GTA V Remastered: 10 Reasons To Revisit San Andreas

3. San Andreas Itself

One of the problems with Grand Theft Auto IV was the setting; Liberty City was small and lacked variety. GTA V's San Andreas is huge by comparison and it's got a great mixture of cityscapes and rural areas. You'll spend the majority of the game in Los Santos; driving and flying among the enormous skyscrapers of the city's central district, but the scale is obviously impressive, but it's beaten when you realise just how big the rest of San Andreas is outside the main city. Standing atop Mount Chiliad and looking around is already a breathtaking sight - it's hard to imagine what it'll look like with the improved draw distances of the next-gen release. Improved lighting effects will work wonders in the underwater ecosystem created by Rockstar and the added weather effects will help make San Andreas even more realistic; Rockstar's world already looks amazing, it seems remarkable that they're going to improve on it. These improved visuals also give you a good reason to go back and explore the finer details of San Andreas; namely the easter eggs you missed the first time round. Did you ever find the Vinewood Zombie? The No Country For Old Men Easter Egg? The ghost that appears by the lighthouse? Rockstar love their hidden trinkets and secrets so you can expect all of these to return as well as some new secrets. Most importantly though, the improvement in graphics will make your in-game selfies look better; and that's an enhancement that everybody can get behind... right?
