Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas is the most recently released large game in the GTA series, developed by Rockstar North. It is a GTAIII-era game, and so has references to storylines and characters from both GTAIII and Vice City.

The game is set in 1992, and concerns the return of Carl Johnson (known as CJ) to his gang (the Grove Street Families), and their subsequent return to power.
The game has received widespread acclaim for its technical achievements and free gameplay. However, it also received widespread criticism - initially due to its "gangster" elements, which includs drugs, prostitution, and murder; but later due to the discovery of disabled interactive sex scenes, nicknamed Hot Coffee, which could be re-enabled using third-party mods. This led to the re-rating by the ESRB of the game from Mature to Adults-Only until a second version, with the sex scenes fully removed, was released.
