Folks, you do realise that san andreas is NOT exclusive to the ps2???? I'm surprised at how many of you think it is! The pc ver is due out a few months after the ps2 version whenever that may be! I,m looking forward to it. Anyone know what the pc release is for driver 3??
The car in front is absolutely unique apart from the one behind it which is exactly the same. Murray Walker |

@boyi, i think the helicopter has to be still before you can bail out, i.e in the air but not moving forwards or backwards. How do you get the apache helicopter without getting 100 hidden Packages?

You also get the apache when you have completed the main story missions, i.e. when you've killed Lance Vance and the Mafia guy at the mansion on starfish island. See www.gamefaqs.com for details on how and when this happens.

E3 2004: UPDATED: GTA: SAN ANDREAS - FIRST PLOT DETAILS!
Not many, but some. Here's what you'll be up to on PS2 this Autumn
11:44 Who is Carl Johnson? Is he the guy on the BMX in the first set of GTA: San Andreas screens released yesterday? Or the guy posing in front of his open top low-rider?
Whoever he is, he's in trouble. Five years ago Carl escaped the urban hellhole of Los Santos, San Andreas - a city packed to the rafters with Hollywood hustlers, reclusive millionaires and dirty dealers. But now, Carl's mum has been murdered and, as he returns home to try and hold his family together, he's framed by a couple of bent cops.
San Andreas is set to be a far larger game than either GTA 3 or Vice City, since SA is actually an entire state. We've heard about three cities so far - the aforementioned Los Santos as well as San Fierro and Las Venturra, and there will be open countryside between each one!
Lead character Carl has a family, too, so we could be looking at a much more intricate plot as he struggles to save them and clear his name. Building interiors are now much more detailed, and you can commit burglaries as well as gamble your hard stolen cash away in casinos. A new stamina meter means you need to stop off for junk food every now and again to keep your energy up, plus you'll be able to recruit your own gang as back-up.
Add to that a classic early 90s West Coast setting (musically, think G-funk, grunge, the classic years for Detroit techno) and we could be looking at another potential Rockstar classic. GTA: San Andreas is due for release in the UK on October 22nd.

Everything in the game now has independent models for day and night to give better lighting and shadowing. Confirmed - GI

You need to eat to retain your stamina. If you eat too much fast food, you become fat and pedestrians mock you for being fat. You also run slower. To remedy this, you can go to a gym to exercise. Confirmed - GI

There will be bicycles. Confirmed - GI
Artificial Intelligence
Enemy/pedestrian AI will be greatly revamped and they will think more logically. You can't beat someone to death in broad daylight and not have people notice and react. Confirmed - GI
Your enemies will be smarter, which will make robbing houses take a lot of skill. Confirmed - GI
Music
There will be a rap station, but there will be a variety of other stations as always. Confirmed - GI
