Cheat Codes
GTA San Andreas Cheats: Every PS2 Code
San Andreas holds the record for the deepest cheat menu in the series — CJ can max out his
stats, spawn a jetpack, or turn every pedestrian in Los Santos into a rioting mob with a single button
string. These are the original PS2 controller codes; PC versions accept the same inputs typed as text
(for example, the health/armor/money code below types as HESOYAM).
Heads up: some of these — mass riots, gang wars everywhere, destroying
every loaded vehicle — can break active missions if you save afterward. Make a clean save before
experimenting, the same advice that's applied to this game for twenty years.
