proven. You can color the lands in neon green and the sky hot pink, and then have it rapidly cycle through a triptastic rainbow which burns your eyes out after mere seconds of exposure. You can add thousands of vehicles, weapons and pedestrian types. You can add fully-fledged radio stations. And of course, you can make the player character do anything you want. Make him fly like Superman. Turn him into a slav. Make him an unstoppable monster. Even though it's closed-source, it along with V are among the most flexible of any game engine out there. Despite the hardcoded limits, people have found ways to make it seemingly limitless.
And as one of the posts indicated, it is still the most popular offline game in countries like Brazil, Indonesia and Russia. Online, it's the most popular non-contemporary online title. And it wasn't even intended for online play to begin with. To this day 1 million people still play it on a regular basis. That's still more than many games which will release this year will ever see. And I'm willing to bet that in 10 years' time, when the game's 25 years old, there will still be at least 100,000 people playing worldwide. And that's just playing it extra safe; I'd be quite frankly surprised if the player count ever dropped below 500k. Only way I see that happening is if R* release one of the 3D games' source code, which is increasingly unlikely as (((T2))) progressively pry into everything the company does.

The whole point of this thread was to point out the sheer time duration since the release of a global phenomenon to the extent that people who never played the title in its original form on its intended hardware are now considerable enough of a demographic that it is being considered the norm. On a console as "recent" as the PS2, no less, and to the extent that the "original" version is now considered abnormal. It's like if people played a cut-down version of OoT on the Wii or Android before the N64, which we know isn't the case though I guess emulation had a hand in that, even if it was released in its uncut entirety on the PC. bad example I know It makes no sense, and if anything highlights a normalfag's increased dependency on online services such as Steam over offline physical copies.
In my opinion, on the consoles, San Andreas wasn't even the best sandbox crime action/adventure title out there, it was Driver: Parallel Lines. But because it wasn't as much of a sensation, and more importantly, lacked a modding community, can't even be mentioned in the same breath as SA.
Driv3r being a commercial and critical flop even though I enjoyed it drove heh most of the normalfags away from the franchise, and as a result Reflections didn't feel anywhere near as much pressure to make a worldbeating game as they did with their predecessor, and so PL was just about perfect. The police wasn't too overpowered. No matter how bad you were, you could always get away if you were sufficiently determined. Killing people was that much more of an offense. And the multiple time periods was a stroke of genius. Shame they never made a sequel, nor another true Driver title. All they made was a Need For Speed title with no tuning when they released San Francisco, then they put the series to sleep.

I'm as hardline as you can get. I despise the aut-right civnat circlejerk with a fiery passion, since it has turned the right into a joke. The real nationalist right. The one which deals solely in fact through the likes of the Bell Curve, terrorist statistics and the kikes at the heart of it all, and the cold, hard truth that XY can never be XX, and vice versa. But /pol/ has a tendency to blame video games, in particular San Andreas, far quicker than it is to blame anything else. And quite frankly, I had enough of that shit from my adult peers in the early '00s. I don't need a second dose from the people I once called my friends following Fox's exploding van making us out to be the greatest villain of them all. I've seen SA specifically mentioned as the #1 cause of societal degeneration far more than say, American Pie or 50 Shades. And it's no doubt fuelled by the main character and the overarching storyline. Never seen them mention Vice City or so much as III, which were far more instrumental in populating the brand. They've had a chip on their shoulder for us ever since the honeybadger thundercunts used us as a soapbox, even though most of those fags fucked off for cuckchan and plebbit years ago.

That's just the nature of things getting older. Hell, my dad's weirded out by how much the Mario series has changed.
He was outright shocked when he saw Odyssey; he beat the original Super Mario Bros when he was thirty-something.
I played the entire Deus Ex series except for Mankind Divided. I actually liked Max's OW vids just because they made blizzard fans suffer.

My urban individual of African descent with a low IQ. I love that mod, it keeps a design tradition that's long gone by invoking PS2 esque map design.
One reason I love going back to exploring the SA map is that the crude amount detail in many places gives it a certain charm you don't get from photorealism.

It's a crude concept. Hell this image is already outdated, the Chicago equivalent for instance no longer has the stupid Mainland Liberty name and has been redesigned from scratch. The whole thing will end up looking more organic if it's ever finished.

SA was wasted potential: the game, it sure was fun on release but reading about all its cut content makes me realize how much better it could've been. The Things To Do In San Andreas mod restored much of it but its buggy as hell.

I wonder how much SA could have had if PS2 was not the leading platform during the 6th gen (or had specs at least on par with Gamecube). It's still a great game, better than with V at least which was no fun at all to me even on release and also has a shitton of cut content (as well as aspects that would have sucked anyway without 100% overhaul such as the map design).

This is very incorrect both games sold extremely well to a ton of different age demographics. You can see in this chart there's a spike with 55-60 year olds for some reason. The highest point is in 25-34

GTA has a pretty broad appeal. It can be enjoyed by kids who just want destruction, fags like myself who like a silly story with varied missions while also appreciating little useless environmental details and older guys who want to take out their frustration on the society.

Vice City doesnt even have any proper slopes, just driving the nrg500 in SA has more fun in it than all of vice city thanks to the superior map - mostly thinking of los santos and surrounding area.

As great as VC is its map is just the shittiest in all of PS2 GTAs. Could have had more interesting stuff than a massive useless beach, a useless airport or empty massive backalleys (then again, it only took them 9 months to make this game).

Yeah no. Disc rot has become a meme when the reality is it affects only discs that weren't properly pressed. In other words Gamecube, and a lot of Sega games. But the chance of encountering it so fucking slim that it has become a bogeyman that kikes use to discourage outsiders from getting into retro gaming. people like you, you stupid nigger.

I played GTA3 when it came out, but I never played SA or Vice and just skipped to GTA4 - because California and Florida are both settings for faggots.

I didn't like San Andreas much because I'm not really into black gangster stuff.
On PC you have mods that put the old soundtrack in. Licensed music is great idea until you realize that not even Rockstar can defeat the copyright Jew.

I played gta sa so much when I was a kid.
It was the first game I played from beginning to end more than 3 times and once in one sitting.
It's such a great game.
fbfd7c No.16253511
I remember playing the fuck out of it back when i was a kid on one of my old PS2's. After i broke my third PS2, my dad refused to buy me any more of them, so i didn't play GTA SA for many years until i eventuallly bought it for the PS3 i have right now. I can agree, the old version was far better. I do like the new controls for the PS3 ported version, but everything else sucks. The old glitches were patched, the orange skies are gone, and it just feels worse. Sure, the textures look a bit better and the framerate was boosted up to 60FPS, but it just isn't the same. Becuase i never had or really want a PC or next-gen console, i'll never be able to mod it, but…whatever. I've beaten the game and there is really nothing left to do. Granted, i refuse to play games without cheats, if they have them. I beat Saints Row 4, GTA IV, and GTA SA all using cheats, becuase the game isn't fun without them.
