In this game log I decided to describe a mission titled "Los Sepulcros". Objective of the mission is to do a drive-by shooting of a gang members who were on the funeral of a gang member who I shoot during the mission "Drive by". It still involves a gang named a "Front Yard Ballas OG". So as you can see the story becomes more and more complicated and it follows a particular plot.
Honestly I tried to pass this mission but I couldn't. I asked my sister to give me some hints, but still I had a lot of problems, but eventually I got an idea how to pass it. To pass the mission I had to recruit two more "homies" to help me do the shooting. Then I had to sneak in the back of the Los Sepulcros (commentary) and catch the "Ballas" by surprise. Then using a little cheat code(HESOYAM) I managed to kill them all(without any difficulties), which completed this mission. As you can see this mission is not much different than the one I described in the previous log. It just have a different story but the goal is the same. I find games like that very boring and not worth spending the money. On the other hand this mission supports my point that the game is ruthless and senseless. Authors show us that we have no limits and commentary is as good as any other place to do some killing. It emphasizes a human cruelty because those scene are nothing new to the public I'm pretty sure something like that happened before in the real life.

This is the first time I ever played Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas or any other game from this series. Even though I have it at home( my sister loves it) I never gave it a try. Mostly because this is not a type of game I like to play. I heard that the game is very violent and vulgar, which I found out to be true after playing it for first hour.
At the beginning of the game we learn a little bit about the main character - Carl "CJ" Johnson. He came back from the East Coast, his mother was murdered and he has a strong criminal background.
When I first started to play I decided to skip the missions and learn a little bit more about the game. Eventually I came back to play the missions, but in this log I will describe my first look, observations. I had a little bit of trouble with learning the controls but after a few minutes it became all clear. First thing I did I walked around the city and I found it pretty amusing. It was very big and full of life. My first interaction with its people was a "little" fight. I fought a lady passing bye on the sidewalk. Which for the first time was very entertaining. Game allows you to fight with anybody you see, some people will fight back, some will run away and rest will not do anything. I found out that after beating up somebody to death you get chased by police and it is fairly easy to escape. What stroke me the most is that after committing murder in the middle of the busy street there is no response from most of the people. It looks like it is not a big deal and nothing changes. This game makes killing look like it is not a big of a deal. In few minutes I killed more people and eventually I got bored doing it. It was so easy and pointless. Also there is nothing that limits you when you are killing(besides police). I found amusing that you can be as brutal as you want. I quickly understood why this game is so controversial. No wonder it is only for adults. Violence and vulgarity is limitless.
Then I learned that I can steal every car in the city , drive like a maniac (killing more people) and that was it. I played for about an hour and I had fair understanding of what I can expect from the game in the next logs I will describe some of the missions I had to pass in order to advance through the game.
