Mission Details

CJ is told by the Ballas that if he wants to join their gang, he must kill several GSF members. CJ kills three Grove Street members before returning to the Ballas, where he is admitted into the gang and the mission is completed.

The Ballas then cement their control over the area of Grove Street by distributing crack cocaine through the area again, which is further fueled by their drug/supply and protection relationship with Big Smoke's cocaine empire. The Ballas and the Vagos then control all the gang territories in Los Santos.

Kane serves as the leader of the front yard ballas but meets his end while attending little weasel's funeral, another member of the Grove Street Families. This was a common occurrence during that time, as the ballas took advantage of the Grove Street Families' weakened state due to drug trade.

One of the protagonists, Franklin Clinton, is not on friendly terms with the Ballas as he is part of The Families. However, if he speaks to a Ballas member, they will not be aggressive at first, although they become hostile when Franklin insults them (usually the 3rd time you press the talk button).

Following the gang war, the Grove Street Families gain the territory of Glen Park from the Ballas. At this point, the GSF are now much stronger and are on a more equal footing with the Ballas.

The War. The start of the war had never been explained but it may have started when drugs were introduced to Los Santos in the early 1980s. The war seemed to be going on around the time Carl and Lance "Ryder" Wilson were growing up because Carl mentions Ryder beating up a teacher for wearing Balla colors.

As he dies, CJ asks Smoke what made him flip up and he explains that he betrayed the gang because he finally saw an opportunity to become rich and famous, and took it without caring about the consequences; Smoke says that because of his greedy nature, he had no choice in the matter.

Ryder is a high-ranking member of the Grove Street Families who later joined forces with the Ballas, Vagos and C.R.A.S.H.

After deciding that his life in Los Santos was unpromising, Carl cut his ties with everyone and moved to Liberty City, where he resided for five years and found work in stealing cars for Joey Leone.

The possible reason for Franklin's dislike of Stretch could be due to Stretch trying to pull Franklin into the life that put him in jail in the first place, and also due to Stretch's selfish personality and his routine gangb*nging life, while Stretch appears to dislike Franklin due to his attempts to leave the hood and ...

Did Stretch join the Ballas? ›

Stretch originally seems friendly with the two, despite an arrogant sense of superiority over them, but is secretly an associate of their rival gang, the Ballas, having defected to them during his time in prison.

It should be noted that Lamar and Michael have met, they just didn't remember. In Franklin and Lamar, both Lamar and Franklin walk right by Michael, then Lamar askes him for directions. Michael gives them. Even before they talk, Franklin even says Lamar's full name.

Yes, if you take every territory the Ballas own they will disappear but you still need to take all the Vagos' territory to completely stop any gang from taking your territory.

There is no restriction on Carl returning to Los Santos, although there is no longer a Grove Street Families presence on Grove Street, and the cash point in front of the Johnson house no longer functions. If Carl is wasted close enough to Los Santos he will respawn at a hospital in Los Santos.

No, you can't get married in this game. But why get married? Once your progress is far enough with the girl, they let you have their "coffee" anyway.
