Agreed. I like the way your homies can blast gats out the car while you are driving. The Uzzi mission where you are being chased by the guys with a truck while smoke rides his bike is sick.
All of the GTA's are good, This one is better.
The first GTA I got into was GTA2

Seriously SA is the shit. Many, many improvements over the previous chapters. My favorite parts of the game are: Skydiving/Base Jumping, Freeway pileups, Jetpack, Harrier, and double fisted shooting. Also the LA Riots.
However badass, there could have been improvements. I've finished the game to the credits and I'm at about 70% of completion, and in my opinon the story got sort of weak. It seemed like the designers spent about half of their time on the first Los Santos part of the game (which is tiiiiight) and the other half on the whole rest of the map. Also you never really rise above the level of 'street thug'. In vice city you got to TAKE OVER the town and become a serious baller, but throughout San Andreas it seems like you're just doing hits for other people. And whats up with only being able to acquire gang territory in Los Santos? I would still be taking over hood by hood if I had the chance.
Otherwise the game is some hot shit. I'd like to see more games of this scale with more interesting/cohesive stories.

The whole game actually seemed pretty Anti-drug to me. Sure they mention drugs, and your homeys smoke weed. But your only real homey that smokes ends up being an enemy after a while. Also whenever anyone offers your character a hit of bud in the cutscenes he turns it down like, "naw fuck that shit". There IS the old hippy, but you have to TORCH his marijuana farm and you end up using his pot to FRAME someone for possession. Also a lot of the game is about disrupting the cocaine trade and attacking dealers. Even a lot of the songs on the rap station have lyrics along the lines of "I dont smoke weed and I can't stand sess"... After a while the whole thing comes across as a deliberate anti drug message, no doubt in order to get ESRB or whoever off R* 's back about the violence, racism, degredation to women, etc etc., all of which for some reason is more acceptable than recreational drug use.

Shooting a man in the face at point blank range and then yanking his headless body out of his car before stealing it is ok. Drug use is not ok.
That's my America.

He says something like "Want some mushrooms, DMT, opium?" to figure out if your character is legit Its the first mission with the guy, I wish I had the quote but its something like that.
The game is awesome, jetpack is great along with gang wars and modding your cars.
