Discussion VideoGame / GrandTheftAutoSanAndreas

What makes GTA San Andreas better than other GTA games is: you can be over the top even in the Realistic(as opposed as fantastic and Sci-fi) settings

With respect to the Hydra under Awesome, but Impractical

• If you try to pilot it with thrusters down, it controls exactly like a helicopter with homing missiles.

I think this is not correct: the Hydra with thrusters down is different from most helicopters in the following ways:

• Slower to respond to the controls.
• Skinks quite rapidly if not under positive thrust.
• Lacks the "gyroscopic" self-righting tendencies of a heli.

So replaced this statement with somethings I'm more sure of: the Hydra can be Awesome, but Impractical for some players in a ground-straffing role when hovering — which is exactly what people wanna do with it, usually.
