If you have any questions just e-mail them to me at the given e-mail address and I will reply as soon as possible. ***WARNING*** This FAQ includes a few spoilers (such as characters), if you are trying not to learn about the game before you get to that point then please remember it contains spoilers. I will not be held responsible for any bits that spoil your game. You have been warned. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- General Game Info -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Welcome to the 1980's Welcome to Vice City, a huge urban sprawl stretching from the beach to the wamps and the glitz to the ghetto, a town brimming with delights and degradation. 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 right back and take over the city himself. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Cheats -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________________________________ |Key | Meaning | |----|-----------------------------------| |<- |Left | |-> |Right | |Dwn |Down | |[] |Sqaure | |O |Circle | |Tri |Triangle | | * |Cheat will not turn off once active| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ *Weapon* ______________________________________________________________________________ |Description |PS2 Cheat |PC Cheat | |---------------|-------------------------------------------|------------------| |Least Powerful |R1 R2 L1 R2 <- Dwn -> Up <- Dwn -> Up |THUGSTOOLS | |Medium Power |R1 R2 L1 R2 <- Dwn -> Up <- Dwn Dwn Dwn |PROFESSIONALTOOLS | |Most Powerful |R1 R2 L1 R2 <- Dwn -> Up <- Dwn Dwn <- |NUTTERTOOLS | ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ *Personal * ______________________________________________________________________________ |Description |PS2 Cheat |PC Cheat | |---------------|-------------------------------------------|------------------| |Health |R1 R2 L1 O <- Dwn -> Up <- Dwn -> Up |ASPRINE | |Armour |R1 R2 L1 X <- Dwn -> Up <- Dwn -> Up |PRECIOUSPROTECTION| |Suicide |-> L2 Dwn R1 <- <- R1 L1 L2 L1 |ICANTTAKEITANYMORE| |Have a Smoke | |CERTAINDEATH | ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Note If this code is enabled when there is damage on your car the meter will be reset to zero without changing the visible effects of the damage. *Wanted Level* ______________________________________________________________________________ |Description |PS2 Cheat |PC Cheat | |---------------|-------------------------------------------|------------------| |Raise It by two|R1 R1 O R2 <- -> <- -> <- -> |YOUWONTTAKEMEALIVE| |Lower It |R1 R1 O R2 Up Dwn Up Dwn Up Dwn |LEAVEMEALONE | ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ *Weather Changing* ______________________________________________________________________________ |Description |PS2 Cheat |PC Cheat | |---------------|-------------------------------------------|------------------| |Sunny |R2 X L1 L1 L2 L2 L2 Dwn |ALOVELYDAY | |Cloudy |R2 X L1 L1 L2 L2 L2 Tri |APLEASANTDAY | |Very Cloudy |R2 X L1 L1 L2 L2 L2 [] |ABITDRIEG | |Stormy |R2 X L1 L1 L2 L2 L2 O |CATSANDDOGS | |Foggy |R2 X L1 L1 L2 L2 L2 X |CANTSEEATHING | ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ *Pedestrians* ______________________________________________________________________________ |Description |PS2 Cheat |PC Cheat | |---------------|-----------------------------------|--------------------------| |Peds Riot |Dwn <- Up <- X R2 R1 L2 L1 |FIGHTFIGHTFIGHT |* |Peds Hate You |Dwn Up Up Up X R2 R1 L2 L2 |NOBODYLIKESME |* |Have Weapons |R2 R1 X Tri X Tri Up Dwn |OURGODGIVENRIGHTTOBEARARMS|* |Ladies Man |O X L1 L1 R2 X X O Tri |FANNYMAGNET |* |Gals Have Weapn|-> L1 O <- X R1 L1 L1 X | |* |Zombie Peds |[] L1 Tri R2 [] L1 L1 | |* ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Ladies Man -

For those who've read the FINE manual and noticed that there are street races, you have to buy the car dealership (south of the Cubans' restaurant on the way to the airport). That's just one example of missions unlocked by buying stuff. Import Export Garage If You Buy Sunshine Autos it is in the under ground garage. To the right is the list and garage to park cars. Once you’re done with the list you get an asset and a car is places in the sun shine Autos building. 9) Pole Dancer Cut-Scene After u do the mission to get the asset (go into the room with the private dancer and spend $600) u go all the way in the back of the hall way on the right and the room is now open, u walk in to see a pole dance =) -------------------------------------- Cars, Money & Stuff -------------------------------------- --North point RC Bandit Race-- Get in the Toy Fun Van near the dirt bike track. --More Money-- Knock over the parking meters on the sides of the streets to get money. you can do this by driving a car into the Meters. --Voodoo Hydraulics-- To work the hydraulics in the Voodoo, press R3. --Leave car door open-- Exit a car while holding Handbrake. You will not close the door, which can be useful if you know that you are going to need to get back in quickly. --Brake or turn better-- Hold R1 for better turns and braking. --Motorcycles Tricks-- Press Down(2) while riding a motorcycle-class vehicle to pop a wheelie. Press Up(2) while riding to stand. Get a PCJ 600. From a stop, press Down and press X. When the motorcycle is in a wheelie, tap the X rapidly to keep the bike up. This will allow you stay in the wheelie for as long as desired. This is also a great way to make money. Choose a dirt bike or sport bike and build up a little speed. If you hit the regular and emergency brakes at the same time and stand up (Left Analogue-stick Up), you can do a stoppie and earn some money. You can also get extra points for flipping around 180 degrees on the front wheel. --Helicopters Hovering-- Hold L3 while flying a helicopter-class vehicle to hover. This can be used to immediately slow down while flying fast. --Drive By In Helicopter:-- To do a drive by in a Helicopter, you must be on Cinematic view. Now you can do drive bys using the normal Buttons (L2, R2, o) Your look left/right buttons (L2, R2) rotate the chopper. To dive out of a vehicle, drive fast and hold triangle (after you're going fast). You roll on the ground (a la the movies) and take damage (wear armour, it absorbs it). If you're on a bike, you'll just go bow-legged and hop off. --MORE CYCLE TRICKS-- STANDING UP The reason you can stand is because if you're blazing down the road (best to use the pcj 600 or the faggio) and are holding up and then hold the brake button, you can do what's called a "brakie". It’s basically where you ride on only the front tire while braking. WHEELIES Hold down while riding. As with the Brakie, you can get $ for doing it for a while. It takes a while to get down pat but it's fun to do. And just so everyone knows, you can do a wheelie with ~every~ bike in the game. --Kidnapping-- Other people in/on a vehicle. If you see a car that has 2 people in it, jack it from the driver’s side. Sometimes the passenger will stay in but they're annoying because they scream a LOT (hell, you just kidnapped them so...). If it's a bike, shoot the driver off and sometimes the passenger will stay on. It's harder to ride though. Also, if you knock the driver off the bike (the passenger goes with him) the passenger will sometimes get back on. --Save a Helicopter-- Just park a new heli on the helipad exactly where the original one was. Go save. Go back and use that new heli u put or whatever you want to do. Afterwards, go get another one and replace the one that was up there. Go save. It should be up there. --A Car in MY mansion NEVER-- Ok well u knows that in the Vercetti mansion u can’t bring a vehicle inside right? Well U can! Just park any vehicle near the entrance and take another vehicle and use it to push that one through the main door and then go in and after it loads your vehicle should be in the mansion!! I found it fun to drive a pcj around the mansion and then blow it up at the helipad at the top where the barrels of explosives are! --Cool Trick-- Get on a bike, must have Uzi or other gun like it. Start a wheelie and keep holding back... and now shoot the gun then stop shooting but keep holding back.... The wheelie will be stuck in mid air while you’re still cruising. To get out of wheelie press gas or let go of down. I got a 60 second one so far. TIP: get a lot of speed before you do it 1) You get money if you kill the people the cops are chasing. 2) You can steal a FBI rancher, all four agents will get out and let you have it:\ 3) TO drop kick people off bikes run at them and hit triangle, thus kicking them off. 4) You can get a police heli by going to the heli pad on top of the station in the second island. (by the bikers bar) 5) get the Seahawk, just by Pole Position there is a Seahawk on a roof top (need another heli to get it) get in it, u can do the check point race or just fly around with it. --A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE ASKED ME FOR A MONEY CHEAT THERE IS NONE THAT I KNOW OF BUT THERE ARE MONEY TRICKS-- First of all you know there are fake security guards in the North point mall who the police chase from time to time. Well if the police are chasing them run up and hit the blue security guard and get a $50" Good Citizen’s Bonus" for punching the guard. Only use your fists, no brass knuckles, you earn more money without it. Make sure you don't hit the police. Hit the guard until he's dead and keep kicking his dead body to earn more bonuses' cash until it vanishes. I've gotten like $200 to $300 dollars doing the preceding method. Make sure the police are chasing the blue security guards before you hit them. It's the only way to earn a "Good Citizens Bonus". Also if you like to cheat, then listen up. You know that when you rob a store and a alarm is sounded, well I found a easy way to make the robbery successful without the 'Fuzz' all over you. First go to the desired store and hold up the store clerk until the wanted level goes to its maximum. It depends how far you are into the game. For me I have 3 stars maximum. Then release the auto-aim and the alarm goes on. Quickly enter the lower wanted cheat to erase your wanted level down to zero. Then walk out happy with over a $1000 bucks to spend. You'll be rich in no time at all doing those methods. You don't have to stress over any of the side-missions or main missions and earn much cash in the process. Have fun experimenting Another Tip 1. Spawn a Rhino 2. Get in and start vigilante mission 3. Exit Rhino 4. Use blow up all cars cheat 5. You get some reward money 6. Spawn another Rhino before the vigilante timer runs out 7. Repeat 1-5 until enough money is received (These tips were not submitted) 10) Get a comet, take it to where the roads cross right before u get to the southernmost bridge. Stop it in the grass right after u get off the road. Once stopped, gun it straight into the water. Do not let go of the gas petal before u hit the water or while in it. once u hit the water, either press up or right (while still holding the gas. the car will eventually go too far down into the water and it will respawn u in the road with anywhere from $30-$1000 unique stunt bonus... --Black and Pink Cars-- Use the Black cars or Pink cars cheat, and save the car of your choice in your garage. Now save. The car will be the same colour while the other cars will be normal colour. --My Car is on Fire HELP!!!-- Simply use the Health cheat and it will put out the fire and heal your car to full health (not visually) --Get in With Weapons when tehre are metal detectors about-- Park a car next to the metal detectors, and use it to jump over them. --Helicopters DO have wheels-- Put a helicopter in the Pay and Spray and watch em, come out with wheels. --More cars in garage-- Drive next to a full garage, and make sure the cars are touching the far wall (the ones already inside). Park the car right next to the garage door and walk out, then wait for the garage to open and then get in the car and push the accelerator button. This will let you get in the garage before it closes, and once your in even slightly, it will open automatically. --Free Pay and Spreay-- Using the Health Cheat before going into a pay and spray fixes your car for free. --Try and get me-- Cops cant get you whilst you are in a coach, but you wont be able to control the coach. Get back out and then in, to regain control. -------------------------------------- Side Missions -------------------------------------- --A Side Mission x3-- Hymen memorial stadium doors open at 8 pm...or 2000 on the game clock. There are 3 events...each operate on different nights. --PIZZA PLACE-- There are 2 pizza places in the game. Check your map for the one on the east side of Vice but the one on the west side is just south of the Hyman Condo. Go behind the pizza restaurant near the beach and steal the pizza delivery moped and press R3 to start the pizza missions. Successfully finish level 10 of the pizza mission to increase your maximum health from 100 to 150. --Paramedic mission’s unlimited sprint/stamina-- Steal an ambulance and press R3 to start the paramedic missions. Get to level 12 to have unlimited sprint/stamina. --Taxi missions Hydraulics-- Steal a cab and press R3 to start the taxi missions. Carry 100 passengers to get hydraulics on all taxi-class vehicles. --Vigilante missions Extra armour-- Steal a law enforcement-class vehicle and press R3 to start the vigilante missions. Get to level 12 to increase your maximum armour from 100 to 150. --North point RC Baron Race-- Get in the Toy Fun Van on the top of the parking garage next to the mall to start the RC Baron Race, in which you will fly RC planes across the island. --Easy Missions with Helicopters-- Use the helicopter as much as you can. There's a phone mission where you have to kill a guy at the airport with the sniper rifle. DONT DRIVE. Use the helicopter and land it BEHIND the terminals (on the curved side with all glass). Kill the guy, and then run around back. The reason you 'park' out back is because it takes 4.5 seconds for the chopper to start up and you don’t want the cops pulling you out. The chopper helps you avoid not only the cops but the friends of the guy you just killed. --Fire-fighter missions Fireproof-- Steal a fire truck and press R3 to start the fire-fighter missions. Press Circle to use the fire hose to put out burning cars. Get to level 12 to become fireproof while on foot --Sir Yes Sir-- In a mission ‘Sir Yes Sir’ you can complete it by getting in its way and when the driver gets out you can jump in the Tank. -The Shootist-- 6) After the missions “the shootist” go back to the ammu-nation and go to the target range, there will be a mission circle. Go in and best the score (I believe its 30) when u beat it u will have faster re-load time. Making it easier to shoot the missile launcher. (correction it is actually 45, but thanks to mastamind anyway) -------------------------------------- Other -------------------------------------- --Play Beach ball-- The way to do this is simply go to your mansion at Diaz's old spot. From there, go strait out of your place (The way you came in) and go to the nearest house with a red cheetah parked right there. Go in the back yard and there should be an empty pool. Go in there and there is a beach ball. Run into the beach ball and go under it to bounce it off your head. There is also another one in the beach. After your second bounce, numbers well appear on top of your head. It maybe a little secret or something. 7) There is a beach ball in a full pool right next the house with the empty one. --Run longer-- Tap X instead of holding it to make Tommy's stamina last longer. --Restore health-- Go to your hideout and go to "Save". Either save or leave without saving and your health will be restored to full. --Decrease wanted level to zero-- Go to your hideout and go to "Save". Load the most recent save and your wanted level will drop to zero. --Wanted Level cleared-- you can clear your wanted level by entering a RC Racer Competition. You do not have to complete the competition to clear your wanted level. --North point Grand Theft Auto screens-- In the North point Mall, go into the Tarbrush Cafe.
