Introduction

Roleplaying games often present people with a blank canvas to draw a personality and character onto in a fantastical world. The incentive has always been for me to push this far as possible. Grand Theft Auto was exactly like this and led to some fun and interesting character development. As always I had to keep it real and give my respects to the pimpin.

In this chronicling of the game I'm gonna take you through my experience playing GTA: San Andreas and just one the many possibilities it has to offer as C.J.



Come Up and Turn Out

Spending all that time on the east coast made my mind cold and hard. I had to get back home to the west, San Andreas Love. And i can tell you straight man it wasn't long comin' up in San Andreas before I got my feet wet in the game, the only game, the dirtiest, rawest, slickest, baddest, coolest game on the street. I was born to pimp and get money.

Day One

New blood, freshly turned on to the game. Workin' that cold fade.

Turned on to the game and off to San Fierro. The city is ripe for the picking and I can't hang with the gang drama. The girl's with flowers in their hair put paper in my pockets.

True Stylings

I thought I was riding a red color kick but it wasn't til I had the bad fro that my true colors started shinin'. So it's back to Los Santos to get the custom touch on my ride. New paint, new spokes, and lowriding sides.
