Retailer Notes Works with MTA:SA?
Steam Specialized Steam version of the game.

MTA installer will make this compatible for you (make sure to install the latest version of MTA after installing the Steam GTA version), but without modifying original game files.

Yes
Amazon For the Standard edition of the game, if MTA is incompatible, visit this topic and follow the instructions, or try obtaining a GTA SA 1.00 No CD - any HOODLUM release will function correctly. Unconfirmed (Standard)
Steam version and disc copies of GTA:SA will work fine Yes (Steam/Boxed DVD)
GamersGate To our knowledge, these vendors are offering Steam versions of the game (make sure to verify), and therefore will function similarly to the first entry in this article (Retailer: Steam). Yes
GameFly Digital
GreenManGaming
Walmart
Rockstar Games Launcher It is recommended to get GTA:SA straight from the Rockstar Games Launcher application rather than the webshop page. Yes
Windows App Store This is a mobile version of the game ported to PC. Will never work with MTA. No
