Robbing houses

 Robberies are very common in the GTA series. However, those are limited to convenience stores and banks. GTA San Andreas is the only time players can perform home invasions. It has yet to return in later installments.

Players have to be careful with their approach. If they wake up the house occupants, it will trigger an alarm. Once the player steals $10,000 worth of items, they will be given the infinite sprint.

Basketball is a simple mini-game in GTA San Andreas. Players can pick up a ball and throw it into the net. Despite its primitive nature, basketball was a fun way to pass the time. Players could also keep track of their high scores.

The game introduced multiple activities, such as dancing and the pool table. While they appear later on, basketball does not.
