I must say San Andreas is probably the best game on the ps2. I love the gameplay where i will normally get in shootouts and just raise complete mayhem. I love the new weapons that were also added like the Javelin missle launcher, the satchel charges, and my personal favorite the Minigun. The newer features like car modification, going into resteraunts, shopping for clothing, and also getting haircuts makes the game feel more realistic and makes it a greater overall experience. Overall this game is a must buy, and ever since i bought my 360 i've missed going around as CJ teraing up the streets of San Andreas, but you never know, they should make a remake.
What's great about it: Gameplay, music, storyline, new features,
What's not so great: Graphics arent the greatest, has some glitches.
