GTA: San Andreas - Definitive

Rockstar Games

About this game

Five years ago, Carl ‘CJ’ Johnson escaped the haze of Los Santos, San Andreas...a city tearing itself apart with gang trouble, drugs, and corruption. Now, it's the early 90s. CJ’s got to go home - his mother has been murdered, his family has fallen apart, and his childhood friends are all heading towards disaster. On his return to the neighborhood, a couple of cops frame him for homicide, forcing CJ on a journey that takes him across the entire state of San Andreas, to save his family and to take control of the streets in the next iteration of the series that changed everything.

Ratings and reviews

I'm having issues with dialog skipping when not in a cutscene. It's making it very hard to keep up what's going on in the story. Please fix. I'm playing on a Galaxy S25 Ultra Update: Clearing the cashe might have "fixed" the issue, but I suspect it would only be temporary. I'm also annoyed the email listed for support returns this message: THIS MAILBOX IS OUTGOING ONLY AND IS NOT MONITORED. YOUR MESSAGE WILL NOT BE READ. The email also included a link to Rockstar support.

All in all, it runs smooth, it's very playable, and it works with backbone one, so that's great. My only real complaint is that, without a controller, you can't honk your horn, there's no button for it available in on screen controls. This might seem like a weird complaint, but my favorite thing ti do in SA is run firefighter and paramedic missions, which just don't feel right without the sirens

It performs great on my standard S23. I wouldn't recommend buying it if you have a low-mid range device unless they find a way to optimize it more. I still suggest buying a PS2/Xbox or PC version for a more genuine experience. Alternatively it looks sort of decent on switch with downgraded lighting and resolution, but it's more broken and doesn't have the classic lighting settings (as of yet)
