Plot Summary

Carl Johnson returns from Liberty City to his home in the ghetto of Los Santos following his brother Brian's accidental death. Known as CJ to his friends, Carl arrives for the funeral, which is overshadowed by his elder brother Sweet Johnson's blaming the death on him. Unity is demanded when shortly after, the pair's mother is murdered. Faced with the threat of opposition gangs, and lost respect on the streets, Sweet, Carl, and friends Smoke and Ryder join together to recreate their previous clique, The Orange Grove Families (OGF). A reluctant Carl is provoked back into street life by two corrupt police officers, Frank Tenpenny and Eddie Polaski, bent on causing chaos for OGF. Unfortunately for the 'Grove, events take many twists, and Carl is brought back into a life he'd probably rather he'd left behind.

Player Features Eating - In San Andreas you have the ability to eat. You can either become very fat, or very skinny. Although, if you do become too fat you can go to a gym to work out in. Be careful though, if you do become too fat, because you will have a disadvantage in fights, and pedestrians will call you a fat bastard. Heh.

Robbing - Are you low on money? Then perform a robbery! Although, it's not as easy as it sounds. You can only perform them at night, so there is a good chance the victim could be asleep. During the robbery there shall be a meter on the screen to show you how noisy you have been. The quieter you were during the robbery, the better a reward you shall receive.

Swimming - Finally, your character will no longer be afraid of water! Now you can swim in the ocean, and also do different moves. Also, its not just you that cab swim! Tourists can also, so we'll see if you can kill them!

Clothes - In past GTA's you have had to wear the same old clothes, although, in Vice City you could wear other clothes, but they would go back to your old ones when you got killed. But in San Andreas you can choose your clothes. You can go to different shops, some cheap, and some expensive. Some of the clothes shops in San Andreas are Binco, SubUrban, and ProLaps.
