Before GTA V: 10 Biggest 'WTF' Moments From GTA History

10. Ryder and Smoke€™s Betrayal (San Andreas)

For the better part of San Andreas€™ opening act, most of the time CJ was with Ryder, he was trying to curry favour, to reconnect with his former Grove Street brother. But for the most part Ryder was a colossal douche in return; even though our Moms was dead, we couldn€™t seem to catch a break. I supposed we couldn€™t blame him really, CJ had essentially abandoned Grove Street in the past and loyalty was important to Ryder. Or so it seemed.

Slowly, Ryder started to open up to CJ, to re-embrace him back into the family. Big Smoke was always friendly, but even early on, you could sense something...not quite right about him. Imagine our surprise when discovering that Ryder and Big Smoke were in fact connected to the hit that was placed on CJ€™s mother, that he and big smoke were in league with the Officer Tenpenny and worse, the Ballas! What a set of rat b***ards! Catching up to Ryder, and later Big Smoke, and wasting them both was satisfying but still, I couldn€™t help whispering €œWhy guys? Why€ as I mowed €˜em down with automatic weaponry.
