Having just made it back into the streets of Liberty City after a long stretch inside, Tommy Vercetti is sent to Vice City by his old boss, Sonny Forelli. But all does not go smoothly upon his arrival in the glamorous, hedonistic metropolis of Vice City. Tommy is set up and loses everything. Sonny wants his money back, but the biker gangs, Cuban gangsters, and corrupt politicians stand in his way. Most of Vice City seems to want Tommy dead. His only answer is to fight back and take over the city himself. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Grand Theft Auto: Vice City - Guide/ US Version For the Playstation 2 Version FINAL (April 1st, 2003) Guide by Myke - mykeownz (at) yahoo (dot) com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1 Player Memory Card (for PS2) - 500 kb Analog Control Vibration Function Pressure Sensitive ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ *WARNING* DO NOT EMAIL me anything about this game that have been answered in this guide, I know you are really hyped up or into the game, and at least a million reserved it or that's what I heard. So, I know my mailbox will be filled with tons of beginner questions or questions that are answered in the document that I won't even bother responding it back for you. I don't care if you got the game, I don't care if you are ahead of me in the game and I absolutely won't care if you email me and start showing off, I hope you understand. Let me play and enjoy the game first and make this document the best source for Grand Theft Auto: Vice City out there as possible. Now, you may email me if you have a better strategy for those missions I've been through and completed already or a better car information than I have in the Vehicle List, and the same for weapons, etc. If there are 3 or 4 alternate strategies for one mission, DO NOT email me for more, I appreciate it but I think enough is enough, I'm not trying to sound mean, but I can't just stuff all of them in here. Thanks. *CHEATING LOWERS YOUR CRIMINAL RATING* from Snyder I just noticed something that ALL cheaters and GTA gamers need to know if they dont know already. Using a major cheat such as a car spawning cheat DRAMATICALLY lowers your Criminal Rating... *WANT TO FIX THAT ERROR MESSAGE?* Credits to ShadowMafia Okay, I have recieved this damn thing already . I decided to find a fix for it,so here goes. If you use a few select codes, apparantly your save is left alone. I have 4 saves on my memory card...2 are corrupted,and 2 are normal. The codes you CAN use without getting a error message are : All weapons, Full armor, Full health, and No Wanted Level. I tested a few other codes but they all gave the error message if combined. As for the cheat code still being enabled if you reset your console,heres the fix. Apparantly it doesnt corrupt saved games that WEREN'T saved while the 'corrupting' code was on. I recieved this message also,and reset the console only to get it again. The way to get past it is : Turn off your PS2,not just reset it, then try your game. I didnt recieve the errors until after I had used 'corrupting' codes. The 4 above that will not corrupt your game are basically all you will need anyways. *SAVED FILE CORRUPTED?* from Brian Myke, I'm sure you get tons of e-mail a day about Vice City, (Brian, I get more than just tons, like 100 per day, but hey, they are pretty useful emails) but this is in regards to the "DID YOU CHEAT?" section of yout guide. While I can't confirm the part about the choppers not being available, something interesting did happen when I used a cheat. I had just beat a mission and saved. I decided to do a little hellraising then. So I enabled the Group I weapons and flying cars cheat. I played for about 15 minutes and decided to do another mission. So I RESET the PS2 WITHOUT saving after I cheated. After I rebooted the game I played a mission. Everything seemed normal (no flying cars, same old weapons I had before), but when I went to save, it gave me a message about saving a game with cheats enabled. But I didn't save the game with cheats on, I just reset it. Sure enough, it "corrupted" my only 2 save game files I had. Could the game or PS2 somehow write the cheats into a savegame without me actually saving? It seems that it did. So I woud tell people to beware of cheats, for the game may actually "change" you savegames by itself. So I had to restart the game. *RENT THE GAME?* http://www.lilmikey.com/bitbin/gtamap.gif (Credits to M.

Walkthrough updated to 5th Diaz mission, more weapon and vehicle informations are put in too. Nov. 2nd, 2002 I was gone for one day and I got almost 80 emails and most Version 0.4 of them were about Vice City. I was gone all day. Starting tomorrow, I will get into work and try to go farther in the game as I can. Nov. 3rd, 2002 Stop pestering me about where you can find a hideout, Version 0.5 I have added a new section of those hideouts I can find in the game, happy? Walkthrough updated, and the same goes with the weapons and vehicles. Nov. 4th, 2002 Updated the walkthrough, Diaz is dead, Cortez left and I'm Version 0.6 trying to beat Shakedown. Vehicle list is organized. I'll try to organize the weapons list and others. Nov. 5th, 2002 Well, I'm off to buy some business. Version 0.7 Nov. 5th, 2002 Walkthrough updated to both Rock Band and the Biker. Version 0.8 Thanks to the people confirming that the cheating rumour isn't true. I do have one question though, what part of the game will be affected if you do cheat? I heard that you get a message? Nov. 6th, 2002 Read the "Saved File Corrupted?" message above. Anyway, Version 0.9 walkthrough is done for both the Love Fist and Mitch Baker. I still need to do the final mission for Vercetti, I bought some companies, and I need to go meet 2 other people and a phone mission to do, after that, I'll get to the depth of the game such as Hidden Packages, Side Missions, etc. Hey, I might add an Easter Eggs section, because alot of things in the game are from past GTA games, so I figured why not have something fun to read/look through? Nov. 7th, 2002 Added the Kaufman Cab missions, Umberto Robina's missions, Version 1.0 some boats are added to the Vehicle list...I also bought the Film Studio and Sunshine Autos and I'll get to them after Auntie Poulet's missions. Nov. 8th, 2002 Umberto's and Auntie Poulet's missions are completed, Version 1.1 Sunshine Autos is also completed. I have to do the Film Studio missions, Vercetti's missions, I need to go buy the PrintWork and the Malibu Club and then the Hidden Packages locations last. Nov. 10th, 2002 Not much, added 3 Film Studio missions and some alternate Version 1.2 strategies. Nov. 12th, 2002 Hooray! All of the assets' missions are completed, the Version 1.3 Vercetti missions are completed except for the last one, I will get to the Unique Jumps and Hidden Packages on the next update, including the Street Races, the Hyman Stadium races and some other vehicle funs. I will also work on the Items locations (such as Police Bribes, Health, and Armor) There is this new thing called "Rampage", I'll get to that as well. Nov. 13th, 2002 Phil Cassidy's missions are in and that means the main Version 1.4 part of the game is completed. I will get to the other things such as Hidden Packages, Rampages and such. Nov. 15th, 2002 45 Hidden Packages down so far, I will be busy with other Version 1.5 projects next week, so, I won't be updating this guide as much as I used to. Nov. 18th, 2002 More Hidden Packages are written down, including a new Version 1.6 section called "Rob a Store Locations" and thanks goes out to Anton for submitting it. Nov. 19th, 2002 Police Bribe locations added, Rampage locations added, Version 1.7 Rob a Store Locations updated, this guide is about to be completed. Dec. 7th, 2002 Unique Jumps section added, everything in this document Version 1.8 is completed, you most won't likely see any more update after this version, maybe one or two before the next GTA game come out. Jan. 3rd, 2003 Some strategies from several readers are added.

If one pulled you out of the car, you'll be busted that way too. ** - Two or three police cars will be after you and try to take you down. Get to the Pay 'n Spray or grab the Police Bribe somewhere in the game. *** - Helicopter will track you down with the spotlight while police cars and a new vehicle in the chase, the Cheetah will be in pursuit after you. Sometimes they will set up a roadblock or two police cars to act like a barricade to hold you down. *** - Heavy units coming in! Police cars are driving more aggresively than * before and they arrive and catch you quickly as well. A new vehicle in the chase, the Enforcer, and the police start using stop strips *** - You got the FBI after you in their black Rancher! Good job! Now they ** are getting serious about this and try to gun you down. *** - When will you ever give up?! The military are after you along with the *** FBIs, Helicopters, Cheetahs and Police Cars. The military will carry the Rhino and the Barrack OLs with them to get your butt in jail. -Go to any fast food place in the malls or the pizza place and order food and your health will go back to 100 (Credits to Dave Z) ---------------------------------- The first thing you have to do is to head for the hotel, which is the pink dot on the radar, you can take the Admiral or any other vehicle to get there. Enter the building where the pink dot is, you can either save the game (tape cassette) or go on to see what your first mission is. An Old Friend ------------------------ A conversation between Tommy and Sonny took place, Sonny asked if Tommy have the money and Tommy told him no. Sonny got mad and said it was his money and he doesn't like to be put down. Tommy told Sonny that he will take care of it. After the conversation, head to the Lawyer's Office, which is where the "L" is in the Washington Beach area. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3.1: Ken Rosenberg ------------------------ I. The Party ------------------------ The lawyer tells you about this guy, Colonel Juan Cortez, is the one who set the deal up with him and he has a party going on in the yacht somewhere and the lawyer have been invited but he does not want to go there because there are big guys after him. Tommy shutted him up and he tells the lawyer that he will take care of it. Stop by Rafael's first, his place is in the Washington Beach area, he will give you a nice blue Armani suit! well...maybe not Armani...but its nice though. A scene of a biker shows up, nice bike he says, take it if you want to. Go to the party at Colonel Juan Cortez's yacht. If you can't find it, it is a little bit to the south of the southern bridge that connects the two islands, and you'll see that pink dot on your radar. You'll meet up with Juan Cortez and then he'll introduce you to his daughter, Mercedes. Mercedes will take you around the yacht and tell you about each one of the guests on the boat, then she wants you to take her to the Pole Position Club. Pick a car and go to the Pole Position Club, it isn't far from here. Once you drop her off, you will be rewarded $100. ------------------------ II. Back Alley Brawl ------------------------ Go back to Ken Rosenberg, the lawyer, to see what to do next. He will tell you about this guy, Kent Paul and Ken says that he's always at the Malibu Club, so go pay him a visit. Take your vehicle and head straight to the Malibu Club, it is located right in the middle of the island you are on, but it said its in the Vice Point area. Anyway, head on inside and you'll find the drunk Kent trying to pick up a girl inside the club. He has nothing to give you, Tommy pushed him down and then head outside. Your next objective is to find the chef on Ocean Drive. A yellow dot will appear on your map and that is where the chef is, drive or run over there and you'll find the chef in the alley. Beat him up and take the cellphone, a black man shows up and tried to be partner with you because he saw what happened. More chefs behind you, ignore them and follow the guy back to the car. This time, go to the Ammu-Nation, a gun shop, up in Vice Point. Go to where the Gun symbol is on your map to get there. There are only two guns available to buy, a Colt 45 and Ingram Mac 10. Exit out of Ammu-Nation and then go back to the hotel to complete this mission and collect $200. Head back to the lawyer's office. ------------------------ III. Jury Fury ------------------------ Ken found out that there are guys coming down there and take him out, he thought Tommy said he is taking care of this, he also ask for the money. Tommy told him to relax and he hasn't got to the money part. After you leave the office, the guy standing in front of you got ran over and left behind a hammer, take it! There are two yellow dots on your radar, they were where the juror's car is, go to one of them and then smash the car up, do the same with the other car and you'll receive $400 for this. ------------------------ IV. Riot ------------------------ Finally, something fun to do. Avery wants you to stir up a riot over on the island near Washington Beach. Stop by Rafael's to get new clothes and then head over to the destinated spot. Beat up 4 workers in the area to start a riot, then if you have a weapon, blow up the barrels in the area. If you don't have a weapon, then beat up the police first, grab the gun off him and then target the barrel next to the two vans (press R1) and then fire! One more van to blow up but the barrel is too far away from it and its radius blast isn't big enough to hit the last van. So, beat up some cops and take the pistols from them and start firing at the van. Whenever you see a flame emerges from the front of the van from all the bullet going in, that means the van will explode, mission accomplished, $1000 will go in your hands. That's it for Ken Rosenberg, and you can move on and do some things for Avery, he is the "A" marked on your radar. EMAIL FROM: Mike Christoffel For the Riot Mission - you can enter the third van and just drive it into walls until it lights on fire, to destroy it. Ths is much better than wasting ammo on it. EMAIL FROM: calicat You don't need a gun to destroy the vans. You can just use a hammer or a bat and just keep beating each van until it catches fire. Make sure and back away from the explosion or your toast. It takes a minute or so of whaling on each van but the rioters don't bother you. Rather than fighting your way through the mob to escape, just climb the boxes behind one of the vans and jump over the fence into the construction yard and you can walk away safely. EMAIL FROM: thegremlin When doing Riot you don't actually need to 'attack' 4 guys. Running them over in a car works. Just ram a car into the crowd, back up, run a few more over and then drive out. The guys will chase you down and pull you out of the car though, so drive a bit off and then run back. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 3.2 - Avery Carrington ------------------------ I. Four Iron ------------------------ Avery wants you to go to a golf club because a big man is there that he does not like, he also gives you a free membership card to get in the golf club. You need some clothing though, head over to JockSport to get the golf clothes. A chick is checking you out, hm, thanks! The golf club isn't far from here, go across the nearby bridge and turn right to enter the club. When you go through the metal detector, you'll notice that you can't carry guns in there and they are left behind. Pick up the golf club to the right and then take the Caddy to where the yellow dot is on your radar. Go up the stairs and one of the guys in black suit will come over you then the big guy will jump in the golf cart and drive away. Quickly jump in the golf cart and chase down after him, but run over the group of guys in black suit first so they won't be any trouble to you. You can try to knock the big guy over on his golf cart and then beat him up. If he has already left the golf club and is on the road, hurry out of the club and jump in a fast car and then keep following him. Once you catch up to him, ram into him as hard as you can and exit out of the vehicle, drag him out and beat him up with your golf club. $500! EMAIL FROM: R. Galovan My strategy is for "Four Iron". First go to where the guy you are supposed to kill, and his bodygaurds are. As soon as they see you, jump into a golf cart and go to the entrance to the club. (dont worry about killing the body guards). Right outside, there should be a white car w/ someone in it. Go ahead and take steal the car. Stay in the parking lot and run over anyone who comes out of the enterance to get you. Wait a while, and the man you are supposed to kill will exit the golf club. He can't go anywhere because you have is getaway car! Just run him over when he comes out, and the mission is over, there is no way he can get away. EMAIL FROM: calicat If you have guns you can smuggle them into the golf course by parking your car next to the big gray oval thing to the left of the country club entrance. Jump on the car and jump over the gray thing. Run around the back of the country club and swipe a golf cart. Then proceed with the mission as usual by going to the driving range. But now you can shoot the bodyguards and and the target. EMAIL FROM: Brandon Roberts for the mission where you go to the golf club go to the entrance and there is a porsche looking car, just drive it straight up along the building, hop on top of it and jump over the fence, so that way you can keep all of your guns EMAIL FROM: thegremlin For Four Iron, you can't go through the metal detector with a gun... but you can take them onto the golf course. As you face the front of the entrance you should be able to see a ramp on the left side by the fence. I suppose this is so you can drive a golf cart around the city. But you can use it to get into the club. Just park a car by it and hop on the hood of the car. From the car jump onto the ramp. Volia, you're inside the golf course. Just hop a ride, drive over to the guy, whip out a gun and plug him from a safe distance. His gomba's didn't even try and fight back when I did this. EMAIL FROM: substance J When you arrive at the country club, you'll notice a ramp on the other side of the fence, to the left of the entrance. Take the Comet that's parked opposite to it, and use that to climb over the fence. Now you're inside, with all your firearms. To make the mission even simpler, take the golf carts parked by the driving range and push them into the water. Your target will have no means of escape. ------------------------ II. Demolition Man ------------------------ Avery will be out of town and he needs you to go to the construction site and demolish it. Run to the Top Fun van to start the mission. You get to fly in the helicopter, pick up the bomb and go to any one of the four pink dots, but with how hard to control the helicopter, you've been given a good amount of time of 7 minutes to get all 4 bombs in each one of their own spot. Pick up the first bomb by pressing [] and then fly the helicopter over to the construction site (where you see 4 pink blips on the radar), drop the bomb on the first and lowest barrel, then head back to pick up another bomb. The 2nd barrel is 1 floor up, the 3rd is 2 floors up and the last barrel is the 3rd floor up. To drop the bomb, press O. EMAIL FROM: hemorse You get the helicopter, and you first learn how to fly it. Fly into the bottom floor of the building, always moving forward and pressing x to gain elevation when you need to. You'll notice that the construction workers follow you. When you have a feel for the building, and you note that staircase, you're good to go. Fly back to the bombs, turn around so you're facing the building, pick one up, and haul butt towards the basement. I always have a problem with time and never with the guards, so don't worry about them too much. Now this is important: start on the ground floor and drop your bomb there (don't worry about accuracy; the game is pretty lenient). Get another and progress up to the second floor, then the third, then the fourth. There's a spot on each floor; fly around until you find it then go back and get another bomb. Don't worry about the guards. On the third floor is a security guard who shoots at you. Don't worry about him either. Now as soon as you place the fourth bomb on the fourth floor, the building goes. Doing this I managed to complete the mission with 1:30 left on the timer, but if you don't leave the fourth floor for last the mission will be a pain in your butt. EMAIL FROM: Charles First of all, get familiar with the rc copter before picking up the first bomb and starting the timer. I find that tapping the x button, as opposed to holding it down makes the copter fly in a better straight line. As for the mission itself, instead of starting with the target on the ground level, go up the inner staircase of the building and start with the highest target, and work your way down. That way, if you're running low on time, your last target will be at ground level, and you'll have a straight shot in, instead of having to race the clock up the stairs. EMAIL FROM: Charly Martin DON'T TOUCH THE BOMBS YET! First just go into the building at a high level... Find a worker and cut him with your blades on your copter... *****Do this on all the floors so that everyone is dead.***** That should make the mission much easier... Then take your time and drop the first bomb at the top and work your way down.... ------------------------ III. Two Bit Hit ------------------------ Avery introduces you to Donald Love, from GTA III, and Avery wants you to stir up a conflict between the Cubans and the Haitians. Go to the clothing store in Little Havana to get a disguise. Head over to where the pink blip is. Block the car where the gang leader is and throw a bomb in there if you have one. If the gang leader has already left in his Romero Hearse, grab a car and chase him down but try not to TAILGATE the Romero Hearse because it will begin to drop coffins and if you run over one, it will blow up. Drive along beside the Romero Hearse and bang into either side and try to get it to hit the wall or get stuck somewhere and then blow it up using a bomb or something. EMAIL FROM: Zinnpage I used the rocket launcher on this mission. Because of the number of gang members in the area, I had to soften up the target a little first. I used the SPAS shotgun to mow down a few rows of bangers, and as soon as the leader pulled off in the herse, I switched to the RPG, and blew up the Hearse. (I can't remember where I found the SPAS shotgun, but it is AWSOME) EMAIL FROM: rooster I found an easier way to complete the mission. First, when you get to where the gang members have the road blocked, make a left and then make a right into an alley. Drive to an open space across from the target. Take the ruger, aim and fire. Make sure you are facing the way you came in before you shoot. After you shoot, floor it and get out of there. Much easier than running him down. EMAIL FROM: A. Bixler I just stomped on the gas, through the small roadblock, jumped the curb and ran over the guy. Then made my way out through the back alley. Mission took all of 3 seconds. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 3.3 - Colonel Juan Cortez ------------------------ I. Treacherous Swine ------------------------ Cortex tells you about Gonzalez and how he got to a new level and Cortez didn't like where Gonzalez is going, so he needed you to take the chainsaw, whoa...a chainsaw? now that's going too far, but hey! why not do the job for money? Go to where the pink dot is on the map. Head inside and you'll find Gonzalez, head down there and cut him up with the chainsaw. If he escape out of the building, you can just jack a car and run him over, the police will be after you after you kill Gonzalez, so hurry and go to the new pink dot on the map, which is the Pay 'n' Spray, park your car in the garage to lose the warrant and you don't have to pay $100, but next time you park your car in any one of the Pay 'n' Spray garages in the game, you will lose $100. EMAIL FROM: kialindo After killing the swine I was able to complete the mission by grabbing the police bribe to the left of the building as you exit and then I managed to find another bribe in an alleyway nearby. Suffice it to say you don't need to go to the Pay 'n' Spray but just have to get rid of your wanted level in any way possible. ------------------------ II. Mall Shootout ------------------------ Cortez wants you to go meet someone in the mall who has the guidance chip, so get in a vehicle and go to the yellow triangle on your radar, which is where the Washington Mall is. You can drive a car in there, or a motorcycle into the mall, or just use your feet. Go up the escalator and meet the guy in the purple suit. A conversation will go on from there, FBI agents will be spying on you and then they will try to hurt you or capture you. Ignore them and go after the target. Grab a fast car and run him down. If he is riding on the motorcycle, use the same strategy and run him over if he falls off the motorcycle and then pick up the guidance chip. Head back to Cortez in order to complete the mission and get $500. EMAIL FROM: Circle Tilde After you except the mission from Cortez, grab the car outside the boatdocks, or any other fast vehicle of your choosing, and drive to the east? mall entrance (I beleive.. It should be the entrance that you can drive a vehicle through). This is also the closest entrance to the target. After you park the car (facing towards the street.) Go ahead and meet up with the guy. He runs through the same entrance you just parked at.. but with your fast vehicle already running and waiting for you, you should have no trouble at all trying to find a vehicle to catch up with the guy and run him over. EMAIL FROM: Kevin For this mission I parked a car across the mall entrance that the courier will try to run out and then pushed it into the entrance to totally block it. After the shoot out begins and the courier books, run down the escalator and run after the courier, you will find him blocked in the mall by the car with no place to go. Shoot him and take the chip. Mission accomplished! This worked really well. No long vehicle chase to do ------------------------ III. Guardian Angels ------------------------ In this mission, Cortez wants you to go watch over Diaz's men at the drop off, but he dropped off some protection at the multistory carpark for you. Go to the target on the radar, this is where the car parking building is, but to get in it, use the alley, then go up the ramp. Pick up the Ruger here and Lance will show up. Lance will go with Tommy to the drop-off. Go to where the pink blip is on your radar. Diaz and his men will show up and they will talk with the other group, business stuff. You need to watch out for anybody behind Diaz on the street (men in white clothing) and kill them off. Two men in Sandbags will take Diaz's money and zip off, Diaz ordered you to go after the one who has his money, forget the dirtbike, take a car and run that money snatcher down! Once you got the briefcase, head back to where Diaz is to give him back his money, mission completed! EMAIL FROM: Moogle the quickest way to finish it off, (After the money is stolen) is to sprint through the Uzi and onto the motorcycle. Chase the thief down the alley and gun him down since you cna fire forward on a bike with an uzi. EMAIL FROM: Mooshkie217 Instead of using the Ruger to get the Haitian get the Uzi. Aim with R1 and hold circle until that person dies. Then move on to the next person. On the part when you need to chase the guy on the dirtbike you shouldn't try to steal a car. It might take to long and he might get away. Get on the dirtbike and shoot him while on the bike. If he is in front of you press circle. If he is on the side press R2 or L2 and circle EMAIL FROM: SocrTrump I find this is the best order to do things. When you are at the top of the staircase, don't aim at the two bad guys doing the deal, they will die pretty quickly after others come, instead, wait for the first car to pull in directly behind theirs and shoot the driver as quickly as possible, then the passenger. A few seconds later, A van will park on the road to your right. Get this to explode as quickly as possible, then shoot anyone who escaped it. After a while, 2 cars will show up on your left. If you can't destroy the whole car from afar, wait until they park and shoot all of them. Besides that, listen to Leo when he needs help, a guy is shooting at him on the staircase across from you. ------------------------ IV. Sir, Yes Sir! ------------------------ Cortez wants you to go pick up a piece of military hardware that is being taken through town. From the Colonel's yacht, you better go to some weapon store for some and get loaded up. Grab a vehicle and go to the yellow blip on the radar which is where the military is marching down the street. Park the car in front of the tank to make the convoy stop. Exit out of the vehicle and go jack the tank. Once you get to drive the tank, you are unstoppable. Head for the pink blip on your radar and then park the tank inside the garage. EMAIL FROM: RWBudd Head North from the pier parking lot to the first bridge, hang a left and go to the next island. Take a right at the end of the bridge and travel North stopping just south of the next bridge. Wait for the convoy to approach you until it STOPS. (you will hear some one order a soldier to get some donuts). Run to the tank and open the door (it will be unlocked when stopped). Hop in, take a right and head for the yellow blip. Not a hard $2000. EMAIL FROM: Brock On the missions Sir, Yes Sir (for the Colonel) you have to steal a tank. I got my a** shot up a few times before I found a simple way to beat it. The tank is locked so you can't just go and jump into it. I drove passed the convoy and then walked up to the BACK Barracks OL, stealing it. The army guys in it jump out and begin to shoot at you. I drove forward a few blocks passed the convoy. This causes the lead Hummer and barracks to chase you, leaving the tank unguarded. I then stole the Hummer and drove back. By now the tank is unlocked, so I yanked out the driver, turned it 180 degrees and hauled it back to the Colonel's garage. EMAIL FROM: mathias1314 Before you head over the bridge to the west island. Go to ammunation and buy grenades and a sniper rifle. Go to toward the yellow blimp but park your vehicle in the middle of the street before they see you and move away from the vehicle and the soldiers until you are at a nice far throwing distance. Seconds before they stop the convoy on account of your vehicle, start throwing your nades like crazy right into the convoy. Make sure you throw both in front of the tank and behind the tank. 2 or 3 is good. I wouldn't throw more than this because you might blow up the tank also. If you do it right the nades will blow up all the vehicles in the convoy except the tank. Any soldiers that are left you can snipe with your sniper rifle(They will propbably be running to you making them an easy target). Once enough is killed the soldiers that are in the tank will leave it and help. This way can be difficult to succeed in the first time. But when you do it right it's easy and YOU KILL ALL OF THEM. Which means getting into the tank will be easy. It should be no problem to follow the blimp to park the tank from here. EMAIL FROM: Randy Grab a car - any car and head over to where the tank is. Drive the car right in front of the tank, forcing it to stop. Get out of the car and head to the tank. The soldiers will tell you to step away, but I was able to get into the tank before even one shot was fired. From there, an easy trip back to Colonel's garage. ------------------------ V. All Hands On Deck! ------------------------ This has to be my favorite mission so far, why? because you get to play sniper and you be very aggressive, actually you've been aggressive through the whole game, right? Anyway, get a sun tan lotion and a pair of shades because you are going to be on a cruise! Cortez is leaving and he wants you to help him to get out safely. The French are after him in boats. The first part of this mission is to go at the rear of the boat and gun down any boats coming from behind. The second part have you to try to clear the boats in front of the ship out of the way. The third part have the helicopters coming in and drop the French on the deck, kill the French and then gun down the helicopter, there are 2 of them. The fourth part of the mission have the Hunter flying in and try to gun you and Cortez down, simply shoot the Hunter down and then go back to the front of the ship and clear the way so that Cortez can leave and never return. A gun reappears in the middle of the ship if you are ever low on ammo. EMAIL FROM: R. Smith If you park your car in the middle of dock 1 (where the men in black run in to their boats) and block their path, they won't be able to get to the boats, and you'll eliminate the first part of the mission - with boats swarming all over you. This actually makes a boring first couple of minutes, as everyone on your boat just stands around. However, when you approach the bridge with the blockade, the action will start again. This just saved you a lot of ammunition, and some health. EMAIL FROM: Mr Owl I finished this mission very easily using a minigun. Make sure you have at least 1,000 rounds, and go to town. It automatically aims up and down Doom style and eats up the boats and choppers fast. The only thing is make sure you don't accidentally mow down Cortez. EMAIL FROM: B. Palmer This mission is actually very easy, because of the respawning heart and ruger. When I played the mission, the heart wouldn't respawn and the ruger only sometimes. The trick I found was to run to the back railing, then back to the center stairs, and the heart and ruger will be there. The mission should be impossible to fail now, since you basically have unlimited health. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 3.4 - Ricardo Diaz ------------------------ I. The Chase ------------------------ Diaz's house is located on Starfish Island, drive to his mansion. Diaz will get you to find out where this guy's hideout is because this guy is doing something behind his back. Go to where the pink blip is on the radar and have a look in the window, hmm, nobody's in there. There he is! follow him across the rooftop (use the plank to walk/run across the gap between buildings) and he will jump into the BF Injection, find a good car and keep following him. *Note - he may puncture your tire(s) while on the pursuit and make you drive out of control, if you want a better car, QUICKLY drive up to one and drag the person out of the next vehicle and keep following the target until it reaches Prawn Island. Now you know where this guy's hideout is, head back to Diaz's mansion. EMAIL FROM: M16 Once you go to look though his window he comes. Sprint after his (X). Tap sprint so it lasts longer. Go after him and and once you reach the roof there will be a cut-scene. Ignore the cut-scene. Just run down the roof avoiding all walls. Remember to keep on tapping X so you run longer. The are gaps between the roofs so you have to run over the plank. If you are going at a fast enough paceyou will just fly over and you won't need the planks. When the barrels explode run around the fire. (Just go inbetween two of them) Then you will see him jump off the roof, do it too. Now here is the part where everyone goes wrong at first. Don't look for a car on the street, on the road side of the dumpster is a Faggio. Hop on it, it's the perfect way to follow him. It is easy to catch up to him and turns are no problem. Just keep on swerving to avoid bullets, you most likely will never get hit this way. Don't go to close to him but you can be about 3 of the games car lengths away. Just follow him for a bit and mission done. The key is to use the FAGGIO, just grab it by the dumpster when you jump off the building. Do not jump off the building before he does otherwise he stops and no you can't snipe him. He is in a area where you can't hit him. EMAIL FROM: SocrTrump If you know where he jumps of the building at the end, park a car there already and then run back to the window to start the chase, that way you don't have to look around for something to drive. Also, keep your distance in the car chase. You just need to see where they are going, not kill them. If you are far away, they wont shoot at you. ------------------------ II. Phnom Penh '86 ------------------------ Diaz will have you to go over to where the gang's hideout is and take them out, Quentin Vance will come along with you. You'll be on the helicopter in this mission and you need to take out anybody or anything that is shooting at you. You will go through couple places while doing this. After the last place, you will be on foot and you need to retrieve the money the hard way. Go in front of the building, but DON'T GO IN YET! Take out your sniper rifle and aim at any part of the guy's body in there and shoot, he's dead. There are at least 5 or 6 men in there to kill. Head inside and go up to the second floor and stand at the bottom of the stairs that leads to the rooftop, kill the two guys up there. Go upstairs and then take the briefcase, that's it! Mission accomplished! ------------------------ III. The Fastest Boat ------------------------ Diaz wants to be the only man that has the fastest boat in the city, someone in the city has that boat and Diaz wants you to steal it. Grab a car and head over to Vice Port via the southern-most bridge (Yes! finally!) and turn south to where the target is. Stay outside of the fence and shoot anybody that is shooting at you. Once the area is clear, head inside and turn left into the garage, kill the men in there too, but be careful! they got screwdriver in their hand and can stab you! Go to the where the pink aura is in the back of the garage to lower the boat. Ignore the group of men that are shooting at you and run to the boat, hop in and drive it to Starfish Island (pink blip on your radar) You'll get $4,000 for passing this mission. EMAIL FROM: Nocturnal On the mission "The Fastest Boat", there's a more complicated (but ultimately safer) way to do it. First, get yourself some other boat from around Vice City. If you remember the drop-off point after winning the Cuban boat race, there'll be a police boat at that dock. Make sure you have a sniper rifle and sail on over to where the fastest boat is located. Keep your distance, and snipe the guards from the safety of the ocean. When you can't seem to snipe them anymore, dock your boat and head up on the land. Kill whoever's left. Now, do not throw the switch. Take a car and head over to 8-Ball's Bomb Shop and have it outfitted with explosives. Head back to the dock and sit the car just outside of the garage. Go in, flip the switch, and immediately detonate the car. This will take out many of the new guards that appear. Now just run for the speedboat and take off. EMAIL FROM: A. Bixler I got distracted with a car chase by the cops. By the time I got to the dock where the boat was all of the guys that were guarding must've got bored and wandered out into the street where they were easy pickings. EMAIL FROM: SocrTrump At the Dock entrance, there should be a guy walking behind a fence to the left. Wait untill he turns away, and then come around the right side of the fence and kill him.(I use shotgun)Now, run down this side of the building (North, I think). There is a wall that juts out from the building. duck behind it with L3. Get back up with L3 and shoot near people with your shotgun and far people with your sniper. (there are about 5 guys on this side.) that should finish off pretty much all of them on the outside. ------------------------ IV. Supply & Demand ------------------------ Diaz says some guy is selling his cargo to the first boat, so he wants you to take his speedboat and beat all of the other men to it then bring the cargo back here. The quickest route to get there is if you go straight and then veer to the left, beat the two other boats, go through some sharp turns and you're there! When you get back to Starfish Island, there will be some men behind you. Press the circle (O) button to shoot, but with moving target and you being in the boat make it a little bit hard to get a good shot. I suggest keeping the sight steady and tap the circle (O) button at them will get rid of them. After that, the helicopter will fly in and try to take you down, just shoot like crazy at the helicopter and then it will go down. The final boat is out in front of you, take it down and then...oh..whew! Mission accomplished! and that's $10,000! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 3.5 - Tommy Vercetti ------------------------ I. Death Row ------------------------ Go meet up with Kent Paul (K on radar) and he will tell you that Diaz got Lance captured and is being held in the junkyard. Get a car with a strong body and a sniper rifle. Go to the junkyard and you'll see the men has the car blocking you from going into the junkyard, acting like it was some barricade. Ram through the front or the rear end of the car so that you can get in a little quicker. Keep driving until it's on fire and I suggest you get out of the car and hide behind the obstacle in front of the crane. Take out your sniper rifle and take out the guy on top of the crane, the three men in the garage (where Lance is) and some behind and to the right of you. Once you got rid of them (that's not all), go inside the garage and rescue Lance. You need to take him to the hospital fast! Did I say fast? take the Sentinel to the left of the garage and exit out of the junkyard, but that's not the end! You'll have several men in Stingers going after you and try to take you and Lance down. Keep the Sentinel steady and try to take several shortcuts until you reach the hospital. EMAIL FROM: calicat Grab the sea sparrow helicopter behind (D) Diaz's mansion. Fly it to the Club Malibu (K) to start the mission. Once you start your mission use the helicopter to fly to the junkyard where they're holding Lance. Land the helicopter just east of the junkyard entrance on a dock by the water. Run around to the junkyard, kill all the guys, rescue Lance, then you two high tail it back over to your waiting helicopter. Fly him to the hospital and land in the pink circle out front. As you get close to the ground you'll hear the pursuing gang cars smacking into all kinds of stuff trying to get to you. So you have to be careful and land directly in the pink circle to end the mission. EMAIL FROM: F. Reese Here is how I got it, first get the uzi and try to get through while staying alive. if you complete? great, but at some point get the OTHER type of SMG, not the uzi but the gun with the butt on the end of it. after you get that and figure out the mission heal and get armor (I only wasted 100 armor on each run and MADE like 200 hundred rounds for both guns and 2000 dollars per run) then try again. the secret this time is to stay just INSIDE The range of the gun. that OTHER SMG is INSANELY accurate.. Shoot a three to ten round burst and retarget, repeat, you should NEVER go back to a target you already shot at (that is how good this gun is) THen you have to get away, use a crouch rocket or any car, and SNEAK out.. take the FIRST right alley. (barely on the map) go down it over the small red bridge (Careful) and at THIS point you should be able to just ride casually to the end.. enjoy. EMAIL FROM: John H. This is one of the best ways to beat Death Row. First, buy the $400 Uzi at Ammu-Nation in the North Mall. Next, even though this isn't necessary, get Armor. I didn't end up needing it, but better safe than sorry. Get a van, I used a Rumpo... go to the Malibu to get your mission. Drive to the Junkyard and RAM into the vehicle. Try running over as many people as possible until the van's on fire then BAIL OUT. Start auto-targeting and firing the hell out of everyone, make sure you get everyone. THEN, get over to Lance. Have him follow you to the Trashmaster (Truck). This is great, it's infact the key to success. Just drive the Trashmaster normally to the hospital, when Diaz's men ram into you, they'll just bounce off and most likely won't catch up. Again, TRASHMASTER: Key to success. EMAIL FROM: zinnpage I flew my helicopter to the street leading up to the roadblock. Using the helicopter to reach your destination, allows you to save a little time for the gunfight. As soon as I hit the ground, I hit the car with a rocket, which also took out the gangsters using it for cover. I then switched to the Tec-9, and sprinted into the compound. Once I had a little cover, I switched to the SPAS Shotgun. I then moved slowly towards the rear, taking out targets as they presented themselves. It is VERY important to use cover, as it is the only defense against multiple shooters with Rugers. Once I cleared the courtyard, I slowly moved from cover, and took the inside guys out one at a time. I then grabbed Vance, and climbed aboard.... The TRASHMASTER! That's right, take the garbage truck out, and those poor little sports cars end up like recycled coke cans. Just slowly drive to the hospital, and the deed is done. ------------------------ II. Rub Out ------------------------ A pink aura will appear outside of Diaz's mansion, step in it. Lance Vance will pull up besides you and he will show you some nice heavy pieces from inside his trunk, he called them "cannons". You need to go kill Diaz in this mission. Diaz isn't going in a getaway car or a gang of his men will jump on you, so take out each one of Diaz's men one by one. There are at least 5 hanging out in front of the mansion, 3 in the maze on the right side of the mansion. When you enter the mansion, there are two in the little room, 3 more when you go up the stairs and about 6 or 7 including Diaz in the main/big room. Why should you complete this mission? well you get to own the property and $50,000!! EMAIL FROM: K. Wolfe Before you get Diaz's go to Ammunation and pick up a sniper rifle and an automatic weapon. Then start the mission. Go and meet with Lance Vance and careully,when you get to Diaz's Blacktop Driveway snipe all the guards out on the left side of his mansion. Then proceed to the guards on the steps of his mansion in the front. Snipe them out. For the two right in front of the front door, you might have to get at an ange to shoot them. DO NOT go around the right side of the house. Take the left. Since all the guards are dead and its clear Lance will say. "Come on,this way. He will then hotdog it and take on the 4-5 guards that are remaining. Help him out on this, he gets killed easily. When you are inside the are where the pool is inside take the right corridor. Then switch to the automatic weapon. Just push the aim button when you get to the red flight of stairs. He will aim at guards you cant see. Fire at them to kill them. Dont go all the way up the stairs. About midway there is a hallway. Enter it. There will be one guard. Kill him and then you go to the the living/ball/grand room of the house. A cutscene will show of Diaz walking out with his gun. After the scenes over DO NOT kill any of the guards. Go directly for Diaz. Lance can take the guards. Keep pounding on him until he drops. Then a cutscene will roll and there you go. SocrTrump First of all, Don't bother with the guys at the front of the mansion. The middle of this mission has been explained well before. But at the final hallway that leads to the Main Room, pull out your sniper and take out everyone in this room. You can go pretty far before the cutscene rolls, so walk slowly and make sure you have everyone so it will only be Diaz and you. EMAIL FROM: Estel First, go to the AmmuNation down near Cortez's and get the 346-30 automatic weapon...mainly because you can run with it. Then go up to the AmmuNation in the mall and aquire a Sniper Rifle. Go to the second island and go south, take the first right after you pass the last bridge. You will soon see an orangish colored building. Go through the entrance way to see a pool, which contains a rocket launcher. Grab that, get in your vehicle, and head over to Diaz's. When the mission starts, snipe the guys out front, and three on the left side. Using your automatic weapon, follow Lance around the side, making sure to get the guy in the little maze on the left. After you enter the building, and you get to the hallway, stand in the entrance to the big room and snipe everyone. Walk out into the room and the cinema starts. When diaz first walks out into the room, he stands on a balcony...quickly switch to your rocket launcher and shoot one rocket. He will fall, and wait for him to get back up and shoot again. All it takes is all four rockets, and you have him beat. Hope this helps! ------------------------ III. Shakedown ------------------------ It's time to take control of Vice City. You need to go to North Point Mall and try to scare the businesses to beg for protection because they already know that Diaz is dead. You have 5 minutes to get to North Point Mall (in Vice Point) Take the Infernus in front of the mansion and go to the mall. The purple blips on your radar is where you need to go to and break every single window on the store and there are a lot of them. A good strategy for this is if you steal a bike and do a drive-by to every single window. EMAIL FROM: JokeRulz If you're having trouble completing this mission within the time limit, I suggest you use the same strategy that I did. In one of the corners of the mall on the bottom floor... (I'm not playing now so I can't tell you exactly which one, but you'll see) there is an Infernus on display. Use it to drive around the bottom floor of the mall and either drive-by the windows or simply drive through them with your car. I was able to complete the mission with plenty time to spare using this strategy. I hope this helps. Good luck. EMAIL FROM: M. Gevins Pain in the butt mission. Anyway, from your mansion use either a helly or that fast car out front. Make sure the RL is unlocked. Then race over to the mall. I used side entrance on second straightaway. Go inside and make a left towards the coffee shop, RL it with one shot. Then break out the chainsaw, go nuts with the Gash. It should take one hit, stand diagonal to the glass. Then from the upstairs, run down to the only other glass store on the upstairs, middle I think, RL it. Jump down. RL 2x the jewelry place and once for the record store. Should have it with 30 seconds to spare. EMAIL FROM: Randy Grab a dirt bike before starting this mission. The PCJ and the hog are not as manueverable and this mission requires a bit of dexterity. Head over to the mansion and start the mission. Once the clock starts ticking, jump on the motorcycle and head over to the mall. Once you get to the mall, just drive right in! From there, simply do a 'drive by' to all the windows and you're done! The bike will make it up the escalators as well. EMAIL FROM: Hughes I've found that the best way to beat this mission is take the car from the mansion (the one next to the Uzi) and drive directly to the mall. Do not stop for a motorcycle or a second car. You should arrive with 3:30 left on the clock. Once inside, make sure that you have the Uzi with at least 1000 bullets (better safe than sorry). They're cheap ($400) and I bought 3-4 guns from Ammunation before starting the mission. At any rate, just run up to each of the businesses and destroy the windows and kill any of the police officers that try to stop you. Most people will be concerned because the Criminal Rating will spike to either 5-6 stars. Do not worry: As soon as the mission is completed, the rating will drop back down to zero. This mission is MUCH easier than it appears. ------------------------ IV. Bar Brawl ------------------------ In this mission, you need to take out the two men watching over the bar in Ocean Beach, head there and simply do a drive-by on the two men and then get in the pink aura to get the cut-scene going. A yellow blip will appear on the radar, go there and I hope you got a bomb detonator or a grenade. Just throw either one in the little compound area full of gang members and you'll pass the mission, if one escapes, put him out. ------------------------ V. Cop Land ------------------------ A guy failed to connect the wires for the bomb in the mall and you need to blow that place up. To do this, you need to disguise yourself and Lance as cops. Simply bring up two Wanted Level stars to get a cop car or two to follow you into the garage, which is the pink blip on your radar. After the beating, Tommy and Lance will act like cops, its time to head to the mall and do some shopping! Head inside the door that is CLOSEST to the pink blip in the mall. Head inside and stand in the pink aura in the coffee store to get the bomb all ready to go, but you have 5 seconds to get out of there! Once the place explodes, your Wanted Level increases to 5 stars and that is not a good thing, jump back in the car with Lance and DRIVE back to the mansion! do not stop for a donut or anything. EMAIL FROM: moo fasa for the mission "Cop Land" the last Versetti mission where you and Lance have to go and plant the bomb and then get away with 5 stars...etc... I found this out by accident, but it worked both times I did it, since I died the first time. If you jump off the balcony run fast enough (sprint) it will tell you that "You left Lance behind" that is fine since the cops will NOT attack him if he is NOT with you. This makes it so it's just you with 5 stars, and can grab the bribe right below the mall. 4 stars. I ran back through the houses near where you got into garage there is a bribe there (3 stars). With 3 stars all I had to do was steal a car and hit up the paint and spray. NO MORE STARS. went back and walked up to lance who joins you again and cruised back to my house with no problems. I died the first time because I didn't bother to wear some armor before I went and set off the bomb, so I ran out of life right at 3 stars, but tthe second time it worked perfectly. EMAIL FROM: Donald Love Start by driving to the lockup/garage on your map. Next drive up a few blocks to where the police station is (there should be 3 or 4 cops strolling around at least). Do a drive by shooting on the first cop you see, automatically giving you a wanted level of 2. This should get a couple of police cars chasing you (you need two police officers to follow you because Lance will need a uniform aswell). Anyway drive to the garage, but don't rush because you DON'T want to lose the cops... that's the point! Pull up somewhere on the sidewalk, because you want them to follow you in on foot to avoid complications with cars preventing the garage door from closing (this screwed me up like 4 times). Once you're all decked out in your pig skins find a helicopter. This is to prevent a next to impossible car chase at the end of this mission by cop cars and big FBI Ranchers (they are relentless)!!! The way I went about it was to go to my downtown condo with the helipad (EVERYONE should have this if you're at this stage in the game). Then I flew south to the downtown police station and landed on the roof and switched to a police chopper. I'm not sure if you need to, I just figured a normal chopper would draw attention. Anyway fly over to the mall and next to the door closest to the coffee shop containing the bomb there will be a small triangle shaped patch of grass that is more than enough to land a helicopter on. Go in. Plant the bomb. Run. Take out the guard outside the door on you're way out so he doesn't pull you out of the chopper during those 5 seconds it takes to take off (happened to me the first time I tried this strategy). Then fly home! You're protection ring will be complete and you're money troubles are over! EMAIL FROM: Mixedbag As the first part of this mission is incredibly easy (getting the cops to follow you into the garage), I'll just move on. The way that I did it was to jack one of the police cheetah's (3 stars) as it seems a little faster than a normal cheetah AND it is the ONLY police vehicle that can be re-sprayed at a pay & spray. I parked it at El Swanko Casa's garage and saved (before I started the mission). After getting the police uniforms, I picked up the police cheetah and drove to the southeastern upper level entrance of the mall. Park right outside the entrance, the car will still be there when you come out. When you enter the mall, the "tarbrush cafe" will be directly to your right. Run into the shop, do your thing and immediately run out of the mall the way that you came in. Kill the one police officer there, hop in the cheetah and drive straight to the end of the ramp do a 180 and go past the lower level entrance to pickup the police bribe there (to rid yourself of the pesky FBI) and high tail it to the northern pay & spray (check your map). When I did it this way, not a single police car was able to touch me. And thanks to the nifty siren, everybody else got out of my way. Easy as pie. EMAIL FROM: D. Levine Once you get the cop uniforms a Sparrow generates in the field to the left of the garage(left as in when you walk out go to the left, it's the area that has the wooden fence with the gap) I noticed this because I parked my Maverick there and it got replaced. You can fly this to the mall and park it in the grass right outside the entrance where the coffee shop is(it's the first entrance you see(the one of the right if you're coming from the south). Just run in, bomb the place, run out, hop in the helicopter and fly it to the front steps of the your Mansion. ------------------------ VI. Cap the Collector ------------------------ The old man at the PrintWork is getting beat up by Forelli's men, because they know you are taking over Vice City. There are at least 4 to 6 men to kill during this mission and they are all on their own bikes. Get a durable car and don't let them take your tax! The first stop is the Boatyard, head there! but they might have collected your tax already, but when they leave, just gun or run them down! Sunshine Autos is their next location, then the Malibu Club. You need to hurry because if they took tax from each one of the assets you've own, you'll fail the mission. EMAIL FROM: Rich Ok, Apparently, Earnest gets roughed up by Forelli's crew, and now, the mafia is taking over your business ventures, how pleasant isn't it? The order they ( 3 pairs of Forelli's crew, 6 guys on Sanchez Cycles, i think ) went in when I played was: 1) Sunshine Auto, They arrive, Tax the place, and leave 2) The Malibu 3) Ice Cream factory 4) Kaufman Taxi's 5) Film Studio 6) Print works, I think Anyway, a simple strategy for this, is stay in one place, and since the collectors have to come by that place to try and tax it, you can easily kill the three pairs of collectors. I do not recommend chasing them, as they are on Sanchez bikes, and they do go fast, if you see them coming, lock on to them, with an MP-5 and shoot them off. Once the mission is over. ------------------------ VII. Keep Your Friends Close ------------------------ Well...last mission, Lance betrayed you and the mafia is after you. The first thing you got to do is to defend your safe and not let anybody take it. A shotgun or Colt Python or a Ruger is good for defending the safe from the mob. after about 10-15 kills, Lance will run upstairs, you need to run after him and kill him! he takes 3 shots. Your money will be draining while you are going after Lance, don't worry if you have $150,000 but around $50,000, you might. After you kill Lance, head back to the safe room and kill all of the men in there and then watch the scene with Sonny. After that, head back in the safe room and whip your shotgun or a Colt Python out and aim at all of mafia and last, Sonny, he takes at least 5 shots. Game's over. EMAIL FROM: Just a n0thing Welp, the final mission before the credits. This mission made the final story line mission in gta3 look bad. This mission can be tough because you won't have the luxury of stealing a tank or anything to do it. It is all on foot. Before you start the mission you will need an assault rifle or sniper rifle (give you a first person view when you aim). Hopefully you have done the pizza missions and have 150 health. Also make sure you have shield before you start. Once the mission starts grab the pistol and stand at the edge of the stairs. Mafia men will come in from the front door, first floor door on the right, and the second floor door on the right. Just shoot them as they walk in and they shouldn't hit you, but if they hit you once it should be okay. After 10+ of these guys a scene with Lance will start. As soon as the scene with Lance gets over run to the stairs on the right. Shoot Lance once and run after him. DON'T STOP. As soon as you get close he will run away. Don't look back and follow him all the way to the roof. Now when you get to the roof run up the ramp to the right of the helipad. You will take some damage on your way to the helipad. Once you are up there slowly approach the edge of the helipad. DON'T GO TO THE END OF IT THOUGH. When you see a mafia man's head, pull out either the assault rifle or sniper rifle and shoot them. If you do this correctly, you should get about 4 head shots. Next is Lance. Slowly approach the edge of the helipad to the left of a barrel that is centered next to the little guard rail. As soon as you can see Lance's head, creap a little bit closer and you should be able to see his shoulders. Now shoot him. **IF YOU GET TO CLOSE TO FAST, THEY WILL BE ABLE TO SHOOT YOU!!!** So make sure not to just run up there. Now after Lance you will probably have one more guy down there. Make sure you don't aim at the red barrels, they will explode and that is bad for your health. There is a health power up there if you need it. Now for the tricky part. Run back down and head to the middle of the balcony directly across from the safe. Shoot the men inside the safe room and head to the door to the room with the safe. A little scene will come on. Now immediately disperse of Sonny's two guards. As soon as you kill them both, RUN as fast as you can down the steps trying your hardest not to get hit by Sonny. You need to get to the room which has the health and armor in it. It is the small room with the bar in it (down the stairs and to the left). After grabbing the armor and health use the colt to shoot Sonny. Took me 5+ shots. Thats how I finished the mission. It was tough and it took me a while to get a good strategy. But it worked in the long run. I definetly reccomend trying to do the pizza missions before you try this because the 150 health saved me in the long run. Good fun and good luck. EMAIL FROM: MScottH Stay in the office untill it tells you to go get lance . When you leave the office have the mp-5. After the cut scenene go away from lance. Go to the stairs and go up. Kill all who stand in your way. Autotargeting weapons here are nice and I recomend the SPAZ-12 once you get in the stairway. Go up to the roof. MP-5 recomended here! Run to the adrenilin once you get there, then run to the health but you shouldnt need it yet. Sniper rifle here. Creep forward and snipe everyone. Lance takes 3 shots. Explosives are an option here, they just stand there 'till they have a clear shot. Mabee they shoot but it doesnt matter. so you killed all lances budies... time to deal with the boss... The trigger here is going into the office. Set it off and tear out of there!!! Go upstairs and then downstairs and put your armor and health up to 100. Then go OUTSIDE not up. The resistance is light! Kill them all (MP-5 or SPAS-12) DESTROY THE LIMOSINES!! M-60!!! No more backup! Walk throuugh the front door and he has his back turned! CUT HIM DOWN!! Mabee its not so easy but I cut him down with the m-60. EASY! EMAIL FROM: Rich Ok, Lance calls you on the cell phone and tells you that there is a problem, and you need to get over there right away. First, when you arrive at the mansion, get all the weapons you can from outside, Trust me, you WILL need them in this mission. The cut scene starts out with Rosenberg, Lance, and Vercetti, talking about how the Forelli's are coming from up north. A second cut scene shows that Lance is in fact, A TRAITOR. He was working for the Forelli's all along. The mission starts with you guarding your safe from mobsters. An easy way to do this, is have the Python out or the MP-5 out. Then, when you leave the room after wasting 6 mafia members, you have to kill Lance. You shoot him, he runs up the stairs to the roof of the mansion. Word of Advice, Take out the Red barrels, first, and use the Minigun ( You should have it if you have 60 packages or beat Phil Cassidy's missions ). This is where it might get confusing: As you are trying to kill Lance, the Mafia will be robbing your safe. At a certain point, when your health is below 50, go to the basement, get health, and armor, and the shotgun and the M4. Go back to the roof, and run to the left side of the roof. You should be on the helipad, with Lance below you. Kill Lance, and head back downstairs. Another cutscene should start, and you now have to Kill Sonny Forelli. The Mafia will continue robbing your safe, but go down, and kill Sonny first. Try the Minigun, or take a position upstairs and trying sniping him, if that doesn't work, use the machinegun, and lock onto him. After you kill Sonny, a cut-scene opens up, with Rosenberg, and Vercetti, and you have just beat Vice City. ( Note: Whenever you get low on health, run down stairs to the basement, get health and armor and head back up ) EMAIL FROM: Jeff best weapon to have is the spaz shotgun...but grenades and perhaps the M-60 are helpful too. 150 ammo is necessary for the shotgun too. when you have to get somewhere in a hurry, switch your weapon to the pistol or MP-5 temporariliy. as soon as it starts, run out and dispatch the people coming in no problem using auto target on the shotgun. after that lance will challenge you. now, he's very accurate and will tear your body armor to shreds if you give him a chance. RUN to the right side and shoot him once, he will run off. clear a path for yourself and run after him. he'll stop at the end of the corner once, again, and also stop on the stairs. just run out and shoot him once as quick as you can. be quick as men might come from behind you. now on the top level, run to the left (as men come from behind you if you linger there) and get the adrenaline pill. kill lance's men and then lance, a 7 round shotgun clip will take him out. now, if you need ANY armor at all, go to the basement or the side room and get it now. 100 armor/health is very advisable. you can also go around the house and take out the limos using the shotgun or the M-60 if you like (this prevents men taking your money from your office), just don't go back to your office until you're ready. when you are, go there, and sonny will come after you with two guys right by him, and many more coming soon. RUN up the stairs and around until you are right above the door where sonny is. from there, take out sonny's two men who run after you, and any more who go for the safe. then, either drop a couple grenades right on him, or run to the side and unload a complete 7 round clip on him. careful...he can't hit you from that spot above the doorway, but he as soon as you go to the left or right stairs. he has a ruger and he's accurate as, well, as much as the boss of the game is gonna be. after you take him down, enjoy the cinematics. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 3.6 - Rock Band Missions ------------------------ I. Love Juice ------------------------ The Love Fist wants you to go get some drugs for them called "Love Juice". On your radar is a pink blip, go there and drive your fast car or motorcycle and enter the pink aura, then beep the horn. A guy will come up and take your money and not give you the drugs. Chase down after him and his PCJ-600 and run him over. He has a shotgun with him, so watch out. After the dealer is dead, take the briefcase and then you get a call asking you to pick up Mercedes so that the Love Fist can have some company. So, go pick Mercedes up and you have a time of 1:30 (1 minute, 30 seconds) to get her to the band and the drugs too before they go on stage. EMAIL FROM: M16 Love Fist wand some drugs so take a fast like a Banshee and park it in a way so it is easy to get out of that little ally. (ie: back it in) The guy will come and take you money and try to getaway on a PCG 600. Catch up with your fast and knock him off the bike and run him over. You will get a call telling you to pick up a girl for them. Take the briefcase and get on his PCG 600. The PCG 600 is good for this last part of the mission because you can weave through cars go pick her up and now you will have a minute and 30 seconds to get her back to the VRock station. She hops on the PCG 600 and go down the ramp and take a right. That should be the route that goes past Leaf Links Golf Course. This route is fast and if there are any cars just weave though them. If your going fast enough you should make it there with 20 seconds to spare with no problem. EMAIL FROM: Rich M. The best way I've found to get the guy off of the bike is to not try to keep with him in traffic (as he weaves a lot), but instead to use your Uzi (or MAC10) and keep shooting while maintaining a comfortable distance behind him. When a stray bullet hits him, he'll be off the bike and dead, leaving you free to pick up the "stuff" and go get the girl. ------------------------ II. Psycho Killer ------------------------ There is a stalker going after the band abd the band is afraid when they heard that this stalker is going to kill them. Jump in the Love Fist limo and go to the pink aura next to the pizza place. Watch the scene here and one of the fans is the stalker. He or she will jump into the car and drive away. You need to keep an eye on this car for this whole mission because it won't appear on your radar. Try to get it in flame before it goes anywhere else. There seems to be more cars on the road for this mission as well. EMAIL FROM: C. Farthing In the Lovefist 'Psycho Killer' Mission, you are supplied with a stretch limo to chase and kill the Lovefist stalker. He escapes in a fast car and you have to catch him. Your stretch is slightly faster than his car but the handling isn't as good, and you have to keep up as there is no 'blip' on the map. What you really need is a faster car with better handling, but which also can take plenty of damage. Fortunately, in the alley behind the signing event venue is an FBI Washington, which fits the bill perfectly. So, start the mission in the stretch, drive to the venue but stop just short of the pink beam, get out and steal the Washington, bring it back to where the stalker makes his getaway from, get out of the Washington leaving the door open, back into the stretch, and drive into the pink beam. Now when he drives off, hop into the Washington and give chase. Avoid the trashmaster just before Ammunition and you should soon be able to do him over. EMAIL FROM: A. MacDonald Simplest method of all -> Grab a PCG 600 or a Sanchez (I prefer a Sanchez for maneuverability) and park it beside where the pink beam appears. When the psycho drives off, get out of the limo, and hop on your bike. Now proceed to leisurely shoot up the psychos car until it explodes. If he gets out, hop of the bike, target him with an uzi type, and let rip. Easy. ------------------------ III. Publicity Tour ------------------------ Love Fist wants to go on a tour and they need you to drive the car. The Love Fist limo is packed with a bomb that will explode the car if you drive too slow or stop. Have you ever watched the movie Speed? with the bus? just like that. If not, you need to stay on the gas for about 2 minutes or close around there until a member in the band disarm the bomb. After that, take the band to the stage in Downtown. EMAIL FROM: Mark For "Publicity Tour", there is a place where you can safely drive around for a bit while the worthless Love Fist guys defuse the bomb. From the start of the mission, immediately make a u-turn and go towards the stadium/racing ring (you may need to familiarize yourself with its location before-hand). You can go around the back of the ring without encountering any traffic (except for briefly getting back on the small straightaway that's directly in front of the ring). You don't even have to go that fast; if you see the detonation meter start to fill up, just accelerate a bit more. Anyway that's the easiest way I've found to do it. EMAIL FROM: Rich M. Rather than swinging a U-turn and then getting onto the dirt ring you can carry on straight ahead. The left turn ahead is a pretty gentle curve that is best taken at speed (with little risk of spinning out) by heading for the inside curb. This road takes you onto the main, 4-lane road that stretches clear to the South side. Keep to the right on this road and it will curve slowly right and then start to come back on itself. By the time you've come back around the South curve Love Fist (incompetent wankers that they are) should have defused the bomb. Then it's a leisurely trip back to the Stadium for the big gig. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 3.7 - Biker Missions ------------------------ I. Alloy Wheels of Steel ------------------------ Go inside the Greasy Chopper and meet Mitch Baker, the biker. He will give you respect if you can handle the motorcycle. Go outside and get on the Angel or the Freeway, your choice, and then get in the pink aura to start the race. Now, here are the rules... no shooting or hitting the other bikers or you will lose the race. You need to go from checkpoint to checkpoint and TAKE IT EASY when you go on a turn. The other bikers will just run straight in the wall and tumble and all that other stuff. You can easily win this race if you haven't fall off the motorcycle. So, like I said, if you have to take a turn, then go SLOW. EMAIL FROM: Robert M. Here is another way to finish the "Alloy wheels of Steel" mission. When the mission starts and the other bike riders are at the starting point, do not get on a bike right away. Go and find the biggest cars/vans/trucks you can find, go around the block so that your vehicles are facing the other bike riders, and park your vehicles in a straight line in front of them. Do not touch the riders with the vehicles, and do not go too far away to find vehicles, or the ones you have already parked in front of the bike riders might disappear; but as long as you dont use too many or leave an area of a block or two from the starting point you should be ok. Also, the most important points are dont leave any gaps in front of the riders, and dont use any really small vehicles, like other motorcycles, to block the riders. Otherwise, they'll blow right thru your road block. As long as you use normal-sized cars, usually only two or three, you should be ok. Finally, make sure you leave a small gap on the far lefthand side of the sidewalk near where your motorcycle starting point is. Then, get on a bike and goto your starting point. If all goes well, you can laugh as you breifly see the other riders slam into the parked cars as you go flying thru your gap. They probably wont fall off their bikes, but they will get turned over or around enough to give you a huge lead, I basically coasted with a 2:11 time and won the race with no other riders in sight (I even fell off 2 times). EMAIL FROM: AaneoaA When u get out of the bar, there are 3 bikers waiting for u to race them. There are also 2 bikes standing on the sidewalk dont take one of these bikes! but instead walk up to the bikers that are waiting for u to start the race, not to close however.....when you`re near them press the /\ Triangle button to knock one of `em of his bike and steal it. The race will start immedeately after that, but hey who cares right? Now u only have 2 guys to worry about instead of 3! At first i thought it was just plain luck....but i tried it a couple of times and it works like a charm. The trick is to stand not to close and yet not to far away from the bikers when u press the triangle button EMAIL FROM: LordVegeta88 The easiest way to win this is to put 2 vans sideways across the road in front of the 3 riders. Also, do NOT go in the pink. The race will also start if u hit one of the other bikes with yours, therefore the easiest way is to go back a little, not far because there is a turn right ahead. Just accelerate past the slow start up and tap into the rider on the right. Go around the roadblock through the sidewalk. The key to winning now is not speed but stability. Make no crashes and this race is yours. An alternative to the tap is shooting out tires. ------------------------ II. Messing with The Man ------------------------ Mitch wants you to be the biggest baddest person in Vice City. To do this, you need to stir up a riot and get your Chaos level filled up. You have 2 minutes to stir up a large riot. To get the meter to go up, you need to kill people, shoot at cars, etc. The easiest way to beat this mission quickly is if you rack up 6 stars before doing this mission and steal a tank and then drop it off at the Hyman Condo, then save. Take the tank out and go to the Greasy Chopper to start the mission, then all you got to do now is drive. EMAIL FROM: Mark Before even beginning "Messing With the Man," I always park about 3-4 cars in front of Mitch's Bar. Also, it's good to have a shitload of health and armor, a lot of M4 ammo, and a lot of spaz ammo (all of which except the health can be gotten at the ammunation on the left island). After the cutscene that initiates the mission, immediately take out the spaz and begin destroying the 3-4 parked cars in front of the bar (note that the spaz fires pretty rapidly if you hold down the x button). This should move your chaos meter up a bit and bring some cops. Run to the northeast (up-right) of Mitch's bar (if you're facing away from it) to where a wall and an opening is. If you look in the alley to the left of the opening, you'll find body armor. Save it for when you start taking some major damage. Now get your wanted level up to at least 3 stars (should be easy with your arsenal). Continue to use the spaz on all the cop cars and cops themselves. For the cars, don't use the auto-aim, but do use the auto-aim for the cops (R1 and cycle using L2/R2). When the police maverick (helicopter) comes, take it out using your M4 (takes a while but your chaos meter will jump). Your chaos meter should be about 2/3 or 3/4 full by now. After taking out the helicopter, switch to your spaz and finish the job. Remember the body armor if you need it. *The most important thing to remember is that blowing up cars fills up your chaos meter infinitely quicker than killing people.* You will retain your wanted level after the mission is done, so get the hell out of there. EMAIL FROM: MScottH Save at Scumhole shack. Get your wanted level up to 3 or 4 before you start the mission and immediately run up to scumhole shack after you regain control. Kill all the vehicles (especially hellicopters) except ambulances. Use an M-60 and the MP-5. When I passed the first time I jacked an FBI Rancher but there was an Fbi guy onboard. He cried all the way to pay and spray, and then back to the mansion. I got out and shot him, went upstairs and saved. I use the m-60 instead of the rocket launcher because if you shoot the rocket launcher to close to the edge of a building, through a railing, or at a target that is close, you die. The m-60 is much more forgiving! Wish you could use elevation on the chaingun. Its realy only usefull in a garage! EMAIL FROM: Golfmaster The easiest way to beat this mission is to first acquire the flamethrower at the star shaped pool by diaz's mansion, then park a couple cars in front of the biker bar place. After that get the mission and then start using the flamethrower on the cars and the people on the sidewalks, your bar should go up super fast and you should have it beat within 15 to 30 seconds. EMAIL FROM: Deoji I discovered this little trick and it makes the mission ridiculously easy. Before accecpting mission load up on rocket launchers (in the pool behind Hooker Inn in Vice Port) then start the mission killing pedestrians. I stood on the staircase on the way to shack. once a cop shows up switch to the rocket launcher and blow up his squad car. now here is the trick keep shooting the destroyed cop car and your chaos meter shoots right up. The game doesnt recognize that the squad car is already destroyed I completed the mission with 45 secends to spare. ------------------------ III. Hog Tied ------------------------ Mitch tells you that you that a local gang stole his bike and he needs you to go get it back for him. After that, a scene shows you the Ammu-Nation and the long stairway across the street from it, are you thinking what I'm thinking? Yeah? For real? then go do it! First off, make sure you have a good gun like an Uzi or Tec-9 and get on a bike, not a moped. Go to the yellow blip on your radar then you need to be at full-speed on your bike to go up that long stairway to get onto the top of the Ammu-Nation. Some gang members will be up there, kill them, then go down the stairs on the opposite side and then kill the rest of the gang down there. Grab Mitch's bike and then bring it back to him! EMAIL FROM: Rich M. I've heard a lot of people complain about the Cuban roadblocks between where you rescue the bike and the Greasy Chopper. I found an easy way to get there bypassing all that noise. Simply ride around to the street that runs East from the Love Fist studio (the one with the Ammunation on it). This takes you to the bridge that leads to prawn Island. Just to the right side of that bridge is a gap between the bridge itself and the building on the street. Take the bike through this gap, turn right and you're on your way to the Greasy Chopper totally unmolested. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 3.8 - Umberto Robina ------------------------ I. Stunt Boat Challenge ------------------------ It may sounds and looks like an easy mission to pass, but it's not. You need to go from checkpoint to checkpoint then turn around and go all the way back to the start. Several checkpoints requires you to use the ramp to reach it. You may get stuck on the land when you jump up off the first ramp, I know I did and wasted at least 1 minute. So, to get pass this successfully, steer your boat easily and when you are going in a turn, release the gas then turn left or right then press the gas again after that. ------------------------ II. Cannon Fodder ------------------------ Stop by Cafe Robina's for the 2nd time to get involved some ground action! shooting involved! Interested? Make sure you have a Sniper Rifle and an Uzi or some kind of a machine gun, and also make sure your armor and health meter is full. Pick up a van or a Greenwood driving around because you'll bring some Cubans with you. Drive down to the pink marker and you'll be in for some action. Take out the car and whoever is leftover behind the car to get pass the first part of this mission quickly. Three Cubans will be rushing down in the alley and all of the sudden their head got blown off! ah! there's a sniper on the roof up ahead, take him out and the Haitians in the alley as well. Keep going until you reach the big area full of Haitians, take all of them out and then take the van and drive it back to Cafe Robina's EMAIL FROM: N. Mallikarjuna I had a lot of trouble with this mission until I figured out the following strategy: First, you'll take a lot of damage during this mission from gunfire so make sure you have max body armor and health. I recommend going to a prostitute before the mission so your health is 125. Get in your four door vehicle and pick up the Cubans, then drive to where the Haitians are. After the short cinematic, get back in the car and drive forward and left, behind the building the Cubans are using for cover. From here you can see the car the Haitians are hiding behind, but you can't hit the Haitians, who are behind the wall (but you see the arrows above pointing to them.) Use the Rocket Launcher to blow up the car, killing the Haitians nearby. Wait a second or two for more Haitians to come, then use the Rocket Launcher on the car again. The explosion will kill a few more Haitians. There should only be two or three Haitians left behind the wall. Jump onto your car (this is why you brought it) so you can see over the wall, and take care of the other two (or maybe lob some grenades over the wall). The second short cinematic will occur, and now you have to kill the sniper. Use the Rocket Launcher or a sniper rifle to kill the sniper. That's usually the easiest part. Now comes the part that gave me a lot of trouble. I sustianed too much damage from the Haitians trying to kill them. The solution: don't try to kill them. Just hide behind a building, clear of any gunfire (from the Haitians or from the Cubans). The Cubans will do the job for you, killing all the Haitians. Just watch the yellow blips on the small corner map disappear. The next cinematic appears, and now you have a van to steal a bunch of Haitians coming after you. The best thing to do is to use a manual targeting assault rifle to blow away as many Haitians as possible. They're all in a group so you can kill a lot at once, since it only takes one shot from the assault rifle to kill someone. Once you've killed a bunch of Haitians and the gunfire has eased up, get in the van and drive out, running over any Haitians in the way. Then drive back to the bar. You'll have two stars so the cops will be on you, but don't drive to fast and wreck the van. Once you're back the cops disappear. ------------------------ III. Naval Engagement ------------------------ Umberto wants you to go grab the shipment from the Haitians and kill them. Grab a car and go meet Rico near Vice Port. Now, Rico's boat is full of holes and it won't hold for long, You need a good weapon for this type of business. You got at least 10 Haitians on the dock and some more on the boats. Take the ones on the boat out and then Rico will get you on the dock. Got a sniper rifle? good, take all of them men out and then grab the two briefcases (yellow blips) and then GET OUT OF HERE!! why? because once Rico's boat explodes, you automatically get 4 Wanted Stars for that, just jack a fast car and head back to Umberto's place to complete this mission! EMAIL FROM: Ling After destroying the two Haitian boats and the men on the dock/by the house, you will probably have a wanted level of 2 by then. Don't collect the briefcases yet. Instead, run out to the street, take any car, avoid the cops, and drive to the nearest Pay N' Spray (the one on the same street as Cherry Poppers). With your wanted level gone, you can take your time to steal the fastest car possible (preferably Cheetah), and park it next to the briefcases. When your wanted level shoots up to 4, you now have an immediate escape with a fast car, which you can again take to Pay N' Spray without much police hassle to complete the mission. EMAIL FROM: joyful alom First you have to be equipped with the right weapons. so the best weapons are the M4 and the sniper rifle or PSG1. then when you meet rico out in the dock there will be a short cutscene. Rico will drive you to the haitians boat. then a message in bold will come saying: KILL ALL THE HAITIANS ON THE BOAT! do wot it says. but just before you start going get out ur M4 then get good aim on the Haitians on the dock then shot about 3 or four bullets. by now the Haitians will be all shooting at you. so just aim at the Haitians on the boat and take them out. even if your aim is not good enough the boat will burst in flames. Ok now for the next part. when you get on land your on your own. now get a gun like a handgun so you can run fats enough.then run to the other side. where there is a wall then a tree. they will shoot at you but most likely miss most shots. now its time to play sniper. get out your sniper or PSG1 then just shoot them down. there is one on the roof one near the door and one behind the bush you will eventually find them. its best to shoot them all so there is no interference. then collect the drugs. there will be 2 Haitians shooting at you so just take them out. then there is no escape and you will now have 4 stars. then just run into the front. and you will be in starfish Island. just take a car to your mansion. then get the clothes to decrease your wanted level. now you will have 2 stars to make your ride easier to umberto then the misson is finished EMAIL FROM: LordVegeta88 Have a rocket launcher handy for this mission. When you are told to kill all the haitians on boats, shoot a rocket at the boat on the right. Then duck for a second or go ahead and shoot the other boat. Using a colt python kill off the near guys and head for cover. Since the Uzi has better range take out the guys shooting you with that. Then use a manual aim gun to pick off the remaining guys. Do not skip the guy on the roof or the guy hiding behind the corner on the right side of the building, his shotgun hurts. Pick up the briefcases and drive/run to your mansion. The easiest choice now is to take the helicopter back to the cafe. You could take a stored car or the Infernus and either drive to the Pay n Spray or the cafe, whichever is easier for you. ------------------------ IV. Trojan Voodoo ------------------------ Pick up a Voodoo first (there is one out in front of Auntie Poulet's house) and then head back to where Umberto is. He wants you to blow up the Haitian' compound. Get in the Voodoo and Pepe will come with you to go meet Rico outside the compound. Follow Rico in the compound and you need to set 3 bombs up inside the compound. Don't worry about the Haitians since the Cubans will take care of them, just worry about the bomb and the timer. When you plant the first bomb on the right, you have 1 minute to plant two more bombs in the place and leave. The second place to plant the bomb is around the corner and the third place is up on the 2nd floor. You will have about 20-30 seconds left on your clock, leave IMMEDIATELY! You can take the Voodoo, but you can't leave the compond because the gate is closed. In the area where the gate is while you are running on foot, turn right and right again to go up the steps to get on top of the building. Watch the compound crumbles into pieces and you will be given $10,000! EMAIL FROM: Ryan S. I found this mission to be much easier if instead of going straight to arming the bombs, you first kill all the Haitians. The easiest way to do so, I think, is to immediately run over/drive-by all the Haitians before parking in the pink blip. Then, do not leave your vehicle when instructed, and instead, run over the Haitians that have appeared since you parked. It is easy to enter the building and run over/drive-by these Haitians, too. After you've killed all the Haitians, it is much easier to arm all the bombs and escape to the roof in time. EMAIL FROM: Randy When setting the bombs, be sure to set the bomb on the second floor (the one farthest away) first. Set the second bomb under the stairs next and save the one next to the door for last. Will keep you from getting blown up before you reach cover. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 3.9 - Auntie Poulet ------------------------ I. Juju Scramble ------------------------ Auntie Poulet wants you to go pick up some stashes for her before the cops get to it. There are 3 stashes and they aren't very far from here. Jack a car and go to where the yellow blip is on the radar and it is a good idea to park it next to the ramp that leads up to the roof where the 1st stash is. Grab it and a spy will catch you and you'll get 2 Wanted Stars. Run out of here and get back in your car and go to where the 2nd stash is, just stop right next to it so when you get out of the car, it'll take you 1 millisecond to get it and then jump right back in the car and drive over to the last stash, and be careful now! you got 4 Wanted Stars! If the cops or SWAT catch your car on fire, just immediately leave the car and run to the 3rd stash and run back to Auntie Poulet via several shortcuts. Don't take the main road or side roads because the Police cars and Enforcers are all over the street. EMAIL FROM: A. Raja On this mission you should do it in a police car as the police get a bit confussed when they are chasing you, and this gives you a bit of breathing space EMAIL FROM: serbian55 Firstly steal a bike, any really just get your favourite, and head over to the first pick-up site. Ride the bike up the ramp next to the building and park it next to the package. get off, watch the cut scene, than get bake on your bike and ride to the next package. After picking it up go in the direction of the next package. As you'll have 4 stars pick up the police bribe thats located in the ally on the way to the third package. Now you're back in the Haitian area, head strait across the road into the housing site. Now waste the rest of the time you have left just running around, but make sure you're close to the package (Get off the bike). When there's about five seconds left run for the package. After the time runs out shoot the guy who picks up the package wit your Mac-10 or Uzi and run over to his body and press L1. Now you have the drugs and a new MP-5 (this is the best SMG in the game). Try it out if you want, or run back into the houses you just came from. Don't sprint when in-between the houses (you'll need it later). When you're thru the houses hit the sprint button (X) and run to the red blip. ------------------------ II. Bombs Away! ------------------------ This time, Poulet wants you to destroy the Cuban boats out around Starfish Island. Drive over to where the Top Fun van is and then enter it. You'll be driving the RC Baron plane. You need to go over to where the Cubans are and drop a bomb on them by pressing the O (circle) button. Destroy the three boats and their getaway car and that's it. The only hard part is controlling the little plane. EMAIL FROM: Circle Tilde Instead of trying to waste your time and efforts attempting to bomb the boats and car.. just fly the first plane over to the Cubans and LAND the plane in the large backyard where the Cuban car is parked at. Then all you have to do is (while STILL on the ground) run into the men on the ground. This will kill them after a bit, and they are too stupid not to do anything about it. After all of the men are dead, you can then focus your efforts on blowing up the boats. Just drive the plane off the pier onto one of the boats (preferably the middle one) and release the bomb. You are unable to release it while you are on the ground so you must time the release carefully as you fall off the edge of the pier. EMAIL FROM: Ryan S. Because the RC Plane is so difficult to accurately control, and the bombs are so difficult to deliver accurately, I found this mission to be much easier if you first kill all the Cubans on the dock beside their boat before you drop any bombs. To do so, land your RC plane behind the house and taxi to the dock area. All that is required is to run over each Cuban a few times (depends on speed) until they stay motionless and a pool of blood begins to form under them. Be careful not to fall into the water, and also, try to avoid pushing the Cubans (if you do not hit them fast enough, the plane will only push them) into their boats. Once you've killed all the Cubans, you can take off and begin bombing the boats (now much easier because they are stationary, as no one is there to flee with them). ------------------------ III. Dirty Lickin's ------------------------ Poulet wants you to go help her boys out (the Haitians) and help them beat the Cubans. They have their own surprise, but you have a better one. Tommy will grab the sniper rifle off the table. You don't need a car, just turn left out of Poulet's house and go to that spot on the roof, but you might want to take the Adrenaline pill below the step. Step in the pink aura and snipe off all the Cubans (wearing a shirt with a red cirle on it or they wear tan clothes). A van of four Cubans will pull up later, take them four out as well. 7 more Cubans will be rushing across the field from the north and kill them all to complete the mission. EMAIL FROM: Nigel D. I reckon Dirty Lickens is tougher than it looks but the best way to do this is to start the mission by running from Poulet's shack, pick up the adrenaline pill and start with the sniper rifle. It's dead tough to get the reinforcements with the sniper though, due to the slow reload. If you land a rocket in the middle of the seven cubans as they run across in front of you, it takes all seven out, leaving you just a couple of shots to finish off the remaining Cubans with the sniper rifle. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 3.10 - Phil Cassidy ------------------------ I. Gun Runner ------------------------ A simple mission, a Mexican gang has the goodies and Phil wants you to go take it from them. There are at least 4 trucks called Walton that has the goodies in the back, and you need to ram into the truck hard enough for the package to drop out from the back and then pick it up. The Mexicans will go after you in the truck, but it wouldn't be a big deal if you have a drive-by type gun on you. EMAIL FROM: GTA-Nut After completing the Malibu Club assets, the Phil levels are open. For this level, Phil wants you to take out some arms dealers. Take his patriot and head left or right, its your preferance. Ram one of the vans at full speed and if necessary tap it more till it drops the weapon. Once it does, get out and collect the weapon (you may need to use L1 to switch weapons) but be careful! The van you just rammed will come back for another assault. If you can, destroy it, as you will need to later anyway. The next vehicle will have a gunner on the back, so be careful. Use the same ramming tactic, but i wouldn't get out due to the gunner until you have destroyed them. Try to attack them with your Uzi drive-by style. Once you have collected the first two packages, they will call for backup. Don't panic, its just a few idiots on bikes with dangerous guns. If you're in a car, you can smack em down easily (you get $100 bonus for each guy you kill) but if you walk, you are an easy target. Try to ignore them and focus on the weapon carriers. Don't forget you need to destroy the vehicles also. If you need more armour in this level (i know i did a few times) try to find where the two armours are in this area. One near the Greasy Biker area in a garage near the road and the other in the stairway of the entrance to the boatyard area. Take your time on this mission and don't rush it and you will pass it fine. ------------------------ II. Boomshine Saigon ------------------------ The dizziest mission ever. Watch the hilarious scene of drunk Phil trying to set off a bomb. After that, with Phil's bleeding and you drunk, you need to drive Phil to the hospital and the driving isn't that easy at all. The screen will wavers back and forth while you are driving and its really hard for you to focus on the road. As long as you don't turn too much on the straight roads, no problem. When you arrive at the hospital, Phil tells you that he doesn't wanna go in there because of cops so he will tell you to go to the place in Little Havana, which isn't far from the hospital. EMAIL FROM: GTA-Nut An easy level. Phil, being the idiot he is, gets drunk on paint stripper and messes around with a bomb....you can guess what happens. Take him to the hospital not far down the road on the right. Sounds simple? You're drunk also, as Phil says, 'The road is like jelly'. The best bet is to use the screen to look out for cars and use tha radar to position where you are going. Once you get closer, the drunken effect wears off abit, so you should be able to go it normally. Once you've done this, you've completed the Phil's assets! You can now buy all kinds of seriously powerful hardware from this guy. For just two missions, its worth it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Phone Missions ------------------------ P.1 - Phone Mission #1 (Road Kill) ------------------------ It is up to you to go to the payphone or move on to your next objective. Anyway, you need to kill Carl Pearson, the pizza delivery man. He is the yellow dot moving around on your radar. Kill him or run him over to get $500. ------------------------ P.2 - Phone Mission #2 (Waste the Wife) ------------------------ Another hands-on mission, go to the pink blip on your radar with a car that has a strong body and doesn't rock too much. Wait for Mrs. Dawson to leave the Jewelry store. You have to make this mission to act like Mrs. Dawson was killed in a car accident. Ram your car into the car she's in until it burst into flame. Yo can also wait when her car go around on a turn and you can ram your car into the side of her car and make it flip over, this will get it to expode as well. You will collect $2000 for this. EMAIL FROM: Neon Meow! In the Waste the Wife mission, you aren't allowed to use guns to kill her. But that doesn't stop you from using guns to shoot out her tires, making her unable to drive properly. You'll need to follow her without hitting her, and wait until she stops at a red light. Then hop out of your car, shoot her tires with any gun that lets you go to 1st person view, and enjoy the show. You still need to hit her to do actual damage to the car, but she will not be able to get away if your car catches on fire first. EMAIL FROM: LordVegeta88 The easy way to do this is to park a car in poor condition in front of the wife's car. Then simply shoot your car with a manual aim gun until it catches fire. Step back and watch the fireworks as u collect your reward. ------------------------ P.3 - Phone Mission #3 (Autocide) ------------------------ Some European gang has come in town and planned to rob the bank. The boss didn't want this to happen, so you need to kill each member of the gang. Some can be found in a high spot where you have to use the sniper rifle. The first person is Mark Griffon and he is standing up high on the advertising billboard, you need to whip out your sniper rifle to kill him. Your next target is Dick Tanner and he is working for DBP Security in Ocean Drive, head over there and you'll see him in the Securicar. Either exit out of the vehicle and pull him out of the car and kill him or ram his Securicar down. Your next target are Franco Carter and Marcus Hammond, both of them are in the Bobcat. After you take both fo them out, Nick Kong is your next target and he's just laying back in his boat, take him out too! Your last target is Charlie Dilson on his ultra-fast PCJ-600, if you are still riding the PCJ-600 and have the Uzi in your hand, you can press O while on the motorcycle behind Dilson to take him out. If you are not on the PCJ-600, then go rob a top performance car like the Cheetah or Infernus and run him over with it. Best weapon? Sniper rifle for the first four men. EMAIL FROM: Firestorm First, run to the arm cache and take the sniper. Use the bike or take a FAST car. Go to the first blip, Go out your car and use the sniper rifle to kill the first target. This one's an easy one since he cannot spot you! Drive to the other target now. To avoid being spotted by him or the cops, go through the back alley (almost where the mission "Guardian Angels" took place), aim at his head and kill him inside his car. Now drive to the 2 other guys, don't drive in front of them, but go around. On the street right in front of them, there is a stair case. Go there and aim for the driver, be sure to kill him with one good shot. The other guy will come out, you know what to do. The next target is relaxing on a boat. Drive past the blip (you should cross a bridge). Go near the water and shoot him, easy as ABC. The last one may be a problem since it's a moving target on a bike. Try not to be seen and wait for him to drive near you. I found that the best way to kill him is to get a fast car and ram it. When he's on the ground, just kill him with any weapon!! Be careful, the cops may be on to you very soon if you shoot your rifle near a crowed area !! Be sure to always conceal yourself and use backalleys! EMAIL FROM: Dan Get the sniper and uzi and hop on the motorcycle parked right next to where those guns are. Drive over to the billboard guy, snipe him and then head over to the guy in the security van. Because you have the uzi and are on a motorcycle, its easiest just to follow him and shoot at his car. You'll probably knock out a few tires in the process and the car will start smoking... he'll get out and you can just gun him down. You can then go over to the next guy and snipe out the driver... then shoot the other guy. For the guy on the boat it's really easy, just snipe him. Get back on your motorcycle and follow the 5th guy shooting at him... he'll crash and mission accomplished. EMAIL FROM: Kavenator The key is to keep the motorcycle, the final assassination is VERY DIFFICULT without it. I used an M4 and [optionally] a rocket launcher. There are 6 people you will have to kill. I do not remember all there names but: 1> Billboard guy. Simply shoot him with a scoped gun (M4). 2> Armored truck guy. Across the street from the amour car is an alley, the same alley as the guardian angels. Park the bike in the alley and go up the same stairs to the platform that started the guardian angels mission, this gives you a vantage onto the truck. Take out the M4 and aim carefully, take your time, at the driver side windshield. Fire away. You can usually kill the guy before he takes off, if you don't then you probably will fail. Once he is dead get back on the bike and head straight down the ally toward the police bad pickup. This will lower your wanted level. You can keep going down the alley will it exists. 3> Two guys and a truck - the third mission was most difficult. There are two solutions. Ride up from the drivers side of the truck and launch a rocket from a distance away (easy) or ride in from the passenger side of the truck and fire with the Uzi. If you miss both follow the truck first. You can always come back for the running guy. 4> Boat guy. This is one of the vacationing guys, he is in a boat off the shore of an apartment complex. Ride the bike up the stairs of the apt building and across to the quad as near as you can to the indicator on the map. There will be a short wall blocking your view of the water and boat. Get off the bike, take out the M4 and walk to the wall. You may have to walk around to get a clear shot of the gut but he should go down in one shot. I do not know what happens if you miss. 5> Motorcycle madness. Get back on the bike and head for Washington area. Get used to firing straight ahead while on the bike. Be patient, you have several minutes if you have done things right. Come up behind the guy on the bike and shoot him. Mission accomplished. I managed the whole mission without getting a single star. So the police are not a real problem except when you are actually firing the weapon. EMAIL FROM: A. Raja On this mission instead of using the bike all the time,when you go to kill the scond bloke in the armored car,after you shoot him you should jump into his van then go and get the other two,if you come up on the left side of the bobcat and just ram them frist as you can they hould fly off and tip on to there side just keep on raming them,until they catch on fire and blow up,orjump out and shot them,the rest of the mission is a breeze and still got time to spare. ------------------------ P.4 - Phone Mission #4 (Check In at the Check Out) ------------------------ This phone mission takes place at the Esbobar International Airport. Once you go through the metal detector, all of your weapons will be taken out of your pockets and will be left outside. Pick up the phone inside and then take the mission. You need to grab the sniper rifle nearby and go near the metal detector and aim and zoom in (Sqaure to Zoom In, X to Zoom Out) and aim at the two men at the bottom of the escalator in front of the lady. Wait for the lady to end business with the men and then kill the one with the briefcase and then the one with the glasses. Hurry over there and pick up the briefcase, you need to drop it at the Ammu-Nation back in Downtown and that's a long ride. Get a fast car like the Sentinel XS or something like that and head over to the Ammu-Nation. There will be cops and gangs after you, so it will be a long and dangerous ride. $8000 if you pass this mission. EMAIL FROM: C. Gee There is a phone mission where you go to the Airport and become a sniper. There is a very easy way to complete this mission so you take virtually no damage without cheat codes. Take the helicopter located on top of the Vercetti house (formally Diaz's house) and fly to the airport. When facing the front of the airport entrance, you will see the pink marker in front of the phone on the right-hand side. To the left of the airport entrance, you'll see a small lot. Put the helicopter in the small lot so it's still running distance from the entrance. Once you've retrieved the package, hightail it out of the airport doors, grab your weapons (metal detector takes them and puts them outside for you) and dash to the helicopter. You will have 2 stars so the police will be waiting when you get outside. You will have plenty of time to get away. Fly the helicopter to the destination and drop off the package. EMAIL FROM: klwegener The first thing to do is to get a helicopter, from the Vercetti Estate (Diaz's old mansion) or from the Hyman Condo(must be purchased first) and fly it over next to the entrance of Escobar International Airport behind the billboard, surrounded by palm trees. Go inside the airport and go to the phone and someone will tell you to pick up the sniper rifle to your right. After that, you will be told to watch a woman on the balcony as she will come down and ask a man for the time. You are then told to kill him and take his briefcase, but do not kill the woman. There is also a distance meter on the top right of the screen that will show you how close you can get without blowing your cover. After you have killed him, obtained the briefcase as cops will be everywhere trying to stop you. Quikly run outside to the helicopter and fly over to Ammu-nation to deliver the briefcase. Mission accomplished. ------------------------ P.5 - Phone Mission #5 (Loose Ends) ------------------------ I like this mission, a lot of ground and gun action. Go to the phone in Little Havana behind the Cherry Popper to begin the mission. After the phone talk, head inside the compound behind the ice cream factory and you need to kill tons of men in suit. I would take one by one instead of all of them so that the mission is a little bit more easier. Some are hiding behind crates and ramps and watch out for the one on the catwalk on the building and the one on the billboard. When you get to the top of the building, there are more men hiding behind the two ramps, so, either throw a bomb or a grenade to kill them off and then grab the briefcase. Take the briefcase to the helipad in Escobar International Airport. EMAIL FROM: LL6869 The mission takes place behind the Cherry Poppers Ice Cream Company. You go to the phone in little Havanna and they'll tell you to go through the gate and kill everyone inside. Enter the gate and immediately blow up the car in front of you with the SPAS Shotgun. Go forward quickly and take out the few people in range of your SPAS immediately after passing the car. People should still be shooting at you but mostly missing. Stand there and take aim with the PSGI-1 Sniper Rifle and start picking off a whole lot of people. After finishing off everyone you can see head up using the Colt Python for speed. To the south is a stairwell up onto the roofs. Go up there and cap a few more people. I believe it is on the second roof there is a slanted ramp/vent thingie. Walk up onto it and use the sniper rifle to cap two more people standing on the roof next to the mounds of Ice Cream atop Cherry Poppers. Go up to the roof and cap one more person there. Finally go up to the last roof and use a flame thrower to toast the final group standing behind some ramps. A helicopter allows you to finish the mission by flying a briefcase to the Airport Helipad. I got no wanted stars whatsoever for doing this mission. One the rhythym of the mission is down it's very simple. There is a bullet proof vest and a heart in the zone of the mission in case you need to replenish health. EMAIL FROM: Rat Just now I compleated Phone Mission #5 (Loose Ends) in the fastest way ever! It's really simple! First grab you helicopter from Vercetti Estate, and fly down to the Phone. Land the Helicopter a bit away form the phone on the road. Answer the phone to engage the mission. Once the mission is on, grab the helicopter, and fly directly to the roof of the cherry popper. Get out and waste the guys guarding the package, grab the package, and get into the nearest helicopter and fly to the airport. DONE! This is a LOT easier than fighting tons of guys with MP5's at the base of the factory. ============================================================================== Vehicle List ============================================================================== Of course I have not yet to be far in the game, but what's more fun than jacking someone's car and take a wild ride in it? Come on, don't lie to me, you know you liked doing that! Anyway, below is the list of cars I've been cruising around in the game, I tried to give a good location for you to find it.

Hunter (Credits to Dr. Falken) Where? -Army base close to the airport Speed: -A little faster than other helicopters -- I find that I can catch up with any helicopter in the game on autopilot, and I can even keep up with the plane that flies the banner around Description: -Apache-like helicopter with nose gun turrets and missile launchers. Color: -Army green How's the ride? -I would consider this the most awesome vehicle in the game. It isn't bulletproof like the tank, but you can fly above traffic, and fire missiles or guns down at unfriendlies. Activate Guns: -Use the R1 button in the default config to fire the machine guns (but why?) Missiles: -Use the O button to fire missiles.

Landstalker -Where? -Ocean Beach, Washington Beach, Vice Point -Speed -2.5/5 -Description -Blazer -Color -Any -How's the ride? -I really don't like this SUV, bad cornering, can result in tumbling and ended up being up-side down.

Marquis -Where? -Cortez's yacht -Speed -2.5/5 -Description -Sailboat -Color -Any -How's the ride? -A big boat, take a while for it to stop and the cornering is not as good. Maverick -Where? -Buy the Hyman Condo first and go to the roof, surprise! -Speed -4/5 -Description -A regular helicopter you see out there. -Color -Any, mostly red -How's the ride? -One of the common helicopter you'll fly in before you might change your mind and fly the Hunter.

Mr. Whoopie -Where -Cherry Poppers, after you buy it. -Speed -3/5 -Description -It's an ice cream truck -Color -White with red or orange. -Hows The Ride? -Tips very easily with horrible cornering. Mule -Where? -Washington Beach, Vice Port -Speed -1.5/5 -Description -Moving truck -Color -Any -How's the ride? -Like any other moving trucks, slow and easily can be tipped over in turns. Oceanic -Where? -Ocean Beach -Speed -3/5 -Description -The body of the Oceanic resembles a '69 Lincoln Continental in a way. However, the color scheme is way off, and the Oceanic doesn't have suicide doors. Just the way the front and back is shaped. -Color -Any -How's the ride? -Slow accelerating, average speed. Has a good handbrake with it. Packer -Where? -Escobar International Airport -Speed -1.5/5 -Description -Semi w/ ramp -Color -Any -How's the ride? -I can't think...but I know its slow and the cornering is below average, but it has a ramp attached to the back. Try doing some insane jump on it with a fast car or a motorcycle. Patriot -Where? -Go to the film studios - need a little imagination and a bike to get in. Once in, there is a Patriot parked between the false fronts and the wall to the far left (if one was standing at the front gate with one's back to it). There is another vehicle parked in the Studio - a big rig with a ramp. Drive the big rig up to the front gate and then drive the Patriot up the ramp and over the gate. I know, a lot of work to get a Patriot, but still - I found it. (Credits to C. Boyd) -One can be found parked in the garage in Phil Cassidy's compound on the second island. (Credits to M. Sponholtz) -Speed -3.5/5 -Color -Blue, Army green -How's the ride? -Didn't ride in it much, just a wider version of the Jeep, so I don't think it doesn't tip much. PCJ-600 -Where? -Ocean Beach, Vice Point -100% Always -Near Colonel's Yacht -Across the street from the Greasy Chopper, under the Skumole Shack, there is a place that, if you crash through the window, you can get it. It's similar to how you get the Banshee at the dealership in GTA3. -Speed -4.5/5 -Description -Bigger than the Dirtbike -Color -Any -How's the ride? -Very fast! You can perform a "wheelie" while pressing back on the directional pad, but don't hold it there for a long time though. Never hit a curb or any object when at high speed, you don't want to see the result. -Neat Trick -If you move the analog stick a LITTLE bit forward so that he's tucked down, The bike goes even faster!! (Credits to ScottW) -Another Trick -If you find yourself heading straight at a Cheetah (or any sports car with a sloping nose) just pop a wheelie right before you hit it. You can do a jump using the car as a ramp. If you are going fast enough, you will get an insane jump good for about $50 or $60. (Credits to J. Wayne) Perennial -Where? -Little Havana -Speed -2/5 -Description -Station wagon -Color -Any -How's the ride? -It looks wobbly, but its an alright station wagon.

Pony -Where? -Washington Beach, Vice Port, Little Havana -Speed -2/5 -Description -Van with two windows -Color -Any -How's the ride? -Slow, not sure about the cornering. Rancher -Where? -Ocean Beach -Speed -3/5 -Description -Ford Bronco look-a-like -Color -Any -How's the ride? -One of the good SUVs to drive in. RC Bandit -Where? -Beside (North) of the dirt bike track in the starting island. (Credits to Jinxz) -Speed -1/5 -Description -Remote controlled race car -Color -Red -How's the ride? -Good in dirt tracks, probably not good for driving on road as you may get crushed by a car. RC Baron -Where? -On the top level of the Mall Parking compound which is just north of the mall. (Credits to Jinxz) -Speed -3.5/5 -Description -Remote controlled plane -Color -Red -How's the ride? -Get to learn how to fly one of these first before doing the checkpoint race.

Rio -Where? -Cortez's Yacht -Speed -2/5 -Description -A boat with two bottoms -Color -Any -How's the ride? -Its an alright boat in my opinion. Romero's Hearse -Where? -Very rare, no location. Try stealing it in one of the missions. -Speed -2.5/5 -Description -A funeral car -Color -Black -How's the ride? -I wish you can drop coffins from the rear, oh well. Rumpo -Where? -Little Haiti -Speed -2/5 -Description -Van with a little height to it -Color -Any -How's the ride? -The worstest van out of them all, below average speed.

You can do a jump using the car as a ramp. If you are going fast enough, you will get an insane jump good for about $50 or $60. (Credits to J. Wayne) Sandking -Where? -You get a SandKing after the third set completed from the AutoStore. -Speed -3.5/5 -Color -Any -Description -Big monster truck, runs over cars and has a big wing in the back -How's the ride? -Great for driving on sand, hint the name. Sea Sparrow -Where? -Vercetti estate after 80 hidden packages. -Speed -3/5 -Description -It's a Sparrow (bubble cockpit helicopter) with a wider base to land on water. -Color -Black/Grey -How's the ride? -It's heavier than any other helicopter, so it's a little slower, but it's fun to do a nose dive into the water and not die. -Trick -Press R1 to shoot (has some kind of a minigun attached to the Sea Sparrow) Securicar -Where? -Rare, Vice Port -Speed -2/5 -Description -Big, heavy armory car -Color -Dark -How's the ride? -It looks and act like an armory car, and it may look bulletproof, but its not. Sentinel -Where? -Ocean Beach -Speed -2.5/5 -Description -BMW 3-series (the 80's ones) -Color -Any -How's the ride? -It doesn't have a good whip like the XS when you do the handbrake, and a little bit slower than the XS. Sentinel XS -Where? -Washington Beach -Speed -4/5 -Description -Sentinel with a coolor body, grill on the back window -Color -Any -How's the ride? -Great car, good whip when you do the hand-brake. Skimmer -Where? -Prawn Island, after the 2nd Film mission -Speed -3.5/5 -Description -Looks like a Dodo and a Boat, a mixture of both -Color -Red, Green, Orange, Blue -How's the ride? -Poor take-off, hard to control plane. Spand Express -Where? -Ocean Beach -Speed -2/5 -Description -Box van/Moving van -Color -Any -How's the ride? -Very slow of course, very bad at turning when at high speed but there's really nothing inside the van. Sparrow -Where? -On the first island, The sparrow is toward the south side of the island near the strip club but it is on top of some apartments next to the pay n spray. -On the second island, The sparrow is on one of the big buildings by where the police maverick is at. It is behind the police maverick on a building that has multiple roofs. -you get it on a Film Studio Mission "Mugshots of Martha" -Speed -4/5 -Description -A bubble-type helicopter -Color -Silver -How's the ride? -Comfortable helicopter to fly in Speeder -Where? -? -Speed -3.5/5 -Description -Speedboat -Color -Any -How's the ride? -Is it just me? or is it really hard to control the boat? This boat isn't even a "Speeder" but it's alright. Squallo -Where? -Boatyard in Vice Port -Speed -5/5 -Description -Speedboat -Color -Any -How's the ride? -This should be named "Speeder" Stallion -Where? -First found it on Prawn Island -Speed -2.5/5 -Description -'60 Mustang with '70-'74 'Cuda hood -Color -Any -How's the ride? -Wow! this is not the car to pick when you want to go fast, because when you try to steer, the car will go out of control. Stinger -Where? -Ocean Beach -Speed -3.5/5 -Description -365 GTB Ferrari -Color -Any -How's the ride? -I was wrong, the Stinger isn't fast like the Cheetah, but its handling is up there. Stretch -Where? -In front of Ricardo Diaz's mansion -Speed -2.5/5 -Description -Limoussine -Color -Gray, White -How's the ride? -Have you ever been in a limousine before? Well, it has very bad cornering, obviously because its a long car. Taxi -Where? -Anywhere -Speed -3/5 -Description -A taxi cab -Color -Yellow -How's the ride? -Faster cab than the Kaufman, good whip too. Top Fun -Where? -Washington Beach, Vice Point, Escobar Airport -Speed -2.5/5 -Description -Van -Color -White w/ "Top Fun" on it -How's the ride? -Identical to the Gang Burrito, but a little bit better in cornering, where is the fun? open the door and see! Trashmaster -Where? -Junkyard in Little Haiti -Speed -1.5/5 -Description -Garbage truck -Color -Green -How's the ride? -Slow and smelly. Tropic -Where? -In the water next to Leaf Links Golf Club -Speed -2.5/5 -Description -One of the two large boats -Color -Any -How's the ride? -It's big, so it may take a while for it to turn. VCN Maverick -Where? -go to the second island when you are there on the second island head towards Prawn Island (where the fil studios are) but before you get on the bridge to go to Prawn Island look to your left and there should be a big building. if you fo to your first-person view and look at it there should be a sign on the building that has VCN on it. If you go behind the guard rail on the left side of the bridge there should be a door opened on the building(the VNC building). Enter it and it will take you to the top of the building. Go up the stars to the helipad and there it is. (Credits to DevilsMinion) -Speed -4/5 -Description -A News helicopter -Color -Blue/White -How's the ride? -Like the Maverick and the Police Maverick Virgo -Where? -Washington Beach -Speed -3.5/5 -Description -Lincoln Mark VII -Color -Any -How's the ride? -You may want to take it easy on the turn with this car because it is very unstable and can flip over. Voodoo -Where? -Cortez's III mission, Little Haiti -Speed -3/5 -Description -'60 or '69 Chevrolet Impala -Color -Brown -How's the ride? -This car got hydraulic! Use the right analog stick to get the bouncin' going! Walton -Where? -Little Havana -Speed -2.5/5 -Description -Farm wagon truck -Color -Any -How's the ride? -I expected this truck to be slow, but it has a near average speed, good handling. Washington -Where? -Vice Point -Speed -2.5/5 -Description -Bentley -Color -Any -How's the ride? -Near average speed, poor acceleration, below average cornering, I don't know what else to say. Yankee -Where? -Vice Port, Washington Beach -Speed -2/5 -Description -Moving truck -Color -Any -How's the ride? -A mixture of a Benson and a Boxville, but has a better handling than either one. Zebra Cab -Where? -the Zebra Cab is one of the rewards for completing the taxi missions. Not the drop off 100 passengers side missions, but after you buy the cab company, you do three missions for them. The Zebra cab is the cab you get to drive when all three missions are complete (Credits to Laura) -Speed -3/5 -Description -looks like a Cabbie but a darker yellow with black stripes. -Color -Black with yellow zebra stripes -How's the ride? -Same as Kaufman Cab ============================================================================== Weapon List ============================================================================== You can buy weapons at any Ammu-Nation shop you come up to, but it has a price for you to pay in order to get it. Oh, and big thanks to "viceious" for descriptions and toughness of each and every one of the weapons in the game! -Baseball Bat -Where? -behind the 1st hotel you stay at, in the alleys. (Credits to Alex Stein) -also a baseball bat behind 1130 (?) washington avenue, an apartment building you can buy. you must follow the ledge around back. -The baseball bat can also be obtained by the guys in black suits after you purchase Pole position. The people behind the counter at the enterance also have knives or machetes(honestly Im not sure which). -Description -Why have this when you have a nice nightstick. It's pretty similar, anyhow. Find one behind your Ocean View hotel. -Toughness -4/10. -Bomb Detonator -Where? -Where? It was in my inventory, I have no idea how it got there. I do see the "8-Ball's Bomb Shop" in Little Havana on the map, but I haven't got there yet. -They are located at Phil Cassidy's place. You can buy them for 5000 or 8000 ( I'm not sure). They are the last item on the left (You can buy a minigun, rocket launcher, and other goodies there too). -The bomb detonator can be bought for 1000 dollars at Phil's place. -Description -Possibly more useful than one would think. Like a grenade, but once you lob it it sits there until you hit the magic red button, simple enough. Worth experimenting with as they can be quite fun. They could even figure into mission strategy... -Toughness -7/10. -Brass Knuckles -Where? -behind the 1st hotel you stay at, in the alleys (Credits to Alex Stein) -you can find brass knuckles in the upstairs office at Kent Paul's hang out. Go behind the bar and go up the stairs. Kill the guard up there and take em. (Credits to M. LeBeau) -Description -A handy upgrade to your fists, found on the Malibu Club bouncers. Lets you punch a bit harder. -Toughness -2/10 -Camera -Description -You can only use this on the Martha's Mug Shot mission. Good only for damaging people's reputation. -Chainsaw -Where? -I don't think you can pick this weapon up anywhere, but Colonel Juan Cortez will give it to you on your first mission with him. -the chainsaw can be found in the apartments (in the 1st area) that are plain white with steps in the front that start at the middle and have 2 staircases that go to the top floors away from each other, like a V. it is found on the far right building in the top right apartment in the shower. the shower has blood all over it...(Credits to Alex Stein & Jamie Weir) -You can buy one in "Screw This" store in Little Havana and Bunch of Tools in Vice Point, and its price is $500 (Credits to SlapNutz and Novagraf) -Description -Get this puppy from Diaz or buy it for a hefty fee at Tooled Up. It can take off doors in a heartbeat and will shred cops and peds. You can barely walk (except like a gorilla) while carrying it, so perhaps it's better to just forego this one. 20 packages gets it for you at the Ocean View hotel. -Toughness -6/10. -Chromed Shotgun -Description -This vicious double-barrel shotgun boasts decent range, good spread, and quite high damage, it is a good all-rounder. Lock and load. -Toughness -7/10. -Colt 45 -Where? -Seen in the first weapon store, can be bought for $100 -you can also find the Colt 45 near the Colonel's place on the docks. If you have your back to the gates it is in front of you diagonally to the left (Credits to Reaper) -Description -Your default gun, the old standby. Takes a lot of rounds to destroy a car, weak on pedestrians too. At least you can run with it, and it is okay in a pinch. Just don't even try it with any situation but the least extreme. Using this wussy pistol on the FBI is about as smart as seeing if Vercetti can swim. -Toughness -3/10. -Colt M4 -Where? -there's an M4 in the little haiti by auntie poulet's house. (Credits to C. McMillan) -You can find a M-16 Assault Rifle in the "moon landing" set in the movie studio behind the lunar lander. It uses the same ammunition as the Ruger (Credits to D. Engelking) -Escobar International Airport, behind billboards in a sandy lot. -Description -Very nice, and quite easy to find in little Havana/Airport area (between some shack houses and behind a wall off the main drag near the airport) Seems a lot like the Ruger, but has a good firing rate or so it seems. Very good all around gun. Looks like an M16. -Toughness -Possible 8/10. -Colt Python -Where? -from ENTRANCE of the well stacked pizza in LITTLE HAITI turn left and go to the stop light. From the stop light turn right and you should see a crushed car on the right. Stop at the crushed car and turn into a small alley on your left and there should be your colt python -There’s a way you can get the Python pistol before it’s available to be bought at the Ammunation on the west island. You go into the Ammunation that is in the north part of the west island and pull a gun on the guy behind the counter (preferably a shotgun). Wait until he draws his gun then shoot him. Jump behind the counter and pick up his Python. You only get 6 rounds with it, but it is one of the most powerful guns in the game, and you can do this over and over. With the Python it’s "one shot one kill". By the way, you need to wait until he draws his gun or he won’t drop one. Also, be sure and have armor on because those Python shots do a lot of damage and sometimes he’ll get a round off before you do since you have to wait for him to draw. (Credits to Andrew) -Description -Mwahahahah. Not a nice gun. You can find it in Little Haiti behind some houses. This is a nasty little six-shooter which possesses the unique ability to drop anyone in one shot. Blam. Down. It's not all that quick, but more than quick enough, especially compared to the traditional shotgun. Best for killing groups of people, not cars. Get 30 packages to get it at your hotel. -Toughness -8/10. -Fist -Where? -What do you mean where? -Good for -Nothing! But you can bust out some Kung-Fu which is amusing. -Toughness -1/10. -Flamethrower -Where? -The Flamethrower can be found in vice port just east of 8-ball's bomb shop (Credits to C. McMillan) -there is also one in one of the pools of a neighbor of Diaz. It's a star-shaped pool I think. (Credits to A. Humble) -Description -A lot of fun, and easy enough to find in Viceport (I think). When there are lots of people around, a quick sweep (it guzzles ammo at a disturbing speed) will light up tons of peds, making it the ultimate short-range mass killer. It goes awhile before reloads, making you near invincible. If you are surrounded, hold fire and do a 360, and you will no longer be threatened. Instead, your enemies will be racing around screaming their heads off. However, cops and gangsters will continue to shoot at you for a few seconds once you ignite them (before they crumple into black stick figures), so be warned. Also, if you touch any burning carcasses or walk into your own jet of flame, you too will join the barbeque. -Toughness -This gun is so fun that it earns a 9/10, even though it cannot shoot that far. For extra fun, hop onto a car and do a drive-by flaming. -Golf Club -Where? -One can be found in Leaf Links Golf Club -"Screw This" Store in Little Havana (Credits to Alex Stein) -Description -Thieve one at Leaf Links from an unsuspecting golfer. It has a good long reach on it and can deal a beating. Plus it's so funny. FORE! -Toughness -5/10. -Grenade -Where? -Grenades can be found in the basketball court behind the hospital in Little Havana (Credits to klwegener) -Grenades can be bought at the ammunation in the mall. -Description -Steal a set at the basketball courts in little Havana; they're like really weak RPG rounds, but invaluable for tossing them down onto cops below if you're on a building. Also highly inaccurate, so be careful they clear the edge of any buildings or you will redecorate the ground. Messes up cars like no other. For extra fun, get on the helipad of the cop station in Downtown and try to chuck them through the window of the office building full of people. -Toughness -6/10. -Hammer -Description -Excellent for bashing up cars, but not much reach. Also at BOT (Bunch of Tools). -Toughness -3/10. -Ingram Mac 10 -Where? -Also seen in the first weapon store as well, $200 -Description -A nice, cheap, fast SMG found at Ammunation for a paltry $200. Great noise from it, brings back memories of Max Payne. Highly effective in my mind, cheap to own and operate, keeps the cops at bay well. Pretty weak for anything else except close quarters firefights and confrontations. It will save your butt in Guardian Angels. -Toughness -6/10. -Katana -Where? -Go to that Diaz dudes mansion. Come out of the entrance and turn left. Look to your left and you'll soon see an arch in a wall, this leads to a house with a little garage on its left. Go in that garage, the katana is in there. (Credits to Cactus11) -The katana is in the Tarbush Café (the Starbucks clone) in a back office, in the North Point Mall. (Credits to a lot of people, thanks) -Description -Pull a Yan-Can-Cook with this happy sword and take off some heads, find one at the Tarbrush Cafe or at Tooled up. It's also in the garage area at one of the Starfish island houses. This weapon earns you a wanted level quickly, though. -Toughness -6/10. -Knife -Where? -A switchblade knife can be found on the walkway on the bridge near diaz's mansion. (Credits to J. Van Riper) -Description -It's a Knife! Get one at BOT but not really that great. -Toughness -3/10. -Machete -Where? -Located on the bridge between Vice City and Starfish Island on the southern sidewalk (under the archway) (Credits to Jinxz) -Description -Now yer talkin! Good reach, very vicious. Get it at BOT. -Toughness -5/10. -Meat Cleaver -Description -Like any other knife, quite nasty. Get it from the psycho chefs or go buy it at BOT. -You can find a meat cleaver at the Pizza place on the first island, its right next to the bike. -Toughness -4/10. -MiniGun -Description -It's been a long time comin'. I believe this also packs 500 rounds, which are deployed at an alarming rate. Think the helicopter scene in the Matrix. The minigun can obliterate cars faster than any other gun, liquifies herds of people, and is the ultimate ground weapon as it can be used at closer range unlike explosives. It has a big con though, it cannot fire up or down, just in a straight line. It also cannot auto-target. You simply squeeze the trigger and move the stick as if you're watering a rosebush. When used right, it shines, despite its horrible impracticality. -Toughness -Still, the grin it will put on your face earns it a 9.5/10. -M60 -Description -It holds 100 rounds (I think) of joy. This heavy-duty, military issue gunner can mangle cars, bring down heli's, shred waves of pedestrians, and keep most breeds of cop away. Its downside is that it sights manually, but this lets you target most anything high or low with accuracy. If you have the cojones, nab one at the guard tower in the military base. Very quick, though not as quick as some. It is good all-round. -You can buy a M60 at Phil's place for $8000. -Toughness -9/10. -MP5 -Description -Despite having never used this gun directly before, I have been generously sprayed with MP5's by the FBI. Suffice it to say that I was riddled with bullets and killed very quickly---this is the nastiest SMG in the game and a must have. And yes, there is a catch; you must kill an FBI agent to steal it, it's the only way! Which means 5 stars!! Not good. Well worth it though, you will be deadly on your PCJ when you have an MP5, it is the international standard for antiterrorist weaponry. -You can also buy a MP5 from the north ammunation on the second island for $3000. Army guys in tanks/barracks OL drop this too(not the ones at Baxtar's Army base) -Toughness -9/10. -Molotov Cocktail -Where? -Downtown, inside Tacopalyse near Hyman Condo -Description -Get 'em for free at Tacopalpyse (sp?) near the Hyman Condo. They're mean and great for killing lots of peds when they're in groups. One can even destroy tanks with them. Be careful as it is tough to lob them accurately and easy to light yourself on fire. The cops will love you if you use these. -Toughness -7/10 since they're hilarious. -Nightstick -Where? -Who usually have one? that's right! Drag a cop out of the car or beat one up on the street and grab the nightstick off one. -Description -Thieve one from a cop, it's great for beating up peds and generally doesn't earn you a wanted level. A must-have. You look super cool with one if you have the matching cop outfit you unlock in the Cop Land mission. -Toughness -5/10. -PSGI -Where? -The PSGI is on top of the roof in Little Havana across from the Rockstar logo billboard. (Credits to J. Otto) -The PSGI can also be bought in the Ammunation on northern part of second island for $7000. -Description -Ho, ho, ho. Steal this friend by getting up onto the building near Umberto's Cafe that has the Kaufman Cabs sign on it. This is a semiautomatic sniper rifle, which means no reload time. With skill, you can take out two tires before the victim in his car knows what hit him. You can pop off shots continously with excellent accuracy, and the included laser-sight makes life easier as well. It lets you know if you are really sighted onto the victim. The ultimate sniper rifle. -Toughness -9/10. -Rocket Launcher -Where? -The rocket launcher is in a hotel called the hooker hotel. It is near the escobar interntional airport. (Credits to A. Adams) -Description -This grim gadget is the last word in killing. Nothing survives this weapon except the tank; since the days of Doom it has been the ultimate gun. Pick one up for free at the swimming pool of the hotel near the airport, replete with 4 free rounds. It is invaluable for any mission when a car must be destroyed fast, or a crowd of people must go down. The RPG is a luxury for missions and is fun in any case, as the police are helpless against it. Helicopters go down in one shot, boats get lit up and smoked, even the Army can be kept at bay, though tanks shrug off the rockets. -Toughness -10/10, a keeper. -Ruger -Where? -Jump lowest west roof of the El Swanko Casa, and from there jump onto a back roof to aquire it. R1 is like the M-16 in GTA3 (thanks to Michael Z.) -You can buy a ruger from either ammunation in the first island. -Description -One of the first Assault Rifles, a somewhat slow but nonetheless nasty gun. Quite accurate and kills pedestrians super fast, though you must be able to manually target them quickly. -Toughness -7/10. -Screwdriver -Description -Extremely weak, but great for puncturing people. Pick one up at Bunch of Tools. Cheap but not that effective. -Toughness -2/10. -Shotgun -Where? -Its at the top of the parking lot of the mall in Ocean Beach (Washington Mall), (thanks to u2asian) -As many people know, but you get 5 shotgun shells whenever you enter a cop car for the first time plus a shotgun. -A shotgun can be found in Washington Beach near a bench on the nothern grassy part near a hotel. (Credits to J. Van Riper) -Sniper Rifle -Where? -One can be found in the bush maze at Diaz's mansion. (Credits to J. Van Riper) -In order to obtain the sniper rifle on the roof of Eswanko Casa, go up the front stairs of the house and go to the right side. Jump straight on to the roof and make a left. walk all the way to the edge and you'll see the roof with the sniper rifle on it a bit forward and to your left. To get it, get a running start and jump diagonally on to it. (Credits to Vlyblfreak) -Description -A standard, manual, one-shot, lock and load. Steal it from Diaz's hedge maze. It is slow as heck, but highly accurate. It gets the job done, but wait until you get the PSG-1. -Toughness -7/10. -Spaz Shotgun -Where? -Escobar Intl. Airport, behind the large "SURF" billboard -Spaz shotgun is also bought from the north ammunation on second island for $5000. -Description -Or as I call it, The Punisher. This is a ferocious gun, fulfilling the sick fantasy of a fully automatic shotgun. Count to three, and this gun will have already unleashed its 7 round clip. Like the Jackhammer in Max Payne, it can dispatch multiple enemies in one shot, one after the other, and destroy cars very, very quickly. Reloads fast too, and has good range and accuracy. A fantastic gun, never leave home without it. Get one behind the huge billboard just off the road circling the airport, the one that's in a big grassy median between two roads. -Toughness -10/10. -Stubby Shotgun -Where? -The bartender at the Malibu has a stubby(or maybe it is chromed, I really didnt know they were two different guns but you listed them as different) shotgun BEFORE you buy it. After you buy it she will never attack you with it and will never pull it out so you cant get it. It can also be bought at the ammunation in the mall. -Description -Found way in the corner of the junkyard in Little Haiti. It is a short range, high damage gun. The spray on it is huge, so can kill whole groups in one blast. -Toughness -7/10. -Tear Gas -Where? -Behind Washington Beach police station you get 4 on pickup. Gernade area of effect with no damage done to cars but people are hurt. (credits to Michael Z.) -Description -Snag these pups at the police station. They're not quite as good for cold-hearted killing, but can truly incapacitate whole crowds of victims, making them cough and buckle over. If you are being pursued by the Army, better start chucking these. A last-ditch weapon. -Toughness -5/10. Tec-9 -Where? -Vice Point, behind stucco house in the dead end circle. -Description -I have yet to use this gun, it's likely better than the Mac 10 or maybe the Uzi. Supposedly it is better at close range, it is reputed to be very strong but not all that accurate. Find one at Leaf Links. -Toughness -7?/10. -Uzi -Where? -An Uzi can be found on the porch of the one of the houses on Prawn Island north of the studio, I think the one in the center covered with graffiti. (Credits to DAltman) -Description -Haven't used this much and it feels a whole lot like the Mac 10, perhaps the Mac-10 is faster, at least it seems so. It's not as cheap as a Mac 10 so it is definitely stronger. You can find one across the road from the Greasy Chopper Downtown or behind the Pay/Spray. -Toughness -7/10. ============================================================================== Side Missions ============================================================================== I've been in several missions where you have to press R3 to start it, but I'm more focused into doing the main part of the game, I will get to those when I feel like taking a break from the main part of the game. ------------------------ 6.1 - Pizza Delivery ------------------------ -Where? -You can find the Pizza moped over near the Malibu Club in the middle of the island. -How? -Simply jump onto the Pizza Boy moped and the guy will have you deliver some pizzas. After you complete your first mission, go back to the Well-Stacked Pizza place to get more orders, one more yellow dot will appear on your radar screen. You only get very little money for delivering pizza, so, it's not really much. -Why Should I? -when you finish level 10 of the pizzaboy mission, your max health increases to 150 (Credits to gaiden_000) -under the pizza delivery mission, you should list that you get $5000 for finishing along with $10 per delivery, which means a total of $5500 plus the 150 health max you already have listed. (Credits to ReTom7) -Buttons -Press R2 then circle to throw the pizza to the right and L2 then circle to the left. ------------------------ 6.2 - Ambulance ------------------------ -Where? -Ocean View Hospital (?) -How? - -Why Should I? -Once you complete the Ambulance missions you will never get tired while running around. (Credits to Daldd357) -Best Hospital? -In my opinion, the best Hospital to work from is the Shady Palms one found at the top end of the East Island(the one you start the game on). Why? All your patients spawn really close to the hospital and most of the time a lot of them appear on the beach which is very easy to reach from the hospital and is within easy access. The furthest ones tend to appear near Well Stacked Pizza and the Prawn Island bridge which really isn't that far. As for strategies, try and pick those in groups, closest to you first. You'll get a lot more time, which will be needed in order to drive carefully around to pick people further afield. Good luck, and stay away from the dirtbike track, your ambulance can and will tip over wasting 20 min work if you are not careful. (Credits to M. Sherer) ------------------------ 6.3 - Taxi ------------------------ -Where? -Anywhere -How? -Jack one and press R3 to start the Taxi mission -Why Should I? -Thought I'd help ya out. If you do 100 taxi mission (not in a row, just in your entire game's history) then every taxi gets hydraulics which doesn't seem like a big deal, but it's not actually hydraulics. Once you unlock it, when you're driving in the cabs and with some speed (I'm pretty sure it won't work at a standstill or at a crawl) you can press the L3 button and the cabs jump up in the air using hydraulics! They jump around 10 feet high and are now the best car for getting chased in because you can head off into oncoming traffic with a cop right behind you and then just jump over the oncoming cars and let the cop plough into them! I'd say the taxi jumps around 10 feet high? not enough to jump over the bigger trucks, but anything from a van and down can be jumped. Oh? it's also cool because if you go over a bridge and jump at the top you actually get enough distance and height for it to count as a stunt bonus. You can easily make 1000s just driving around town and hopping when you'll be at a point to get some decent height. One more cool thing is that cab is sweet for making sure you get those unique jumps, at full speed with a well times hop, the cab can fly further than the PCJ or any other vehicle. The only place where you'd want a PCJ for the unique stunt jumps is when there is lots of tight navigation to get to them. With the cab and just jumping at the apogee of a bridge I've actually gone over 160 feet, you make around $70 every time you get it right (Credits to L. Kwechansky) ------------------------ 6.4 - Mr. Whoopie ------------------------ -Where? -Little Havana -How? -You need to purchase the ice cream factory first. Then you drive around selling the "ice cream" from the Mr Whoopie. This one is a bear to do since if you stop for too long, the cops catch on and chase you. Make sure you know where all the police bribes are before you start this one. I'm not exactly sure at what point I passed this mission. I sold about 175 total, and 68 straight in one shot. When completed, you've completed all the ice cream factory assets mission and you can sit back and collect up to $3000 a day from the factory. (Credits to Laura) ------------------------ 6.5 - Police (Vigilante) ------------------------ -Where? -Any police station -How? -Why should I? -If you do 12 levels of police missions, your max armor becomes 150. (Credits to George) ------------------------ 6.6 - Fire Truck (?) ------------------------ -Where? -In Downtown, next to the Police Department -How? -The first mission is simple, put out a car. Next, there will be people in the car that you will have to chase and put out. As you progress, more vehicles and more people will have to be put out to complete the mission level. I had a lot of trouble with the GTA3 firetruck mission, but this one seemed a lot easier. I got Level 15 my first try. Also, if you need a little cash, the firetruck mission is the way to go, because after my mission failed, I earned a total of over $60,000! (Credits to Omega) -Why Should I? -If you do all the firetruck missions, you become fireproof. (Credits to George) ------------------------ 6.7 - Top Fun (RC vehicles) ------------------------ RC Bandit -Location -Beach, near the dirt bike track. -Reward -$100 (I think) -How? -Jack the Top Fun van and the mission will begin. Drive your RC car through checkpoints and be the first to finish (out of 3 other cars). Drive two laps around. Very easy mission, learn the turns of the track and there should be no problem passing first or second time. RC Baron -Location -Topfun van on the top level of the 'North Point Shopping Mall' Car Park, if its not there go down a few levels then back up - it'll probably appear then. -Reward -$100 -How? -Race a Radio Controlled Bi-plane against 3 others around about 15 checkpoints spanning the whole of the island. Takes a bit of practice to master the plane - if you clip a palm tree, for instance, you'll spin and hit the deck, but you can just take off again... O detonates your plane if you fall too far behind... or just get get bored! Took me 3 attempts, lasts about 2:45 to do. Tally Ho! ------------------------ 6.8 - Red Stallion ------------------------ -Where? -Top of the parking garage (one with the plants growing on the side) -Reward -$100 -How? -Jack the red Stallion in the center of the garage and the mission starts automatically. Go through 5 checkpoints without hitting a single parking cone. Extremely easy mission. (Note: I flew the helicopter onto the parking garage and the only vehicle that spawned on top was the red Stallion. So I didn't have to drive around other cars while trying not to hit the cones and drive through the checkpoints. This may affect the difficulty of someone who enters the parking garage from the bottom.) ------------------------ 6.9 - Sanchez ------------------------ -Where? -The dirt bike track near Hyman Stadium. -Reward -$200 -How? -Hop onto the Sanchez (next to an SUV) and the mission begins. You must drive through checkpoints in the track and go 2 laps. Towards the end of the track there are red explosive barrels so avoid hitting those. After the first lap it starts to rain, which may affect the handling of the Sanchez. And also 2 other guys on bikes come after you while racing. ------------------------ 6.10 - Landstalker ------------------------ -Where? -The dirt bike track near Hyman Stadium. -Reward -$100 -How? -Hop into the Landstalker (next to the Sanchez) and mission begins. Drive through checkpoints on the dirt bike track. Complete 2 laps and receive award. (*Hint: Drive very slowly and carefully otherwise you?l roll the car guaranteed. This mission has no time limit so take as much time as you need.) ------------------------ 6.11 - Sparrow ------------------------ Little Haiti -Where? -Top of Riverside Pavillion NE of Kaufmann Cabs. Unless you use a chopper, you can access it only by ramps from the north. -What? -Fly a Sparrow around Little Haiti picking up checkpoints. -Reward -$100 Downtown -Where? -Building east of Downtown Police Station (VCN?) -What? -Fly a Sparrow around Downtown picking up checkpoints. -Reward -$100 Ocean City -Where -Building east across the street from the underground plaza with the wide stairs at both ends(where the police bribe is) -What -Fly around Ocean Beach picking up checkpoints -Reward -$100 Vice Point -Where -Center of courtyard east of Mercades' swank house (two blocks north of pizza shop on east island) -What -Same as the other three. Go figure. -Reward -$100 ============================================================================== Secrets ============================================================================== ------------------------ 7.0 - Hunter (Apache) ------------------------ Big credits goes to Dr. Falken: For either way to get the hunter, you will need a sniper rifle, or an assault rifle, with as much firepower as you can get. I used a CodeBreaker code for infinite ammunition (GameFaqs still hasn't updated the game part of the site to provide a link to the Codebreaker codes yet, but they do exist if you go to CodeBreaker.com) This is the easy way to get the helicopter (I recommend anything you can get to increase health - I've never tried this without the infinite health code from the codebreaker, and it may not be possible to do): Drive to the extreme east side of the airport, where the army base is. Break the barricade and IMMEDIATELY go north (left). You will see stairs. Get out and climb up these stairs and RUN towards the building's catwalk (the building that you're in). Go through the catwalk and down the stairs on the other side of the fence (that has the Rhino in it). You want to be able to reach the high guard tower (or in the area) Once you are close to the guard tower, run to the obstacle course, then all the way across the obstacle course, and when you are at the other side, make a left and go through the gate. From this point forward it's identical to the other way to get the Hunter, so I'll write that one out: Once all the bridges are open, earn as much cash as you can until you can buy the condo close to the stadium (14,000) (again, a codebreaker code will help here, and GTA: Vice city doesn't consider that a cheat). Once you get the condo, go in the door marked "Roof Access". Once you're on the roof, you should be able to walk forwards and see a helicopter on the pad. If you can't, then go off the roof (back down again), and drive around a bit (to the Pay and Spray and back is what I do), then go back and try it again. One time it took me three tries to get the Maverick. Once you have the Maverick, head up and over towards the airport. The Hunter will still be at the military base, but you'll be able to fly over all the stuff you would normally have had to do. You can also get straight to the Hunter by flying over the water en route to the airport -- you'll see the military base on the right. Land the Maverick fairly close to the Hunter (but not too close, for reasons that will soon become apparent). Immediately run under the nearest covered tent. NOTE: If you try to take the Hunter now, you won't be able to spin the rotors all the way before they shoot it down. This part requires timing and a lot of luck (but I have stolen the Hunter 5 times in a row this way): While under a covered area (similar to a hanger), the soldiers will try to shoot you. They come in waves, and the trick here will be to time the waves so that there is a gap in the waves when you are under the camoflauge tent nearest to the Hunter. Kneel and shoot all soldiers that you can see, until no more are firing at you. Take them out in packs, as they tend to congregate. A grenade or rocket launcher won't work for most of them because they'll be on the other side of the fence from you. MAKE SURE that you are not between the soldiers and the hunter, and also that the soldiers are not between you and the hunter. You will want to try to set it so that all gunfights are going parallel to the Hunter, so that no stray shot hits the Hunter (or very little -- it's not bulletproof) Also take out any police helicopters that may come your way by aiming for the connection between the helicopter and hte main rotor - that's the weakest link of the police chopper. Once nothing is firing at you, you will have about 20 seconds to get to and steal the hunter. RUN LIKE HELL towards the hunter, and hit and hold down the X button, and the back button on the analog stick so that you clear the military base. Fly low until you're clear of the angry soldiers at the military base (about 2 seconds or so), then get as high as you can to avoid the police boats that will try to shoot you down. Fly over the water to your condo. (Whew! -- that's the tough part) Now, land the Hunter on the helipad. If another Maverick is there, land somewhere in the circle with the H. If a police chopper decided to follow you, GET OFF THE HELIPAD and go onto the roof proper away from the Hunter (so no stray fire hits the Hunter), then take out the police chopper. If you need to, move the Maverick off the helipad, then move the Hunter so as much of it is on the helipad as possible (this ensures that it will be there when you get back from the next step) Finally, steal an FBI car (or whatever police level is after you) and drive it to the local pay N spray - if necessary steal another car just to get it in the pay-n-spray. Once you're there, wait until the stars have totally shut off (not flashing anymore), then return to the condo. Go back up on the roof, and now you have a Hunter, and no stars. Unfortunately, I haven't found a garage big enough to store a helicopter, so even if you save the game and return and see the hunter, it will not be there when you load the game. If you hear of *any* place to go in order to act as a garage, but for helicopters, that would be very cool to find. That would presumably also repair the damage on the hunter as well (it will take some damage during all this). Anyway, I hope this helps. The hunter is a lot of fun to play with -- shooting down the Dodo planes, other helicopters, and going on vigilante missions are all a lot cooler with this bird. ---------How to beat vigilante missions in the easiest possible way Steal the Hunter, and start your Vigilante mission 'Brown Thunder' next to the air port. Here's the big piece of advice: NEVER, I REPEAT, NEVER USE THE CHAIN GUN. Why? Several reasons: 1)The Hunter will have to be somewhat low to use the chain gun, making it vulnerable to return fire from criminals and police 2)If you fly REALLY low to use that chain gun, then parts of the exploding cars can fly off and hit your rotor, causing damage. 3)While the Hunter can take 2 rocket hits, more than any other vehicle in the game, before exploding, it IS NOT BULLET PROOF,NOR DAMAGE PROOF. AT ALL. Even if you collect all 100 packages, it will NOT be bullet proof! T.Menosky wrote that his Hunter showed no visible signs of damage. Well, you simply did not get hit enough. I've hit 6 obstacles and been shot over 30 times, and there was no smoke. So what do you do? Simple. Use rockets. Rockets can be fired relatively quick, and once you get the hang of it, strafing patterns with rockets can take out whole columns of vehicles at a time. Just make sure you pull the nose back up before you get too close to an object. If police get on you, DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT! You're in a friggin Apache for god's sake! Feel free to waste the police, and any choppers they send after you. By the way, the police choppers are no threat what-so-ever. Just don't hover for more than 10 seconds, and you'll be fine. Be sure to shoot down the Dodo trailing the banner,too. Muahaha. Using rockets, I was able to get to level 50 before I got bored. Have fun! ---------GREAT Hunter Tip! (Thanks to T. Omdal) Hi, I got some tips for your FAQ regarding the Hunter and vigilante mode, especially if you want to rake in big bucks. I am currently at vigilante mission level 200, getting over 2.000.000 per level, and earned over 110.000.000 total, more money than I will ever need in the game. First, make sure you have been through the story missions (credits have rolled). A Hunter will then always spawn at the Air Force base. Use the Sunshine Autos as your "HQ". Make sure you put some vigilante vehicles (standard cop car is enough) in the garages. Also make sure you have the cop outfit. Save in the Sunshine Autos when all is ready. Drive to the Air Force base in any vehicle, crash through the gate. The soldiers will not act against you because of the cop outfit. Get to the Hunter (other end of base). Activate vigilante mode with the R3 button, and start hunting bandits. Now here are the real tips. Do NOT ever use the rockets to take out vehicles. They damage is too widespread and you could easily take out pedestrians or even cops at the same time. Use the minigun, it is far more accurate, and if you are close enough to the bandit vehicles, you will take them out only (the minigun sort of auto aims). If you use the minigun, you will very seldom get wanted stars. If you get one wanted star, just lay off the hunting till it is gone. If you get two wanted stars or more, land beside the Sunshine Autos, run inside and grab a car, drive right down to the Spray N Go, wanted stars are gone, drive back to the Hunter and continue. Leaving the Hunter will start the 1 minute limit to get back into a vigilante vehicle. You can enter and leave the vigilante vehicles you parked in any of the garages if you need extended time. Sometimes (actually it happened quite often for me), the Hunter will disappear if you leave it. If this happens, take a vigilante vehicle from your garages (the 1 minute time limit will stop), drive back to the Air Force base, run to the Hunter (you will make it in about 30 seconds), and voila, you are back in business with a new Hunter. If your Hunter gets damage and starts smoking (it is close to death), just get yourself to the Air Force base, land besides another Hunter (one will always spawn), and pick up the fresh one with no damage. Again, the soldiers will not bother you if you have the cop outfit, and no wanted stars of course. The vigilante missions and the Hunter has a few weird things that you can use to your advantage. If they are bugs or not, I do not know. From vigilante level 12 and outwards, 2 bandit vehicles will ALWAYS spawn at the exact same spot. 1 bandit vehicle will also spawn at a random point somewhere on the map. The weird thing is that this last vehicle will usually spawn at an "impossible" location, and therefore self-destruct and disappear, leaving only the 2 first bandit vehicles for you to take out. This can be very useful if you can manage to get the 2 first bandit vehicles to spawn at a convenient spot. The best spot for them to spawn is inside the airport field. Here you will not find any pedestrians, very few other vehicles, and best of all, no cops (vehicle or human) will enter here. Here is how to get the 2 bandit vehicles to spawn inside the airport field from level 12. Destroy bandits until you reach level 11. Now you will need to exploit another one of the weird things with the Hunter. If your Hunter is outside the land perimeter, for example, your Hunter is over water on the far west side of the airport and Air Force base area, the vigilante missions will freeze (the time will freeze and no new mission will appear) till you enter land perimeter again. When you reach vigilante level 11, you have to wait till the bandit cars drive around outside the airport. Sometimes this will never happen, in which case you will need to retry the whole thing. Position your Hunter to the far west, over water, between the airport and the Air Force base. There is a road close to the water there. Wait till the bandit vehicles drive past you and take them out with your minigun. Now the missions will freeze, since you are outside land perimeter (most probably a bug). Move your Hunter south, till you are in the southwest corner of the map, outside the airfield. Now, move inside the airfield, and the 2 next bandit vehicles that will spawn, will ALWAYS, repeat ALWAYS, be inside the airfield, as this is a large area, and they will always spawn rather close. If you understood all of this, you will have a perfect arrangement. The 2 bandit vehicles will always spawn at the exact same spot, the third vehicle usually destroys itself. You can just position your Hunter close to the 2 bandit vehicles and take them out with your minigun as they spawn. Sometimes the third vehicle spawns correctly, just hunt it down and take it out. I managed to do 100 vigilante levels in under an hour this way. And you will rake in money fast, I promise! ---------Another way to get the Hunter EMAIL FROM: Viper 5888 This is by far the easiest way to get the Hunter from the military base. First off go to Diaz's Mansion(Vercetti Estate depending on if you've taken him out or not.). Behind the mansion you will find the sea sparrow in the center of the back yard right in front of the dock. Take the sea sparrow and head West- slightly NorthWest. Fly over Little Haiti and when you see the air base, line up straight with the side. Come up to the base, but hover just offshore, so you can see the base, but no army men have spawned yet. Line the sea sparrow up with the chain fence between the Hunter and the tents in the center. Fly in low and keep a slow yet steady pace. Generally the army guys will spawn to the right and left of the fence. Use the Sea Sparrows gun to shoot them down.(Note: If you fly in low enough (Just above the wall you flew in over)the gun should auto target the men on the ground.) Once you have all or most of the army guys down fly over to the left of the hunter(The side closest to you) and land so the Sparrow is in direct line of sight from where the soldiers were, this will protect from fire for the time being. Run to the Hunter and hold down "X" and press the left analog stick all the way back. The Hunter will take off in about 4 seconds and will go up and backwards over the airbase wall. Once you are over the water press "L2" to turn to the left and head towards the mainland for some fun. ---------Indestructable Hunter? EMAIL FROM: T. Menosky I think I stumbled across an indestructable Hunter. I was cruising down Ocean Beach, when I passed the big house with the Helipad next to where you do Cortez' missions. Well, I should mention that I have all 100 hidden packages so the Hunter was unlocked at the military base. Anyway, there was a Hunter on the helipad of this house, so I nabbed it to have some fun. I easily passed level 12 of the vigilante mission in the Hunter, and decided to keep going. Well, after about 2 hours of doing the same vigilante mission, I am now on level 53, making over 100k per level, and after several hard crashes and multiple shots taken from police, both on the ground and in the air, my chopper doesn't show any signs of being hit at all. I don't know if this was caused by gaining the 150 body armor at level 12 or what, but the last 2 hours have netted me well over 1mil in reward money. ---------Cant' escape from those army? EMAIL FROM: ITAGP Apologies if you have gotten this suggestion before, but after spending literally all night last night trying to get the Hunter I believe this is the easiest method not involving the pussy sucker cop-out method of enabling a cheat of some sort. You take a helo and approach the army base from the south. When you see the Hunter it is important to land RIGHT NEXT to it. The key is that you will be facing north upon landing and can hop out of the left side of your chopper and quickly hop into the left door of the Hunter (which is parked facing south). This works about 75% of the time if you land properly. You are only on the ground for a split second and will be standing between the helos (this blocks the view of most of the potential soldier boys - unless some are standing just south of you they will not see you and you can hop into the Hunter.) I hope you can use this info and that it will give an option to those desiring use of the awe-inspiring destructive power I have come to love so much over the past day or so. ---------Wes has submitted some new Hunter locations Direction 1: Starting from the front of Ocean View Hotel, facing the street, go right. Follow this road until you see a fountain on your right, look too your left and it should be there. *If it's not there, then save/load a couple of times until it is. Also, you still must obtain all 100 hidden packages for it to appear. ---------Want a different strategy to get the Hunter? EMAIL FROM: Dystopia If you go to the police station in Washington (first island, about 3 blocks south of the Malibu Club) walk in, turn left to the locker room and get the uniform there (you must beat the Copland mission first however for the uniform to be there) then go into the army base, everything will be peachy...sometimes if you stay longer than 5 mins they get suspicious..and sometimes they take the liberty of killing you. But it only takes about 1 min to get to the hunter the long way anyhow. ---------Want to save it? EMAIL FROM: B. Holcomb Just got ahold of it last night... You can store it in a garage... the one at Hyman Condo. If you land it in the street next to the entrance (where all the garages are) you can push it into that first garage. It "rolls" just like any other car (forward and back) and you can rotate it by either pushing on the front or back. It's not even really that hard to, just a pain in the butt sometimes. Push it in straight then rotate it, it fits in diagonally. --------Here's another way to save it! well, i know that you can't save the apache on the roof of the hyman condo, but i found a location where you can park it and save, and the next time you load it will still be there. okay, there's a helipad that's all the way south on the eastern island (it's close to the pole position club and one of the hideouts on the south. look for a building that's on the shoreline and there should be a helipad there. i parked my apache there and saved my game at the nearest hideout, and when i loaded the game the next day it was still sitting there. i'm not sure if it will repair the damages like garages do, but i think there's a way to fix that. i don't ever cheat, but my friend told me that whenever you're in any vehicle, entering the health cheat will fix all damages, and it goes the same for the apache. (Credits to PrAeToRiAn_8472) --------How to make sure that you have a saved Hunter Thanks to PattonIsGod1944 I've seen all kinds of weird and questionable ways to save the Hunter. Well, I have the one strategy that WORKS. I've received emails from 30+ people telling me how to do this, so I'll put it up here for you. Once you steal the Hunter, fly back to your Mansion. The tricky part is next. See that Maverick sitting on your helipad? Well, you're gonna have to push it off the Helipad completely. Why would you do that? Well, I'll try to explain it. See, the game saved set vehicles as the spot they're supposed to spawn in, not what type they actually are. Take the PCJ-600 side-mission for example. If you push the PCJ out of the way, then take another bike to that spot and get on, it starts the mission any way! What does this prove? It proves that the game knows that SOMETHING is supposed to be there, but not what specific type. Okay, back to the guide. What you need to do next is gently push the Maverick off the helipad. To do this, hover next to it, and push the nose of your Hunter forward a bit. If you are lined up right, and execute the move right, you can keep tapping X to move forward while pushing th Maverick. If you don't push it all the way, don't worry. It might take a little longer, but you can make passes at it and push it a little bit at a time. Once the Maverick falls off the Helipad, and off the roof COMPLETELY, land the Hunter at the helipad. Now run inside your room and save the game. Congratulations! The game will now spawn a Hunter at that spot for the rest of the game. As far as the game is concerned, it's okay as long as something is in that spot. Have fun tearing up the city! ------------------------ 7.1 - Bulletproof Admiral ------------------------ Credits to Yee Loera I think I've found myself an extremely strong Admiral (I think its a bullet proof car). I've been whacking it with various melee weapons, shooting it, and even ramming other vehicles without even a dent on it! I picked it up from the Guardian Angels misson. Apparently it was the car that Diaz and his boys pulled up in. I grossly failed the mission and decided to drive back to a save pt. All the Hatians' vehicles were locked but Diaz was no where in sight and I took off in his car. I did a phone mission afterwards (Waste the Wife) and rammed the hell out of the target car and 50 other cars along the way. No damage on my Admiral. ------------------------ 7.2 - Bulletproof Sabre Turbo ------------------------ Credits to Techno In "The Driver" if you wait at the Malibu club until the race ends you will see the Sabre crash into the wall with no driver in it. Push it into one of your garages and you have a Bullet Proof Sabre Turbo. Note: when you have pushed it to your garage get out of the car and push it the rest of the way or else the door will close and the car will disapear. ------------------------ 7.3 - Get in Leaf Links early ------------------------ Credits to Ross To get to Leaf Links early and with weapons: Drive down the road leading to Leaf Links that is just north of the jewelery store. Stop where the first gate is. The black fence section to the right of it isn't solid. You can jump right through it. To exit without getting wasted, get a caddy (which will probably not be available, but if you're lucky you'll see someone driving one and steal it). Drive over a ramp that is located to the right of the building through which you are supposed to exit. Park the caddy on a steep hill close to the fence. Jump onto the caddy roof and from there jump over the fence. This may take a few tries, but is is possible. Leave Leaf Links safely! (Credits to Eticket109) 'To exit without getting wasted, get a caddy (which will probably not be available, but if you're lucky you'll see someone driving one and steal it). Drive over a ramp that is located to the right of the building through which you are supposed to exit. Park the caddy on a steep hill close to the fence. Jump onto the caddy roof and from there jump over the fence. This may take a few tries, but is is possible.' There are two much easier methods to use to leave than this. One: Start beating on random golfers til an ambulance shows up. (Don't ask me how they drove in.) Then jack the ambulance and climb it to jump the fence. The manicial driving of the paramedics makes this a bit difficult to accomplish though as they often end up in a water hazard and drown. If anything though, that's just more fun to watch. Two: There is a walking bridge between the north and south sections of Leafs Links that goes over the road leading past the clubhouse. Simply jump over the side of the bridge, jack a car and drive wherever. EMAIL FROM: Joe W. Grab a Sanchez or a PCJ-600 and drive to the golf cart bridge that crosses over the road. Drive up the grass and pop off of the bushes to land on the bridge(might take a few tries. When you want to leave, just pop a wheelie and aim for a corner of the same bridge to hop over it. EMAIL FROM: RCH2003 Leave your Ocean View Hotel heading north. Follow this street all the way and curve left along with it so that you cross over a small bridge ahead of you. Take a left after you cross the bridge and then take a right on the next street you come to. Ahead of you should be the large bridge. At the last point before you actually get on the bridge, jump the curb to the right. You should be facing north and be right beside a small fence blocking you from falling in the water. Floor it heading north and it will look like you will jump in the water, but you don't. I've lost 1 or 2 life a couple of times from being in the water for a second, but usually you won't get hurt. I've made the jump with an Infernus,Oceanic, and on a moped once, so I don't think the car matters. You land right on the course. ------------------------ 7.4 - Costumes ------------------------ Thanks to Deymus from the TheGamingRevolution.com for all of the costumes' locations.

First off you need to get the tank at the airbase . Go to the airbase either with a car, truck or helicopter. drive your vehicle through the front gate, or land your chopper in close proximity to the tank. Get out of your vehicle or chopper and run to the tank, but don't pay attention to anything around you. Take the tank out the entrance of the airbase and start running over cars. Once the cops are on to you they will run into your tank and blow up, eventually increasing your wanted lever. Once you have six stars media will begin to pay attention. Just make sure you keep moving, and for every 100 seconds you stay alive and don't get busted your media leve will rise higher and higher. It's not too hard to stay alive as long as you stay in your tank, they can take a massive beating. Just keep driving cause if you stop you'll get busted. EMAIL FROM Strynki First of all, you will need at least a Shotgun, a Uzi, and a M-16 (Colt-Comando, for the one that played Max Payne, or M4 or you can take the Ruger if you want). The Shotgun and the M-16 are easely finded in a little room at the botom of Diaz Mansion (**Spoiler** Your House, dah !). Anyway, you just need a lot of bullet whatever gun you use. Go to the Pharmacy in Little Haiti (Ryton Aid) it's North of the Pay'N Spray in Little Haiti. (Put a Motorcycle in front of the Pay'n Spray). Do a "hold-up" and get 3 stars, kill the guy. Wait in the Pharmacy, sometimes cops will come and you get to kill them, to pass the time, do headshot. Once you get 7 stars, the party's starting. Tank should be coming, trying to enter the Pharmacy and kill you... **sigh**army guys are stupid** After 3 or 4 Tanks in front of the Pharmacy , all other cops will go away and you will be all alone with those tanxk, go out and kill the driver with you M-16, its easy the is a little window in the front. If the yare blocking teh way, jump on one. Done, you can now safely enterin a Tank and have fun whit that tank and get media attention. I got World Event after15 minutes... and if you want to save you ass, just jump on the bike you putted in front of the Pay'n Spray. Long to explain, but really easy to do. ------------------------ 7.6 - Easy way to get a Rhino ------------------------ Thanks to Jatooley This is how I got a rhino and it is really simple. It is possible to do at any point of the game, but it is easier after you have completed "Keep Your Friends Close." After you complete this mission, you always have a health and armor to the right of the main entry. However, you can accomplish this before defeating the final mission by just running down to the basement. Here is the technique. Run outside your Vicetti mansion and just start shooting people. Once you get the cops attention, shoot them until you get three stars. Run back into your mansion and just start picking off the cops with your Ruger. You can almost always shoot them before they shoot you, so you can usually take three or four out and not take any damage. Do this until you have SIX Stars. Then run into the room to the left of the stairs as you are facing outside. Fill up on health and armor and run outside. Amazingly, there is no one outside the front entrance. Run out to the street until you see a tank that has stopped. Pop the guy that comes out TWICE,. If you shoot him once, he will get up and kill you or bust you. Jump into the van and do one of the following. 1. Hightail it to the Heyman Condo. The tanks will be on your tail, but it should be easy to get to the first garage. Jump out of the tank and run for it. You will more than likely be killed, but just leave the tank in the garage. You will now have a rhino of your own. 2. Head to your car dealership. Before you attempt this method, be sure you have another car in one of the garages. Park the tank in one garage, pull your car out of the other and drive it into the pay and spray. ------------------------ Strategy For Getting The Law Enforcement Vehicles (FBI Rancher/Tank/Barracks OL/SWAT Van/Police Cheetah) ------------------------ Thanks to RiDgE for the strategy! This strategy is for those people like me who enjoy collecting rare or hard-to-get vehicles like the FBI Rancher. To do this you will need the Hyman Condo hideout near the Stadium located Downtown on the west island. This is probably the best spot to attempt stealing these vehicles, thanks to the features found in the Hyman Condo. You'll make use of its roof access, police bribe, save point, and many garages. Before trying this leave the hideout and go left down the street until you get to the pizza place, there should be an alley right next to it containing body armor and a hidden FBI Washington. Grab the Washington and the armor and go back to your hideout. On the way back try to hit cops in the streets or anything to get your wanted level up. Once you arrive at your hideout stand at the entrance and shoot as many people as you can. If an unwanted car manages to get into your hideout, simply go into the door labeled "Roof Access", then go back down and the car should be gone. Go back to the entrance and keep shooting people until your wanted level rises. Anytime an unwanted vehicle enters the alley go up to the roof and back down to get rid of it. Sometimes there may be a cop still in the hideout but just shoot him. If your health starts to drop simply run into the save point and go to "Cancel", this will refill your health to 100, but not your armor. When you reach the desired wanted level, wait until one and only one of the vehicle you want enters the hideout. Grab the police bribe in the hideout to stop any unwanted extras from coming in, and wait until the people jump out and quickly kill the ones on the driver side. Jump into the vehicle and drive it right into a garage, get out, and save as quickly as you can. At three stars you can try for the unmarked police Cheetah used by the undercover cops with Uzis, at four stars you can steal a SWAT Van, at five you can get the special suped-up, four-dour FBI version of the Rancher, and at six you can try to get the Barracks OL or the Tank. It took many tries to develop this strategy, and I find it's the easiest thanks to the advantages of the Hyman Condo. **TIPS** - Make sure you have space in a garage for the vehicle, I had only seconds to get my FBI Rancher into a garage and it happened to be at it's two-car limit and I was killed before I could get to another. Try emptying the four-car garage and use that, its got a bigger door and it's easier to get a car in in a pinch. If your lucky another law enforcement vehicle might get lured in along with the one your stealing, this means a chance of getting two different vehicles in one try. - If you use the four-car garage, you should later move your car to a smaller garage due to the "car eating" glitch the four-car garage seems to have. The bigger vehicles like the Tank and Barracks OL can be saved in the two-car Vercetti Estate garage. You wouldn't want to go through all that to get a rare vehicle and load your game later to find it mysteriously disappeared. - At three stars if you spend too much time in the hideout without moving to the roof the SWAT members may drop from the chopper and present a problem. - Have patience, sometimes some officers might not disappear when you go to the roof and back or too many vehicles will come in at once, there's a long list of what could go wrong, but keep at it and you'll nab the vehicle your after ------------------------ 7.8 - Stealing a Rhino ------------------------ Thanks to rmv2498 I have discovered a very good (though not foolproof) way to steal Rhinos, instead of using a cheat to spawn them, or having to get 90 secret packages. So you want a Rhino? The North Side Mall is the place to start this. There is an AmmuNation inside the mall, so having weapons ahead of time is not necessary. Recommended loadout is either a Python or the Stubby Shotgun (available in the mall Ammunation); these are used just as a knockdown weapon when taking the tank itself. Beyond that, something with lots of ammo for general mayhem. The submachinegun in the mall Ammunation works fine. Each attempt usually ran me about $5000, but I was not being particularly thrifty; one purchase of the Stubby Shotgun, lots of submachine gun ammo, and armor, all from the AmmuNation. To begin the mayhem, walk over to the Tooled Up (next to the AmmuNation), and hold it up. Hold it up until you have three stars. (This is the fastest way to start, and offsets your weapons cost...) Then head back out of the store and wait for the police to begin attacking you. Return fire, taking them out as fast as you can. If necessary, you can duck back into the AmmuNation and refresh your armor (time stops while purchasing, conveniently enough). Keep this up until you have 6 stars. This is why you are building up in the mall. The only thing that gets sent after you while in the mall is foot police. Once you have all six stars, time to leave the mall. Refresh your armor if necessary and leave by the exit nearest the AmmuNation. You will be outside on the ledge near the bridge. Jump over the railing. Run left a bit and jump onto the raised ledge, where the hole in the concrete wall is. Avoid picking up the bribe. For once, you *want* to be at six stars. Once you are on the ledge, pick up the drug and go through the hole in the wall, onto the bridge. Run south, looking for a tank. After a block or so, if one hasn't already, you should see one appear. Run up to it. Most of the time, it will turn towards you, and the two soldiers inside will get out. This is why you have your heavy gun. They are very dangerous if they get to shoot at you. Hit one, then run around the tank and hit the other. Jump into the tank. Immediately reverse and fire the cannon. This shakes off anyone who is right next to the tank and will usually keep you from getting busted right away. After that, it's all fun. Now, you can't Paint'n'Spray a tank, but you can park nearby and drive a car in, lose the warrants, then put the tank in a garage peacefully. But really, that isn't much fun. My advice is drive to the Vercetti Estate, put tank 1 in the garage, grab the drug there, and take another tank. The only garages I have found that can fit tanks are the Vercetti Estate, Sunshine Autos, and the Hyman Condos. I also discovered that you should not, under any circumstances, put *2* tanks in the Vercetti garage. You can't get in them, and you can't maneuver them at all. After that, I didn't try putting two in either of the others; but I suspect the first garage of Hyman Condos could hold two, maybe more. But really, one in each garage is plenty... The two big advantages I have found of doing it this way are a) it is trivial to get six stars in the mall, since you don't have any of the really nasty enemies to worry about, and b) the exit being so near a drug makes the actual taking of a tank pretty simple. And once you are in the tank, there isn't too much to worry about. ============================================================================== Businesses ============================================================================== You will begin to buy some businesses throughout the vast land of Vice City, here are some of the businesses that you may purchase. Remember, you can begin buying it after you complete the "Shakedown" mission. ------------------------ 8.1 - Sunshine Autos ------------------------ -Where? -Little Havana, near the Airport -Cost -$50,000 -Daily Revenue -$9,000 -What to do? -After you buy sunshine autos, which is near the airport, there are two great things you can do. 1. Get the business earning you money, how do you do this? steal cars. If you go down by the garages and make a right, look on the wall by the entrance and you will see a list, complete the list and sunshine autos makes $1600 a day, another list will form, complete that and you will be making $4000 a day, complete the third list and you will be bringing in $6500, complete the fourth list and you get $9000 a day! and as an added bonus, you get cars for completing the lists, the cars will be put on display in the showroom. Complete first list you get a Deluxo it looks like a souped up Blista Compact, handles nice and its a pretty fast car. Complete the second list and you get a Sabre Turbo, Complete the third list and you get the Sand King, a big 4x4 truck, it handles pretty well and has pretty good speed. Complete the fourth list and you get the hotring racer, the car you use in the hotring racing in the stadium. Also, when you buy sunshine autos you can take part in illegal street racing. You will find a list of where the races are down by the garages also on the east end. And you should find yourself on this side of town needing a quick paint job to get the cops off your tail, you also have a full service paint and spray. (Credits to Halfback720) ------------------------ 8.2 - Kaufman Cab ------------------------ -Where? -In Little Haiti, near Phil Cassidy's place -Cost? -$40,000 -Daily Revenue -$5,000 -Cab Missions *-V.I.P. -You have to pick up the V.I.P. in Starfish Island and take him to the airport, but you have 1 minute to get from Kaufman to Starfish Island. If you succeed, some rude guy from the other cab company took your fare and take him. WHAT?! THAT'S MY FARE YOU....YOU...oooh! You need to go after him and damage his car enough to be able to get the V.I.P. out of the other cab and into yours. Take him to the airport. *Friendly Rivalry -The other cab company is stealing your fares all across Vice City and you need to stop them. Get in the Kaufman Cab and bust down the three other cabs (or Taxies) by either doing a drive-by or demolition derby style. *Cabmageddon -This is the fun part. Mercedes wants to be picked up, so head over there near the airport and then get in the pink aura and sound the horn. Where is she? hey? what's going on?! at least 7 or 8 other cabs will be pulling in and form a line. This is going to get nasty. I hope you have that drive-by type of gun with you. Just avoid them and keep shooting at them because all of the cabs will be banging and hitting and damaging each other. Once all of the cabs are gone, the last one...the Zebra Cab will be coming out and run you down. Here's the easy part, take out a sniper rifle and blast his head off through the window. EMAIL FROM: Jesse *If you want to show that last cab who runs Vice City, grab the bazooka in the pool at the Hooker Hotel (bright pink building), it's right where you are supposed to meet "Mercedes." *Before you drive into the marker, get out of your car and have a look around. If you are facing towards 8 Balls autoshop, go forward and look left u will see a large ship. Drive into the marker and quikly drive forward to the edge near the large ship but do not go over! Quickly get out of your car and you will see a ledge next to a bunch of boxes. Jump onto the ledge and walk behind the boxes and wait for the time to run out. When the leader taxi comes out, go back near where the marker was, and shoot him with a rocket launcher as he charges toward you. Mission over. (Credits to R. Galovan) ------------------------ 8.3 - The Malibu Club ------------------------ -Where? -Right in the middle of the first island -Cost -$120,000 -Daily Revenue -$10,000 -Club Missions *-No Escape? -Break Cam out of prison... just waltz on into the police station, nab a keycard hidden in what looked like a dispatch room, and break let Cam out. Bring armor and a bunch of firepower... I liked the Magnum for this one myself. Lose the heat and get him back to the club. *When you break Cam out of Jail, and the 4 starts come up, run. Ignore Cam and simply run out of the police department, TAPPING X all the time (this keep yourself running without getting tired for a very, very long time). Once out of the police HQ, run past them, still tapping X, and run south towards the nearest pay n' spray, not drive, run and don't stop tapping X. Take all the alley ways you can. Once near the pay n' spray, jack the nearest car and quickly drive into the pay n' spray. The 4 stars should be gone now and if you ran out fast enough, Cam should still be at the police HQ. Now, simply drive back and pick up cam, and deliver him to his house without any fuss. Basically, the trick here, is that the police ignore Cam no matter what and you can go as far away as you want from Cam without penalty, despite what the message says ( "Stay with your posee" or something). *-The Shootist -Go to an ammunation and meet Phil. If I remember correctly, all you have to do is score over 60 points on the 3-part shooting range. Not really that hard at all. *-The Driver -Real pain in the butt to win, racing a Sentinel against a Sabre, not to mention the cops on your butt all the way around. I found it easiest to stay just behind the Sabre for the first couple of checkpoints until you find an opportunity to run him into a head-on with a cop car. This mission will score you Hilary. *-Basically, I found using the Sentinel required way to much skill and effort. So what I did was run to BJ's autos, which I completed, and get the Hotring Racer. Then, I went and parked it down the street from the Malibu so that the mission kickoff wouldn't clear it from memory. I usually leave it by the police station, along the race route. I trigger the mission, and get ready. I poke Hilary's car full of holes on my way there, get out, and take the Hotring Racer instead of thatgod-forsaken sentinel. I dust him and usually finish the race around 1:45. Done and done. (Credits to spoofyster) *-Before you enter "The Malibu Club" enter the "slower game play" cheat code - triangle, up, right, down, square, R2, R1. When the race starts the game play will be slow. This way you will have time to calculate your moves, avoid hitting stuff, and avoid the cops. However you should still take caution on sharp turns (especially if the "better driving skills" code is activated) so that you don't flip your wheels. With this cheat code you will no longer be at a disadvantage in versusing a "Sabre" with a "Sentinel" and what was once a hard race will be a breeze. (Credits to FeMaFaTaLe) *-The Job -Everyone gets in a cab and heads to the bank to make a withdrawal. A magnum is a good companion for this mission too. First you change into some nifty Friday the 13th (part 3 +) outfits. Take Cam upstairs to the vault, peg a couple of overzealous uzi-packing security guards on the way, find the manager, bring him back to the vault, and wait for all hell to break loose. Once you get back to the ground floor, the SWAT team drops in from the roof, and you're wanted. Take out the SWAT and go outside. There's more of em waiting at the bottom of the stairs and... oh my god! They killed Hilary! You bastards!! Cam dies somewhere along the way too, that's ok. Stay behind the tree and take out the SWAT gingerly, if you make a break for a vehicle, they'll take it apart with automatic weapons. If you make a run for it, you'll leave Phil behind, and he has to survive. Make it back to base for a $50,000 bonus. And there's more... now the Malibu will generate $10,000 daily, and you'll find those nifty Bank Job threads in the back room. Buying up the rest of the town should be a breeze after this. *First you take the cab and drive to the bank. You get out and let Hillary drive the car. Then, put your costumes on and go in side. Go up the stairs and find your way to the vault. Pop any heads that get in the way with your magnum. Then, take the bank manager to the vault and leave him. Go to check on Phil. Then, when the SWAT team shows up, run like hell upstairs. Wait a few seconds and try to help a little and shoot down on the bottom floor. Then, when Phil says thats it, head back down and run to the blip. Those fools shot Hillary! Those fools need to die! Then, shoot all the SWAT team guys waiting by the stairs. THen run and get a car that isnt a cop car. Take it to the pay n spray that is right up the street. Get your car sprayed and wait for the stars to stop blinking. Then, drive out, pick up Phil, drive back to the base and get 50 grand. (Credits to Austin) ------------------------ 8.4 - Cherry Popper ------------------------ -Where? -Right across from the bridge from Starfish Island in Little Havana, you can't miss it. -Cost? -$20,000 -Daily Revenue -$3,000 -What to do? -Deliver ice cream (or drugs?) to people. You need to sell it to 50 (not 100) people in order to own the place and get $3,000 per day. Go out to Ocean Beach where there are many people out there and no gang member. Cop may appear here and there, just keep an eye on the Wanted Level meter. -Tip -When you get in the ice cream truck dont start the mission until you get to the pay & spray at the east island. start the mission and hang around the pay and spray, whenever you get 1 or 2 stars just jump in the pay and spray and wait for the star to go away, sell some more, lots of people tend to walk around there. and you only need to beat 50 to own the assets. makes everythin much easier. (Credits to BBoyApex) ------------------------ 8.5 - Film Studio ------------------------ -Where? -Prawn Island -Cost? -$60,000 -Daily Revenue -$7,000 -Studio Missions *-Recruitment Driver -Tommy went in and told Steve that he owns the studio now and he thinks that everything in the studio doesn't look real. Anyway, you need to find Candy Suxxx and Mercedes. Jack a car and go to where the pink blip is on the radar to pick up Candy first. A car pulls up and several members are armed and the car speed off. Just run over the gang members and the one in the car. Return to where Candy is and then pick her up. Now, you got to go pick Mercedes up in the pizza place. Drive them both back to the studio and then drop them off. *-Dildo Dodo -The Skimmer may be hard to fly, but the mission is simple. You have 6 destination marks to hit and when you hit one, flyers will pour out from the plane and it won't stop until you hit the end checkpoint (red) from one of the starting checkpoints you hit (blue). *-Martha's Mugshot -Take the Sparrow outside of the Film Studio and follow Candy to the hotel, but you need to park the helicopter behind the hotel with the pink blip on the radar. Go up the steps to the point where you are suppose to take pictures of Strub and Candy together. -*Follow your radar to the left, and get in your Sparrow. Follow Candy and Congressman Shrub all the way to his condo, and instead of going inside the hotel across from the condo, just land your Sparrow on the flat surface above it, you wont have to worry about the FBI then, just take your pictures, and get back to the studio. -*ok, you still follow them in the sparrow and when they get to the building and its time to take pictures DONT GO TO THE SIDE OF THE HOTEL AND WALK IN, instead land your sparrow on a piece of the building that protrudes from the front (just above the doors) there is just enough room for you to land it, this spot is just high enough for you to see martha and candy and take pictures, as soon as your done taking the pics, fly back to the film studios (you might have to bail above the film studios, theres lots of bullets comin atcha (Credits to SaiberDood) *-G-Spotlight -Wow, this is hard, being on the PCJ-600 and jumping from rooftop to rooftop for one spotlight. You have to complete this mission before 7:00. -*You need to own Hyman condo for this. Once you get to the top of the first building. Jump off with the bike, then goto the condo and get the helicopter. Just land in each of the pink markers until you get to the end. Land on the final building with the spotlight, jump out and walk to the final pink marker. Once inside, he will adjust the spotlight. Mission done, you now have access to the buildings so you can do some of the unique jumps later and you will now earn money for the film studio. (Credits to E. Walden) -*First get a helicopter and fly to the film studio. After the cut scene you will need to get on the bike and i will tell you where you need to go. Get off the bike and get in the helicopter and fly to the building. Land the helicopter and steal a bike. Take the bike into the building and go up the elevator to the pink dot showing you were to go. Break the window glass and land on the first building. Get off the bike and face the building you jumped from. Jump off the building and run back to the helicopter and you can now fly to each marker and as long as you fly near it you will advance to the next marker till you land on the roof and break to the light cut scene.

Get up on the ship and stand on the pink aura to get the info from the man on the ship, and you automatically gets two Wanted Level stars for that and there will be some shooting. Exit the boatyard and head back to the PrintWorks. *-Hit the Courier In this mission, you need to go see the courier back in the dock. Head back over there and wait for the leader's helicopter to land and when she gets to her vehicle. When she is enar the car, start shooting all of the ladies, including the snipers on the roof. Kill the courier and then grab the plate off from her and then head back to the PrintWorks. *-On the Hit the Courier mission for the PrintWorks, I just waited for the courier to come to the drop off point. You can find it by following her once and failing the mission. Once you know where it is, take a couple of cars and block off each entrance. Right before she arrives, a carload of chicks with guns show up. Use the flamethrower to kill them through the walls, then kill the courier, grab the package, and hightail it to the printshop. (Credits to O. Dustin) ------------------------ 8.8 - Boatyard ------------------------ -Where? -In Vice Port -Cost? -$10,000 -Daily Revenue -$2,000 -What to do? -There is only one mission to do here and that is "Checkpoint Charlie". You have to ride in either one of the two boats, the Squallo or the Cuban Jetmax, I prefer the Squallo because the control is better. Simply go through all of the checkpoints to the end. The only hardest part is the ramps, as you need to ease the speed on those three checkpoints in the air. After you complete the first mission, try the second challenge, same course, but the air gets a little foggy. By the time you get to the 4th challenge, its the foggiest one and the hardest to see through, use the radar for this one. ============================================================================== Hideouts ============================================================================== Here it is! Would you like to live somewhere else and not in the hotel? would you like your own place? and save your cars? I don't know if you can save boats or helicopters too. If you buy the Hyman Condo, you get a free helicopter (I think) on the top of your building on the helipad. Anyway, here is the list of places you can buy, enjoy! 1102 Washington Street Where? -The westernmost road in Washington Beach area, look around there. Cost? -$3,000 Any good? -No garages at all. Really bland building thats near Ken Rosengburg. Just a save point really. -------------- 3321 Vice Point Where? -Get to the northernmost street in Vice Point. Cost? -$2,500 Any good? -Also, not that good. No garage but may be a useful location to you depending on how you play the game. -------------- Elswanko Casa Where? -Its located behind the Pay 'n Spray in Vice Point Cost? -$8,000 Any good? -Very nice. A 1 car garage and a nice building (house). Also, a sniper rifle on the roof for a good vantage point. Dont ask me how to reach the roof.. Heli? -------------- -Hyman Condo Where? -Right in front of the Hyman Stadium. Press START and look on the map, see where the stadium is? now see that dark gray (alley path) that goes diagonal? the Hyman Condo is there. Cost? -$14,000 Any good? -Very well the best of all...Beats the Car Showroom because it has a much better location. Also spawns a Maverick 90% of the time on roof...Very good place to get away from cops...Only takes a few steps to get up to the roof -------------- -Links View Apartment Where? -If you take the long middle bridge from Little Haiti, go pass the golf course and then take the first left up ahead. Turn left again and you'll find the apartment. Cost? -$6,000 Any good? -Again, just another place to save...It has one garage. Its across from the North Point Mall, which could help you remind you of where it is. -------------- Ocean Heights Where? -Go to very south of Ocean Beach, it is the building across from the Pole Position club. Cost? -$7,000 Any good? -Another save point -------------- -Skumole Shack Where? -If you have the map that comes with the game, look for "Greasy Chopper" in Downtown and go there. Go pass Greasy Chopper to the east and around the bend is a stairway going up to the roof, take it and you'll find the shack. Cost? -$1,000 Any good? -This is not only a good place to snipe, but a GREAT place. Snipe range is awesome since its not to high or low, and if a heli comes, run in the shack, save, and repeat. Also, a BUNCH of Motorcycles around this area. ============================================================================== Radio Stations ============================================================================== Here is the list of radio stations you can listen to in your car. Some car have just one station and some have at least 5, so its kind of random I guess.

Finance building ============================================================================== Unique Jumps ============================================================================== Thanks goes out to AggroSk8er for permission to use his Unique Jumps section from his guide and Wayne Taylor for sending the unique jump locations to him. Unique Jumps There are 36 Unique Jumps in Vice City. These are sometimes hidden, and sometimes blatant. By hitting a certain jump and landing in the correct spot (sometimes), you complete the jump. These are shown in cinematic view and are very cool. You get incriments of $100 for every jump. Unless specified otherwise, every jump will be hit best on a PCJ-600 motorcycle. Let's start with the huge alley south of the Malibu Club and north of your starting hotel. There are lots of jumps here. 1. There's a wooden plank set up against a wall along the road. Rev up from the grass and hit it. The jump is before the alley, just to note. 2. As you head down the alley, you'll see a flight of stairs (the ones you used in 'Guardian Angels'. Hit it and fly onto the next roof. 3. Same alley, different staircase. These are the ones Lance used in 'Guardian Angels'. Rev up the beach wall and hit the staircase, landing on the police station's roof. 4. Farther down the alley is another flight of stairs, hit them and land on the ajacent roof. 5. Even farther down is a little wooden box, get a ton of speed, and hit it facing slightly left. Land in the middle of the alley to get credit; DO NOT LAND ON THE ROOF! That's not the jump. 6. Still farther down, and facing north, is another box. Get some speed and hit this one, landing on the roof across the road. Now, we go to the Malibu Club, where a few jumps reside, or at least, I can give good directions to the stuff from here. 7. To the west of the entrance is large cement barrier, hit this, and go across the river. 8. Facing south from the same spot, rev up and go down the grassy area, where you'll see another cement barrier, hit this, and go over the bridge. 9. Go across the bridge you just jumped, all the way to the Starfish Island bridge. Turn around, get some speed, and hit the little dirt mound, and go over the river. 10. Now, turn around from number 9, and you'll see yet another cement barrier. Hit this, and fly over the river. 11. Now, we go over to the construction site. There's one that has some partial windows, and one that doesn't. Go to the one that doesn't, all the way up to the third level. Get a decent amount of speed as you go somewhat north off the edge of the rail. These ones have some hard locations to describe, but I'll try. They are all in the Ocean Beach area. 12. There's a large car park west of your starting hotel. It looks like a capital T. Go up to the top and hit the ramp, facing south. 13. There's a building with white stilts and a staircase leading to a useless door in Ocean Beach. It's right next to the south Pay-and-Spray. Anyway, go down the alley and hit the stairs facing south. Fly over and land on the adjacent building. 14. Now, if you're on the same roof where you landed, hit the staircase in front of you. Now you should see three vents. Two face south, one faces east. Hit the left vent facing south and go over the ajacent building for this jump. 15. Find the Washington Mall car park, which I believe is near the police station in Washington Beach. Go up to the top, and face east, towards the shotgun pick up. If you had enough speed, you'll fly over to the next building. 16. Hopefully, you're still on the roof that you landed on in jump 15. You'll see a bunch of vents, but rev up and hit the one on the far left, clearing the next building. 17. If you have completed the first set of Colonel Cortez missions, you can access the northernmost docks. Go in, and turn left at the first split in the docks. Get a ton of speed and hit the jump. 18. Continuing your steam from jump 17, hit the next jump on the docks. Slam on your REGULAR BRAKE (not the handbreak) or else you'll end up in the water. If you're paranoid, bail as you land, then take a boat in to shore. Hooray, halfway through. There is only one jump on Starfish Island: 19. Coming from the east, make the first right and head to the inter- section in the center. Stop, look right, and you'll see an alley. Go through it and turn right. You should see a large orange house. Go around it and find a small staircase. Go as far back as you can from it and use it as a ramp. There's jump 19. There is also only one on Prawn Island: 20. On the far west part of the island, turn right to see a long white staircase, hit this, hit another ramp, and you'll be on the correct roof. Look right to see a long ramp, rev up and hit this to fly over the film studio doors and complete the jump. Now, we go to Escobar International Airport, which has eight jumps, all of which are in the main airport...place. It's the largest one, and it contains the main airport terminal (the one with a sloping roof). 21. As you go into the airport, you'll see a large "VC Surf 3D" bilboard. Heading south, it has a ramp. Hit this and land on top of the main terminal building. 22. Inside the main section, along the side and facing east, is a mobile staircase (okay, there are a lot, but this is the right one). Hit it, and land in the street or on the VC Transport building. 23. Further south is a large lift ramp, it's pretty hard to miss. Hit the left one and land in the street. 24. There's another set of mobile stairs that is facing west and leading over the easternmost loading bridge (the long white things =P). Sail over it and try not to face plant into the plane. 25. There's another loading bridge west of the one you just jumped. Do the same thing, still heading west. 26. Now turn around after this jump to seee yet another set of mobile stairs facing east over the same loading bridge. You guessed it; jump it. 27. Farther west from the loading bridges is a large red radar. Facing east of this is a mobile staircase. Hit it (wow), and sail over the low part of the radar building. 28. Get a ton of speed facing west and hit a yellow and black striped runway marker. Use it to jump the radar building. Face a bit to the right as you hit it so you only jump the low part. You'll never make it over the radar. Now, to Little Haiti and Havana, where four jumps reside. 29. East of Kaufman Cabs are a bunch of containers and a floating police bribe. Head around the road left to see the ramp you need to hit to grab it. Get some speed and go over. This is incredibly easy, but try to go over the bilboards as to avoid some head trauma. 30. Now south of Kaufman cabs is a broken down bus near some houses. Look north to see the ramp you have to hit. Jump the bus. 31. From where you are now, there's a large sewage channel that runs north to south. Facing east, in the middle, is a ramp. Hit it and clear the channel. 32. This one too me ages to find. Go north from the Cuban's cafe. You'll eventually come to a set of alleys that make a '+' type intersection on your minimap. Take the south one, and keep hitting the ramps until you end up hitting the one you need to. Lastly, we go to Downtown. 33. Facing Ammunation is a long flight of stairs. Get some speed and you can land on the building. You do this in the Biker mission, 'Hog Tied', but you can do it any time. The last three can be hit anytime, but it's stupid. You do them during the last Film Studio mission, G-Spotlight. 34. When you start the mission, you get this one as you crash through the glass onto the huge building opposite. 35. Eventually, you'll come to a ramp on top of the hospital. Use it to clear the road and land on the Secondhand Circuitry shop. 36. The last one! Are you psyched? No? Meh, you shouldn't be. You don't get $1,000,000 when you complete all the jumps. Just $10,000. Poopy foo. This is the last jump of the mission; the one that leads to the spotlight. ============================================================================== Police Bribe Locations ============================================================================== Police Bribe Locations-- -Ocean Beach, behind (west) of the Ocean View Hotel, look in the underground mall -Washington Beach, in the alleyway south of the police station -Vice Point, across the river from the Malibu Club behind some buildings -Vice Point, across (south) from the Well-Stacked Pizza -Vice Point, across (east) from Links View Apartment, in the alley -Prawn Island, on the southernmost road -Downtown, Hyman Condo -Little Haiti, east of the Kaufman Cab in the alleyway, requires a little stunt jump to reach it. -Little Haiti, south from Auntie Poulet's house in the alley. -Little Havana, east from Robina's Cafe in the alley. -Little Havana, behind Sunshine Autos in the field, requires a little jumping exercise. ============================================================================== Tips and Tricks ============================================================================== -----General Cheats -All Weapons #1: Press R1, R2, L1, R2, Left, Down, Right, Up, Left, Down, Right, Up during Game Play. -All Weapons #2 R1, R2, L1, R2, L, D, R, U, L, D, D, L -All Weapons #3 R1, R2, L1, R2, L, D, R, U, L, D, D, D -Armor Code: R1, R2, L1, X, Left, Down, Right, Up, Left, Down, Right, Up -Wanted Level Up: R1, R1, O, R2, L, R, L, R L, R -Wanted Level Down: R1, R1, O, R2, U, D, U, D, U, D -Chicks with Guns: Right,L1,Circle,L2,Left,X,R1,L1,L1,X -Have Women Follow You: Circle,X,L1,L1,R2,X,X,Circle,Triangle -Flying Cars Cheat: Right, R2, O, R1, L2, Down, L1, R1 -Health Code: R1, R2, L1, O, Left, Down, Right, Up, Left, Down, Right, Up -Commit Suicide R, L2, D, R1, L, L, R1, L1, L2, L1 -Speed Up Time O, O, L1, S, L1, S, S, S, L1, T, O, T -Slow Down Time T, U, R, D, S, R2, R1 -Peds Riot* D, L, U, L, X, R2, R1, L2, L1 * Most likely, you won't be able to turn this off once it's on. -Peds Hate You* D, U, U, U, X, R2, R1, L2, L2 * Most likely, you won't be able to turn this off once it's on. -----Weather Cheats -Sunny Weather: R2,X,L1,L1,L2,L2,L2,Triangle -Cloudy Weather R2, X, L1, L1, L2, L2, L2, T -Very Cloudy Weather R2, X, L1, L1, L2, L2, L2, S -Stormy Weather R2, X, L1, L1, L2, L2, L2, O -Foggy Weather R2, X, L1, L1, L2, L2, L2, X -----Spawn A Vehicle Cheats -Spawn A Rhino O, O, L1, O, O, O, L1, L2, R1, T, O, T -Spawn A Bloodring Racer D, R1, O, L2, L2, X, R1, L1, L, L -Spawn A Bloodring Banger U, R, R, L1, R, U, S, L2 -Spawn A Hotring Racer #1 R1, O, R2, R, L1, L2, X, X, S, R1 -Spawn A Hotring Racer #2 R2, L1, O, R, L1, R1, R, U, O, R2 -Spawn A Romero's Hearse D, R2, D, R1, L2, L, R1, L1, L, R -Spawn a Sabre Turbo: left L2 down L2 L2 X R1 L1 O left -Spawn a Love Fist limo: R2 up L2 left left R1 L1 O right -Spawn A Trashmaster O, R1, O, R1, L, L, R1, L1, O, R -Spawn A Caddie O, L1, U, R1, L2, X, R1, L1, O, X -----Clone Someone Cheats -Change Clothes R, R, L, U, L1, L2, L, U, D, R -Play As Ricardo Diaz L1, L2, R1, R2, D, L1, R2, L2 -Play As Lance Vance O, L2, L, X, R1, L1, X, L1 -Play As Candy Suxxx O, R2, D, R1, L, R, R1, L1, X, L2 -Play As Ken Rosenberg R, L1, U, L2, L1, R, R1, L1, X, R1 -Play As Hilary King R1, O, R2, L1, R, R1, L1, X, R2 -Play As Love Fist Guy #1 D, L1, D, L2, L, X, R1, L1, X, X -Play As Love Fist Guy #2 R1, L2, R2, L1, R, R2, L, X, S, L1 -Play As Phil Cassady R, R1, U, R2, L1, R, R1, L1 ,R, O -Play As Sonny Forelli O, L1, O, L2, L, X, R1, L1, X, X -Play As Mercedes R2, L1, U, L1, R, R1, R, U, O, T -----Car Cheats -Blow Up Cars R2, L2, R1, L1, L2, R2, S, T, O, T, L2, L1 -Aggressive Drivers R2, O, R1, L2, L, R1, L1, R2, L2 -Pink Cars O, L1, D, L2, L, X, R1, L1, R, X -Pink Cars O, L1, D, L2, L, X, R1, L1, R, O -Black Cars O, L2, U, R1, L, X, R1, L1, L, O -Drive on water Right, R2, Circle,R1, L2, Square, R1, R2 -Change wheel size R1, X, Traingle, Right, R2, Square, Up, Down, Square -Perfect Handling T, R1, R1, L, R1, L1, R2, L1 -Keepin' Up With Traffic! When sprinting, TAP the X button (default) rapidly instead of holding it. You can keep up with traffic this way and not tire out. I've gone this way for several minutes without tiring. (Credits to J. Rebholz) -Motorcycle Passenger Trick I stumbled upon a little trick to get another person on your bike. first of all, find a bike with 2 people on it. note the position each person was in. (who was driving and who was the passenger) pick up the bike, and let the passenger get back on, but avoid the driver or he'll knock you back off his bike and speed away. not that hard, and good for a little laugh. If you get hit off the bike, just get back on the bike before the other guy, and he'll get back on like before. If you get off the bike, he'll stay, but when you get back on it the passenger will act as if you just hijacked him (like in a car) he'll be screaming and stuff untill you stop and let him run away. (Credits to KeithB) -Make Decent Money fast! I discovered this yesterday by accident, easy way to make a couple of grand real quick. As it turns out, parking is ridiculously expensive in vice city...on a north/south running street in downtown on the second island (south of the hyman hotel) there is a street covered in parking meters (it may be a curved street-sorry i'm running on memory here). If you run into them (or maybe use a tool like the hammer or baseball bat?) you knock about $2-400 out of them...the only problem is if you hit them too fast you will "wrap" your car around them and they'll get stuck in the engine...explosions are usually imminent. I don't think that this willful destruction of private property even generates a wanted level so you're basically just able to get decent cash with minimal effort. (Credits to C. Antiself) Neat Bike Trick when riding a bike, press reverse (square) and forard (x) simultaneously. the bike will burn some serious rubber. let go of the square, and the bike will haul azz. good for tight areas like roof tops for insane stunts if there are ramps...(Credits to Lelo) Wheelie When you do wheelies on motorcycles and mopeds, you have to be careful with your acceleration, so that you don't flip backwards, and you constantly have to watch over the angle your bike is at, so it doesn't tip. I saw, that this isn't so for the Sanchez bike. When you ride on it and pull a wheelie, hold back on the d-pad or analog stick with out accelerating, you stay in a wheelie. If you hold the X button to accelerate the slowest possible (light touch on the button) you can prolong the wheelie without having to worry about tipping. I usually wind up doing this down a long road like the one on the east coast of the western island. You can get some wicked wheelie lengths. (Credits to Skelborne) Neat Moped Stoppie Trick Anyway, if you get a Faggio or a pizza boy, you can do a stoppie by pressing gas gor a couple of seconds, use hand brake, regular brake and down, and you should go up for a second, but if you time it right and hit up and gas, you can keep going. My top time is 39 seconds. (Credits to Riku1590) PCJ-600 Trick If you push forward while braking on the PCJ 600 you can do a 'stoppie' and get bonus money for it. (Credits to Andy M) Secret of the Taxi Cab When doing a taxi mission (not for Kaufman Cabs) if you drop someone off right when the timer is at 0:00, the timer turns off and you can take as long as you want to drop people off at their destinations. You can do as many missions as you want (I did 50 in a row but got bored). It's an easy way to make a lot of money if you have the time and patience to do it. (Credits to Levi) Bike Tip You can bail off of a bike without taking any damage. Stand up on the bike (push joystick up) and then press triangle and you'll jump off and land on your feet without taking any damage. (Credits to J. Busby) Sanchez Trick When you're riding a Sanchez(Dirtbike), press X very slightly. Drive as slow as possible towards a wall(smooth one, not a wall with windows or such). When you almost touch the wall, if possible, pop a Wheelie. In any case, the Sanchez will drive maybe 2 feet up the wall, and if you hit the gas, it can go up to 10 feet! This is pretty hard tho, but practice makes perfect.. (Credits to Snodawg) Quick Reload Ability: Go to the AmmuNation in Ocean Beach. The one with the shooting range in it. Go to the back where the range is. Do the shooting mission. If you get the score of 50 with decent accuracy you will be rewarded with the quick reload ability. The easiest way to get 50 is shoot the farthest target only. First shoot the bodies of the first two targets and just leave the heads. This way you will be able to see the farthest target at all times and nothing will get in your way. Just keep working at it and you should eventually be able to get it. ============================================================================== Credits ============================================================================== Rockstar North - for devloping the game itself.
