No way! San Andreas is the best PS game I've ever played in my life! (also the first, so I might actually be just a little biased :p)
It was my first sandbox game on the PS2 and man did i play that game to no end! Best sandbox game ever!!

Same here! After all these years I still remember the cheat codes for the PS2! R1 R2 L1 X L D R U L D R U and  Triangle Triangle Square O X L1 L1 D U!  :omg:

I stopped playing San Andreas around 10 minutes into it, I can't stand this gangsta rap shit vibe.
I didn't play 4 cause I deeply lost interest in GTA after San Andreas.
After Red Dead Redemption I am pretty sure I will never ever play a better open world game so I haven't really been following news on GTA V.
We'll see how it looks like after they release some game play footage.
That's too bad. While the gangsta vibe is obviously a integral part of the game, it moves to the background for a whole lot of it. About 25% of the way through, you get dumped off in the woods and have to start from scratch in various new environs. You spend a lot of time working for Peter Fonda's stoned ass in San Francisco. James Woods is great as a borderline insane government agent who trains you as a pilot out in the desert. Crazed Mexican chick Catalina is a freaking riot. There's a 5 or 6 mission story arc around a casino heist once you move to Vegas. You also have some run-ins with previous characters including Rosenberg (one of my favorites) and some of the Lovefist guys. I'd say that half the game takes place completely outside of the hood.

As for finishing, SA is the only one of the franchise that I ever bothered to get 100% completion on. Even the side jobs were entertaining.

i want to be able to murder somebody in a dark alley without the cops magically knowing that I did it. But I think they mentioned at some point that they were going to fix that. I know the first thing I'm doing in GTA V is murdering hikers at dusk.

I felt like such a sociopath typing that up.

Something else I hadn't considered before is that there's no crossover between IV and any of the previous games, save perhaps Lazlow who hasn't been funny since he was being abused on V-Rock.  All of the other games existed in the same universe with common characters, so you were always finding out other things about their past and future. San Andreas showed the latter years of some of the Vice City guys (Rosenberg, Dwayne & Jethro, Lovefist) and the early years of some of the III characters (Maria, Salvatore Leone). Then you had the Claude/Catalina thing which was an important, yet never explained aspect of III. Even the radio DJ's had some continuity, with

IV started an entirely new world, which sadly, just wasn't all that interesting.

Hitman: Absolution was able to help me fulfill my psychopathic desires, hopefully this one too.

One of the things GTA IV had that made me feel like a twisted person was when you hit someone, how the blood ended up on the hood of the car. I always tried to see how much blood I could get on my car.

....And then go to the carwash

I try my best to avoid pedestrians when I'm actually involved in story stuff. If I just fire it up for some mayhem, it's open season. That's usually when I'll drive my car around Central Park looking for those Tai Chi dorks.

This game looks fucking awesome. That said, I am in no way excited or anticipating it at all.  :lol It's weird, every GTA game I've ever played with the exception of Vice City has been nothing but a time-killer and screwing around. IV, I think I played all of 10 or so hours of storyline and missions and furthering the game's progress, and the rest of the 90 hours spent was nothing but dicking around the city, screwing up fools, driving around, etc. etc. I think that with this one as well, all of the little nuances with the pedestrians and the mechanics of the actual gameplay, as well as the secrets they place around the world itself will be what I play this game for.

I never was one to be into the more 'real-world' games such as this, or war games, or anything that makes me realize I'm playing a game and I'm not immersed in a fantasy world; I just don't get into it like I do my precious RPG/Adventure/Other miscellaneous fantasy games. GTA is odd in that you can do whatever the hell you want, but it's all confined to (mostly) real-world physics pushed to their limits and being fantastical in that state of the world. It's awesome but I really couldn't give a shit less about the story, the characters, what happens to them, what they do or where they go; and for that matter, what happens at the end of it all. Truly, I just want to fuck shit up. GTA is perfect for that; so in that regard, I guess I'm somewhat excited. But the real excitement won't come until I actually start doing it.

Good stuff in the world of GTA. It says a lot that the thing that gets me excited is being able to smash my car at the perfect angle across a guard-rail and have my character fly through the windshield, over a pond, and into another car and somehow I still survive...only to climb atop the highest building possible and jump off.  :metal :tup

I really hope the handling of the cars is "fixed" for GTA V. I've never had as much trouble getting around in a game that involves driving as I did in GTA IV. Even after a few dozen hours I was still a shit driver, I just couldn't get used to the way the cars handled at all. I'll be pretty annoyed if the same horrific handling is present in all of the V generation of games.

Yeah the acceleration was amazingly sluggish and the understeer was intense. Really hope they're fixing that.

It would also be nice to have an option to change gear and a speedometer option would be cool too.

I too did not have any driving issues, although in switching from GTA4 back to Vice City the turning is hilariously overcompensating.
