‘Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas HD’ Hits Xbox 360 Today

Now this is pretty damn bargaintastic right here. And I don't use that word lightly. Or, y'know, ever.

Anywho, yes indeed. As we saw on Friday, this weekend marked the tenth anniversary of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas' release. To mark the momentous occasion, there was... a half-assed little double XP event on GTA Online. A nice little homage it may have been, but hardly enough to honor this pinnacle of PS2 gamery.

But this may help. A recent rumor suggested than San Andreas would be ported to Xbox 360 in spangly new HD soon, and lo! Here it is. Fresh from the drawer marked 'not actually bullshit after all,' it's San Andreas HD.

The game arrived on the marketplace today, and is pretty effing cheap. $3.74, in fact. Who could resist getting in on the high def Hot Coffee for that price? Nobody we know, that's for freakin' sure. A nostalgic crime wave through the city awaits, and it looks much less shitty than the last time.

You know how it is with decade-old 3D games. Sometimes you want to punch your own eyeballs in the face. But it's the gameplay that counts; the technical upgrade and price point are just sexy bonuses. As are the achievements, if that's your thing.
