Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.

I need a description of the package, along with the text on the box, for an article I'm writing. Stores in my area no longer carry the game.

Anyone have it? Anyone willing to describe the packaging/transcribe the description of the game?

Thanks much.

Here's the front. That's actually the British package, but my husband's for xBox looked the same. Amazon has lots of images.

The description on the back of the box is identical to the first three paragraphs under "Information" here.

Click on the "Buy Now" button at the link above, and you'll see the front of the box. The back of the box has 6 screenshots: carl on a bike, someone doing a drive-by, carl in front of a plane, cops on motorcycles, a guy with a flamethrower, and a guy driving past a casino.

(apparently the back of the PS2 box looks different than the back of the PC box)

Go to Amazon.com, will give you everything you want. You can even click the picture for the front and back of the box.

San Andreas is a great game. Funny that you didn't hear politicians bitching when all you could do was pick up hookers, be a pimp, kill cops, other gang members, and civilians in all manner of ways, steal cars and anything else that moves, do home invasions, drive-bys, and essentially cause all manner of mayhem. But have a little video nookie through a third party mod and, Won't Someone Please Think Of The Children?!?

Whatever. The PC version of GTA:SA is very fun.

I only managed to bang Denise so far, though.

Of all the images posted so far, none of them quite look like the actual US PS2 packaging. http://www.codenamesa.co.uk/media/news/Box-Art-Large.jpg is the closest, but the ESRB Rating Pending notice has since been replaced by the official M rating image.

The back of the box is essentially the same as the PC version displayed on Amazon. The detailed ESRB rating information is hard to make out in those images, though. It says "Blood and Gore", "Intense Violence", "Strong Language", "Strong Sexual Content", and "Use of Drugs." The ESRB has a listing of what those actually mean. Frankly, I don't see how the "Strong Sexual Content" notice doesn't cover the Hot Coffee mod.
