Take a walk in the countryside
New details and screens of the countryside modes in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.

With the release of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas just a couple of weeks away, Rockstar have released some new screens and game information of the countryside modes of their eagerly-awaited title. As the game area of San Andreas is so large, planes play a much larger role in the game. Once you've started spending time out in the countryside and traveling between cities, using a plane to get around starts to make a lot of sense.
Rockstar North have designed a whole range of new airborne vehicles for CJ to fly. The new dodo has full wings now and so it obviously handles much better. It's not meant to be fast, but is solid and has responsive handling. As you can see in the screenshots below, you can really fly high above ground. There's actually an altimeter in the bottom left hand corner that appears when you're in aircraft to show you how high you are off the ground.
Rockstar have also incorporated mountain biking, so if you manage to hike all the way up to the top of Mount Chiliad then you'll find a race starting at the top for you to participate in. Hopefully you will have honed CJ's cycling skill by the time you attempt this race, because you'll need every bit of skill you can muster. Covering a torturous, winding track down the side of Mount Chiliad at extremely high speeds, this downhill race is the ultimate in cycling tests.
We will bring you much more on Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas on Silicon Fusion in the run up to the games release.
