Radio X

"We're the end of the alphabet people, (X) That's got to mean something, but we don't know what"

"Good morning San Andreas, the baby boom is officially over, you are all irrelevant! Now die." - Sage

Radio X is full of the 1990s grunge attitude and of the Generation X vibe of the time. Its host, Sage, presents herself as an intellectual, nihilist, revolutionist and pessimistic character.

The station's tracklist represents many of the contemporary modern/alternative rock sounds that were prominent or emerging in the early 1990s. The most represented genre on the station is undoubtedly grunge, with bands like L7, Soundgarden, Alice in Chains, and Stone Temple Pilots all having songs on the station, as well as the grunge energy given off by both the station idents and Sage. Also exhibited on the station are major heavy metal and hard rock acts from the late 1980s and early 1990s, like Guns 'n' Roses, Danzig, and Ozzy Osbourne. The alternative metal scene is also on display, froionsm acts such as Helmet, Living Colour, Alice in Chains, Faith No More, and Rage Against The Machine. The station also features softer, more dance-oriented songs by acts like Depeche Mode, Primal Scream, and The Stone Roses, representing the sounds of early 1990s UK alternative scenes such as synth-rock, Madchester, and neo-psychedelia. There is also a funk rock undertone to some acts, namely Jane's Addiction, The Stone Roses, Primal Scream, and Faith No More.

The station's host, Sage, is a young woman and proud member of Generation X. She is an escaped mental patient who is very opinionated and constantly speaks her views in-between songs. She gets lost frequently in her random musings, displaying extremely pessimistic and narcissistic views. She constantly wants to have sex and hates the older generations so much that she wants to kill anyone over the age of 30. She isn't very popular, as callers criticize her. She constantly says she wants to die and threatens to set herself on fire when all the bridges in San Andreas are open, permitting the player access to all areas in the game. Sage celebrates the riots in the later stages of the game, believing they are part of her "end of the world revolution".
