PC v1 is the best version to get. If you can onlt find V2/special edition, don't bother. Try eBay.

As said above the PC version 1.0 is better ...because you can then Mod the game to have real cars, install different Mission mods etc etc.

 

On version 2.0 sold after 19 August 2005, you CANNOT Mod it at the moment, though the Modding community is trying to find ways wink.gif

if u have a decent computer, then the PC version is better since it gives better graphics than PS2 if u have a nice video card. and it's better to aim with a mouse than using the analog stick.

 

i am using v1.01 and it works fine.

Yeah limited is v2 which is supposed to be unmoddable.

You can try to get v1 from eBay, pawn shops, used game shops...

I have SA on ps2, and on the pc v1 and v2. I think the pc version is better. Even though you can only find v2 in stores, you can still mod it. PM me about modding v2 because I can't talk about it here.

I agree with everyone here 100%

I just got San Andreas v1 a few days ago, garage sale.

If you dont think itll be better on PC then just look at the comparisons.

PS2: unmoddable, no custom music, hard manual aim, only 640x480 res, its easier to control cars and bikes with PS2 controller, luckily you can get an adapter too and use your ps2 controller on the pc! eliminating the mouse though.

 

PC: mods, mp3 player, great graphics (at a cost), hmm... thats it, pc is still better though tounge2.gif

I have all three versions and here is my opinion

 

PC>Xbox>PS2

 

so yeah, pc it is.

i would say ps2 is better than xbox because the controls are harder

 

p.s. thanks guys. I almost would have bought the pc san andreas from the store... now ill check ebay wink.gif

I'd say if you're looking for the game in its "natrual", state than PS2 v1.

 

If you're looking for a regular game, PC v1 is the best.

 

MP3's mods and a whole lotta stuff for the PC.

 

PS2 has none of that.

I currently have both versions (the PC version and the PlayStation 2 version). This might sound weird, but I alternate between one version and another.

 

Both versions are pretty good. The PC version has shut down on me during a game and sometimes it had trouble starting up. However, I feel the PC version is slightly better.

 

 

Just for the record, I bought the PlayStation Version before Christmas, but an ex-girlfriend bought me the PC Version. Thats why I use both.
