Statistics are used in [[GTA III Era]] games to indicate progression in certain areas, or to enumerate certain activities -- for example, a "Longest wheelie" statistic will measure how long a player has sustained a wheelie on a motorcycle; "Packages collected" counts how many [[Hidden Packages]] a player has acquired; "Hospital visits" counts how many times a player has been [[Wasted]] on their current playthrough, etc. | [[File:Statistics-GTASA-menu.png|thumb|right|292px|Statistics in [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]].]] | ||

*'''[[Wanted Level]]''' - The Wanted Level indicates the level of police interest in the player. If the player commits serious crimes (and the police are aware of them), it will indicate the extent of the crimes, and how much force [[Police]] will employ in capturing (or killing) the player. If the police catch the player, he or she will be [[Busted]]. | *'''[[Wanted Level]]''' - The Wanted Level indicates the level of police interest in the player.

==GTA San Andreas Statistics== | |||
[[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas|GTA San Andreas]] has the most sophisticated miscellaneous statistics in any GTA game to this date, viewable either by holding the 'status' button or key, or via the Main Menu. These reflect CJ's physique, physical abilities and expertise; unlike in other GTA games, these change according to the player's actions. | |||

Fat is decreased by exercising, either at a [[gym]] or in the world at large. Being overweight naturally changes CJ's appearance, and eventually lessens most physical capabilities (including health) and possibly lead to random heart attacks (that can kill CJ), but CJ is required to have at least a small amount of fat - without it, exercising will reduce CJ's muscle instead of his fat. | ||
:Food is available at [[Well Stacked Pizza Co.]], [[Cluckin' Bell]], and [[Burger Shot]], and their meals will add either 0, 1, 2, or 3% to CJ's Fat level. | :Food is available at [[Well Stacked Pizza Co.]], [[Cluckin' Bell]], and [[Burger Shot]], and their meals will add either 0, 1, 2, or 3% to CJ's Fat level. | ||
:For every 150 seconds of running, or every 100 seconds of biking or [[swimming]], CJ will shed 1.5% fat. At a gym, this is much faster - on the treadmill or stationary bike, CJ will shed 2.5% fat every 14 seconds. When lifting weights, CJ will shed 2.5% fat for each repetition. Also, if the player waits 48 [[time|ingame hours]] without eating, CJ will shed fat at a rate of 2.5% per in-game hour. If the player has no more fat to shed, the hunger will start hampering muscle instead. | :For every 150 seconds of running, or every 100 seconds of biking or [[swimming]], CJ will shed 1.5% fat.

Eating too much in one sitting will cause CJ to vomit. Somewhere between 9 to 12 of the largest or salad meal at any restaurant. The magic umber depends on health, fat, muscle, time, etc. If this happens, the player will not be served in any restaurant until 11 game hours have passed. Oddly enough, eating til purge does count as eating; though it won't regain health, it will stave off hunger and weight loss like normal. | |||

This indicates CJ's muscular development. Muscle influences the [[Respect]] and Sex Appeal stats. Muscle is increased by working out at a gym, or otherwise exercising (running, riding bikes, swimming). A 100% muscle statistic is detrimental to Sex appeal and will prevent CJ from initiating contact with some [[Girlfriends in GTA San Andreas|girlfriends]] | This indicates CJ's muscular development.

Oddly, swimming, cycling and running somehow reduces CJ's muscle as opposed to increasing it. This is likely due to fatigue caused by the activities. | |||

This statistic indicates how girls will react to CJ. It is influenced by CJ's [[Vehicles in GTA San Andreas|Vehicle]], [[Barbers|Hairstyle]], [[Clothing in GTA San Andreas|Clothing]], Fat, and Muscle.
