| I.1. Who Am I? | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ My name is Robert Allen Rusk and I am a hardcore gamer with about 30+ years of gaming experience. I am an ex-gametester (Broderbund Software, LucasArts Games, Point Of View Computing) and an ex-arcade attendant (Namco Cyberstation - Pier 39, San Francisco, CA). I also own multiple systems such as the Sega Dreamcast, Super Nintendo, Nintendo 64, Atari Jaguar, PlayStation 1 and 2, Xbox, and Xbox 360. I currently work at JCPenneys at one of the malls here in San Antonio, TX. Retail isn't the best job in the world but JCPenneys is a very stable company unlike some of the other places I have worked for in the past like internet service providers or web programming companies. I started writing guides in 2003 because I felt it was something I could do utilizing my writing skills gained in college and gametesting along with my passion for vidgames. Over time I have honed my overall writing and organization skills plus my creative thinking skills. I have extended the play value of the games I have written guides and FAQs for many times over plus I have received many letters from all over the world. I am also what one may call an RGB enthusiast. I hack my game consoles to try to get the best possible video from them and that usually involves tapping into the RGB Analog video signals and using them on the right monitors to achieve my desires. To this end I became a member of the GamesX.com mod forum and I post regularly on their "RGB + Video Discussions" forum area. In addition, I am a member of the X-Otic Computer Systems of San Antonio (www.xcssa.org), a group who specializes in Linux, Mac, and other systems. I am also a regular forum poster at GameFAQs, an occasional poster at www.Atariage.com and Digital Press, and I am also a member of the MOFAT (a members only message board set up by "Grand Theft Auto: Vice City" players who met on the Vice City message boards at GameFAQs). Outside of gaming, my interests include Godzilla (I have been a G-Fan since the age of ten) and Red Dwarf (I own all eight series on DVD). As far as favorite sports teams go my teams are the San Antonio Spurs (NBA) [the local team], the Denver Broncos (NFL) [although I live in Texas I am originally from Colorado Springs, Colorado], and the Air Force Falcons (NCAA Football). /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | I.2. My Setup [MYST] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ This guide was constructed using BBEdit Lite 6.1 and a Power Mac Workgroup Server 8550/200 (with a G3 card running at 330 MHz). It is now being maintained using TextWrangler 2.1.2 on a 1.5Ghz Single Core Intel Mac Mini. I view my work in Safari to help in seeing how it would look on the web and correct format errors. I also play GTA3 on my NEC MultiSync 3D RGB monitor using a homebrew RGB box that contains a EL1883 (MacroVision compatible) sync separation chip to
acquire video sync, for RGB use, from Composite Video. When I do my writing and guide revisions I run my Mac (on a Compaq monitor) alongside the Xbox or PS2 (on my MultiSync 3D monitor). This way I can simultaneously play and make changes to the guide at the same time. The sound is hooked up to an old stereo box I got from Radio Shack when I acquired my first Amiga 500 in 1990 and it has served me well considering its age. For my guide work I have 22 memory cards for my PlayStation 2. I have reorganized the game saves on my memory cards and I now have eight cards specifically dedicated to "Grand Theft Auto III", "Grand Theft Auto: Vice City" (Original Version (1.40)), and "Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas" (which uses up 15 cards), "Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories", and "Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories". These memory cards allow me to quickly go and try out new ideas (and modify old ones) when they occur to me or suggested by others. I have now done 100% Completion three times on three different versions (PS2 - Original, PS2 - Double Pack, Xbox - Double Pack) getting information for this guide. /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | I.3. From The Author [FTAU] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ Welcome to my "Grand Theft Auto III" guide! If this is the first time you have visited, you will find a lot of useful information in a highly organized format that you can use to beat all of the missions of the game. Quotes taken from readers' e-mail are presented "as is" and may include spelling and grammatical errors. I also employ some creative writing in the chapter "Liberty City: 1998 to 2001" and in the land-marking sections. When I first posted the initial version of my Vice City guide, which was my first one, I did not know how well it would go over and how many people would respond. I wasn't exactly swamped with e-mail but I do get letters from time to time. Sometimes people would ask for advice and others would say how cool the guide is. All it takes is for one person to say how good and useful your guide is to make it all worthwhile. And others have made suggestions that have been incorporated into my guides. I want to thank GameFAQs for creating a place where such documents can be hosted for the benefit of all gamers. I also want to thank IGN.com, NeoSeeker.com, TheVGNation.com, GameHelper.com, and many other sites for their generosity in hosting this guide along with my other work on their sites. I also want to thank everybody who has taken the time to download and read this guide. I love this game and I wanted to share my creative ideas with fellow GTA3 "thuggers".
And, of course, I want to give a special thanks to all those who have taken the time to write to me and tell me what you thought, make suggestions, and ask questions. With that said, let's get down to business shall we?..... /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | I.4. About The Guide [ABGD] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ The main emphasis of this guide is to provide creative and simple solutions to many of the missions for "Grand Theft Auto III". Many hours were spent going over each mission and finding unique ways to solve them. I think you will be surprised by many of the solutions found here. I also reference the map/poster that comes with the game (there is also a map in the manual). Some of the location names come from that. I have worked hard to make sure that this guide is as complete as possible but at the same time leave room for exploration. I even included interesting and humorous anecdotes, observations, and lines from GTA3. I hope that you enjoy this guide as much as learn from it. While this guide was written initially for the PS2 version of the game, this guide will also benefit those with the PC and Xbox versions of GTA3. If any of the strategies in this guide won't work in either the PC or Xbox versions, feel free to write me and let me know so I can make additional adjustments in future revisions. This guide is designed so that you can do the missions without any cheat codes. However, I have included one code, the Health Code (in "Advanced Tips And Information"), to give you a little flexibility because there are some areas, especially the Ambulance Mission, where you may wish to use it. Another emphasis of this guide is ORDER. If you do the missions and tasks in a certain order, the game will be easier and more fun for you. Although the guide follows more or less the traditional story order there are ways to acquire more powerful weapons early in the game. The chapter "The Porter Tunnel Glitch" is the best way to get these weapons early plus allow you to do all of the side-missions prior to doing the Main Story Missions so you can concentrate on those. Each Hidden Package, Unique Stunt Jump, and Rampage has a letter designation to make them easier to identify in this guide. In addition there is a three letter Neighborhood Prefix (listings below) indicating a particular neighborhood or area where the item can be found (in these examples I use "XXX"): >>Hidden Packages will be identified with an "H". Examples: Hidden Package XXX-H21. Package XXX-H32. XXX-H65. >>Rampages will be identified with an "R". Examples: Rampage XXX-R34. XXX-R16. >>Unique Stunt Jumps will be identified with a "J".
Examples: Unique Stunt Jump XXX-J24. Unique Jump XXX-J12. Jump XXX-J8. XXX-J31. 0======================0 | Neighborhood Prefixes \ 0========================0 PTL HWD STM PTB HPH RLD CHT PLV PHB TTN CLB CPT AQY

"Grand Theft Auto III" [GRTH] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ "Grand Theft Auto III" is the successor to the moderately successful GTA2. The first GTAs used a top-down perspective and a complex control scheme that kind of made the game hard to get into. "Grand Theft Auto III" put the main character in third person and the control layout made it easier to play. Rockstar made up a reasonably good story with real actors, like Joe Pataliano ("The Matrix", "The Sopranos") and Kyle Maclachan ("Dune", "Twin Peaks"). They also made up a world where you can do just about anything at any time regardless of whether it was violent or not. The combination resulted in making "Grand Theft Auto III" one of the most popular vidgames of all time. My first exposure to the Grand Theft Auto series began with "Grand Theft Auto 2" for the Sega Dreamcast. Once I got used to the overhead view and the controls, it was easy for me to cause all kinds of chaos and havoc. While there was nothing wrong with "Soul Calibur" and "Sonic Adventure", I liked the idea of being the bad guy (or anti-hero if you prefer) where I can do nasty stuff for the hell of it. However, it turned out that the Dreamcast version was a shoddy port of the PC version, a fact that was made more obvious after I acquired the PS1 version. No volume menu, no included map, music loops that restarted every time that you got into a car, one mission that you couldn't do due to a bug, and the fact that you could only save one game to a VMU (as opposed to 15 on the PS1 memory card) were some of the things that were wrong with the Dreamcast version (at least it looked good in VGA). And there was no real ending to "Grand Theft Auto 2" (either version), just a "Game Complete" screen. Very disappointing. But I still liked GTA2 despite it's flaws. I especially liked running over people (and cars) with the tank. And GTA2 looked better than GTA1 which I acquired later. GTA1 had more discernible endings at the end of each level and it also had music that you could also listen to in a regular CD player. Then along came "Grand Theft Auto III". I first saw it at a Game World (now GameStop - and moved to a different location) on Bandera Road here in San Antonio shortly after it came out in October 2001. They had it playing on their 27-inch TV so you could try it out. I decided to play around for about 15 minutes and then continue looking around the store. Two hours later, I'm still shooting people, running them over, and making a general nuisance of myself in the fictitious metropolis of Liberty City. Up to this point there were only two games that hooked me to the point that I got the system because of them: "Defender of the Crown" (Commodore Amiga) and "Goldeneye" (Nintendo 64). And now "Grand Theft Auto III" (PlayStation 2). I eventually got the system for Christmas and got GTA3 a couple of days later (my family could not find the game in time to give it to me for Christmas). I had a whole lotta fun with GTA3. I completed the missions, I got 100% Completion, and I went on city-wide rampages. But I especially enjoyed playing demolition derby with the Cops and jacking cars from the Yakuza
("I'll get you!"). The game is one of the best designed games I have ever seen. It was a freeform, do anything you want design that made GTA3 more than just an interactive crime spree - it was an experience. But GTA3 was just the beginning. Vice City would later outdo GTA3 on many levels and then San Andreas far surpassed both GTA3 and Vice City combined. With all that said, let's get down to the business of the guide itself and I will start with the differences between the Original and Double Pack versions for the PS2..... /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | 1.7. GTA3 Version Differences (PS2 Only) [GTVD] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ After doing some closer examination of both my Original Version and Double Pack Version discs, I concluded that there are no major differences between the Original, Greatest Hits, and Double Pack versions of GTA3. Originally I thought that they had changed the requirements of the Ambulance Mission for the DP version but one of my readers, Dan Schauer, indicated to me that this was not so and I verified his information. More details on that in the Ambulance Mission portion of the guide. In addition, I placed my GTA3 discs in my Mac and opened up the file "system.cnf" in BBEdit Lite: BOOT2 = cdrom0:\SLUS_200.62;1 VER = 1.40 VMODE = NTSC This was the case for both the Original and Double Pack discs. This means that the Original and Double Pack are of the same version number (1.40). Since the Greatest Hits version came out before the Double Pack this means that it is also version 1.40. If Rockstar had made any major changes to GTA3 the version number would change (and the game saves from the new version would be incompatible with the old version). However, they did make a couple of tweaks without changing the major portion of the code and version number: >>"Uzi" in the Original Version is now called the "Uz-I" (I use this alternate spelling in the guide). >>One of the songs for Double Cleff FM, "O Mio Babbino Caro", was removed starting with the PS2 Double Pack. It is not on any of the Xbox versions either. Why was it removed? Unknown. Thanks goes to Blank Blank for that find. /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | I.8. PS2 and Xbox Differences [PXDF] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ What are some of the differences between the Xbox and PS2 versions? Which one is better (from a technical standpoint)? Here's the breakdown:
/XXXXXXXX\ 0==========0 | Graphics | 0==========0 \XXXXXXXX/ The graphics on the Xbox version are better than the PS2 version and animate very well. Plus there's the added benefit of Progressive Scan for the Xbox version. With the release of Xploder HDTV for the PS2 you can now enjoy GTA3 in 480p (although the main title introduction glitches up a bit due to "meshing issues"). /XXXXX\ 0=======0 | Sound | 0=======0 \XXXXX/ The sound quality is about the same between the PS2 and Xbox versions of GTA3. The Xbox version gets a slight edge due to its custom soundtrack feature. /XXXXXXXX\ 0==========0 | Controls | 0==========0 \XXXXXXXX/ The controls on the Xbox version are OK even though doing drive-bys is a little awkward because you have to use the Right Analog Stick. The PS2 version gets the edge here because it is easier to do drive-bys with the L2 and R2 shoulder buttons. /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0=======================0 | Console Hardware Data | 0=======================0 \XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/ >>PlayStation 2 ************* The PS2 version runs very well with no problems. No sudden pop-ins or texture loading problems. >>Xbox **** The Xbox version also runs very well with no sudden pop-in or texture loading problems. The only time the game chugs even a little is when you are blowing stuff up with the Rhino. GTA3 also glitches out very bad if you happen to have an Xbox with a Thompson drive (I had to trade in my initial Xbox because of this problem). The best game. If have the Thompson problem.
way to tell if you have the bad drive is when you load up the you can hear the title music but the screen remains black, you bad drive. Microsoft used two other drives in addition to the drive and only a drive replacement will solve this particular
As a result of these technical problems I have to say that it is a draw between the PS2 and the Xbox version. This is not to dis the Xbox in any way however. I have a lot of games for the Xbox and they all look and play great. Based on recent information it appears that most of the PlayStation 2 library, including the GTA games, runs pretty well on the PlayStation 3. They can even be run in Progressive Scan modes but, since I do not have a PS3 at this time, I do not how well they look and play in these modes. /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0==========================0 | Xbox Version Differences | 0==========================0 \XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/ There are only a couple of differences in the Xbox version: >>Catalina looks very different in the Xbox version. She has a different hairstyle, a very revealing top, a tattoo on her lower back, slight panty exposure (around her pant line), and a navel ring. >>The dialogue in the cutscene for "Under Surveillance" (Asuka Kasen) was changed. She mentions that the federal agents are doing the surveillance instead of the Mafia. However, while the spoken dialogue was changed, the subtitles were not thus making the cutscene a little awkward. /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | I.9. Xbox 360 Data [XBDT] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ "Grand Theft Auto III" works with the latest Backward Compatibility updates for the Xbox 360 (you need the Hard Drive to play Original Xbox games on the X360). You can play GTA3 in many different resolutions depending on your monitor or HDTV setup. It looks and plays pretty good (although the main title intro chugs quite a bit). However, if you play it in 720p mode you may find that it slows down a little from time to time because the Original Xbox version was not meant to be played any higher than 480p. Plus, you can't do custom soundtracks when playing GTA3 on the X360. In addition, the White and Black buttons (from the Original Xbox controller) are replaced by the Left and Right Buttons which are situated above the Left and Right Triggers on the Xbox 360 pad. /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | I.10. Xploder HDTV (PlayStation 2) Data [XPTV] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ Xploder HDTV is a disc that will allow PlayStation 2 owners to play most of their games in Progressive Scan mode. Many games will work but some of them will have issues.
"Grand Theft Auto III" works great in 480p mode. However, the main title intro will be glitchy because of "line meshing issues". This is actually a minor problem since you can easily skip the opening credits by pressing X. Once you get past the intro, all is good. Because the graphics are designed for 480 vertical resolution it is not recommended that you put "Grand Theft Auto III" in any mode higher than 480p. The higher resolution modes, like 720p, simply shoehorn the 480 graphics into the higher end modes and tend to really squash the screen. With that said, let's move on to the most basic of functions...... /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | I.11. Controls and Vehicles [CTRS] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ Although the manual covers the setup pretty good, I felt that I should include a section on controls for those who have acquired used copies of GTA3 that have no manuals. Special thanks to spaceeinstein for his help with the PC controls and A1210 for his help with the Xbox controls. It should be noted that on the PC version you have the option of using the Mouse for targeting and driving instead of the Keypad. I have also included basic action and vehicle information with their respective control schemes. /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX0 | I.11.A.

Tapping the button in rhythm will serve to help you run a little longer. The more times you run, the better your stamina will be. You can solve the problem of tiring out by getting the Infinite Run feature which is acquired by successfully completing the Ambulance Mission (detailed later). [2] - When holding a melee weapon (like a bat) or using your fist, the Attack Button is used to swing at your target. When using Grenades, the same button is used to throw your weapon at the target. The longer you hold, the farther you throw. When holding a gun (like a Pistol) or a heavy weapon (like a Rocket Launcher), you use the Attack Button to shoot. Use the Target Button in
conjunction to aim at your enemy. [3] - When holding a gun, you hold down the Target Button target your enemy. Use the Previous Weapon and Next Weapon Buttons to switch between targets. [4] - You can do this for precision walking (like on a steel beam) by helping you "aim" your character in the direction you want him to face. /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX0 | I.11.B. In Cars and Boats \ 0XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX0 As with all the other GTAs there are plenty of cars to use in Liberty City. From junkers and gang cars to the fanciest sports cars. They can all be used here. There are also a few boats you can use when open up the other areas of the city. 0=========0 | Controls \ 0===========0 >>PlayStation 2 Version ********************* Turn Vehicle..............................................Left Analog Stick Turn Vehicle................................................Directional Pad Accelerate.........................................................X Button Reverse.......................................................Square Button Attack (Drive By Mode)................Circle Button (Plus L2 or R2 Buttons) Exit Vehicle................................................Triangle Button Change Radio Stations.............................................L1 Button Look Left (Drive By Mode).........................................L2 Button Use Horn (Or Siren)...............................................L3 Button [1] Handbrake.....................................................R1 Button Look Right (Drive By Mode)........................................R2 Button Activate Vehicle Missions.........................................R3 Button Pause..........................................................Start Button Change Camera Mode............................................Select Button Look Behind.................................................L2 + R2 Buttons >>Xbox Version ************ Turn Vehicle..............................................Left Analog Stick Drive By Mode/Look Around................................Right Analog Stick Accelerate....................................................Right Trigger Reverse/Brake..................................................Left Trigger Attack (Drive By Mode)............................Right Analog Stick Button Exit Vehicle.......................................................Y Button *Change Radio Stations.........................................Black Button Use Horn (Or Siren)................................Left Analog Stick Button [1] Handbrake......................................................B Button Activate Vehicle Missions..........................................X Button Pause..........................................................Start Button Change Camera Mode............................................

In the Rhino \ 0XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX0 The Rhino is probably the single toughest vehicle in the game and is one of the preferred vehicles to use in the Vigilante Mission (explained later in the guide). You can acquire this vehicle during a 6-Star Wanted Rating and take it from the soldiers, after the mission "Arms Shortage" (Ray Machowski), or wait until after you've completed the Main Story Missions where one will be unlocked for you at Phil Cassidy's Army Surplus. 0=========0 | Controls \ 0===========0 >>PlayStation 2 Version ********************* Turn Vehicle..............................................Left Analog Stick Accelerate.........................................................X Button Reverse.......................................................Square Button

The Main Screen [TMSC] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ Your Main Screen is where all of the action in "Grand Theft Auto III" take place. In the center of your screen is your main character, Claude Speed. You use
your Left Analog Stick to move him around and the Right Analog Stick to rotate and manipulate the camera. In the lower left corner of the Main Screen is the Radar. This is used to help in finding your current position in the city, objectives, mission strands, and Safehouses. In the upper right corner of the Main Screen you will find the game clock, your Health, your Armor (when you have Armor), your money, and the weapon or item you are currently holding. Special prompts will appear at either the upper left corner of the Main Screen or at the bottom. /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | I.13. Game Menus [GMNU] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ When you pause the game, using the Start Button, you also bring up these menus listed at the bottom of the screen: >>Stats ***** This is where the statistics for everything you do are listed. >>Load **** This is where you load saves, delete saves, or start a new game. >>Briefs ****** This is where you can go through the text used in the cutscenes, missions, and outside of missions. >>Controls ******** This is where you can see and setup your preferred control scheme. >>Audio ***** This is where you control the audio in "Grand Theft Auto III" and listen to some of the radio stations featured in the game. >>Display ******* This is where you control some of the visual aspects of "Grand Theft Auto III". /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | I.14. Weapons [WPNS] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ Weapons are the tools of the trade for any professional criminal. There are 12 different weapons that can be found and used to create mayhem and abuse.
The description of the weapons are listed here and their locations revealed in each major area of Liberty City: >>Fist **** Good for hands-on fisticuffs when you need a little money (or just to open a can of Whoop-Ass on some poor soul). >>Baseball Bat ************ Great for batting practice (on somebody's head) or breaking kneecaps. The Baseball Bat Weapon Icon is immediately available at all Safehouses. >>Pistol ****** A decent handgun that can be bought or acquired from dead Cops. You can use this while running to make yourself harder to hit while taking down someone at the same time. >>Uz-I **** One of the better guns here, it has a good rate of fire and accuracy. Like the Pistol, you can aim and run at the same time while using this weapon. >>Shotgun ******* Just a standard pump action single barreled shotgun. Slow on the fire rate but still effective. Perhaps too effective especially against cars. This is almost as powerful as a Rocket Launcher when shooting up vehicles. But you run slowly while holding one making you vulnerable to Cops and pissed-off gang members (and pedestrians). >>AK-47 ***** This powerful machine gun will make mincemeat out of anybody in your way. Like the Shotgun, you also run slowly while holding one. >>M-16 **** This has a very fast rate of fire but your sight will jump all around the screen. Good for quick work once you manage to compensate for the unsteadiness of the gun-sight (you have to hold Target to properly aim the weapon). This is another heavy weapon that slows you down when trying to run with it. >>Sniper Rifle ************ This fires one shot at a time and reloads slowly but it is effective. Use Target to manually aim the weapon and use the Zoom In and Zoom Out controls to help find and track your targets (the Zoom In / Out controls vary from console to console). >>Rocket Launcher *************** This very destructive weapon is the most powerful in the game. Use Target to aim and Attack to shoot. Don't be too close to your target though you can hurt yourself badly in the process. This heavy weapon will make you run very slowly while holding it so care must be taken when wielding it.
>>Flame-Thrower ************* Better than the Molotov for roasting nearby enemies because you can aim where the flames go. Its main use is against the Rhino since fire is the only thing that can destroy it. >>Molotov ******* Can be used to flambe' your enemies and yourself if you're too careless in where you throw one. Can also be used to destroy the Rhino. >>Grenades ******** Toss one of these and watch the crowds scatter (in more ways than one)..... /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | I.15. Health, Body Armor, Police Bribe, and Adrenaline Icons [HBPA] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ But Weapon Icons aren't the only things you will find scattered around Liberty City. You will also find these other icons that you can use to help you out. The basic information for each icon is listed here and their locations revealed in each major area of Liberty City: /XXXXXXXXXXX\ 0=============0 | Health Icon | 0=============0 \XXXXXXXXXXX/ This heart-shaped icon is used to restore your health to its maximum of 100. /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0=================0 | Body Armor Icon | 0=================0 \XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/ This armor-shaped icon will increase your armor rating to its maximum of 100. /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0===================0 | Police Bribe Icon | 0===================0 \XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/ These star-shaped icons will drop your Wanted Rating by one star when picked up. It is best to know where all the bribe icons are located before doing any missions so you can quickly deal with any law enforcement pursuit. /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\
0=================0 | Adrenaline Icon | 0=================0 \XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/ This pill-shaped icon will slow things down and give you super strength. Good for tight situations when you need a little extra help. /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | I.16. Law Enforcement [LWFM] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ Every metropolis has a Police force and Liberty City is no different. When you do something bad near a Cop, like mugging a person, one of the stars will light up indicating a Wanted Rating. The Cops will then try to bust you. The more stars you have, the more aggressive they will be. There are several ways to get rid of a Wanted Rating: >>Hiding out somewhere for a bit (only works at 1-Star). >>Driving a car (excluding rescue and most Police Vehicles) into a Pay 'N' Spray. >>Getting a Police Bribe Icon (drops the Wanted Rating down a notch). >>Completing the current mission (if you get a Wanted Rating during one). >>Getting Busted or Wasted. >>Saving your game then reloading the saved game (thanks goes to LR for that handy bit of info). There are six Wanted Ratings. The higher you go, the more aggressive the pursuit. Below are the Wanted Ratings and what you can expect..... 0=======0 | 1-Star \ 0=========0 You are of mild interest to the Cops. They will chase you on foot and will smack you with their fists when close enough. They would rather not be chasing you but will be more than happy to bust you if you're stupid enough to let them ("Anything you say is SHIT!!!"). Hiding out somewhere for awhile will get rid of a 1-Star Wanted Rating. 0=======0 | 2-Star \ 0=========0 Things get a bit more serious here. The number of Cops increase a bit and they will start shooting you instead of hitting you with their fists. 0=======0 | 3-Star \ 0=========0 At this level, a helicopter will start pursuing you and will shoot at you if you stand still long enough for it to do so. And the Police will get more aggressive in their pursuit of you. 0=======0 | 4-Star \ 0=========0
Now the SWAT team joins in. They will try to blockade the road with their Enforcers in addition to everything else being thrown at you. This is the highest wanted level you can obtain while (officially) confined to Portland Island. 0=======0 | 5-Star \ 0=========0 The FBI will now lend their assistance in hopes of bringing you down. They will ride in black FBI Cars and carry four agents, all packing AK-47's and they are not afraid to use them. In addition, a second helicopter will join in tracking you down. The FBI Car is the only Police Vehicle that you can use in a Pay 'N' Spray. You can max out at 5-Star after unlocking Staunton Island. 0=======0 | 6-Star \ 0=========0 After making mincemeat of the Police force, including the FBI, the city will now call in the Army to deal with you. They will come in with Rhinos and trucks and will mainly try to kill you (but they will arrest you if the opportunity presents itself). The soldiers will kill you quickly with their M-16's and barely getting touched (while in a vehicle) by a Rhino will spell certain death. It will be quite difficult to survive at this level for very long. You can achieve this maximum Wanted Rating after unlocking Shoreside Vale. /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | I.17. Using a Pay 'N' Spray [UPNS] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ As noted above you can drive a car or motorcycle, excluding Police and rescue vehicles, into a Pay 'N' Spray to change the color of your vehicle, as well as repair it, to get rid of Wanted Ratings at a cost of $1,000. There are three Pay 'N' Sprays in Liberty City where you can go to get rid of your Wanted Ratings and repair your vehicle: >>Red Light District (Portland Island). >>Newport (Staunton Island). >>Pike Creek (Shoreside Vale). /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | I.18. Busted [BSTD] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ If you get a Wanted Rating and the Cops end up catching you, you are then Busted. Any mission you were doing at the time will be Failed. When you are Busted, you are sent to the nearest Police Station where you will be processed (which takes six game hours) and released. You also lose all weapons including your Body Armor.
In addition, you will be fined based on the number of Wanted Rating Stars you have when you are Busted: >>1-Star: >>2-Star: >>3-Star: >>4-Star: >>5-Star: >>6-Star:
$100. $200. $400. $600. $900. $1,500. ++NOTE: You won't be fined after you get Busted on your first 6-Star Wanted Rating run but you will be fined the next time you are Busted at 6-Star Wanted Rating.
There are three Police Stations in Liberty City where you may find yourself if you are Busted by the Cops: >>Portland View (Portland Island). >>Torrington (Staunton Island). >>Pike Creek (Shoreside Vale). /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | I.19. Wasted [WSTD] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ If you do something to empty your Health Bar, like being too close to an explosion, getting shot up a lot, or drowning, you will then be Wasted. Any mission you were doing at the time will be Failed. When you are Wasted, you are sent to the nearest Hospital where you will be treated (which takes six game hours), billed $1,000, and released. You also lose all weapons including your Body Armor. There are three Hospitals in Liberty City where you may find yourself if you are Wasted for any reason: >>Sweeney Memorial Hospital (Portland View - Portland Island). >>Carson General Hospital (Rockford - Staunton Island). >>Hope Medical College (Pike Creek - Shoreside Vale). /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | I.20. Police Vehicles and Vigilante Missions [PVGM] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ In GTA3, you can also grab Police Vehicles and use them in Vigilante Missions (explained later). And there are a few Police Vehicles you can use for that purpose: >>Police Car (found anywhere. Bonus: you get 5 Shotgun shells when entering one (if you don't already have a Shotgun you can get a Shotgun with 5 shells)). >>SWAT Enforcer (at 4-Star Wanted Rating plus at the back of the Torrington Police Station on Staunton Island. Bonus: you can get Body Armor when entering an Enforcer). >>FBI Car (at 5-Star Wanted Rating. Bonus: only Police Vehicle you can use at a Pay N' Spray to get rid of a Wanted Rating). >>Rhino (at 6-Star Wanted Rating - also unlocked at Phil Cassidy's Army
Surplus at the end of the Main Story Missions). /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | I.21. Advanced Tips And Information [ATPM] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ Below are some tips and additional information that will be of benefit to you: 0================0 | The Health Code \ 0==================0 Even though you can do everything in this guide without the use of any cheat codes, I felt that I should provide this one to give the user a little bit of flexibility. There are several areas of the game that can possibly frustrate gamers and this code can be of use there. There are also a few areas where I actually encourage its use (like the Ambulance Mission)..... >>[PS2] - R2 Button (x2), L1 Button, R1 Button, Left (D-Pad), Down (D-Pad), Right (D-Pad), Up (D-Pad), Left (D-Pad), Down (D-Pad), Right (D-Pad), Up (D-Pad) >>[Xbox] - Black Button, Black Button, Left Trigger, Right Trigger, Left (D-Pad), Down (D-Pad), Right (D-Pad), Up (D-Pad), Left (D-Pad), Down (D-Pad), Right (D-Pad), Up (D-Pad) >>[PC] - Gesundheit 0===============0 | Quick Stopping \ 0=================0 You can increase your braking power if you hold down Handbrake and Reverse together. This works well in tight spaces (especially on the Ambulance Mission). 0================0 | Quick Targeting \ 0==================0 When locking onto targets with a gun (like a Pistol) while holding down Target, you can use the Next and Previous Weapon buttons to switch targets. You can also let go of the Target button and quickly press it again to pick up another target (after you kill the previous one). 0===================0 | The Tank Gun Boost \ 0=====================0 When you want to increase the speed of the often slow Rhino, rotate the Main Gun 180 degrees so it faces the rear. Then fire the gun and keep firing. The gun recoil will then propel it forward. The faster you fire, the faster the tank will go. You can make the tank go very fast this way. 0=================0 | Useful Shortcuts \
0===================0 There are a couple of shortcuts that are very useful and will cut down on traveling time. I have given them names and refer to them throughout the guide: >>Chinatown Shortcut ****************** This is a small north-south alleyway west of Sweeney General Hospital in Portland that allows you to go from Chinatown to Red Light District without going around the buildings. It is great for eluding Police because it also contains a Police Bribe. >>Gardens Shortcut **************** Directly across the street from the parking garage of your Wichita Gardens hideout is the Gardens Shortcut. There is a very large gap between the guardrails and will lead to a gently sloping grassy hillside. Going from the garage and through the shortcut will take you to the main road leading to the Porter Tunnel and Cochrane Dam. A real time saver. 0================================0 | Perfect Quadruple Insane Stunt? \ 0==================================0 One of the things GTA3 players like to do is to get the best Insane Stunt possible. The best I have done is a Perfect Triple Insane Stunt. This is about as high as most players have gotten. There was talk about whether or not you can do a Quadruple Insane Stunt but no one has ever reported doing one and everybody said that there is no such thing. But while perusing the "american.gxt" file on the PS2 version (with the disc inside my Mac), I came across this listing of Insane Stunts: >>Insane Stunt >>Perfect Insane Stunt >>Double Insane Stunt >>Perfect Double Insane Stunt >>Triple Insane Stunt >>Perfect Triple Insane Stunt >>Quadruple Insane Stunt >>Perfect Quadruple Insane Stunt As you can see, there is a Quadruple Insane Stunt listed. But since no one has ever reported doing one I have come up with two possibilities: One, that Rockstar took out the Quadruple rating (but left the text) or two, that the requirements for a Quadruple Insane Stunt are so high that no one has figured out how to get it yet. If anybody has managed to get either a Quadruple Insane Stunt or a Perfect Quadruple Insane Stunt I'd like to hear about it and how you did it so I can put it in future revisions. 0===============0 | Stock-Up Trick \ 0=================0 If you have a bunch of Weapon Icons at your Portland Island Safehouse you can quickly gain ammo for your weapons with this little trick.
Open the garage and remove any vehicle inside (just park it nearby for now). Then pick up all of the Weapon Icons to increase your ammo, run all the way to the back wall of the garage, and run out. You will see that all of the Weapon Icons have immediately regenerated. Repeat this until you have lots of ammo for your weapons. According to Josh Dady, this trick also works with the Police Bribes that spawn at your Safehouses. Then save your game, after re-parking your vehicle inside your garage, before resuming with the game. /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | I.22. The Purple Nines Glitch (All Versions) [PNGL] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ One of the most notorious bugs in the GTA series is one called the Purple Nines Glitch. This is a problem that has snared many an unwary gamer, including myself, since the PS2 version came out. Sadly, this problem was NOT fixed in the PS2 Double Pack version and even appears in the Xbox version though it is one of the most well known problems in GTA3. What is the Purple Nines Glitch? The glitch is related to the D-Ice missions in Wichita Gardens which become available in the latter half of the game. Most of the D-Ice missions involve the removal of a rival gang, the Purple Nines. When you first arrive at Wichita Gardens you will see plenty of gang members roaming about. Some will wear red shirts (the Red Jacks) and some will wear purple (actually lavender) shirts (the Purple Nines). After the completion of "Rumble" (D-Ice) you will effectively destroy the Purple Nines and from then on you will not see any Purple Nines roaming Wichita Gardens. You will see nothing but Red Jacks. The bug manifests itself when you decide to start a new game after "Rumble" (D-Ice) using the New Game option in the Options area. Naturally the game will reset everything, gangs, vehicle lists, Hidden Packages, and so on. Everything, that is, except the Purple Nines. For some reason, that remains off. So when you make your way back to D-Ice and do his first mission, "Uz-I Money" (D-Ice), there are no Purple Nines to be found - the game won't generate any. Therefore, it becomes impossible to complete the mission and you won't be able to access his other missions either thus denying you a chance at 100% Completion. How do you get around it when you want to start a new game? There are three ways. First, reload a saved game that is prior to "Rumble" (D-Ice) and then do New Game. Second, is to keep your first saved game, right after "Luigi's Girls", in one slot and never overwrite it. Then, if you want to start a new game, simply load up this saved game and play anew. And third, thanks to Fred Chagnon, is to load up the game with no memory card in the slot. After loading up the game, which will start anew because there was no memory card in the slot to load up a saved game, then you can put in
your memory card to save any new games you come up with. /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | I.23. "" [CLUD] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ In earlier versions of the guide I had given the main character a name: Alex. This was to identify him better within the guide and give him a little personality. Rockstar Games had originally not given "Alex" a name because he was supposed to be an every-man kind of character. So I gave him one for my guide. But, as "Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas" was released, there was talk that "Alex" makes an appearance and even has a name: Claude. I had doubted the name at first since I had not gotten far enough into San Andreas at that point to see for myself. However, after completing San Andreas and receiving the phone calls (with the subtitles turned on) that mentions his name, I've come to accept that the name for the main character of GTA3 is indeed Claude and I have changed the guide to accommodate. Claude also appeared in GTA2 and his full name, in the credits, is Claude Speed. According to Austin Taft the name Claude also appears in the "american.gxt" file on the PlayStation 2 version of GTA3. It appears just before the main group of readable text (that starts with the line "Hey! Get back in the vehicle!"). /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | I.24.

It is my |X X| way of linking "Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories" to "Grand Theft |X X| Auto III". |X X| |X X| It also goes without saying that this is MAJOR SPOILERS for "Grand |X X| Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories" so read with caution if you haven't |X X| played that game yet. |X \XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/ \XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/ With the release of "Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories", set in the year 1998, we got to see what Liberty City was like prior to Claude's arrival in 2001. These are some of the things that happened between the two stories: >>While it was understandable that the ferry workers were upset over the Porter Tunnel project, no one seemed to have paid any attention to the Callahan Bridge. When the Bridge was opened in late 1998, ferry rider-ship plummeted. Why pay for the ferry when you can go over the Callahan Bridge for free? Almost a year after the Callahan Bridge was opened the ferries were shut down. At that point construction began on the Porter Tunnel entrance for Portland Island. The ferry terminal was
dismantled and the remains, plus the dirt excavated, were used to fill in the nearby Harwood Dirt-Track. This, of course, leads to..... >>American Road Safety for Everybody (ARSE) finally succeeded in getting motorcycles banned from Liberty City much to the dismay of the motorcycle makers who immediately took the group, and city, to court. However, as is typical of the American justice system, the legal matters are taking their sweet time going through the motions. Although it appears that the motorcyclists may very well win the case and get the popular vehicles back in Liberty City, the shop Hogs & Cogs was forced to close after the motion was passed. The owners plan to reopen in a bigger and better location when the motion is finally overturned. >>Liberty City is still recovering from the Fort Staunton Disaster that claimed hundreds of lives. Many rumors still swirl about what caused the explosion (everything from sewer rats to mob involvement) but the official cause has been listed as "accidental ignition of natural gas". That still doesn't satisfy many of the survivors. To make matters more interesting, Pan-Lantic Construction almost immediately moved in to take down the ruins and begin building office complexes where the neighborhood once stood. The survivors filed lawsuits to stop the construction but stood little chance against Big Money which had the lawsuits quickly dismissed. Three years after the disaster, the survivors are still trying to cope..... >>Liberty Memorial Coliseum opened with great fanfare in 1999. That's the good news. The bad news is that the football team that it is meant for, the Liberty City Cocks, suck. The team has always been so-so but they have been on a downward turn as of late. Even the coach has called them out in the press saying that the team is "soft" and "unable to penetrate the endzone". The fans, who have been taken to throwing bottles of erectile dysfunction pills onto the field lately, aren't helping either. As for the Coliseum's obscenely small parking lot, that's a whole other issue..... /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | I.25. 100% Completion List [CPLT] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ Below is everything you need to do to get 100% Completion within "Grand Theft Auto III": >>Completion of all Main Story Missions: ************************************** --From "Luigi's Girls" (Luigi Goterelli) to "The Exchange" (Catalina). **IMPORTANT: You MUST complete all of Kenji Kasen's missions before the mission "Waka-Gashira Wipeout" (Donald Love) as well as complete "Two-Faced Tanner" (Asuka Kasen) BEFORE doing "Grand Theft Aero" (Donald Love).

The southeast part of the island is where the main docks are located along with many businesses. The western part of the island is home to many Chinese who have made this area their own. The northern area of the island has a large concentration of adult oriented businesses legal and illegal. On the eastern side is where a lot of Italians make their residence including the local Mafia. /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | II.1. In The Beginning..... [ITBG] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/
Liberty City: 1998. Toni Cipriani, a valued friend of the Salvatore Leone crime family, returns from exile after killing a made man. Once he arrives, he begins an odyssey that will eventually bring Liberty City under Leone control and bring peace to the local criminal underworld. Temporarily, at least..... Liberty City: 2001. A ruthless small time criminal, and our "hero", Claude Speed, is involved in a robbery with a couple of accomplices at the Liberty City Bank. As they make their getaway, with Claude trailing, a gunshot is heard. The woman, Catalina, has killed one of the accomplices and now has her sights on Claude. She shoots Claude, leaving him for dead but he survives. Unfortunately, for Claude, he is put on trial and sent to prison for ten years. As Claude is being transferred to Liberty Penitentiary, the prison van is ambushed while on the Callahan Bridge. It appears that one of the other prisoners is being rescued by a group of Columbians. However, Claude and another prisoner, 8-Ball, take advantage of the situation and manage to free themselves. As they set themselves free, a bomb, that was thrown onto the bridge by the Columbians, explodes. This leaves a huge gap in the bridge and destroys most of the vehicles on it. Now begins the first mission of the game, "Give Me Liberty", a simple driving mission to a little Safehouse in the Red Light District of Portland Island. This also serves as simple tutorial to the driving and map mechanics. You can collect Hidden Packages (to gain Weapon Icons) and Unique Stunt Jumps while driving around during "Give Me Liberty". But you can't do Rampages or any vehicle mission. Just park the Kuruma (with 8-Ball inside) and jack another car to do other stuff. When you are finished, go back to the parked Kuruma and go to the Safehouse. When you arrive at the Safehouse, your new friend, 8-Ball, tells you to go to a place owned by a guy named Luigi. You can't save your game yet so go to Luigi's. When you arrive at Luigi's, you start the mission titled "Luigi's Girls". After a brief introduction, Luigi tells you to get one of his girls from the clinic. This is nothing more that a simple pick-up mission. Take the car, drive over to the hospital, pick up Misty, and drive her back to Luigi's club. You will then earn $1,500 for mission completion. After that go back to your Safehouse and save your game. /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | II.2. Before Doing The Main Story Missions [BDMS] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ To start, I'm going to do as much of the off-story stuff as possible before doing the second mission for Luigi, "Don't Spank Ma Bitch Up" (Luigi Goterelli). A lot of this stuff can be done in any order but doing some things in a certain sequence will be of most benefit to you (like doing the
Ambulance Mission (for Infinite Run and Adrenaline) and collecting Hidden Packages for Weapon Icons for my Safehouses. /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | II.3. Your Safehouse [YSFH] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ Your Safehouse in the Red Light District is a simple little getaway where you can save your game and store one car in the garage. At the beginning there is just the Baseball Bat Weapon Icon and over the course of the game you will generate many more weapon and power-up icons here (and at your other Safehouses at Staunton Island and Shoreside Vale). After saving the game, let's begin by listing the: /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | II.4.

And while we're collecting things, let's go over some of the car collection missions..... /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | II.8. Industrial Import Export Garage [IIEG] | 0===========================================================================0
\=========================================================================/ At the Portland Docks area (in the northeast section of Portland Docks just west of the ship cranes and north of the Garage Building) there is a building that appears to have a list on one wall right by a garage door. This is the Industrial Import Export Garage. To get to the garage, when you enter through the main gate at the docks, cut through the parking lot on the left going northeast. When you get to where you see two paths (where three buildings meet) take the left one. Follow along the right side of the path (it will curve alongside the building on your right) and it will take you to the Industrial Import Export Garage. There are 16 vehicles listed that you need to collect. For each vehicle you obtain you will get $1,000. If you get all 16 vehicles listed you will get a $200,000 bonus plus you can have unlimited use of the cars you have collected. Just walk into the garage and pick one of the vehicle icons. You will then be instructed to exit the garage and in a few seconds, your new car will be made available to you. Below is the vehicle list as well as where to find them. These are some of the more reliable locations and missions to find the vehicles. "Generated at random" means that you have to wait for them to spawn on their own before you can acquire them: >>Pony **** Where Found: By the car crusher at the Harwood Junkyard, near the stairs of the China Building in Chinatown, or at the AM Petroleum Company (Portland Island) parking lot in Trenton. >>Securicar ********* Where Found: During the missions "Van Heist" (Joey Leone), "Escort Service" (Donald Love), or "Decoy" (Donald Love). >>Rumpo ***** Where Found: By 8-Ball's BombShop in Harwood, or at the Portland Industrial Estate (next to Liberty City Sawmills) in Trenton. >>Moonbeam ******** Where Found: At the HEAD Radio station parking lot in Harwood, by the car garage north of Cipriani's Ristorante in St. Marks, at Greasy Joe's Diner in Callahan Point, or at the Liberty Tree Offices parking lot (Staunton Island). >>Bus *** Where Found: Generated at random. >>Coach ***** Where Found: At the Bus Station in Trenton. >>Dodo
**** Where Found: At Francis International Airport (Shoreside Vale) at the west end of the Main Runway. >>Flatbed ******* Where Found: Generated at random. >>Bobcat ****** Where Found: At the Capital Autos car lot in Harwood, at the AMCO Gas Station in Harwood, at Marco's Bistro in St. Marks, at the Carson General Hospital parking lot (Staunton Island), or at the Liberty Memorial Coliseum parking lot (Staunton Island). >>Linerunner ********** Where Found: At the south end of Portland Harbor by the Health Icon. >>Yankee ****** Where Found: By the colored container crates at Portland Docks just east of the Industrial Import Export Garage. >>Trashmaster *********** Where Found: Generated at random. >>Mule **** Where Found: At the parking lot near the entrance of Portland Docks, or at the Liberty Memorial Coliseum parking lot (Staunton Island). >>Patriot ******* Where Found: At the SupaSave! Store parking lot in Portland View (you will trigger the Patriot checkpoint mission "Patriot Playground" when you enter so you will have to either successfully complete or fail the mission before you can store the Patriot at the garage). >>Blista ****** Where Found: In the parking lot behind the Shoreside Vale Safehouse, at the Rockstar parking lot (Staunton Island), at the car garage northwest of the Newport Pay 'N' Spray (Staunton Island), or at The Condos parking lot in Newport (Staunton Island). >>Mr. Whoopee *********** Where Found: During the mission "I Scream, You Scream" (El Burro). Some of the generated vehicles can be found when doing the Vigilante and Firetruck missions. Simply end the mission when the needed vehicle shows itself (after killing the criminal or putting out the fire) and drive it to the garage. You don't have to complete the list before doing any of the Main Story
Missions. As you can see, it is sometimes easier to wait for certain sections to open or do certain missions to get the cars you want. This applies to all of the car lists in the game. /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | II.9. Emergency Vehicle Crane [EVCR] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ At the north part of the Portland Docks area and east of the Industrial Import Export Garage is the Emergency Vehicle Crane. This works just like the nearby garage except it involves Police, rescue, and army vehicles. There are seven vehicles to collect, with a $1,500 bonus for each one, and if you get them all you will be rewarded with a $200,000 bonus plus unlimited use of the vehicles. Choose the vehicle icon of the one you want and wait as the crane delivers the car to you. Where to drop the vehicles off isn't obvious at first. To the east of the Industrial Import Export Garage you'll notice a bunch of multi-colored container crates with a Yankee parked against it. Just before the crates you'll notice some dark yellow diagonal stripes on the ground with what appears to be a magnet overhead. This is the area for the Emergency Vehicles to be dropped off. If you try to drop any other vehicle there you'll get the "We're not interested in the model" message. You don't have to get all of the vehicles before doing the Main Story Missions. Besides, you can't get the FBI Car until you unlock Staunton Island (so you can get a 5-Star Wanted Rating) or the Rhino until you unlock Shoreside Vale (so you can get a 6-Star Wanted Rating - unless you want to use the Rhino spawn cheat....). Below is the vehicle list as well as where to find them: >>Police Car ********** Where Found: At any Police Station or on the street. >>Ambulance ********* Where Found: At any Hospital. Bonus: you can get 20 units of health when you enter an Ambulance. >>Firetruck ********* Where Found: At any Fire Station. >>Enforcer ******** Where Found: Behind the gated area at the Torrington Police Station on Staunton Island or during a 4-Star Wanted Rating. >>FBI Car ******* Where Found: Can only be acquired during a 5-Star Wanted Rating. >>Barracks OL ***********
Where Found: At Phil Cassidy's Army Surplus at Rockford (Staunton Island). >>Rhino ***** Where Found: At Phil Cassidy's Army Surplus at Rockford (after completion of the Main Story Missions or after the mission "Arms Shortage" (Ray Machowski)) or during a 6-Star Wanted Rating. /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | II.10. Ambulance Mission [ABMS] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ Now that I have familiarized myself with Portland Island, it is time to do the Ambulance Mission. Let's face it, this mission is a pain in the ass. An unstable vehicle, no full map, less durability, and the arbitrary time amounts make this a lot harder than it needs to be. By doing this now, I can acquire Health and Adrenaline Icons at my Safehouses and the Infinite Run feature upon successful completion. And once this is done, you don't have to worry about this anymore and focus on the other tasks at hand. Even though Staunton Island is flatter terrain, the best place to do the Ambulance Mission is at Portland. On both Staunton Island and Shoreside Vale, you have to deal with the hostile Columbians who will try to yank you from your Ambulance and, if they do that, you will fail the mission. At this early part of the game, you don't have to worry about any hostilities on Portland Island (yet). The best thing to do beforehand is to practice driving the ambulance around before doing the mission, especially around the hills of St. Marks. Learn how to stop the thing properly so you can lessen the risk of killing patients. Learn the Health Code, you will probably end up using this during the mission. Go back near Sweeney General Hospital and start the mission when you're ready. When the mission begins, you are at Level 1 and you have one patient to deliver to the hospital. At each level you complete, the number of patients increase by one so at Level 2 you have two patients, at Level 3, three patients, and so on. There are a total of twelve levels to complete to successfully accomplish the Ambulance Mission. The ambulance can only carry three patients at a time so you will have to think in groups of three when doing the later levels. See how the green dots (the patients) are grouped along the edge of your compass and try to plan a good route to get to your patients. Try to go for the furthest patient first and work back to the hospital. If you don't think you will have enough time to get the furthest one first, get the first one on you see on the way then make your way to the furthest patient. When approaching a patient, Make sure that the patient is on the right of your ambulance and don't get too close as the patient is running toward your vehicle as you approach. When the patient just starts to get in the ambulance, go. This will save a second or two. Use your siren as this causes the cars to either stop or turn away from you making it a little easier to evade them. Use the Health Code, if necessary, when your Ambulance is smoking while you are dropping off patients at the hospital.
When you complete Level 12 you will successfully complete the Ambulance Mission and gain the Infinite Run feature (never tire when running). In my previous versions of the guide, I had said the following: "If you own the Original PS2 version, you have to successfully rescue a minimum of 50 patients (at the completion of a level) to get the Health Icon and a minimum of 100 patients (total) (at the completion of a level) to get the Adrenaline Icon for all of your hideouts during the Ambulance Mission. "If you own the PS2 Double Pack, Xbox Double Pack, or PC versions, you have to successfully rescue a minimum of 30 patients (at the completion of a level) to get the Health Icon and a minimum of 75 patients (total) (at the completion of a level) to get the Adrenaline Icon for all of your hideouts during the Ambulance Mission." But one my readers, Dan Schauer, indicated to me that there were no changes at all to the Ambulance Mission rewards: "I have the original version (I think, unless Rockstar did multiple versions Pre-Greatest Hits, like they did with Vice City). I can say for a fact that it is NOT a Greatest Hits or Double Pack version. And I've never had the problem mentioned, that you need 50/100 patients for the Health/Adrenaline. My understanding on how it works is this. You need 35/70 patients for the Health/Adrenaline pickups to appear at your hideout (read from Minesweeper's walkthrough on Gamefaqs.com, the numbers could be a little off). But, either because of a bug, or intentionally, it will not page you until you've completed an ambulance level, or lost the level with the required number of patients saved. (assuming all in one run, with no patients saved prior to this point) Ambulance Level 7 completes at 28 patients, and level 8 completes at 36, but you do not get notified of the Health until after level 8, or if you lose level 8 with the required number of patients saved. Similarly, Ambulance levels 11 and 12 finish at 66 and 78 patients respectively. The game does not page you about the Adrenaline until the completion of level 12 (when it also pages you about infinite run), or if you lose level 12 with the required number of patients. "In the DP version, if you're good enough, you can get everything in one run because you can rescue 78 patients in the 12 levels of the Ambulance Mission." (from your FAQ) In the version I have (which is the original as far as I know), I'm able to do this too. Just pointing this out. I don't know who's had problems with the 50/100, but I never have." I did the Ambulance Mission in one run in the Original Version and Dan was right about the info he presented. So the Ambulance Mission is the same for all PS2 versions (Original, Double Pack, Greatest Hits), PC version, and the Xbox version.
I also had a gentleman named Haenlomal inform me of a bug that messes up how the patients are counted during the mission: "How the Paramedic Mission bug REALLY works in GTA 3 "The count of the number of people rescued in Paramedic missions is bugged. Essentially, the number of people that the Stats screen says that you've rescued is not necessarily the same number the game thinks that you've rescued! For simplicity's sake, let's refer to the number shown on the Stats screen as the "external number", and the number that the game thinks you've rescued as the "internal number". When it is written that (for example) you need to have rescued 35 people to get the health pickup, this is refering to the internal number! I've noticed that this is a major source of confusion for a lot of players, so I hope this clears up the issue once and for all. Here's how the bug works: whenever you drop off patients at the hospital, the external number is updated. However, the internal number is updated *ONLY* at the (successful) conclusion of each Paramedic level. (In other words...oops! Someone at Rockstar was asleep behind the wheel on this one...) An example should help make this clear: Suppose you start doing Paramedics mission in a game where you've never done them before. And suppose that you've completed Paramedic levels 1 to 3 without any problems. At that point, the external number should read 6 (1+2+3=6), and since the internal number is updated at the end of every Paramedic level, it is also 6. So far so good! Now, on Paramedic level 4, suppose that you successfully dropped off the first 3 patients at the hospital, and are on your way to the last patient. At this point, the external number would read 9 (6+3=9), but because the internal number would not be updated until the level is successfully done, it is still sitting at 6! Alas, tragedy strikes, and you accidentally kill your last patient. So, you've successfully dropped off a grand total of 9 patients at the hospital, and the external number in the Stats screen reflects that. However, since you failed to complete Paramedic level 4, the internal number sits at 6! And the game engine itself displays that. At the conclusion of the mission, the following message flashes on the screen: "Paramedic mission ended. People saved: 6" And there is the bug in all its ugly glory! The only solution to all this is to keep track of the internal number yourself until you get the 35 needed for the health pickup, or the 70 needed for the adrenaline pill...yeah, yeah, I know, it sucks. :P Incidentally, note that because the internal number only gets updated at the end of each Paramedic level, the only time you can actually receive an award is at the end of a Paramedic level. Sometimes, this means that your internal number would have exceeded the requirements. Don't worry, you still get your reward. :) So, the final conclusion? Yes, 35 rescued is the requirement for the health pickup, and yes, 70 rescued is the requirement for the adrenaline pill. However, these figures apply only to the *internal* number. The external number (the one that is actually shown on the Stats screen) could be anything greater, depending on how much you have
messed up in the paramedic mission attempts!" And I had another reader, Mr. Spock, give me this information: "FYI ? Just to clarify the rewards a little on the ambulance mission in GTA III; the health icon becomes available after 35 saved people and the adrenalin icon after 70. That's cumulative and it doesn't matter whether or not it took 70 tries all at mission level 1, i.e. like in the pause menu under stats it would say "people saved 70" and "highest ambulance mission 1". But it takes completing mission level 12 to get the infinite run. So, completing level 12 gets you all three." With the Infinite Run feature obtained I will go on to..... /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | II.11. Rampages Explained [RGEX] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ As you go around the city, you will notice some skull icons laying about. These are the Rampage Icons. When one is activated, you will be instructed to kill or destroy certain objects within two minutes and with a given weapon with unlimited ammo (that you can't switch out of during the duration of the Rampage). The people that you are instructed to kill are always gang members and you can pick up money and weapons dropped by your victims during a Rampage. Each Rampage in GTA3 has two locations, a primary and a secondary location. If you fail the Rampage at its primary location, the Icon will move to a secondary location. If you fail the Rampage at its secondary location, the Icon will move back to its primary location. There are a total of 20 Rampages in GTA3. The numbers go from north to south, west to east. The primary location is designated as "A" and the secondary location is designated "B". Your reward for finishing Rampages will increase by $5,000 for each one completed and you will get a $1,000,000 bonus for successfully completing all 20 Rampages. One of the annoying things about the Rampages in GTA3 is that even if you are in the right position and doing the right things, the game may decide to not generate enough targets to complete the Rampage. This was something that was fixed, for the most part, for the other GTAs but has to be endured here. /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | II.12. Rampages (Portland Island) [RPGI] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ Listed below are the six Rampages for Portland Island and the strategies for each location: /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0==============================0 | [R1] - Kill 20 Mafia (AK-47) | 0==============================0
\XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/ Locations: ********** [STM-R1-A] - Between the car garages east of Cipriani's Ristorante (near the Mafia Sentinel) in St. Marks. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: Drive up to the Icon, get the Icon, and then go up to the entrance of Salvatore's Mansion. The Mafia are very hostile so they will gang up on you when attacked. The wall will help shield you from them while you take out those near the entrance. Go around the wall a little bit and take out those on the other side of the wall then go back behind the wall and get the ones that generate near the entrance. Repeat until complete. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ [STM-R1-B] - In one of the backyards running along an alleyway south of Cipriani's Ristorante. From Cipriani's Ristorante, go south to the next block and turn left into the alley right next to a shop with green awning. Once inside the alley, head east and turn left at the first opening on the left then turn left again. You should see the Rampage Icon against the wall. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: Do the same thing here. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0=================================0 | [R2] - Murder 30 Diablos (M-16) | 0=================================0 \XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/ Locations: ********** [RLD-R2-A] - At the base of the stairs leading to the top of Woody's Topless Club (across the street from Sex Club 7) in Red Light District. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: Go down the street and pick off the Diablos as they appear. Like the Mafia, they will generally gang up on you when attacked. Unlike the Mafia, however, they will either be unarmed or have a Baseball Bat as they attack. Their fists and bats won't do a lot of damage plus they make easy targets when they rush you. A fairly easy Rampage. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ [CHT-R2-B] - On the ground on by the west side of Old School in Chinatown. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: Do the same thing here. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
/XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0=======================================0 | [R3] - Destroy 10 Vehicles (Grenades) | 0=======================================0 \XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/ Locations: ********** [STM-R3-A] - On the elevated train tracks above the intersection north of Sweeney General Hospital in St. Marks. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: Go up the stairs leading up to the train platform in St. Marks and drive to the Icon. Get the Icon and drop a Grenade by your car then drop down to street level. By blowing up your car, you take care of one vehicle leaving nine to blow up. Run up to cars and drop a Grenade near the front then run away so you don't get caught up in the blast. Pedestrians will attack you but you can easily outmaneuver them. You can also blow up the two cars in the SupaSave! Store parking lot not far from your position if you need to. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ [TTN-R3-B] - On the elevated train tracks north of Joey's Auto Painting in Trenton. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: Do the same thing here but you can blow up the two cars at the AMCO office southeast of your position if you need to. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0=================================0 | [R4] - Kill 20 Triads (Shotgun) | 0=================================0 \XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/ Locations: ********** [TTN-R4-A] - In the alley between Liberty Pharmaceuticals (Portland Island) and Mean Street Taxis in Trenton. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: Get the Icon and go into the street to get the Triads. You can't run very fast because of the Shotgun and the Triads will gang up on you when attacked and they wield Baseball Bats and Pistols. But the powerful Shotgun will kill in one shot when up close so this Rampage isn't too hard even though they will take off armor and possibly some health while doing it. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ [PLV-R4-B] - On the ledge on the east side of Sweeney General Hospital in Portland View. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: Do the same thing here.

So get into a car and drive-by the Triads to complete the Rampage. This will make the Rampage very easy (unless you are not any good at doing drive-bys). +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ [PLV-R5-B] - On the ground right by the northwest corner of the SupaSave! Store in Portland View. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: Do the same thing here. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0==============================================0 | [R6] - Destroy 13 Vehicles (Rocket Launcher) | 0==============================================0 \XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/ Locations: ********** [TTN-R6-A] - Just inside the entrance of the large building east of the Old School in Chinatown. In an alley east of the Old School in Chinatown. From the entrance of the parking lot for the Old School, head east and through the intersection. Turn right at the alley just past the intersection. Once past the entrance, look right. The Rampage Icon should be in the corner. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: Drive to the Icon, get the Icon, and then drive to the AM Petroleum Company (Portland Island) nearby and take out the two cars parked there. Then drive over and destroy the Perennial parked in the street near the Portland View Police Station, the two cop cars at the Police Station, and the Ambulance at the hospital. Then zip over to Portland Docks and destroy all the vehicles parked around the place including your own if you need to. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ [CPT-R6-B] - By a tree behind the wall of the large building east of

Unique Stunt Jumps Explained [UNJE] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ All around Liberty City you will find objects that can be used as ramps for vehicle jumping. Usually, on most jumps, you will just get some additional money and not much more. But on some jumps you will get a slow motion cutscene as you fly through the air. These jumps are known as the Unique Stunt Jumps and, if you complete them correctly, will add toward 100% Completion. The best vehicle to use, for all of the jumps, is clearly the Cheetah unless noted. There are a total of 20 Unique Stunt Jumps in the game. Your reward for finishing Unique Stunt Jumps will increase by $5,000 for each one completed and you will get a $1,000,000 bonus for successfully completing all 20 Jumps. /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | II.14.

Notes: You can't touch the building in order to get credit for the jump. /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0=======================0 | Callahan Bridge (CBG) | 0=======================0 \XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/ [CLB-J5] - The yellow and black striped ramp at the end of the median on the bridge. Heading: West to East. Notes: Back up to the bridge gap to get enough speed for the jump and land on your wheels in the gap between the two main lanes. [CLB-J6] - The large dirt pile under the bridge near where the bridge lanes meet the ground. Heading: West to East. Notes: Jump over both white bridge bar supports to succeed. /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0======================0 | Atlantic Quays (AQY) | 0======================0 \XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/ [AQY-J7] - The ramp with the cones by the warehouse on the east side of The Warehouses. Heading: East to West. Notes: Use the long pier where AQY-H32 is located to get enough speed for the jump and you have to either land on the second building or in the gap between the two to get credit for the jump. [AQY-J8] - The large dirt mound between the piers south of The Warehouses. Heading: West to East. Notes: Use the sidewalk that goes alongside the Turtle Head Fishing Co. to get enough speed for the jump and you have
to land on your wheels to get credit for the jump. /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | II.15. Vigilante Mission (Portland Island) [VGPI] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ (Before you do this mission it is recommended that you acquire a lot of Uz-I ammo for doing drive-bys and know where all of the Police Bribes are for controlling your Wanted Ratings.) At the Portland View Police Station there is a Police Car parked at the front. If you enter the Police car and press the Activate Vehicle Mission button you will turn on the Vigilante Mission. You start out at a random amount of time (based on distance) and will be prompted to chase and destroy a selected target, which is another car. You have to kill the criminal in the car before moving onto the next level. You will be given extra time when you complete a level. Sometimes, if you damage the criminal's car enough, the criminal may exit the car to confront you. Drive-by or run him over to get rid of him. The first twenty kills on Portland Island will get you two Police Bribes for your Safehouses. The first twenty kills on Staunton Island will get you two more Bribes for your Safehouses. And the first twenty kills on Shoreside Vale will get you the last two Bribes for all of your Safehouses. Each Police Bribe acquired will get you one step closer to 100% Completion. There is a little trick that will make the Vigilante Mission a lot easier. When you get close enough to the criminal, hit Pause, wait a few seconds, and then unpause. The criminal will then stop and get out of his car in which case you can either drive-by or run him over. Works in the Xbox version too. /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | II.16. Firetruck Mission (Portland Island) [FTPI] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ This next mission involves the Firetruck which can be obtained at the Harwood Fire Station. When you enter the Firetruck you can activate the Firefighter Mission by pressing Activate Vehicle Mission. Your goal is to put out vehicle fires. You are instructed to go to a area and put out a car fire. The more fires that you put out in a given run, the more money you make. You are given about 22 seconds of time when you put out a fire and the game likes to make you go from one end of Portland Island to the other so you end up eating away a lot of that time. There is also a bonus for putting out fires. When you put out the first twenty fires in each section of the city (the first twenty for Portland Island, the first twenty for Staunton Island, and the first twenty for Shoreside Vale - 60 total), you will gain the Flame-Thrower weapon icon for all of your Safehouses and inch closer to 100% Completion. And like with the Vigilante Mission some of the cars you may need for the car
lists may be generated for the car fires. Abandon the mission to claim the cars as needed. /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | II.17. "Patriot Playground" [PTPL] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ When you go to the SupaSave! Store in Portland View, you will see a Patriot parked there. Entering it will trigger the vehicle mission "Patriot Playground". This is the first of four vehicle side-missions found in Liberty City. In this mission you have five minutes to collect 15 checkpoints and you are given 20 seconds for each one collected. The timer starts when you get the first checkpoint. Go behind the SupaSave! Store and up the stairs. After going partway up, veer right and get the first checkpoint under the elevated tracks (1). Then go down to the beach. As you head toward the beach, you will see the checkpoint there but you may also see the top of a checkpoint on the rocky part just ahead of you. If you angle the Patriot just right you can get this checkpoint (2) then the one on the beach when you land (3) (if you miss (2) then climb up the embankment to get it after getting (3)). Climb up the rocky hillside to get behind the apartment complexes and in the process get (4) which is on the edge. Once you get behind the complexes, go forward until the next checkpoint is directly right of you then turn right and head back to the beach in the process getting (5). Checkpoint (6) is off to your left and right on the water's edge. This one is tricky because of the fact that this particular part of the beach where the checkpoint is at is steep. Get right up to it, tap forward to go down, tap reverse to slow yourself, and when you get the checkpoint (6), hold reverse to go back up. Go up the rocky embankment to get (7) then back down to the beach. Go under the archway and along the left side of the embankment to get (8). Then go onto the grass and back down to the beach. Then turn left and go up the embankment to get (9). When getting (9), turn right and head for the grass. Once on the grass, turn right and get (10). After getting (10), turn around and head west. As you approach the rocky embankment, you will see (11). Climb up to get (11), turn left when you reach the top and climb up to get (12), then turn right when you reach the top to get (13). Then turn left and go behind Salvatore's Mansion. As you head behind the Mansion, you may see a checkpoint off to your left but that will be the last one collected. Checkpoint (14) is on top of the arch near the very end. Carefully go down and get it and back up the arch and onto the grass then turn around. Approach (15) from the west and get a good speed to get down to the ledge where it's at. After getting (15), you will be given a reward of $20,000. /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | II.18. "Mafia Massacre" (Toyz Van)/"Diablo Destruction" (Toyz Van) [MFDS] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ In an alley west of Cipriani's Ristorante in St. Marks and next to the
building on the northeast side of Doorless Apartments (East) in Hepburn Heights you may have noticed a blue van that had a logo on the side: Toyz in the Hood. When you enter the van, you will trigger a Toyz Van Mission, either "Mafia Massacre" (St. Marks) or "Diablo Destruction" (Hepburn Heights). What you do is take remote controlled cars and try to blow up as many gang vehicles as you can in two minutes. For these missions, you blow up the black Mafia Sentinels ("Mafia Massacre") and the Diablo Stallions ("Diablo Destruction"). There are a total of four Toyz vans in the game and each one will require you to destroy different gang cars. There is one Toyz van on Staunton Island and the last one is on Shoreside Vale. When you finish these missions, you will be rewarded $1,000 times the number of cars you managed to destroy. If you destroyed three cars, you will get $3,000, if you destroyed eight cars, will get $8,000 and so on. At this point I have done all I can do on Portland Island before starting the Main Story Missions. But there is something else that can be done..... /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | II.19. Going to Staunton Island and Shoreside Vale Early [GSIV] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ Part of the fun of the GTA games is to try to get around the roadblocks and invisible forcefields to get to areas you aren't supposed to go until the designers want you to, preferably without cheating. These roadblocks and forcefields were designed to keep you from getting more powerful weapons early or to finish certain tasks before you were allowed to. But, of course, there are ways to get around these obstacles..... /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX0 | II.19.A. The Porter Tunnel Glitch \ 0XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX0 On the GameFAQs GTA3 Message Board there is a sticky topic called "Purple Nines Glitch, Darkel, Donald Love Dissaperance and more questions" started by Huggable Joker Inc. Inside the topic was a very good way to get to Staunton Island early and without cheat codes: 0---------------------------------------------------------------------------0 "Getting to Shoreside Vale early without cheating. (Q) I want to go to Staunton and Shoreside to get the packages/rampages/etc but Idont want to cheat. Is this possible? (A) Yes. Go to Easy Credit Auto's in Portland and jack the Banshee there. When you leave, note the grass over behind the Car Crusher. Past this grass is a long white road. Follow it untill your actually on top of the Tunnel Entrance. BACK THE BANSHEE towards the water, the car should be sitting on the very middle line in this area, it's not hard to see really. When the rear wheels fall off the edge, the car will start to
fall, quickly hit Triangle before the car does so, and TADA! Your actually ontop of the Porter Tunnel and can freely acess Staunton Island without cheating. Once you get to Staunton, jack a car and drive to SSV using the Tunnel, it wont be blocked off untill Staunton is unlocked by beating all of Portlands missions." 0---------------------------------------------------------------------------0 Well I gave it a try and it works like a charm. You will be in Blue Hell but on top of the tunnel. Jump over the top of the barrier (that keeps you from entering the tunnel beneath you) and you can go to either Staunton Island or Shoreside Vale. If you decide to go to Staunton Island you will have to contend with invisible barriers that will angle you off into Blue Hell (if you run along the tunnel edges) but you can avoid them by running in the middle of the tunnel top. If you are heading to Shoreside Vale, you can run along the edges of the tunnel top. Once at the end of the tunnel at either Staunton Island or Shoreside Vale, jump into Blue Hell and you will land on the ground above with a loss of 5 Armor. This works on both the PS2 and Xbox versions. I don't know if it also works on the PC version. Once you are back on land (either Staunton Island or Shoreside Vale), go to one of your Safehouses and save your game. Unlike "Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories", the Safehouses in GTA3 are active and you can save your game while on the other side. /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX0 | II.19.B. Hidden Packages CHT-H19 and FIA-H97 \ 0XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX0 One of the Hidden Packages on Portland Island is at the Chinatown Subway Entrance but you couldn't go into it because of the gate. Now that I am outside of Portland Island, I can go and get it. There are no barriers to prevent you from entering the subway at either Staunton Island or Shoreside Vale since you are not really supposed to be here yet (as a result you can't enter the subway train itself). Get a small car, like a Stinger, and find the subway entrances. The entrances are: Liberty Campus Subway Entrance, Bedford Point Subway Entrance, and Francis International Airport Subway Entrance. Drive down, make your way down the stairs, and to the subway platform. Go onto the tracks heading east and stay on the left side of the tracks. After awhile, you will end up in Chinatown and you will see the Chinatown subway platform. Drive off of it and go up the stairs. When you reach the top the following package is within reach: [CHT-H19] - Near the Chinatown Subway Entrance bathrooms. Now go back down and to the platform. Re-enter the tracks going north. Keep going until you reach Shoreside Vale and the Francis International Airport subway platform. Get off on the right side and as you near the stairs leading up you will see a Hidden Package:
[FIA-H97] - Near the bottom of the stairs near the subway platform for the Francis International Airport Subway Entrance. If you are already on Shoreside Vale and enter through the Airport subway entrance you can get FIA-H97 first before getting CHT-H19. /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX0 | II.19.C. What You Can Do \ 0XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX0 Once on the other side you can do just about everything. Below is the list of activities you can do in the other two areas: >>Shoreside Vale ************** >>Collect 32 Hidden Packages. >>Do 7 Rampages. >>Do 8 Unique Stunt Jumps. >>Do "Rumpo Rampage". >>Do "Gripped!". >>Collect all but one of the cars for the Suburban Import Export Garage. >>Do the Firetruck Mission (first 20 fires extinguished). >>Do the Vigilante Mission (first 20 criminals killed). >>Staunton Island *************** >>Collect 34 to 35 Hidden Packages. >>Do 7 Rampages. >>Do 4 Unique Stunt Jumps. >>Do "Casino Calamity". >>Do "A Ride In The Park". >>Do "Mulitstorey Mayhem". >>Do the Firetruck Mission (first 20 fires extinguished). >>Do the Vigilante Mission (first 20 criminals killed). Plus there is the one Hidden Package on the rocks south of Portland Island (PTL-H33). And, of course, if you wish to do so, do the Taxi and Ambulance Missions while on the other side. With this glitch you can get up to 51% Completion, do all Jumps, do all Rampages, get 99 to 100 Hidden Packages, and do all of the side-missions. And, of course, unlock most, if not all, of the Weapon Icons for your Safehouses. Plus earn a lot of money. When it is time to start heading back to Portland Island you still have to cross the Callahan Bridge but in the opposite direction. This leads me to..... /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX0 | II.19.D. Hidden Package SSV-H75 and The Dodo \ 0XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX0 The best, and cheatless, way to go back to Portland Island is by using the Dodo which is found at Francis International Airport at the west end of the Main Runway. You still need the Dodo for the Industrial Import Export Garage so you can kill two birds with one stone here.
The Dodo is unusual in that it is not a car but an airplane. However, it is a clipped winged craft meaning that it does not have most of its wings. It can be flown but it is a difficult thing to do. However, there are FAQs that will help you be able to fly the Dodo for long periods of time. Then there is also the matter of getting SSV-H75 which is on the raised part of the broken drawbridge. Normally, you would have to wait until completion of "A Drop In The Ocean" (Donald Love) so the drawbridge would be fixed. Then get on the drawbridge, onto the median, and wait for it to rise so you can get SSV-H75. But is it possible to get SSV-H75 while the drawbridge is broken? Yes. It is a little tricky but it is possible. It requires the use of the Dodo to reach it. Those that are experts in flying the Dodo can probably get it with little problem. But there is a way for those who can't fly the Dodo: >>Step One ******** Get the Dodo, go to the intersection with the signal light (the one that leads to the airport terminal), stop, and turn right. >>Step Two ******** Rev up the Dodo (while holding the brake). Then let go of the brake and go up the bridge while pushing up on the Left Analog Stick (pushing the nose down). As you near the break, the nose of the plane should be scraping the ground. When you get roughly two to three car lengths from the drawbridge, yank the stick down. If you have enough speed, the plane will go almost straight up and high enough to reach the drawbridge. You won't fly very far but then you won't need to. Just enough to land on the drawbridge. Once on the drawbridge, go near the Package, park very close, and parallel, to the median. >>Step Three ********** You can't jump onto the median from the road because it is too high and you can't climb to the top of the Dodo either. But you can still use the Dodo to get on the median. Go between the Dodo and the median. Then jump onto the Dodo near the back wheels right by the rear windows. You should be partway up the Dodo if you jumped onto it right. You can't jump onto the rear of the plane but you don't have to. While on the Dodo, use the Look Around (Right Analog Stick) to aim at the median. Then jump from your position to the top of the median. Then go get the Package. If you can't do this trick, don't worry, you can get the Package later. For missions where I use the Rocket Launcher (in the early parts of the game), I also have strategies for using different weapons. As for the Dodo, just drive it into the tunnel to go to Staunton Island (because of its size you will be switched into first person mode while driving in the tunnel). If you managed to get the Package, get back into the Dodo and drop it onto the Staunton Island side of the bridge. Then make your way through Staunton Island and go to the Callahan Bridge. Go up the bridge without slowing down and you should start to glide as the bridge droops down. Gently pull back and you should land on your wheels on the other side. Then simply go around the roadblocks, deposit the Dodo in the Industrial
Import Export Garage, and save your game at your Safehouse. /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX0 | II.19.E. Early Explorer Bonus \ 0XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX0 Any strategy in some of the early missions that use weapons gained by doing most of the above tasks prior to the Main Story Missions will be notated by "Early Explorer Bonus". With that done, it is time to finally move onto..... /==XX====XX====XX====XX====XX====X##***##X====XX====XX====XX====XX====XX==\ 0===XX====XX====XX====XX====XX====X##***##X====XX====XX====XX====XX====XX===0 | III.

Luigi Goterelli [LGTR] | 0LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL0 \LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL/ Luigi runs the Sex Club 7 in Red Light District. He works for the Mafia and uses his club as a front for his prostitution operation. You have already met him and done one mission on his behalf, "Luigi's Girls". His missions are very easy since these are meant for newbies to get acquainted with Liberty City and with Portland Island in particular. There are a total of five missions, technically four since you have already done one, and they can be done quickly. He is represented by the "L" icon not far from your Safehouse. /LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL\ 0LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL0 | >L2.

Drive over to Portland Harbor and run the
guy over. The two girls nearby are not Luigi's so you won't fail the mission if you run them over. Exit your car and get into the pusher's car. Go to the Pay 'N' Spray to get it repainted then follow the blip to Luigi's garage and park it to finish the mission. 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0 $4,000 and there's one less pusher on the streets. /LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL\ 0LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL0 | >L3.

She lives in nearby Hepburn Heights and you have to pick her up and take her to Joey's Garage in Trenton. Luigi also tells Claude..... "Joey ain't the kind you keep waiting, remember, this is your foot in the door...so keep your eyes on the road and off Misty!" 0========0 | Weapons \ 0==========0 None. 0==========0 | Prep Work \ 0============0 None. 0======0 | Notes \ 0========0 None. 0=========0 | The Plan \ 0===========0 Drive over to Hepburn Heights, park in the blue circle, and honk your horn. Misty will then come out and enter your car. Then drive over to Joey's Garage to end the mission. 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0
$4,000 and you have opened up Joey Leone's set of missions. If you happened to be nearby between 09:00 and 19:00 hours, you may have heard a phone ringing. This phone is right outside the Bitch'N' Dog Food Factory. This is where you pick up missions for the factory's owner, Marty Chonks. But I will wait until I have completed all of Luigi's missions before I do Marty's and Joey's missions. /LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL\ 0LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL0 | >L4.

He wants Claude to take this guy out and suggests that he can get a piece from the Ammu-Nation nearby. 0========0 | Weapons \ 0==========0 Grenades, M-16 (optional), Rocket Launcher (optional). 0==========0 | Prep Work \ 0============0 None. 0======0 | Notes \ 0========0 None. 0=========0 | The Plan \ 0===========0 Get a car and drive up behind them but don't hit or shoot at them. Pass them up, get far enough ahead, and stop. If you do this right, they should stop behind your parked car honking their horn. Get out, get behind their car, and drop a Grenade. The car should be flaming as they get out and explode before they can attack you. 0XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX0 | Early Explorer Bonus | 0XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX0 If you were able to get the M-16 and/or the Rocket Launcher Weapon Icons for your Safehouses, you can use these weapons and destroy the car before they can do anything.
0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0 $4,000 and the Pistol will now become available at the Red Light District Ammu-Nation. In addition, the following weapon is now available at the Red Light District Ammu-Nation. >>Pistol [Cost: $250]. /LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL\ 0LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL0 | >L5.

Luigi wants him to take as many of his girls, who are spread out all over Portland Island, as fast as he can to the ball before the Cops spend all their money on drinks. 0========0 | Weapons \ 0==========0 None. 0==========0 | Prep Work \ 0============0 Get a Taxi and take it to Luigi's. 0======0 | Notes \ 0========0 None. 0=========0 | The Plan \ 0===========0 You have five minutes to get a minimum of four girls to the Ball and there are a total of eight girls on Portland Island. You fail the mission if you run any of them over or get less than four girls to the Ball. Start off by going north into Hepburn Heights and get one of the girls by the bridge then go to the Harwood Junkyard entrance to get another then pick up one near Cipriani's Ristorante in St. Marks. Since the Taxi can only hold three girls, go the the Ball and drop off the girls. From the ball go to the northeast part of Chinatown to pick up your next
girl then go back to St. Marks to get the one just underneath the elevated train tracks then the one by the Portland Harbor entrance. Then go back to the Ball to drop them off. From the Ball go get the girl near Liberty City Sawmills then go into Chinatown and get the one by Chinatown Plaza. Then go and drop them off at the Ball to complete the mission. 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0 $4,000 plus an additional $2,000 for getting all eight girls to the Ball. This also completes all of Luigi's missions.

He has four missions total and you can pick them up between 09:00 and 19:00 hours every day. His missions are very easy and comprise of mainly taking one of his cheap cars, picking up someone, taking that person back to the factory, and disposing with the evidence. If you're good enough and start the first mission at exactly 09:00 you can get the last mission started before 19:00 hours. Since the missions are very easy, I will group them all here instead of breaking them down: /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX0 | III.2.A. "The Crook" (Marty Chonks) \ 0XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX0 Take the Perennial, pick up the bank manager (who has been ripping off Marty) at the Bank of Liberty in Chinatown and take him back to the factory.

You have to dispose of the car in the sea and the best place to do it is at Portland Beach east of the SupaSave! Store right where the docks meet the beach. Go partway down to the water and then get out. Gravity will then pull the car into the sea and you will earn $2,000 for completing the mission. /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX0 | III.2.D.

Once you get the Securicar, take it to the Pay 'N' Spray to get rid of the Wanted Rating. Then start roaming around Portland Island. Why? To get the game to spawn Securicars for the Industrial Import Export Garage. The Securicar is easily the hardest vehicle to get because it rarely spawns. However, the game needs to spawn at least one Securicar for this mission. The Securicar you are riding, the payroll van, is a special one so it will not disappear on you when you take another car. Whatever car you are driving at any time is placed into an array of some sort so while you are driving around you will see a lot of the same car you are currently driving. Since you are driving a Securicar for this mission, you will see more Securicars driving the street so you will be able to get one for the Industrial Import Export Garage. After a few minutes, another Securicar should appear so get out and take it. Drive it to the Industrial Import Export Garage then go back and get the payroll van Securicar you left behind. Then take the payroll van to the dropoff point in Portland Docks to complete the mission. 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0 $20,000.

There are a couple of ways to do this depending on your style: Outwit Them *********** For those who like the thrill of the chase, just take the Manana and have fun outwitting them by going into narrow alleys and outmaneuvering them on the way to the car crusher. Ambush The Ambushers ******************** With the Firetruck, go through Chinatown, down the main road heading under Callahan Bridge, and smack the first car into the tunnel. Usually you will either flip the car over or get it stuck along the wall. The second car will then give chase and ram into the Firetruck. The Firetruck is pretty tough so you can just drive-by the second car, while it is backing up and ramming you again and again, it until it explodes.

0===========0 If you thought about blowing up the cars at the starting line like you could in Vice City, forget about it. The cars are indestructible no matter what weapon you use. You must race them. But what car to use? A Mafia Sentinel? Nope. A Taxi? Nope. A Banshee? Nope. In my opinion, the best vehicle to use is actually a Firetruck. A Firetruck? Yes, a Firetruck. Now, the Firetruck has lousy starting acceleration but once you get it up to speed, it is very fast. Also durable and, as you may have found out doing the Firefighter mission, hitting a car will send it flying because of all of that mass you are driving. Go to Harwood and get a Firetruck from the Fire Station. Go to the main road to the west of the Fire Station and head into Chinatown through the Chinatown Shortcut gaining speed as you go. As you near the three cars at the starting line, pick a gap between the cars (either the gap between 1-2 or the gap between 2-3). The Firetruck is too large for the gaps which is fine. When you hit the cars with your Firetruck, the race will automatically start. You will also smack the two cars you hit away from each other and one of those cars will also hit the third car. This will temporarily disorient them as you blast through the starting line like a bat out of hell. The toughest part is going from the starting line, through Trenton, and turning right heading by Atlantic Quays. After that it seems to get easier since you can get a lot of speed going from Atlantic Quays, through Callahan Point, to Chinatown. Be careful when power-sliding. Because of the Firetruck's mass, you can easily slide yourself out of contention if you're not careful. If they try to pass you during the race, just smack them off to the side. If they pass you, you may be able to hit them when they try to turn corners since they are very lousy in their driving. There are a total of 18 checkpoints in the race and the last one is near where you started. Winning the race will successfully complete the mission. 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0 $10,000. /BEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEB\ 0EBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBE0 | >E2.

But El Burro has other plans. This gang has a weakness for ice cream so Claude is to find the hidden bomb in Harwood, jack an ice cream truck, take it to the

Grab it, then grab a car (or the Borgnine Taxi) and find the red blip which is the ice cream van. The van is usually roaming around St. Marks. Find the van, jack the van, and head to Atlantic Quays. When you get there, park it in the blue circle, press Horn to start the music, and wait (do NOT exit the van. The gang members will slowly head toward the van and when they get near the Mr. Whoopee van, drive-by them complete the mission. More than likely you might not have acquired the Mr. Whoopee for the Industrial Import Export Garage prior to this mission so this assignment will make it easy to get one. Drive-bying the gangsters instead of blowing up the van will allow you to just drive the van, after the mission, to the Industrial Import Export Garage for deposit. 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0 $6,000 and a lot of melted ice cream. /BEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEB\ 0EBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBE0 | >E3.

Once you grab the weapon, you have two and a half minutes to kill 25 Triads. Basically, this mission is like a Rampage except that there are civilians present. Care must be taken not to torch too many civilians otherwise you will attract the attention of the Cops and that is bad since you can't outrun them because of the heavy Flame-Thrower and torching them will only make matters worse. Head towards Chinatown Park taking out Triads as you go. The park usually generates a lot of Triads simplifying your task. When you finish killing 25 Triads, you will successfully complete the mission. 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0 $10,000. After this mission, the Triads will become hostile to you so if you go through Chinatown, they will try to yank you from your car and hurt you. /BEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEB\ 0EBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBEBE0 | >E4.

Does Dallas 1,2, and 3. Worse, the thief has left the doors open and has spilled the contents all over Portland. Claude is to get the mags, kill the thief, and take the magazines to XXX Mags in Red Light District. 0========0 | Weapons \ 0==========0 None. 0==========0 | Prep Work \ 0============0 None. 0======0 | Notes \ 0========0 Glen T. Winstein pointed out a shortcut that can be used here. In addition, another reader, Kevin Berg, had an idea to increase the amount of time you have for the mission: "I recently read your FAQ and was quite impressed with the detail. I would like to submit a strategy for the mission "Big 'N' Veiny". I found that this helped me to beat the mission in a bit easier way. You receive the mission from the phone, and then before you get in the Rumpo, you run behind and sprint into the back bumper. This will push the Rumpo forward and you can effectivly push the van quite a ways to get a bit of a head start. I thought that this might be helpful." It is indeed helpful and this idea made its way into the guide. But somebody else, Demarest, took this idea one step further (info provided by Glen T. Winstein): "I just saw this gimmick by Demarest at GTA Forums and thought you might like it. It reminds me of the one you have of Claude pushing the van before starting the mission for a head start for "Big 'n' Veiny," but he has Claude push it E to the grass then S past Greasy Joe's (to avoid gangsters) and all the way to the end of the run. He has Claude get in, get out, and shoot the guy." This method is recommended if you have some time to kill since it takes awhile to push the van where it needs to go. I should also point out that you cannot go ahead and kill the thief before you enter the van. He will not appear until you enter the van. 0=========0 | The Plan \ 0===========0 As Kevin pointed out, go behind the Rumpo and push it forward along the sidewalk. It is actually best to angle the van into the street otherwise pedestrians will block your way. On the sidewalk along the right side of the street you will find gratings. First, there is a group of two sets of gratings (a set has three panels).
When you reach the third set of gratings, stop pushing the van and enter it. By getting the van close to the first set of magazines you will gain several seconds of extra time which will help you a lot regardless of whatever path, listed below, you want to take. There are two ways that this mission can be done: by following the assigned path or by taking a shortcut to Portland Harbor. The Assigned Path ***************** Get into the van provided and collect the dropped magazines. You have 20 seconds to start and you are given two seconds for each bundle picked up. The path winds through St. Marks, Chinatown, Callahan Point, Atlantic Quays, and finally Portland Harbor. This mission is difficult because of the unstable van and the traffic which keeps you from gaining substantial time. Keep a moderate speed and you should be able to keep the van steady enough, and fast enough, to hit the mags. The turn heading toward the park in Chinatown is one that may trip you up. Getting the Rumpo close to the first set of magazines will help you a lot here. The St. Marks Shortcut ********************** As Glen pointed out, there is a shortcut that can be used. However, as I am about to point out, it is not that much easier than the Assigned Path but if you are having difficulty doing it that way then this may be a viable option. Follow the path leading up through St. Marks and to Marco's Bistro. Then keep going straight, aim for the bush left of the tree, jump off the hill, and towards Portland Harbor. But some things need to go right. First, you should have about 18-20 seconds on the clock when you reach Marco's Bistro. That means that you have to have a very good run leading up to that point. That also means you can't hit any cars along the way. Second, after you jump off the hill, you have to land on your wheels. On most of my attempts the van would smack the fence and just flip upside down regardless of how solid my approach was. Frustrating. The Rumpo is a lousy vehicle and always wants to flip over at the slightest provocation. If you manage to stay on your wheels, then you have to go through the gap on the left side of the fence which is made tricky by the fact that the van doesn't go into there very well. If you manage to make it through, you can get to the last of the magazines with about 1-3 seconds to spare. Follow them to the end of the line. Because of these factors it may take you several tries before you succeed with this method. When you finally reach the thief, regardless of method, just hit him with your van then drive to XXX Mags in Red Light District to complete the mission.
0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0 $20,000. And this will complete all of El Burro's missions. However, the phone will still ring and there will still be a blue mission circle. Going into the blue mission circle will allow you to do the mission "Turismo" again. This is so you can try to improve your time in the race. But later on in the game, it will be very difficult to do "Turismo" so it may be wise to try to get your best times now. /TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT\ 0TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT0 | >T2.

However, the Triads have blocked it with a couple of laundry vans. Hit the gap between the two vans and make your way to the Mansion. Once past the gate, the Triads will not follow.

"Triads And Tribulations" (Toni Cipriani) | 0TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT0 \TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT/ 0=========0 | Overview \ 0===========0 As Claude arrives at the restaurant, there is another letter for him from Toni..... "We're at WAR. The Triads have a fish factory as a front. Most of their business goes down at the fish market in Chinatown. That laundry still owes us protection. They reckon the Triads are protecting them now, so I say we exact a fitting punishment. Take these boys over and whack the Triad Warlords! Hell, if you get a chance, pop some of their soldiers too." 0========0 | Weapons \ 0==========0 Uz-I, Sniper Rifle (optional), Flame-Thrower (optional). 0==========0 | Prep Work \ 0============0
None. 0======0 | Notes \ 0========0 Glen T. Winstein gave me a little suggestion that helps near the end of the mission..... And I got a new idea from Ian Spears. 0=========0 | The Plan \ 0===========0 There are three warlords to take down. One is in the Chinatown Plaza, another is by Raffles Fish Factory, and the last one is at the Turtle Head Fishing Co. in Callahan Point. As you enter Chinatown, a Police radio dispatch will announce that there is a gang war going on in Chinatown. You will see Mafia men fighting it out with the Triads. Chinatown has become a war zone so care must be taken while in this section of Portland Island. Drive to the Plaza entrance by Punk Noodles, get out, and run into the Plaza to confront and kill the first warlord with the Uz-I. Then get back in your car and drive to Raffles Fish Market and run over the second warlord. Next, find a Triad Fish Van, jack it, and then drive over to the Turtle Head Fishing Co. After the Triads let you in go over to to where the third warlord is and drive-by him to complete the mission. 0XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX0 | Early Explorer Bonus | 0XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX0 If you earned the Sniper Rifle Weapon Icon you can make your life a bit easier with this weapon. Use it on the first warlord and, after running over the second warlord, drive over to the west side of the Turtle Head Fishing Co. There is a hill there which you can get on top and just snipe the third warlord from outside the wall to complete the mission (this was Glen's idea). Another suggestion, by Ian Spears, is to get to the closest point to the third warlord (while still outside the wall) and use the Flame-Thrower to shoot through the wall and kill him. 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0 $30,000. /TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT\

"Blow Fish" (Toni Cipriani) | 0TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT0 \TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT/ 0=========0 | Overview \ 0===========0 Claude arrives at the restaurant and is given instructions to finish things once and for all..... "Ok, I've had enough of this shit. We're gonna finish the Triads in Liberty, once and for all. 8-Ball's rigged a dustcart with a bomb. It's on a timer so if you mess up there'll be no evidence. Go and pick up the dustcart. Careful, 8-ball says it's real sensitive and the slightest bump could set that thing off! Their fish factory will open its gates for a dustcart, so you can drive right in. Park up between the gas canisters and get the hell out of there! I want it to rain mackerel! We're talking real biblical here, nothing low budget." 0========0 | Weapons \ 0==========0 None. 0==========0 | Prep Work \ 0============0 None. 0======0 | Notes \ 0========0 None. 0=========0 | The Plan \ 0===========0 Go to 8-Ball's BombShop and get the Trashmaster. You have two and a half minutes to get the Trashmaster to the Turtle Head Fishing Co. in Callahan Point. The best route is to turn around and go through the underground railroad tunnel, then turn right when you go out the other end, go around the SupaSave! Store, and back onto the road. You should get there with about a minute to spare. Once inside the Turtle Head Fishing Co., drive to the blue circle, arm the bomb, get out, and run to one of the corners to watch the show. 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0 $30,000
And you have also completed the last of Toni Cipriani's missions. Now let's resume with Salvatore's missions..... /SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS\ 0SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS0 | >S2. "Cutting The Grass" (Salvatore Leone) | 0SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS0 \SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS/ 0=========0 | Overview \ 0===========0 Salvatore suspects that one of the bartenders over at Luigi's club might be talking to the Columbians about their activities. Salvatore wants Claude to follow this bartender, Curly Bob, to see if he is ratting them out. If he is, then he is to be killed. 0========0 | Weapons \ 0==========0 None. 0==========0 | Prep Work \ 0============0 Get a Taxi and take it with you to Leone's. 0======0 | Notes \ 0========0 None. 0=========0 | The Plan \ 0===========0 Normally, when you get to the club you will see a Taxi there meant for Curly Bob. When he gets in the taxi, you are supposed to stay your distance while following Curly Bob, by means of a Spookmeter, otherwise you will fail the mission if you got too close. By the way, you can't jack this particular Taxi which is why you have to provide your own. But you can simplify your mission tremendously by taking your Taxi and parking it behind the other Taxi making sure that your Taxi is nearest to the service tunnel and that you are parked in the street (if you park on the sidewalk Curly Bob will ignore your Taxi). When Curly Bob shows up, he will enter your Taxi instead of the one in front and all you have to do is drive him to Portland Harbor. No spooking to worry about. When you get to Portland Harbor, park in the blue circle. The following cutscene confirms Salvatore's suspicions. When the cutscene ends, take your Taxi and run over Curly Bob (be careful - he has a Shotgun) to end the mission. 0=======0

"Bomb Da Base (Acts I and II)" (Salvatore Leone) | 0SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS0 \SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS/ 0=========0 | Overview \ 0===========0 Salvatore wants Claude to blow up the ship that Curly led Claude to in the previous mission as a personal favor for him. If he succeeds, Claude will be a Made Man for the Leone family. Salvatore recommends that Claude sees 8-Ball for help in destroying the boat. 0========0 | Weapons \ 0==========0 Sniper Rifle (provided), Rocket Launcher (optional). 0==========0 | Prep Work \ 0============0 None. 0======0 | Notes \ 0========0 None. 0=========0 | The Plan \ 0===========0 When you get to 8-Ball's BombShop, he informs you that he needs $100,000 to cover expenses. At this point you should have close to that amount. If not you can do additional Taxi, Vigilante, and Firefighter runs to earn more money. Once you have the minimum amount, step into the blue circle again. Next, go to Portland Harbor and park in the blue circle. Go up the stairs to the top of the building north and across from the ship. You need to use the Sniper Rifle to take out all of the Columbian guards on the ship so 8-Ball can get inside. He won't go until you start shooting so you can scope things out. Start with the leftmost guard and work your way right. According to Jon Porter, you can make things easier for yourself if you use the Adrenaline Icon in the middle of the group of small trailers on the west side of the building. Another reader, Jim Plate, also suggested to me that you can block the entrance of the ramp with another car to slow down 8-Ball so you can gain
additional time to kill the Columbians. However, the Columbians will shoot at you and you will take damage as you flee toward your vantage point. Once you get the last guard, 8-Ball will get inside and you can watch his brand of fireworks to complete the mission. 0XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX0 | Early Explorer Bonus | 0XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX0 If you managed to get all 100 Hidden Packages to acquire the Rocket Launcher Weapon Icon for your hideouts you can make things easier still. Instead of the Sniper Rifle use the Rocket Launcher. Start at the bottom of the ramp and make your way from left to right. If you are fast enough you can clear the ship of Columbians before 8-Ball can make his way up to the deck. In addition, by going to the other side early, you should have a lot more money when you start this mission thus simplifying things further. 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0 $150,000. /SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS\ 0SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS0 | >S5.

"I'm proud of you my boy, you kicked the shit outta those grease balls." .....but he has a small job for Claude before celebrating..... "There is a car around the block from Luigi's club. The inside is covered in brains. We had to help some guy make up his mind and it proved a little messy. Take it to the crusher before the Cops find it." 0========0 | Weapons \ 0==========0 None. 0==========0 | Prep Work \ 0============0 None. 0======0
| Notes \ 0========0 None. 0=========0 | The Plan \ 0===========0 Go to the blip near Luigi's club. As you near the blip, you receive a message on your pager from Maria. The car is actually a trap meant for Claude and Maria wants you to meet her at the slip on the south side of the Callahan Bridge. Once you get there, Maria is near hysterics..... "Listen, Salvatore thinks that we're going behind his back, so he was offering you to the Cartel in order to make a deal. I couldn't let him do that, I mean the worst thing is, it's all my fault...because I told him, we were an item. Don't ask me why, I don't know. Look you're a marked man on Mafia turf and I've got to get out of here too. I've seen too much killing. Too much blood!" Jeez, after all of that work and now it's shot to shit. But Maria introduces Claude to an old friend of hers, Asuka. Asuka recommends that they get out of there before the Mafia finds out. Take the boat and drive it to the blue marker to end the mission. And Asuka leaves you with a few words..... "You'll need a place to lie low. There's a warehouse at the edge of Belleville that should suit your needs. Come back here to my Condo when you are ready, and we can have a little chat." After the mission is completed, head to your new Safehouse on Staunton Island and save your game. 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0 $20,000. This will complete Salvatore Leone's missions and open up Asuka Kasen's set of missions. When you enter a car, you will listen to a special news report. The Callahan Bridge has finally been repaired so you can now travel by car back to Portland Island. This will also open a section of the Porter Tunnel between Staunton Island and Portland Island. With these new roads open it is time to go over..... /==XX====XX====XX====XX====XX====X##***##X====XX====XX====XX====XX====XX==\ 0===XX====XX====XX====XX====XX====X##***##X====XX====XX====XX====XX====XX===0 | IV.

Rampages (Staunton Island) [RPGD] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ Listed below are the seven Rampages for Staunton Island and the strategies for each location: /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0===================================0 | [R7] - Destroy 15 Vehicles (M-16) | 0===================================0 \XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/ Locations: ********** [LBC-R7-A] - At the south end of the south side of Liberty Campus (south of the Police Bribe). ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: Drive up to the Icon, get the Icon, and drive over to
the Liberty Memorial Coliseum parking lot. Destroy all the cars there including your own. Then go over to the intersection at the northwest part of the parking lot. There you can get the rest of the cars you need to complete the Rampage. When the Police cars start coming, this will make things a little easier since they will converge on you and won't try to speed away when you shoot at them unlike the other cars. The Police Helicopter also counts as a vehicle so destroy it if you can. If you start a chain reaction of explosions, all the exploding cars count even if you didn't shoot directly at them. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ [FRS-R7-B] - At the northeast part of the Fort Staunton construction zone tucked in the inside part of the sharp angled turn. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: Get a car and drive up to the Icon. Get the Icon and destroy your car and the Cartel Cruiser west of the Icon's position. Go to the opening east of the Icon's position and shoot up the cars, and any Columbian that shoots at you, that appear on the road. Stay behind the fence, this will keep the pedestrians from taking whacks at you. The game should produce enough cars to complete the Rampage. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0======================================0 | [R8] - Explode 25 Yardies (Grenades) | 0======================================0 \XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/ Locations: ********** [BLP-R8-A] - In the alley behind the Belleville Park Fire Station. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: Grab the Icon and run to the Liberty Memorial Coliseum parking lot. The short wall there will keep any hostile Yardies at bay but will allow you to throw Grenades at them. This makes this Rampage easier. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ [BLP-R8-B] - In a cubbyhole in the south part of Liberty Campus just north of the Staunton Island Safehouse. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: The simplest way to do this is to run down the street, throw Grenades at any Yardies you see and run away from those who chase you, and hope that the game generates enough Yardies to finish the Rampage. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0===================================0 | [R9] - Torch 16 Yakuza (Molotovs) |
0===================================0 \XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/ Locations: ********** [NPT-R9-A] - At the tip of the building partway up the Newport Bridge just northeast of Lips 106. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: Run south down the street and torch the Yakuza you see. When you get to the intersection where City Hall is, stop. Stay here and torch the remaining Yakuza. Use your camera to target Yakuza behind you. Remember, stay far enough away from them when you nail them otherwise you may set yourself aflame. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ [NPT-R9-B] - Just south of 8-Ball's BombShop in Newport. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: Jump on the wall and go to the corner. Then throw or drop Molotovs at all the Yakuza you see. This vantage point makes the Rampage very easy. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0======================================0 | [R10] - Destroy 8 Vehicles (Shotgun) | 0======================================0 \XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/ Locations: ********** [BLP-R10-A] - At the southwest corner of the Main Park in Belleville Park. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: Get a car and go to the Icon. Get the Icon, get back into your car, and zip as fast as possible to the Multistory Carpark. Go up to the second level and get out. Shoot your car until flames come out and move to the nearest car, shoot it up until flames come out and move to the nearest car, and so forth. You should have one car left to destroy by the time you have destroyed all the cars on this level. Move up to the next level and destroy the first car you see to complete the Rampage. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ [BLP-R10-B] - At the northeast corner of the Main Park of Belleville Park. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: Same strategy except that since are closer to the Multistory Carpark from this position, you will have more time to work with. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0=================================================0
| [R11] - Annihilate 30 Yardies (Rocket Launcher) | 0=================================================0 \XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/ Locations: ********** [BDT-R11-A] - At the entrance of the church graveyard on the west side of Liberty Cathedral in Bedford Point. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: Get a car and drive to the Icon. Get the Icon and drive just south along the road to the set of stairs at the south side of the block. Drive up the stairs and get out. From here you can get a lot of Yardies quickly. If any manage to come up to assault you, get back into your car and run them over. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ [BDT-R11-B] - Tucked away by the stairs in front of Liberty Tree Offices in Bedford Point. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: Same strategy except that you have to drive north from your position to get to the set of stairs. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0============================================0 | [R12] - Pop 17 Yardie Heads (Sniper Rifle) | 0============================================0 \XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/ Locations: ********** [TRG-R12-A] - On the second floor of the AMCO HQ building in Torrington (use stairs to reach). ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: Get the Icon and go back down to street level. Stay behind the railings and shoot at the Yardies. Remember, only headshots count. The only matter to resolve is whether you are accurate and fast enough to complete the Rampage. The game always seems to generate enough to complete the Rampage so there should be no shortage of targets. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ [TRG-R12-B] - At the north side of the topmost level of Kenji's Casino in Torrington. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: Get the Rampage and jump down to the street in front of the main entrance. From here you can just stand here and pop their heads with no problem except for one. Since the Yardies and the Yakuza don't like each other, when a Yakuza Stinger drives by, the Yardies will chase and attack it making it harder to get your headshots.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0========================================0 | [R13] - Burn 25 Yakuza (Flame-Thrower) | 0========================================0 \XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/ Locations: ********** [BDT-R13-A] - Near the southeast entrance of Liberty Tree Offices above ground parking lot in Bedford Point. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: Drive up to the Icon, get the Icon, and drive over to the nearest street. Go around and flame all the Yakuza you see. They will never attack you so this Rampage is very easy to complete. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ [BDT-R13-B] - Tucked in the corner, on the west side, near the south entrance of Liberty Cathedral in Bedford Point. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: Same strategy, different part of Bedford Point. /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | IV.5. Unique Stunt Jumps (Staunton Island) [USJS] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ Listed below are the four Unique Stunt Jumps for Staunton Island: /XXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0===============0 | Newport (NPT) | 0===============0 \XXXXXXXXXXXXX/ [NPT-J9] - The ramp at the top of the Multistory Carpark (southwest end). Heading: North to South. Notes: You will need to move the car that is usually parked in the pathway so you can get enough speed to make the jump. [NPT-J10] - Directly underneath the west end of Callahan Bridge at the Industrial Park in Newport (use the gravel pile to jump across). Heading: North to South. Notes: Try not to go too fast otherwise you may bounce off the other end of the landing area and into the water. [NPT-J11] - On the median of the Newport Bridge east of Lips 106 (between the billboards). Heading: North to South. Notes: You have to drive into Fort Staunton and go south on Newport Bridge. When you reach the top of the bridge, you need to get on the median of the bridge. There is a small ramp that will allow you to get on the median. Zip straight ahead and be careful of the trees, they can mess up your approach if you're not careful. You don't have to
clear the bridge to get the game to recognize the Jump. Just smacking into the wall on the other side will suffice. /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0=====================0 | Bedford Point (BDT) | 0=====================0 \XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/ [BDT-J12] - Through the Tw@ Internet Cafe and up the stairs. Heading: East to West. Notes: Start from the corner in the east and align yourself with the ramp when you approach the street. /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | IV.6. "A Ride In The Park" [RIPR] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ Go into the Main Park in Belleville Park and near the north end by the basketball courts is a Landstalker. Entering it will trigger the vehicle mission "A Ride In The Park". Here you have two minutes to collect 12 checkpoints and you are given 10 seconds for each one you get. When you start, you will see a checkpoint off to your left (1). Go to the set of tracks on the other side of the building and line yourself with the platform the checkpoint is on. Carefully get on the platform and then collect the checkpoint. Then rush to the wall on the west side of the park and head south scraping the right side of the Landstalker against the wall in the process. Ahead of you is a cluster of three checkpoints (2,3,4). Get the first one ahead of you (2) then angle slightly left to get (3). Stop and let the vehicle settle against the wall then back up to get (4). Go south to the end of the park and collect (5) then head back north to the small bridge and approach from the west side. Here there are a cluster of three checkpoints (6,7,8). Get the one on the west incline (6), then the one under the bridge (7), then line yourself with the next checkpoint and climb up the incline get it (8). From there head northeast to the obelisk and get the checkpoint on the outside edge of it (9) then go up the stairs and get (10). Back straight out and get the checkpoint at the toilet block (11). Move forward and head north to the lake. The last checkpoint is on the island and you will see an incline on the east side of the island. Climb it to get the last checkpoint (12) to complete the vehicle mission and get $30,000 for your efforts. /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | IV.7. "Multistorey Mayhem" [MLYM] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ This particular vehicle mission takes place within the confines of the Multistory Carpark in Newport. The setup is a little unusual in that you have
to take a Stallion, stop just outside of one of the entrances, get out then get back in again. There is usually one parked just inside the south entrance of the Carpark. Get it, go out the south entrance, turn around so you are just outside the south entrance, get out then get in again. When you start you have two minutes to get twenty checkpoints. Unlike the other vehicle missions the timer starts when the mission does and you have twenty seconds to start plus five seconds for each checkpoint nabbed. The first four are on the ground level. (1) is just ahead of you then turn left until you see (2) which is between the entrances (a commonly missed checkpoint) then turn right until you see (3) then whip left to get (4) then go up the ramp to the second level. When you get up to the second level, get (5) which is ahead of you but a little to the left then turn around and get (6) which is in a car (smack the car to move it out of the way when you get the checkpoint) then angle left to get (7) and straighten out to get (8) then turn right and go up the ramp. When you get up to level three, spin left to get the checkpoint which is sitting by the ramp (9) (another commonly missed checkpoint) then turn around and go along the right wall to get (10) and (11) (be careful when approaching the wall - there seems to be an invisible obstacle near where the ramp is). When you get (12), back up and turn right to go up the ramp. After getting up to level four, get the one ahead and off to the right (13) then turn right to get (14) then whip left to get (15) then get the checkpoint near the ramp before going up (16). After getting up to level five, turn left to get the checkpoint by the ramp (17) then turn around and go to the checkpoint along the right wall (18) then turn left to get (19) then go along the wall and jump off the ramp to get the last checkpoint suspended in the air (20). When you get the last checkpoint, you will get $30,000. /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | IV.8. Taxi Mission [TXMS] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ Whenever you enter a Taxi, you have the option of doing the Taxi Mission by pressing Activate Vehicle Mission. The mission comprises of picking up fares and driving them to their destination a la Sega's "Crazy Taxi". The more fares you pick up in one run, the more money you make. In earlier versions of this guide I said that the easiest place to do this mission was in Portland. However, while playing around on the Xbox version, I found that doing it on Staunton Island was easier especially when using the Taxi Trick which allows you to use another vehicle for a Taxi (Official U.S. PlayStation Magazine Demo Disc (Issue 67): Taxi Trick by DeMarlo King.) First, get a Taxi and go to The Condos in Newport. There you will see a Yakuza Stinger. Park close to the Stinger, exit the Taxi, and get into the Stinger to see if it is unlocked. If it is unlocked, reenter the Taxi. Press and HOLD the Activate Vehicle Mission button. While holding the Activate Vehicle Mission button, exit your Taxi and enter the other car. On the PS2, the Activate Vehicle Mission is usually the R3 button (except on one
setup) and Right Analog Stick is also the Look Around stick so it will be disorienting trying to get to the other car. Once you get close inside (wait until before it begins), Mission will begin
enough to the other car, press Enter Vehicle and, once you close the car door otherwise the mission will end release the Activate Vehicle Mission button. Now the Taxi inside the new car.
This trick also works on the Xbox version and is much easier to do since the X button is the Activate Vehicle Mission button so there is no disorientation while trying to get into the other vehicle. And, thanks to one of my regular readers, Glen T. Winstein, this also works on the PC version: "The taxi trick works for PC: hold Caps Lock to initiate activation of the mission, hit F to exit the taxi, maneuver Al to whatever other vehicle, hit F to enter it, then release Caps Lock." I used the Stinger because it handles a lot better at high speed than the Banshee (which I was using in earlier versions of the guide when in Portland). The only thing to look out for is when you are told to go the Fort Staunton Construction Site. While getting your customer to it, you will be shot at by Columbians so you have to make sure that they can't get into position to pull you out (and end your mission). Strangely enough, half the time I drop off a customer there my next fare tends to be one of the Columbians trying to shoot me. Even though Staunton Island is bigger than Portland Island, the Stinger helps you to make quick work of the Taxi Mission (the flatter terrain helps also). When you get 100 fares total (not necessarily in one run), you will unlock the Borgnine Taxi at Borgnine Taxis which is next door to HEAD Radio in Harwood (Portland Island) and inch closer to 100% Completion. /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | IV.9. Vigilante and Firetruck Missions (Staunton Island) [FTSI] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ Don't forget to do the Firetruck As before, only the first twenty additional Police Bribes and the Firefighter Mission count toward all of your Safehouses.
and Vigilante Missions for Staunton Island. kills in the Vigilante Mission count toward first twenty fires put out during the getting the Flame-Thrower Weapon Icon for
A Firetruck can be found at the Belleville Park Fire Station and a Police Car can be found at the Torrington Police Station. /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | IV.10. "Casino Calamity" (Toyz Van) [CSCL] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ In a parking lot just northwest of Kenji's Casino is another Toyz Van. Entering it will trigger the Toyz Van Mission "Casino Calamity". Just like "Diablo Destruction" and "Mafia Massacre", you have to use remote controlled cars to destroy gang vehicles. In this mission, you have to destroy as many
Yakuza Stingers as you can in two minutes. With all of the side stuff done on Staunton Island let's go back to the Main Story Missions starting with..... /AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA\ 0AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA0 | IV.11. Asuka Kasen [SKSN] | 0AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA0 \AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA/ Asuka Kasen is a member of the Yakuza, the infamous Japanese crime syndicate. She has a brother, Kenji who is also a member. She will provide Claude with new objectives as he deals with the Mafia betrayal. She has eight missions total and five of them can be done from the "A" at Asuka's Condo. The last three will be done at another location later in the game. It is very important to note that you MUST do the mission "Two-Faced Tanner" (Asuka Kasen) before the mission "Grand Theft Aero" (Donald Love). If you do "Grand Theft Aero" (Donald Love" first then you will NOT be able to do "Two-Faced Tanner" (Asuka Kasen) and you will lose out on 100% Completion. /AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA\ 0AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA0 | >A1. "Sayonara Salvatore" (Asuka Kasen) | 0AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA0 \AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA/ 0=========0 | Overview \ 0===========0 Before Asuka can give you work with the Yakuza, Claude must prove to them that his Mafia ties are completely broken. Asuka tells Claude to kill Salvatore Leone who is currently at the Sex Club 7 in the Red Light District. In the meantime, Asuka and Maria will catch up on old times..... Maria: "Oh...Asuka, you've got a massager." Asuka: "That's not a massager." [Note: I wonder if Asuka got this "massager" in San Andreas :-)] 0========0 | Weapons \ 0==========0 Sniper Rifle. 0==========0 | Prep Work \ 0============0 None. 0======0 | Notes \ 0========0
I have some new information by Vicktor Volpe. 0=========0 | The Plan \ 0===========0 You have three hours to get in position to take out Salvatore. Grab the Yakuza Stinger that is always parked by the condo and zip over to Red Light District as fast as possible. However, according to Vicktor Volpe, you can also take a Speeder and head to the small dock near Callahan Bridge. Then head toward the road and jack a vehicle so you can proceed to Red Light District. The absolute best place to take out Salvatore is where RLD-H17 was (the rooftop across from Sex Club 7). From there you can use the Sniper Rifle on Salvatore when he leaves the club. Once you waste him, the mission is complete. 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0 $25,000. In addition, the Mafia will be hostile to you so it will be very dangerous to enter the St. Marks neighborhood (because they will now start carrying Shotguns which are extremely powerful and will kill you quickly). Also, you will be paged by King Courtney, leader of the Yardies. I will do his missions later in the guide. Finally, the BF Injection that Joey Leone was working on when doing his missions will appear at Misty's Building in Hepburn Heights in the late evening hours. Grab and save it at your Staunton Island garage for later when you open up Shoreside Vale (so you can take it to the Suburban Import Export Garage). /AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA\ 0AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA0 | >A2. "Under Surveillance" (Asuka Kasen) | 0AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA0 \AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA/ 0=========0 | Overview \ 0===========0 Although pleased at Salvatore's death, Asuka is unhappy with the Mafia looking out for Claude. Their lookout posts in Staunton Island are causing the Yakuza problems and Asuka orders Claude to take out these spies and end the vendetta. She also introduces Claude to Kenji, her brother, who would like to meet him later at his casino. As mentioned has changed. surveillance changed, the 0========0
earlier, the dialogue for this cutscene in the Xbox version She mentions that the federal agents are doing the instead of the Mafia. However, while the spoken dialogue was subtitles were not thus making the cutscene a little awkward.
| Weapons \ 0==========0 Sniper Rifle, Grenades, Rocket Launcher (optional). 0==========0 | Prep Work \ 0============0 None. 0======0 | Notes \ 0========0 None. 0=========0 | The Plan \ 0===========0 There are three lookout posts on Staunton Island and you have six and a half minutes to destroy them all but this mission isn't very hard. The first post is on the small island in the lake at the Main Park. Take the Yakuza Stinger and drive up to the park's wall and jump on top of the car. Use the Sniper Rifle to take out the two lookouts there. The second post is a van sitting not too far from Liberty Tree offices in Bedford Point. Go to the east side of the block where they are at, go into the narrow alley (where there is a Police Bribe), and get behind the van. Drop a Grenade and run back the way you came. The Grenade will take care of the van before it can do any harm to you. The last lookout post is the office building across from Kenji's Casino in Torrington. There are a total of six spies on the side of the building. Get up to the top of Kenji's Casino, using the stairs at the entrance, to get at them. Use the nearby helicopter as cover as you kill them. Once you have killed the last Mafia goon, the mission will be successfully completed. 0XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX0 | Early Explorer Bonus | 0XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX0 If you managed to get all of the Hidden Packages to get the Rocket Launcher Weapon Icon you can use this weapon instead. For the first post, shoot the tree on the island to cause splash damage to kill the goons. For the second post, stay some distance and shoot the van to destroy it. For the third post, shoot the side of the building a few times to kill the remaining goons to complete the mission. 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0
$15,000. And you have opened up the missions for..... /KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK\ 0KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK0 | IV.12. Kenji Kasen [KJKS] | 0KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK0 \KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK/ Kenji Kasen is the brother of Asuka Kasen and he runs Kenji's Casino in Torrington. He has five missions total and can be found at the "K" at his casino. It is very important to note that if you want to get 100% Completion you MUST do all of Kenji's missions before you do "Waka-Gashira Wipeout" (Donald Love) otherwise you will not be able to do his missions and you will be screwed out of 100% Completion. This is the reason I'm doing Kenji's missions now. /KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK\ 0KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK0 | >K1.

Take the Police Car you now have and take it to 8-Ball's BombShop (near the Pay 'N' Spray in Newport) to rig it with a bomb.
Then go the Torrington Police Vehicle which is why you need the Police brutality going on head for the other Police Car
Station. The gate will only open for a Police one. Park the car in the blue circle (note inside the HQ), arm the bomb, get out, and parked nearby.
By the time you get inside the Police Car, the bomb will have exploded and you will get a 3-Star Wanted Rating. Pick up the Yakuza and drive to the other gate leading into the tunnel. The tunnel has a Police Bribe so that will definitely help. Hang left at the end of the tunnel and once you get back to the street, head for your Safehouse and use the Police Bribes there to get rid of your Wanted Rating. Once you have done that, head over to the Dojo to complete your mission. 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0 $30,000. /KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK\ 0KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK0 | >K2.

There are three cars to be taken: a Stinger in the above ground parking lot at Liberty Tree Offices, a Cheetah in the parking lot of Carson General Hospital, and a Infernus parked at the parking lot to Liberty Memorial Coliseum. In addition, this must be done within six minutes and they have to be presented in mint condition. The dropoff point is right next door to the Pay 'N' Spray in Newport. If you smash up the car, you can quickly repair it before deposit. The best way to do this is to take your fast car and get the Stinger first then, after depositing that, take the Blista in the nearby garage and go after the Cheetah. After depositing the Cheetah, use the Blista again and get the Infernus. After depositing the Infernus, your mission is complete. 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0 $25,000. /KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK\ 0KKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK0 | >K3.

Put the Firetruck in at an angle so it points northeast and the front and rear of the Firetruck touch the walls. Get out and use the Grenades on the open window which will flush them out. Then quickly switch to the AK-47 and kill the two guards by the garage door. At this point the getaway car is trying to push through the Firetruck. If you put the Firetruck straight across then they will be able to push through before you can destroy them. By putting the Firetruck in the way at an angle they cannot push through. As they are trying to push through, aim at the car with the AK-47 and shoot it up to destroy it.

0=========0 | Overview \ 0===========0 A friend of Ray's, Phil Cassidy, needs some help after some Columbians roughed him up. Claude is to provide assistance for Phil. 0========0 | Weapons \ 0==========0 AK-47, Rocket Launcher (optional). 0==========0 | Prep Work \ 0============0 Get a regular vehicle prior to taking the mission. Get some additional ammo for the AK-47 from the Newport Ammu-Nation. 0======0 | Notes \ 0========0 None. 0=========0 | The Plan \ 0===========0 Go over to Phil Cassidy's Army Surplus in Rockford. Notice the blue circle. Do NOT touch it yet. Drive past it on the left then turn around, make sure that the vehicle is pointed north or northwest, then drive into the blue circle. You will then automatically get out and talk to Phil. It is important to do it this way for reasons I will explain next. If you get out and walk into the blue circle, your vehicle will disappear. Why would you need a vehicle? Simple, because the Columbians are sneaky bastards and you need something to keep them at bay. After talking to Phil, take your vehicle and cover the pathway near where RFD-H34 was located. After getting out of the vehicle, you will notice that there are M-16, Uz-I, and Shotgun Weapon Icons on the ground near Phil and a Molotov and a Rocket Launcher Weapon Icon on top of the nearby container (although I have yet to figure out how to get up there to get those). There is also a Body Armor Icon between the container crates. Plus a Rhino tank (which you can't enter). However, I still prefer to use the AK-47 for the duration of this mission. Now, head back to the main gate to deal with the Columbians who arrive in four Cartel Cruisers. As you deal with them, a couple of Columbians will sneak through the back way. Of course, the vehicle you placed in the pathway will keep them from doing any damage (this is what I meant by them being sneaky bastards). Use the AK-47 on the Columbians as they try to enter. Those that manage to get past you Phil will take care of with his M-16. Once you have dealt with all of them, blow up the vehicle to take care of the remaining goons trying to enter.
After killing all of the Columbians, talk to Phil. This will end your mission successfully. 0XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX0 | Early Explorer Bonus | 0XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX0 If you have the Rocket Launcher Weapon Icon at your Safehouses, you can just use the Rocket Launcher instead of the AK-47. 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0 $10,000. In addition, you can now buy the following weapons here at Phil Cassidy's Army Surplus (Rockford): >>Shotgun [Cost: $1,500]. >>M-16 [Cost: $5,000]. >>Rocket Launcher [Cost: $25,000]. You can also get the OL Barracks from here anytime for the Emergency Vehicle Crane. Then there's the matter of the nearby Rhino which leads into the next chapter..... /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | IV.14. Acquiring the Rhino (The Safe Method) [AQRS] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ I've had a couple of readers (Nick R., Magnamerik) state to me that you can actually acquire the Rhino left over at the end of the previous mission. However, the tank is locked and you cannot knock the door off. So how do you take it? First off you need to have the Infinite Run feature gained from the Ambulance Mission. Second, you will also need room in your Staunton Island Safehouse garage for the Rhino. What you need to do is get behind the Rhino and push it to your Safehouse. That's right, push the tank by running behind it (this is why you need to Infinite Run feature). Believe it or not, the tank is not that hard to push forward. That is, as long as it is on flat ground. Getting it up hills is going to be the tough part. From Phil Cassidy's Army Surplus, push the Rhino up to Staunton Loop (North) and turn it west toward Liberty Memorial Coliseum. When you reach the three-way intersection, turn the Rhino south and push it all the way to the three-way intersection at the south end of the road. Stay in the road and in a single lane as you make your way there. When you get to the south end of the road, turn the tank east and start
pushing it up the hill. This is the hardest part of the journey. When the tank stops moving up then you need to zig-zag it up the hill. To zig-zag you need to get on the back right rear of the tank and push it so the Rhino angles left a little. Then move over to the left rear of the tank and push that corner until the Rhino angles right a little. Keep repeating this pattern and you will slowly get the tank up the hill. Once you are at the signal lights at the top of the hill, turn the Rhino right and then push it toward the entrance of your Safehouse area. Once you get the tank down to the garage area, push it toward the door so you can get it to open (and stay open). Push the tank into your garage and let the door close. When you open the door again you should hear the low rumblings of your new Rhino and the tank door will now be unlocked so you can enter and use it. And all without having to face the soldiers. Although the hill near the hospital is shorter than the hill near your Safehouse it is NOT recommended you go that way. When you go up the main road through the Fort Staunton area you will be attacked by the Columbians. During one attempt I had no less than TEN Columbians suddenly spawn around me and shredded me in a matter of seconds. Not good. If you do not have the patience to do this method then you can still get the tank the old fashioned way which I will go over in the Shoreside Vale section of the guide. /RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR\ 0RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR0 | >R3. "Evidence Dash" (Ray Machowski) | 0RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR0 \RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR/ 0=========0 | Overview \ 0===========0 When Claude arrives at the toilet block, Ray gives him his next assignment while taking care of more personal matters..... "I know a real important man in town, a soft touch, with shall we say, exotic tastes and the money to indulge them. He's involved in legal matter and the prosecution has some rather embarrassing photos of him at a morgue party or something. The evidence is being driven across town. You are going to have to ram that car and collect each little bit of evidence as it falls out. When you've got it all, leave it in the car and torch it." 0========0 | Weapons \ 0==========0 Grenades. 0==========0 | Prep Work \ 0============0 Do the Vigilante Mission to gain Police Bribes for your Safehouses. Get a Firetruck and take it with you to the Main Park.
0======0 | Notes \ 0========0 Got a very good tip from Leo. 0=========0 | The Plan \ 0===========0 The evidence is in a Bobcat and traveling around Staunton Island. There are six evidence packets to collect and you have to hit the Bobcat to get one of them. You cannot hit the Bobcat six times to get all of the packets to fall out then collect them. You have to hit the truck, get the packet, and chase the truck so you can hit it again and repeat the process. After hitting it the first time, you will attain a 2-Star Wanted Rating so now you have to deal with the Cops too. But, according to Leo, you can go back to your Safehouse and use the Police Bribes to get rid of the Wanted Rating. In addition, when you hit the Bobcat again you will NOT regain the Wanted Rating so the mission becomes much easier since you no longer have to deal with the Cops. Once you have all six packets, destroy the Firetruck and any manner you like (except putting it in the water) to complete the mission. 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0 $10,000. And you have now opened up Donald Love's set of missions. I will now start with his before finishing up with everybody else's.

Don't go in yet. Get out and switch to your Sniper Rifle. You will see six Columbians on patrol and you can see four of them through the gate. Snipe them through the gate then get back into your Cruiser and drive it in a little bit. Get back out and snipe the remaining two Columbians and switch to your AK-47. The Old Oriental Gentleman is randomly generated in the four closed garages and there is a Columbian in each one that you have to kill with your AK-47. Once you rescue the Old Oriental Gentleman, get into your Cruiser, wait for the old man to follow, and drive back to Love Media to complete the mission. 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0 $40,000. /DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD\ 0DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD0 | >D2.

"Nothing drives down real estate prices like a good old fashioned gang war, apart from an outbreak of plague......but that might be going too far in this case. I noticed that the Yakuzas and the Columbians are far from friends. Let's capitalize on this business opportunity. I want you to kill the Yakuza Waka-gashira. Kenji Kasen. Kenji is attending a meeting at the top of the multi-story carpark in Newport. Get a Cartel gangcar and eliminate him! The Yakuza must blame the Cartel for this declaration of war." 0========0 | Weapons \ 0==========0 Rocket Launcher (optional), Grenades (optional). 0==========0 | Prep Work \ 0============0 **IMPORTANT: If you still haven't done all of Kenji's missions do so now before doing this assignment otherwise you risk being screwed out of getting 100% Completion. Use the Cartel Cruiser from the last mission and buy some Rocket Launchers from Phil Cassidy's Army Surplus if you don't already have the Rocket Launcher Weapon Icon at your Safehouses. 0======0 | Notes \ 0========0 This is one of the biggest lessons that Donald learned from Avery Carrington when Tommy Vercetti did "Two Bit Hit" (Avery Carrington) in Vice City..... "Now, nothing brings down real estate prices quicker than a good old-fashioned gang war 'cept maybe a disaster, like a biblical plague or something, but, that may be going too far in this case. You getting this down, you four-eyed prick?" I also came up with a second, slightly different, method of completing this mission. 0=========0 | The Plan \ 0===========0 Take the Cartel Cruiser and drive into the Multistory Carpark. Stop when you are on the level below Kenji. Park the Cartel Cruiser at one end of the floor and get out. From a safe distance aim your Rocket Launcher upwards at the level he is on. Fire several shots around that area to be sure you got him. It should be noted that you won't know for sure if you got him until you go back into the Cartel Cruiser. Once you get back inside it should give you the "Kenji is fender meat! Get out of Newport and dump the car!" message. If not, get back out and try again. If you have trouble with the Rocket Launcher method than I have another,
safer, method. You do the exact same approach except, instead of using the Rocket Launcher, you use Grenades. After parking the Cartel Cruiser, get out and take one of the other vehicles on the garage floor. Drive the vehicle and park it underneath where Kenji is. Get out and drop a Grenade by the vehicle. Run away and wait for the explosion. Once the Grenade explodes it should set the car on fire. When the car explodes it should be powerful enough to start a chain reaction, with Kenji's limos, on the floor above. The chain of explosions should be enough to kill Kenji. Head back to the Cartel Cruiser to see if you get the "Kenji is fender meat" message. If not, get back out and repeat the process until you do kill him. Regardless of method you will get a 3-Star Wanted Rating when you kill Kenji. When you get back into your Cruiser, you are instructed to get out of Newport and dump the truck. Head back toward your Safehouse. As you near your Safehouse, you will enter Belleville Park and you can then get out of the vehicle to successfully end the mission. 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0 $30,000. /DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD\ 0DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD0 | >D3.

| The Plan \ 0===========0 You have two minutes to get into position. Drive as fast as you can to The Condos, go down to the piers, and get a Speeder. Get to the blip and follow the plane. When the clock reaches zero, the plane will start dropping packages into the water. The plane will drop a total of six packages into the water. For each package you collect, your Wanted Rating will increase by one star until you reach the current maximum of 5-Stars. When you get the last package, get to one of the piers and get out. This is also an excellent opportunity to acquire an FBI Car for the Emergency Vehicle Crane. Get a Yakuza Stinger and drive underneath the Newport Bridge and get out. This will help shield you from the helicopter. When a FBI Car shows up, wait for it to stop, and as the occupants exit the car, run away as fast as you can (because they pack some serious heat) using the pillars as cover, and turn around and go back. The car should still be there but the FBI agents are now gone (this trick also works in GTA: Vice City). Get the FBI Car and go to the nearby Pay 'N' Spray to get rid of the Wanted Ratings. The FBI Car is the only Police Vehicle you can use with a Pay 'N' Spray. Take the FBI Car to the Crane at Portland Island and then get another car and go back to Love Media to end the mission. 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0 $10,000. In addition, a news report will flash on the radio. The broken Shoreside Lift Bridge has been fixed and now you can go by car to Shoreside Vale. Go back to your garage and get the BF Injection and go to the Suburban Import Export Garage. If you weren't able to get Package SSV-H75 prior to this mission (if you went to the other side early), this is the chance to get it. Take the BF Injection and drive onto the drawbridge. Climb onto the dune buggy and then onto the median. When the drawbridge rises, get SSV-H75 to take one step closer to finishing collecting the Hidden Packages. As you enter Shoreside Vale, you will receive a message on your pager telling you to go to the phone in Wichita Gardens. This opens up D-Ice's set of missions but I will do those later. After depositing the BF Injection at the Suburban Import Export Garage in Pike Creek, get another car and head to your Wichita Gardens Safehouse to save your game.

Rampages (Shoreside Vale) [RPGV] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ Listed below are the remaining seven Rampages for Shoreside Vale and the strategies for each location: /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0===========================================0 | [R14] - Fry 20 Columbians (Flame-Thrower) | 0===========================================0 \XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/ Locations: ********** [CDG-R14-A] - Behind the car garage of the gray house two houses west of the Columbian Mansion at The Homes in Cedar Grove. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: PS2 Version *********** Use a Cartel Cruiser and drive to the Rampage Icon. After getting the icon, quickly drive over to the Columbian Mansion. Go inside the gate and drive to the southwest corner, get out, and walk right up against the fence. You can shoot flames through the fences and walls so the fence will protect you from the nasty Columbians. Start by sweeping left for a couple of seconds and then sweep right for a couple of seconds and repeat pattern until rampage is completed. This tactic gave me a more consistent success rate. I tried going behind the fences to the houses next door to the Rampage Icon but I found that the game did not generate as many targets for me to get rid of and I would always fail. I found that by going to the Mansion, the game would generate more targets. Plus they don't know I'm there even as I roast them. Xbox Version ************ The above tactic doesn't work in the Xbox version because it never seems to generate enough Columbians near the Columbian Mansion for it to be successful. Here, just walk to the sidewalk but hang just behind the short wall near the large hedge. You will receive some damage from the Columbians but the game will generate enough for you to successfully complete the Rampage. And they will run up to you making it easy to flame them. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ [PKC-R14-B] - Behind the wall in front of The Fudge Packing Corp. in Pike
Creek. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: Get the Icon and go to the northeast corner where the road bends and stand behind the wall. Sweep left and right to get your targets. If you need to get more targets, move from behind the wall and lure some Columbians to your position and duck behind the wall again. Not too hard. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0================================0 | [R15] - Behead 20 Hoods (M-16) | 0================================0 \XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/ Locations: ********** [WCG-R15-A] - Behind the Squid sign in the northeast corner of The Projects at Wichita Gardens. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: Use a car to get up to the Rampage. When you start, get back into the car and drive off and back onto the street. Go into the parking lot and turn right then stop at the Adrenaline Icon (across the street from the Stalkers sign). Grab it, walk about halfway to the street, and start shooting at the Hoods. Their shirt color, red or purple, makes no difference. Remember, only headshots count for kills. But with you on an adrenaline high (everything slows down), This shouldn't be too hard. Aim at their heads and take very short controlled bursts. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ [CDG-R15-B] - Behind the "Gasoline. For youth on the move" sign on the west hairpin turn on Cedar Road. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: Get the Icon, get between the signs, go to the railing, and start shooting. For some reason, the Hoods don't know you are there even as you take them out so they don't shoot at you. This makes this Rampage easier. Even better, some of the Hoods will walk directly in front of you making for easy point blank shots. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0=============================================0 | [R16] - Behead 15 Columbians (Sniper Rifle) | 0=============================================0 \XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/ Locations: ********** [PKC-R16-A] - Behind the white crate near PKC-J15 southeast of the
Undercover Storage Company in Pike Creek. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: Get a car and drive to the Icon. Get the Rampage Icon, get back into your car, drive up the ramp and fall down to the street below. It is a long way down and hopefully you will be able to land on your wheels. If you do and maintain control, quickly make your way to the Burke Supply Co. just south of your position. Get to the corner edge of the building and get out. Aim south at the street to claim your targets. The small wall will keep the Columbians from getting any closer but will allow you to make headshots. Many of them will cluster in one place trying to get to you but instead will allow you to get a lot of targets quickly. The Columbians will take off some armor but if you are good with your aim this Rampage shouldn't be too bad. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ [PKC-R16-B] - On the end of the long building behind the Pike Creek Police Station (southeast corner). ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: Same strategy as before except that you want to place a car just before the small ramp below where the Icon is. Run back up to the Icon, get it, jump down, get into your vehicle, drive up the ramp, and jump into the street. Then go the Burke Supply Co. and take out the Columbians. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0=====================================0 | [R17] - Splatter 20 Hoods (Shotgun) | 0=====================================0 \XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/ Locations: ********** [WCG-R17-A] - On top of one of the car garages by the northeast apartment building for The Projects in Wichita Gardens (jump from the main bridge to reach). ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: Get the Icon and jump back down to ground level. Get into the Kuruma that is parked nearby and quickly drive east and to the main road. Get out on the east side of the road and get out. Go south and shoot the Hoods as they appear. If you try to do the Rampage near where you got it, you may be swarmed by lots of Hoods. They generate on both sides of the narrow side road and all the Hoods from both sides of the road will quickly converge on your position and they will take off your armor and health quickly. The main road to the east is much wider so you can work on one side of the road and usually not attract the attention of the Hoods on the other side. This will make things manageable. Any Hoods that shoot at you will be the ones far away from you and they will be running toward
you. But since they are far from you, they can't really hurt you because their guns (Pistol, Uz-I) are not good from long range and you can knock them down before they can do any damage. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ [FIA-R17-B] - Behind the Sumo sign at the intersection of the main road and the road leading to Francis International Airport. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: Go up the main road and shoot the Hoods as they generate. The wide main road will allow you to work one side of the road without attracting the attention of the Hoods across the street. They will usually generate in groups and the powerful Shotgun will make quick work of all the Hoods you target. A pretty easy Rampage. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0===============================================0 | [R18] - Destroy 15 Vehicles (Rocket Launcher) | 0===============================================0 \XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/ Locations: ********** [PKC-R18-A] - On top of the Turtle Head Fishing Co. (Shoreside Vale) near the top of the stairs. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: Just stay on top of the roof and shoot the cars from your position. Also try to kill the pedestrians to attract Police cars. If you get a 3-Star Wanted Rating, the Police Helicopter also counts as a vehicle. The only issue is if the game will generate enough targets for you to destroy within the two minutes. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ [FIA-R18-B] - Behind the Badfellas sign just before the main road, leading from Francis International Airport, turns north into Pike Creek. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: Get a vehicle and drive to the Icon. Position your car so you can see the Airport Parking lot. Get out, get the Icon, and get back in again. Drive toward the Airport Parking lot but at the same time go east. Get out when you get to a point where you can see the entire parking lot. There are about nine cars in the lot and you can get them quickly. Walk away from your car and destroy it. Now you only have five cars to get and just walk up to the main road. However, there are pedestrians around and you will usually kill some when you destroy cars. Some of them may attack you as you try to complete your objectives. Just focus on the cars and you will be OK.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0================================================0 | [R19] - Drive-by and Destroy 7 Vehicles (Uz-I) | 0================================================0 \XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/ Locations: ********** [PKC-R19-A] - At the guard gate for Punk Noodles across the street east of the Turtle Head Fishing Co. (Shoreside Vale) in Pike Creek. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: Get a fast sports car, like a Banshee, and drive to the Rampage Icon. Get the Icon and then drive as fast as you can to the Airport Parking lot. There you have plenty of cars you can quickly drive-by and destroy without any problems whatsoever. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ [CCD-R19-B] - Behind the large rock on the left side of the road loop near the Cochrane Dam Power House at Cochrane Dam. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: Same as before but you will have less time to work with because you will have to drive a longer distance to get to the Airport Parking lot but you should still be able to destroy the necessary number of cars within the time limit. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0==============================================0 | [R20] - Splatter 20 Columbians (Any Vehicle) | 0==============================================0 \XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/ Locations: ********** [FIA-R20-A] - Behind the Fat Burger Kid sign directly across the street from the East Airport Entrance to Francis International Airport (just north of the Francis International Airport Subway Entrance). ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: Get the Firetruck from the Francis International Airport Fire Station and drive to the Rampage Icon. Get the Icon and use the Firetruck to run over the Columbians. The Firetruck should withstand their gunfire long enough to survive the Rampage. When you start, drive under the main bridge and go back to the main road and enter near the Sumo sign. The reason for this is that the road on front of the airport terminal entrance is narrow and the Columbians will shoot you from the other side of the road seriously damaging your vehicle. By doing this, you will only have to deal with the ones in front of you limiting their damage potential. Drive up the main road and kill the
necessary Columbians to succeed. If you have the Bulletproof Patriot earned from the mission "Marked Man" (Ray Machowski) then this Rampage becomes easier since they cannot damage the vehicle with gunfire. Thanks to Christopher Mora for that suggestion. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ [PKC-R20-B] - In the grassy area across the street and south of the Burke Supply Co. (almost directly across from where the Burke company and Hope Medical College meet). ----------------------------------------------------------------------------Notes: The only difference here is that you drive down the main road toward the airport. Otherwise the same strategy applies. If you have the Bulletproof Patriot earned from the mission "Marked Man" (Ray Machowski) then this Rampage becomes easier since they cannot damage the vehicle with gunfire. Thanks to Christopher Mora for that suggestion. After successful completion of the last Rampage you will earn your million dollar bonus and take one more step toward 100% Completion. /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | V.5. Unique Stunt Jumps (Shoreside Vale) [USJV] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ Listed below are the remaining eight Unique Stunt Jumps that are found on Shoreside Vale: /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0====================0 | Cochrane Dam (CCD) | 0====================0 \XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/ [CCD-J13] - The embankment at the outer edge of the hairpin turn just west of the Cochrane Dam entrance. Heading: East to West. Notes: Start at the 90-degree turn, just east of the Cochrane Dam entrance (where the road turns north toward the Upstate Tunnel entrance), point west, and go. According to John E. Schneider you can also start at the Wichita Tunnel and approach the jump from the southeast. /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0==================0 | Pike Creek (PKC) | 0==================0 \XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/ [PKC-J14] - The ramp on the east side of the Undercover Storage Company. Heading: West to East. Notes: You must land in the enclosed area in the southeast corner
of the The Fudge Packing Corp. to succeed (also where CCD-H81 is located). [PKC-J15] - The ramp on the southeast side of the Undercover Storage Company where PKC-R16-A is located Heading: North to South. Notes: You must land on top of the south building behind the Pike Creek Police Station (where PKC-R16-B is located) to succeed. /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0=======================0 | Wichita Gardens (WCG) | 0=======================0 \XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/ [WCG-J16] - The broken bridge where WCG-H91 is located. Heading: South to North. Notes: You need to land in the street to get credit for the Jump. /XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX\ 0=====================================0 | Francis International Airport (FIA) | 0=====================================0 \XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX/ [FIA-J17] - The metal ramp by one of the Rockstar planes in the Plane Parking Area (northeast of the Police Bribe). Heading: Est to West. Notes: At the West Airport Entrance find the door that has the "Terminal A" sign on it. Just to the north of it there is a metal ramp. Go to the ramp and look west. You should see a large plane ahead of you. There is also a metal ramp near the front of the plane. This is the ramp you use for the Jump. [FIA-J18] - The left concrete ramp south of the north McAdams Airways hangar west of the Plane Parking Area. Heading: South to North. Notes: The hangar you must jump over is directly west of FIA-J17. You can't touch the hangar so you will need to go to the runway to get enough speed to clear the building and get credit for the jump. [FIA-J19] - The concrete ramps south of the Plane Parking Area and at the west end of the Secondary Runway. Heading: West to East. Notes: When you complete FIA-J17 head directly south. You should run into a group of helicopters. To the west of them is a hangar. You have to jump the hangar with the ramps to the west of the building. You can't touch the hangar here with the car either so you will need some distance to make the jump. You can hit the helicopters at the end and still get credit for the jump. [FIA-J20] - The concrete ramps east of FIA-J19. Heading: West to East. Notes: Get on the runway and start by the concrete ramps for FIA-J19. Then line yourself with the ramps for FIA-J20 to clear the hangar.
After completion of the last Jump you will get your million dollar bonus and another step toward 100% Completion. Now let's go over the last car collection list..... /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | V.6. Suburban Import Export Garage [SIEG] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ Just north of the Pike Creek Pay 'N' Spray is a building, The Fudge Packing Corp., that has a car list on it. This is the Suburban Import Export Garage. This is just like the Industrial one on Portland Island but has a different list of cars. There are 16 vehicles listed that you need to collect. For each vehicle you obtain you will get $1,000. If you get all 16 vehicles listed you will get a $200,000 bonus plus you can have unlimited use of the cars you have collected. Just walk into the garage and pick one of the vehicle icons. You will then be instructed to exit the garage and in a few seconds, your new car will be made available to you. Below is the vehicle list as well as where to find them. These are some of the more reliable locations and missions to find the vehicles. "Generated at random" means that you have to wait for them to spawn on their own before you can acquire them: >>Cabbie ****** Where Found: At Mean Street Taxis in Trenton (Portland Island). >>Sentinel ******** Where Found: At the Airport Parking lot, or at Kenji's Casino parking lot (Staunton Island). >>Taxi **** Where Found: At the Airport Parking lot or in front of the East Airport Entrance. >>Cheetah ******* Where Found: At the house next door to the Columbian Mansion at The Homes. >>Stallion ******** Where Found: At the Airport Parking lot, at the parking lot near the west hairpin turn for Cedar Road, at the Carson General Hospital parking lot (Staunton Island), or at the Liberty Memorial Coliseum parking lot (Staunton Island). >>Banshee ******* Where Found: At the parking lot near the west hairpin turn for Cedar

It was in front of the building here that I pulled off an unusual feat that can be best called a "double jacking". After depositing a car in the garage, I jacked a van so I could go back to the airport to get another car. After
about thirty feet I heard "get out" and the van stopped as Claude climbed out of the van. What I didn't see, while I was pulling out the first driver, was a thug entering the van from the passenger side as I was taking it. So now I was being jacked about thirty feet from where I just got the van. However, Claude was on his feet and not stepping away from the van when he exited. So, as the thug moved into the driver seat, I pressed Enter Vehicle to rejack the van and remove the thug that tried to take it. Served him right. /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | V.7. Acquiring the Rhino (The Not-So-Safe Method) [AQRN] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ Now that you've opened up Shoreside Vale, your Wanted Ratings can go up to the maximum of 6-Stars. This means that you can try to get the Rhino by getting a 6-Star Wanted Rating, and taking it from the soldiers, so you can complete the Emergency Vehicle Crane list (assuming that you didn't acquire the tank after the mission "Arms Shortage" (Ray Machowski)). As outlined earlier, the soldiers that come after you are very tough to deal with so getting the Rhino during a 6-Star rampage can be difficult. But this task can be made easier by doing your rampage in the right place. And that place would be at the Wichita Gardens Safehouse. Or more specifically, the garage there. For best results, have no cars in the garage. Make sure that you have lots of ammo specifically for the Flame-Thrower and the Rocket Launcher (go back to Portland Island and do the stock up trick to get lots of ammo for it). Go into the street and start flaming people until you have a 3-Star Wanted Rating and when the helicopter shows up, rocket it out of the sky. Head back to your garage and enter the left side (the side closest to the street). Remember, you can use the Flame-Thrower through the wall so you can get people on the other side easily. Usually, there are some Cops on the other side so you can get it up to 5-Star quickly. Switch to your Rocket Launcher and go into Target mode. You may notice that the Cop and FBI cars are just driving around without going after you. Because you are in the garage, the Cops behave differently. If they are on foot, they will still go after you but if they remain in their cars they will ignore you. You can shoot the cars easily from your position and jack your Wanted Rating to 6-Star. You can also creep forward and rocket the helicopters. Now the Army will spawn Rhinos and Barracks OL's behind the garage area and may get stuck on the lamppost on the other side of the garage wall. This is what you want. If they make their way to the garage entrance, it will get quite difficult. The trick here is to get them to come out of the tank. Switch to your Uz-I. Creep forward and when you reach near the edge of the open garage door overhead, they will usually come out. Quickly run back into the garage and switch to your Flame-Thrower. Flame through the wall for a few seconds to set the soldiers on the other side on fire. Remember, flame weapons are the only things in your arsenal that can destroy the Rhino so you want to set the soldiers on fire but not risk destroying the tank you are trying to get.
After killing the soldiers switch to your Uz-I, quickly run out of the garage and grab the Police Bribes on the opposite end. Then get the now abandoned Rhino. After getting the Rhino, drive it to the Crane to deposit it. After completing the list and getting your bonus, get the Rhino Icon. After getting the tank, drive it back to your Staunton Island hideout and save it. There are some missions in which the tank may come in handy. If you were diligent in getting all the cars for all of the car lists, you should now have completed all of the car lists in the game. Even though I've simplified the process of getting the tank, it may take a couple of tries to get it. Surviving a 6-Star Wanted Rating without the use of cheats can always be difficult no matter where you are. /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | V.8. "Gripped!" [GRPD] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ In the parking lot for the Beach Park in Shoreside Vale is a Patriot. When you enter the Patriot, you begin the Patriot mission "Gripped!". Here you have to collect 20 checkpoints and you have five minutes to collect them all. However, when you get the first checkpoint, you have 15 seconds to collect the second one. Fortunately, the faster you can get the checkpoints, the more time you can accumulate. The timer will start when you get the first checkpoint. This is probably the hardest of all of the vehicle missions in the game. Mainly because of all of the climbing uphill and trying to control the Patriot while going downhill. This mission is harder in the Xbox version because the trees and foliage are made larger and more lush making it very hard to see what you are doing. Go left and get the first checkpoint (1). The second checkpoint (2) is on a small hill and if you try to get it head-on, you will most likely flip the Patriot. Go to the left of the checkpoint and turn right to get it. Behind (2) and partway up the rocky part of the hill is (3). Then turn slightly right and you will see two more checkpoints (4,5). Number (4) is on the left and should be gotten first. After getting (4), back up very slightly and get number (5). When you finally reach the top of the hill, you will see two checkpoints, one to the right and one to the left. Get the one to the right first (6). Be careful, the trees will obscure your vision a bit. After getting (6), back up and then whip the Patriot 180 degrees so you can get number (7). Be careful when you go from the grass to the rock otherwise you may flip the car off the hill and back into Wichita Gardens. After getting (7), turn right and go into the street. Turn right and follow the street toward (8) which is right by the edge. Go up the street and go between the last tree from the tunnel and the light-post to get up the hill and claim (9). The next three (10,11,12) are relatively easy and you can get them quickly to accumulate a lot of time. After getting (12), turn left and brake slightly going down and then climb up to get (13). Getting number (14) is a bit tricky. From (13), head right and make sure that
(14) is off to your left. You will see that (14) is partway down the steep hillside. Turn your Patriot right and position your car so that (14) is behind you. Then tap reverse once and let gravity pull you to (14) and tap accelerate when necessary to keep control. After getting (14), hold accelerate and go straight up and get (15). Turn left and back down to get (16). After (16), turn right and you will have to go practically straight up this pointed hill to get (17). Getting from (17) to (18) is dangerous because of the steep hills so you will have to use handbrake and reverse together to keep control. After getting (18), turn right and go get (19). (19) is pretty easy to get and after that is the last checkpoint (20). (20) is sitting on the top of the tunnel entrance on the right side and out of view. You can see the left side of the the tunnel top and line yourself properly with it. If you don't, you may fall into the street instead and miss (20). Then go down and get the last checkpoint to complete the vehicle mission and get $40,000 for doing so. /=========================================================================\ 0===========================================================================0 | V.9.

"Rumpo Rampage" (Toyz Van) [RPRM] | 0===========================================================================0 \=========================================================================/ Just northeast of the Shoreside Vale Safehouse, and behind the billboards, is another Toyz Van. Entering it will trigger the last Toyz Van Mission "Rumpo Rampage". Just like "Diablo Destruction", "Mafia Massacre", and "Casino Calamity" you have to use remote controlled cars to destroy gang vehicles. In this mission, you have to destroy as many Rumpo XL's as you can in two minutes. By completing this mission you will also finish all of the Toyz Van missions and all of the side-missions in GTA3. With all of the side stuff done on Shoreside Vale let's go back to the Main Story Missions starting with..... /RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR\ 0RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR0 | >R4.

He didn't use the Predator but instead blew up Ray's partner from land using a Rocket Launcher. I gave this a try and refined this idea further. Instead of using the Rocket Launcher I used the Sniper Rifle for better accuracy and less ammo wasted even though it takes a few shots to destroy the boat. 0=========0 | The Plan \ 0===========0 When the mission begins go to either the pier area near Asuka's condo or at the slip south of the Callahan Bridge to get into the Predator. However, once at the controls of the boat and the game prompts you to go after Ray's partner, get out and back into your car. Drive over to the SupaSave! Store and go into the alley between the parking lot and Portland Harbor. Then hang right when you get to the grass and head to the beach. When you get close to the water, and near Ray's position, get out and switch to your Sniper Rifle. Fire once at the boat to start the cutscene. After the cutscene you will notice that you have damaged his boat a bit. He will also start to drive around. He will loop around the large ship, the nearby rocks, and the Lighthouse. He won't try to leave the area unless you chase him with the Predator. Keep shooting at his boat with the Sniper Rifle. If you damage his boat enough he will drop some barrels and make a run for the beach. You can destroy the boat before he reaches shore by hitting it with a couple of more shots. However, if he beaches his boat, he will jump out. If you are close to the boat he will head toward you and try to kill you with AK-47. If this
happens use whatever weapon you want to kill him. But if you are far enough away he will take a few steps then stop. When he stops, nail him with your Sniper Rifle. By the way, if you kill him this way, you can wait for his boat to slip back into the water and you can drive it around if you wish. However, his boat, called the Ghost (Xbox) or Ghost missing (PS2), doesn't do anything special. If you wait for him to come back around the large boat he will head for the rocks and toward your position. You can destroy him with your Sniper Rifle at this point without him making a run for the beach. Regardless of method, once you kill Ray's partner the mission is successfully completed. 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0 $15,000. /RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR\ 0RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR0 | >R5.

0===========0 Take the Firetruck and head towards the blip. When you smack it the first time you will be spotted and get a 2-Star Wanted Rating. Smack it again to eject the witness. The bodycast is flame and bullet proof so you will have to use something else to kill him. In this case you can run him over with the Firetruck. You can either go back to your Safehouse to use the Police Bribes to get rid of the Wanted Ratings then run him over or fight through the Police pursuit to run him over. Once you run him over with the Firetruck (it may take two tries) you will finally kill him and complete the mission. If you thought about using the Rhino or the Rocket Launcher on the Ambulance, you're not alone. However, if you completely destroy the Ambulance with the Rhino or a rocket, it will become a decoy and another Ambulance will generate near the hospital. You will have to damage the Ambulance without destroying it to eject the witness. This is why I used the Firetruck instead of the Rhino. 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0 $10,000. /RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR\ 0RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR0 | >R6.

Tried it out and it works pretty good. 0=========0
| The Plan \ 0===========0 You have three minutes to take Ray to the airport and the Shoreside Lift Bridge is being watched over by the CIA so you will have to take another route. If you decide to use the fast car strategy, the best route is through the subway and the nearest entryway is at Liberty Campus (north side of Liberty Campus across the street from the stairs leading into Carson General Hospital). Get to the tracks, go right, and stay on the left side. Exit through the Francis International Airport subway entrance and go to the blue circle to drop off Ray. If you decide to use the Rhino, just go up the bridge like you would in a car. The CIA gunmen can't hurt you since you are in the tank. Even though the tank is a little slow you can get to the Airport in plenty of time. As a reward for dropping off Ray at the Airport, you are given a set of keys to a lock-up that has some goodies. Go to the lock-up which is near the Tw@ Internet Cafe in Newport. Opening up the lock-up will reveal a Bulletproof Patriot, a Rocket Launcher, a Sniper Rifle, a Flame-Thrower, and an M-16. By getting to the lock-up, you also complete the mission. Don't forget to take the Bulletproof Patriot and save it at your garage for future use. 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0 $20,000.

The Rhino Method **************** If you managed to acquire a tank you can use it here. Go back to your garage and get your Rhino. Drive over to Kenji's Casino and park in the blue circle. Wait for the undercover cop to get into his car. When he does, follow him. If you were to use a regular car and hit this guy's car, you would get a 5-Star Wanted Rating and he will try to speed up and evade you (and you would have to deal with FBI Cars and other Police Vehicles). But when you use the tank, one hit will automatically destroy him and complete the mission. Simple. Then park your tank back in your garage for future use. 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0 $20,000.

It turns out that the Columbians beat you to the punch and have killed all of the officials near the plane. Keep your distance and pick off the four Columbians guarding the plane with the Sniper Rifle. After killing them, enter the plane. The package is gone and the game prompts you to go to one of the remaining vans outside the hangar. The van has the Pan-Lantic logo on the side. You are then prompted to go to the construction site on Staunton Island to see about getting the package there. When you arrive there, you are given a hostile greeting by the Columbians. There are ten Columbians guarding the lift up the building. They are hidden around the blue walled area leading to the lift. Use the raised ground south of the walled area and the unfinished building next to it and snipe them from above. You can also use the Rocket Launcher to get those you can't see. Listen for their taunts to locate them. After killing all of the Columbian guards, you are to take the lift. You are then treated to a cutscene of Claude going up. He manages to
surprise Catalina and her partner Miguel. As Miguel gives the package to Claude, Catalina shoots him and flees. When Claude turns around, he is met by Asuka who is upset over the death of Kenji and has blamed the Cartel for his death (and unaware of your duplicity in the matter). She is going to work over Miguel for information and wants you to stop by later for additional work.

"Instead of following the truck around and trying to protect, when it takes off, just stay away from it. If you are far enough away from it, it will not take any damage, maybe a little, but after a couple minutes of waiting, you will get a message telling you to check out the exit of the tunnel. Go across the lift bridge, and wait until the blip (truck) moves a little, then get away from it again, go back to your hideout in Staunton Island, and you will complete the mission without doing anything. (One time the damage meter just popped up and I failed the mission instantly. I do not know why that happened, but it only
happened once. Also, if you just stay near Donald Love's building, you can restart the mission if that does happen.)" I played around with it and it works but the Securicar can get pretty damaged in the process. But his suggestion inspired me to make some changes. Something funny happened to me while I was taking notes for this mission. I was going along the route and decided to park the car on the sidewalk at Liberty Campus so I could type. While I was parked, a thug carjacked me and sped off. Lucky me, I just happened to have my Rocket Launcher ready so I aimed down the street and blew up the car that was taken from me (along with the thief inside). Even better was the fact that I blew up the car in front of a Police Car. And the cop didn't even give a shit. Serves the thief right. Nobody carjacks from Claude and lives to tell the tale..... 0=========0 | The Plan \ 0===========0 The mission won't start until you drive near the parked Securicar that has the Old Oriental Gentleman in it. This also gives you an excellent opportunity to get a Securicar for the Industrial Import Export Garage. Just like in "Van Heist" (Joey Leone), the game needs to spawn Securicars because of the special Securicar you need to protect. So wander around Staunton Island (don't get too close to the parked Securicar otherwise you start the mission) and find a Securicar. Then jack it and take it back to the garage. Then go back to Staunton Island, get another Yakuza Stinger, and go to the parked Securicar to start the mission. The path the Securicar takes is: >>Down the main road through Bedford Point to Belleville Park. >>Then it turns left then right and goes down the road through Aspatria and turns right at the Stadium Entrance. >>Then it turns left down the main road (between the Stadium and Liberty Campus) and turns right at the intersection in Rockford. >>Then it goes into the Porter Tunnel where it turns left at the intersection and turns left at the next one to go to Shoreside Vale. >>Then it exits the tunnel next to the Airport and goes up the road until it reaches the AM Petroleum Company (Shoreside Vale) at Pike Creek where it will be safe and the mission ends. Partway through the mission, the Columbians will attack the vehicle with Cartel Cruisers and with gunmen posted at various places along the path. Believe it or not, if you just sit there by Love Media and let the Securicar go on its own, it will suffer little damage (unless it tries to plow through traffic). However, for some reason, it will not exit the tunnel (at the Airport) unless you move near the Airport (by going over the drawbridge). If you decide to go far ahead and wait at the tunnel exit, the Securicar will not enter the tunnel at Staunton Island. In addition, if you decide to "ambush the ambushers" before getting the Securicar to start, it won't work. The designers made it so the Columbians appear only when the Securicar gets to within a certain distance from them. As it turns out, the Cartel Cruisers end up doing little damage to the Securicar. It's the gunmen posted along the route (wielding M-16s) that are
the most dangerous. While Web's strategy does work, I've come up with another strategy that will allow you to succeed but with little damage to the Securicar. The strategy is to go ahead of the Securicar and take out the gunmen as they appear. Vanatorul DeVise's suggestion is to use the Bulletproof Patriot you earned from the mission "Marked Man" (Ray Machowski). There are ten Columbian gunmen to get rid of. First go down through Belleville Park and park the Yakuza Stinger on the right sidewalk just past Uncle BJ's (the one under the Shoreside Lift Bridge Loop) and by the front door of Semi Sportswear. When the first gunmen appear, run over Gunman#1 ahead of you then turn left to do a circle that will allow you to run over Gunman#2 and go north along the street to the Stadium entrance. Gunman#3 is on the right side of the Stadium steps. Run him over and circle toward the main road along Liberty Campus. Gunman#4 is standing on the right side of the road on the north part of Liberty Campus. Run him over and continue to the Porter Tunnel Entrance. When at the tunnel entrance, exit your car and switch to your Sniper Rifle. Snipe Gunman#5 at the top of the tunnel entrance. Get back in your car and stop at the first intersection in the tunnel. When Gunman#6 appears at the intersection, drive-by him and proceed to the tunnel exit at the Airport. After exiting the tunnel, park the car on the median and exit. Aim the Sniper Rifle at the top of the tunnel exit you came from. When Gunman#7 appears, shoot him, get back in your car and then run over Gunman#8 at the Airport intersection right by the construction cones. Right by the AM Petroleum Company (Shoreside Vale), on the left sidewalk will be Gunman#9. When you run him over, turn right and run over Gunman#10 who will be on the right sidewalk. After that then all you have to do is wait for the Securicar to come by and park at the AM Petroleum Company (Shoreside Vale). You can ignore the Cruisers unless they manage to get lucky and really mess up the Securicar. Recently I played around here and found an interesting way to do this mission. You can jump on top of the Securicar and do the mission from there. Even though the game says you need a car to do this mission once you manage to jump on top of the armored vehicle the mission will start. To jump on top of the vehicle, go directly south from the door when you start the mission. You should see the bushes by the pillar near the Securicar. Inside the bushes is an M-16 Weapon Icon (which will appear for this mission only). Get inside the bushes and aim Claude toward the Securicar. Jump onto the ledge then jump onto the Securicar. Move close to the front and the mission will start. When doing the mission this way I suggest using the Rocket Launcher on the Cartel Cruisers when they come up from behind. Use the Sniper Rifle on the gunmen. Even though you are on top of a moving vehicle, if you zoom in all the way, the sight will still move slowly enough to allow you to precisely aim on the gunmen as you approach them.
However, when in the tunnel you will be knocked off when the tunnel dips as you get near Francis International Airport. Just run up the tunnel far enough to get the "Welcome to Shoreside Vale" message, get up on the tunnel sidewalk, and stop. If you kept the damage to the Securicar to a minimum you can just let it go on its own from here. If you thought of moving Claude onto the hood of the vehicle to drop him low enough to keep him from getting knocked off don't bother. For some reason when you put him on the hood the game will think he will be in front of the Securicar and he will lose armor and health. Unless you move him quickly back onto the top of the vehicle Claude will die and you will fail the mission. Regardless of method, after the Securicar parks safely inside the AM Petroleum Company (Shoreside Vale) building the mission is successfully completed. 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0 $40,000. /DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD\ 0DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD0 | >D6.

Donald wants Claude to lure the Cops away so his friend can escape. 0========0 | Weapons \ 0==========0 None. 0==========0 | Prep Work \ 0============0 None. 0======0 | Notes \ 0========0 During one attempt, I got the Securicar and made my way to the street. I barely poked my nose out from the AMCO entrance and I get hit by a vehicle. A Rhino. So my mission ends before I can begin. Now that's just wrong. I've had several people write to me saying that I should destroy the Police Vehicles surrounding the place first before grabbing the decoy vehicle. This is not a good idea. I found that if you do this the Police Vehicles
that chase you are mostly going to be the Barracks OL and the Rhinos which is what you DON'T want. If you leave the Police Vehicles alone then the Police Vehicles that chase you are primarily going to be the Police Cars and Enforcers which are easier to deal with. And I came up with a much better place to wait out the Police. 0=========0 | The Plan \ 0===========0 When you reach the AM Petroleum Company (Shoreside Vale) area, you should see some Police Vehicles (Enforcers and Police Cars) parked around the perimeter of the building. As stated above, you should leave them alone. Next, park your car in the entranceway then enter the Decoy Vehicle. When you get inside you will be hit with a 6-Star Wanted Rating. However, the vehicles that will be chasing you are mostly going to be the Enforcers and Police Cars you passed up. Instead of going out the way you came in, hang a right and jump off of the ramp to get to the street below. Head toward the Shoreside Lift Bridge. As you turn south and head toward the three-way intersection for the Airport entrance, veer left slightly and into the oncoming lanes. Once you get past the Sumo billboard and the overhead road signs, veer left and off the road between the large tree and the start of the tunnel exit. Stay on the grass and continue toward the Shoreside Lift Bridge. Next, go underneath the Shoreside Lift Bridge and park the Securicar next to the Flame-Thrower Weapon Icon. From this point on the Police can't touch you and you can just sit and wait. However, if a Police Vehicle does chase you under the bridge, stand still and wait for the officers to exit their car. Then drive-by them when they approach. Once the timer runs out, the mission is complete. 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0 $35,000. /DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD\ 0DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD0 | >D7.

"Bait" (Asuka Kasen) | 0AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA0
\AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA/ 0=========0 | Overview \ 0===========0 Asuka informs Claude that Catalina has three death squads whose sole purpose is to hunt him down. Asuka wants Claude to lure them into a Yakuza ambush. 0========0 | Weapons \ 0==========0 None. 0==========0 | Prep Work \ 0============0 None. 0======0 | Notes \ 0========0 None. 0=========0 | The Plan \ 0===========0 All of the action takes place in Shoreside Vale. The Yakuza ambush point is at the Undercover Storage company in Pike Creek. The three death squads are located at Cochrane Dam, Cedar Grove, and Pike Creek. If you thought about taking them out from a distance with a Rocket Launcher, forget about it. Doing so will fail the mission. You HAVE to lure them to the Yakuza. When you start the mission, grab the Yakuza Stinger parked nearby. When you get to Pike Creek, you will activate to first death squad. Lure it to the ambush point. If you get too far ahead, you will lose them and fail the mission. When you successfully lure them to the ambush point, use the ramp for PKC-J14 to get out of the way, jumping down into the street below, and let the Yakuza do their work. If you wreck the car, go to the nearby Fudge Packing Corp. to get another car (if you completed the Suburban Import Export Garage list). Lure the other two death squads to the ambush point. When the last of the squads are killed, the mission is completed. 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0 $35,000. /AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA\ 0AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA0
| >A7. "Espresso-2-Go!" (Asuka Kasen) | 0AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA0 \AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA/ 0=========0 | Overview \ 0===========0 Asuka tells Claude that the Columbians have a front company, The Kappa Coffee House, that they use to push SPANK. They use the coffee stands to sell their wares. Asuka wants Claude to destroy their stands. 0========0 | Weapons \ 0==========0 Rocket Launcher (optional). 0==========0 | Prep Work \ 0============0 Make sure that you still have the Bulletproof Patriot parked in your Staunton Island garage (optional). 0======0 | Notes \ 0========0 Had a gentleman named xX-G-MaN-Xx point out something that should have been obvious in the beginning. I also had another reader, Mike Unger, point out that after destroying several of the stands you will be chased by a Cartel Cruiser. But it usually doesn't give much trouble. 0=========0 | The Plan \ 0===========0 There are nine stands throughout Liberty City. When you destroy the first one, you have eight minutes to destroy the other eight stands before the Cartel warn their pushers. There are two stands on Portland Island, five stands in Staunton Island, and two in Shoreside Vale. What xX-G-MaN-Xx suggested is to drive around Liberty City and get the blips to appear on the radar first before destroying the first stand. This will make things easier as you progress through the mission. The two stands in Portland (and the order I am going to destroy them in) is: >>[1] - In the front of St. Marks Park in St. Marks. >>[2] - Across the street from the entrance to Portland Docks. One of the stands on Portland Island is in Mafia territory. Because of the hostile Mafia and their powerful Shotguns I highly recommend using the Bulletproof Patriot for this mission. If you were not able to save the Bulletproof Patriot you can still do this mission.
If you have the Patriot, you can just go up to the stands and ram them without them doing any damage with gunfire (but you will damage the Patriot by ramming the stands). If you don't have the Patriot, you can get out of the car some distance from the stands and rocket them. To get the stand in Mafia territory without using the Patriot you will need to go around the north edge of Portland Island and come up beside the late Salvatore Leone's mansion. Get one of the two cars parked there and drive up the the main fence. Jump up on top of the car and rocket the first stand. Then get back in the car and go south alongside and behind the apartment building and down the hill behind the SupaSave! Store. Then get back on the road and head to the second stand. After destroying the second Portland Island stand drive on over to Staunton Island and destroy the other five stands in this order: >>[3] - By the crystal sculpture at Crystal Park in Torrington. >>[4] - In the plaza across the street from the 20thC. Building in Bedford Point. >>[5] - By Liberty Cathedral. >>[6] - In the Main Park in Belleville Park. >>[7] - In front of the building south of the Multistory Carpark in Newport. Use the Rocket Launcher on all of them except [6] which you can quickly smash with the Patriot (although you can rocket it from afar regardless of whether or not you have the Patriot). Then drive over to Shoreside Vale to get the last two: >>[8] - By the Francis International Airport Subway Entrance. >>[9] - In front of Hope Medical College in Pike Creek. Destroy these two and the mission is successfully completed. Park the Bulletproof Patriot at your Wichita Gardens garage for later use (if you have it and use it). 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0 $40,000. /AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA\ 0AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA0 | >A8. "S.A.M." (Asuka Kasen) | 0AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA0 \AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA/ 0=========0 | Overview \ 0===========0 When Claude arrives at the construction site, he finds Maria has joined Asuka in torturing Miguel. He reveals that a plane carrying more SPANK will be arriving soon at the airport. Asuka wants Claude to get a boat, go to one of the marker buoys, use a Rocket Launcher to shoot the plane down, grab the stuff, and stash it.
0========0 | Weapons \ 0==========0 Rocket Launcher, Sniper Rifle. 0==========0 | Prep Work \ 0============0 None. 0======0 | Notes \ 0========0 One of my readers, Sal Hatton, came up with a much better way of doing this mission..... 0=========0 | The Plan \ 0===========0 In past revisions of the guide you had to get to a boat, go to a marker buoy near the Airport, and then blast the plane from the sky. The problem with that is the fact that it is hard to hit the plane from the boat and from the angle you have to take with the Rocket Launcher. What Sal suggested instead was to take a fast car, like the Yakuza Stinger parked by the elevator where you started the mission, and drive over to the Airport tarmac instead. Near one end of the runway are two groups of Columbians (three men and one Cartel Cruiser per group). Keep far enough away, exit your car, switch to your Sniper Rifle, and kill all six Columbians. If you get too close, a couple of Columbians will enter one of the Cruisers and confront you. Next, drive over near one of the two Cruisers, get out, and switch to your Rocket Launcher. Now stand to either the left or right side of the Main Runway and aim the Launcher down the runway near the center. When the plane lands on the runway, rocket it. In the process of destroying the plane you get a 4-Star Wanted Rating. Get back to your car and collect all eight packs then go between the runways and to the Predator waiting there at the end of the path. Take the boat and go back to Staunton Island. Get as close as you can to the Construction Site and beach the craft. Then jack a nearby car and go to the site. When you arrive at the site, you open the cutscene "Ransom". Claude finds that Asuka and Miguel are dead and Maria missing. He also finds a note..... "I've got your precious Maria. If you don't want her face to look like she fell out with the butcher bring $500,000 to the Villa at Cedar Grove." 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0 $45,000.
And the completion of Asuka's missions. There is one more Main Story mission left but I will tie up some loose ends first. I will now go back to Wichita Gardens and save at my hideout there so I can get started with..... /IDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDI\ 0DIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDID0 | V.11.

Have a Rhino saved at your Staunton Island garage (optional). 0======0 | Notes \ 0========0 I had a gentleman named Shaun recommend to me another method using the Rhino and I tried it out. It worked well enough to put into the guide. I also had a reader, Lindsey Kids, make an additional suggestion concerning the Rhino: "i know i am a little late getting to GTA3, but i noticed that you said on the mission "Uz-I Money" that you have to store a tank at the Staunton Island place, the game remembers the place of tanks, so if you just leave it there near your hideout, you can pick it up at any time." 0=========0 | The Plan \
0===========0 There are two ways to do this mission..... The BulletProof Patriot *********************** Take your Patriot and pick up the mission. When a half minutes to drive-by 20 Purple Nines. One mission is that when you start drive-bying, you Hoods Rumpo XL vans that roam the Gardens. This because they will do damage to your Patriot and
you start, you have two and of the problems with this will get accosted by the will make things difficult throw off your aim.
But there is a place where you can drive-by and not worry about the Hoods Rumpos. There is a stretch of road that runs from your hideout to the parking lot behind your hideout. Just go up and down this stretch of road to claim your victims. Since your Patriot is bulletproof, they can shoot it up as much as they want and not do any damage. The Rhino ********* Shaun wrote this to me commenting on "Uz-I Money"..... "On Uz-I $, the tank cannon counts as a drive-by killing. Just drive around shooting everything. If your shot hits a billboard, it will explode killing everyone nearby. If you blow up a car, and Purples who die in the explosion count as kills. I tried this out and it works pretty well. This is a nice method to use if you were able to acquire a Rhino earlier in the game. The only place to save the Rhino is at the Staunton Island garage so it will take some time to get the tank to the mission pick-up point. Just go around the area and use your Tank Gun to claim your victims. After you get the last Purple Nine, the mission is completed. If you used the Rhino, go and park it back at the Staunton Island garage so you can use it later. 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0 $10,000. /IDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDI\ 0DIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDID0 | >DI2.

0======0 | Notes \ 0========0 None. 0=========0 | The Plan \ 0===========0 When you pick up the mission you have six minutes to get the car, an Infernus, to the garage in St. Marks. Too many bumps during the trip and the bomb will blow. The Infernus is parked in the parking lot behind your hideout. Use the Gardens Shortcut to go to the Porter Tunnel and drive to Portland. Don't worry about the Mafia when you arrive at St. Marks. Their hostility has been turned off for this mission so all you have to do is get the car into the garage. After defusing the bomb, take the car back to Shoreside Vale. Repair the car at the Pay 'N' Spray there and carefully drive it back to the parking lot. You have to get it back there with no damage whatsoever. Any damage and you will have to take it back to the Pay 'N' Spray. Once you have it parked back in its original spot, the mission is completed. 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0 $20,000. /IDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDI\ 0DIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDID0 | >DI4.

0======0 | Notes \ 0========0 None. 0=========0 | The Plan \ 0===========0 Take the Rumpo over to the phone to pick up the mission. When you pick up the mission, you have six minutes to pick up at least 30 pieces of platinum to one of D-Ice's garages in Pike Creek. This garage is at the Turtle Head Fishing Co. Head over to the Hospital and on the south side is where you will encounter the first of the platinum pieces. After picking up a few pieces, you will attract the attention of the Cops. Head left at the intersection then right at the next to make your way to the garage picking up platinum as you go. If you can do this right, you can get all of the pieces you need in one run. If not, use the Pay 'N' Spray to repair your van before getting any more. Once you have gotten at least 30 pieces to the garage, the mission is completed. 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0 $25,000. /IDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDI\ 0DIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDIDID0 | >DI5.

None. 0=========0 | The Plan \ 0===========0 D-Ice's baby brother will be at your hideout. The only rules for this contest is that there are to be no guns or cars: bats only. Drive to the Beach Park. Get out, stand in one place, and hold the Attack button. You should be swinging your bat and hitting any Purple Nine that gets in your way. Just keep swinging and after awhile you will knock down and nail all of the Purple Nines to complete the mission. 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0 $10,000.

And, more importantly, if you decide to do a New Game, you will run into the infamous "Purple Nines Glitch".

Rocket Launcher (optional). 0==========0 | Prep Work \ 0============0 Get a fast car, like a Yakuza Stinger, and save it at your garage (optional). Have a Rhino saved at your garage (optional). 0======0 | Notes \ 0========0 Got a new tip that worked pretty well from some named KWoBBS2..... "In the KC1. "Bling-Bling Scramble" (King Courtney) mission, I found that using the old Rhino works especially well...blowing up your competition, then taking your good sweet time hitting each check point." And I recently got another suggestion by Hari Vikram that works pretty good too. 0=========0 | The Plan \ 0===========0 When you get the mission, take your fast car (or Rhino) and drive to the blue circle near the Liberty Memorial Coliseum and turn south before entering. When you stop in the blue circle, you will see the other three cars come up to challenge you: a Patriot, a Cheetah, and a Bobcat. When the race starts, you must be the first to a checkpoint. You have to have more firsts than the other cars to successfully complete the race. If you get more firsts than the other cars when the last checkpoint is taken, you will then successfully complete the mission. Of course, with the Rhino, you can just blow up your competition at the starting line and get all of the checkpoints for yourself. Then there's this method suggested to me by Hari Vikram: Get the Rocket Launcher and make sure you have it ready when you enter your car. This method works best if you use a real fast car like the Yakuza Stinger. When the race starts speed over to the first checkpoint but stop just before you touch it. Get out of the car and aim the Rocket Launcher. If you got to the checkpoint fast enough, the other cars should be way behind you. This will give you enough time to stop, get out, aim, and blast the other cars to bits. Then get back in your car and get all 15 checkpoints. If you manage to blow up your car in the process just go get another one and proceed. 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0

They come up in a Perennial and the escorts are there to make sure you don't leave the vehicle. They also give you an Uz-I to help you out. Then make your way to Hepburn Heights to kill the Diablos. You need to kill ten of them to successfully complete the mission. If you drive-by them, you will attract their attention and they will try to yank you from the car. Since your car is a lousy Perennial, they can do that pretty easy. If they yank you from the car, you fail the mission. The best thing to do is to run them over. Most times they won't come after you because they just think of you as just another stupid driver. After killing ten Diablos, make your way back to the blue circle in Yardie turf to complete the mission. 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0 $10,000.

He is to take them to a garage in Newport. 0========0 | Weapons \ 0==========0 None. 0==========0 | Prep Work \ 0============0 You may want to find and get the gang cars BEFORE doing the mission and save them in your garages. This will make the mission easier. Thanks to Scott Exeter for that suggestion. 0======0 | Notes \ 0========0 None. 0=========0 | The Plan \ 0===========0 For the Mafia Sentinel, use the Porter Tunnel and turn left onto the concrete embankment when you exit. The plan is to go behind the late Salvatore Leone's mansion and get one parked in the front. Then go back down the hillside north of the club and back to the garage to drop off the car. For the Diablo Stallion, head into Hepburn Heights and jack one. Despite the Diablo hostility this isn't hard to do. For the Yakuza Stinger, head over to Asuka's Condo and take the one parked there. If you damaged up the car too much, head over to the Pay 'N' Spray to have it repaired before depositing. Or, if you don't mind a little cheating, you can do what Hadley Box suggests: "On 'Gangcar Roundup', you say you have to have the cars in mint condition to be accepted by the garage, which is true. I'm guessing you already know that if you input the health cheat inside a car the car will go back to its original unharmed state, but it will still look
the same. So this is handy because if you get one of the 3 gangcars, and mess it up real bad (almost to the point of it setting on fire) you can just drive to the garage, input the health code and then the garage will accept the car!" When you deposit the last car, the mission is successfully completed. 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0 $10,000. /CKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKC\ 0KCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCKCK0 | >KC4.

Go west from the phone and hang a left going south along the four lane road that runs along the shore. When you get to the car, you find a letter inside..... "I hear you've been a busy boy. Well I've been a busy girl. I think it's time you witnessed the real power of 'SPANK'! Besos y fuderes, Catalina, xxx. PS: DIE PEEG DOG, DIE!!" At that point, a van shows up near the main entrance and a SPANKed-up madman exits. He has explosives attached to him and he will make his way to
your car and blow himself up against it. There are a total of four vans that need to be destroyed. However, as Danny Williamson pointed out, there is already a van in the parking lot. Destroy it first before entering the car to make things easier. When you regain control, turn the car around and ram the van near the main entrance with it then get out. The impact plus the exploding bomber should be enough to destroy it. Then run out into the street and go up the stairs by the underground entrance. There are an additional three vans (four total) that release an unlimited number of suicide bombers that must be destroyed (plus any leftover bombers) to complete the mission. Use the Rocket Launcher to destroy the vans. Depending on where the remaining bombers are, you can use any other weapon do destroy them. If they are on the far side, use the Rocket Launcher. If they are close, use either the Grenades or the Molotovs. If you have the Rhino, this becomes easier. When you get the tank on Staunton Loop (West) going south, use the Tank Gun Boost to increase speed. When you regain control after the cutscene, get out and quickly get into your tank. The bombers won't try to yank you from the Rhino, they will just explode against it so you are safe. Then use the Main Gun (rotate the gun instead of moving the tank) to destroy the vans and bombers to complete the mission. 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0 $10,000. And you have now completed all of King Courtney's missions. However, the phone will still ring and there will be a blue mission circle by it. This is so you can repeat "Bling-Bling Scramble" and try to get a better score. In addition, the Yardies will be now hostile to you, the main reason I saved this one before the last Main Story Mission. Go back to your Wichita Gardens hideout and save before doing the last mission. At this point in the guide, I am at 99% completion and ready to do the final Main Story Mission of the game..... /CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC\ 0CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC0 | V.13. Catalina [CTLN] | 0CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC0 \CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC/ Catalina is the woman who left Claude for dead at the beginning of the game. She has also aligned herself with the Yardies and organized death squads to hunt Claude down. She has one mission, the last mission, and it can be picked up at the "C" at Cedar Grove. You should also have at least $500,000 to do this mission but at this point it is not a problem since you should have at least ten times that amount from doing everything else beforehand.

"The real question is, did you turn up to rescue Maria or to get me back? Well I got news for you, shooting you will be a pleasure but dating you was only business. You are muy peccinno amigo. Throw over the cash." After looking the money over..... "You have been a busy boy! But you haven't learned, I'm not to be trusted. Kill the idiot." But Claude overpowers his would be assassin and thus the final act begins..... 0========0 | Weapons \ 0==========0 Rocket Launcher, Sniper Rifle. 0==========0 | Prep Work \ 0============0 Have a fast car in your Wichita Gardens garage (optional). Have the Bulletproof Patriot saved at your Wichita Gardens garage (optional). 0======0 | Notes \ 0========0 Dennis Zoetebier came with an alternate method using the Bulletproof Patriot. I also had Charles Wooters come up with an interesting observation. He noted that after you destroy Catalina, and the mission timer disappears, that you can do whatever you want without getting any Wanted Ratings. However, as I played around with this, is that I found out that this actually begins when the mission starts. I also had one reader, Robbert Houtman, write that, because he didn't have the Rocket Launcher Weapon Icon at the Wichita Gardens Safehouse, he made a run for Phil Cassidy's Army Surplus to get Rocket Launchers then made his way back to the Cochrane Dam area. He still had about three minutes left to do the rest of the mission. 0=========0 | The Plan \ 0===========0
When the mission begins, run as quickly to the backside of the Villa as fast as you can. You can't go back and fight these guards because you have been stripped of all of your weapons. You also have seven minutes to get to where Catalina has taken Maria, Cochrane Dam, and kill her. Run along the backside and go to the garage that has a Cruiser and Body Armor inside it. Then get into the Cruiser, get to the main gate, and run over the guards. When you exit the Villa compound, you will see a chopper fly overhead. When you regain control again, veer off the road and go into Wichita Gardens (go over the small wall near the light-post). If the Cruiser survives the plunge, go to your hideout. If not, grab another car and go to your hideout. Get all of your Weapon Icons and go into your garage to get your fast car. Use the Gardens Shortcut and make your way to the dam's entrance. Cut across the grass on your right when you near the hairpin turn, stop when you get back to the street, and get out (regardless of whether you use the Bulletproof Patriot or not). Use your Rocket Launcher and take out the two Cruisers blocking the entrance. From your vantage point, you can only see one but they can't fire on you either. Just fire on the one Cruiser and the explosion will take them both out. Get back into your vehicle and drive to the Sniper Rifle Icon at the turn near the base of the dam. Use the Rocket Launcher again and destroy the two Cruisers in front of you then use the Sniper Rifle on any other Columbians you see. Get back into your car and go to the first set of containers and get out. Rocket the Barracks OL and snipe the other guards. Go back into your car and go to next set of containers just past the exploded Barracks OL. Get out and rocket the other Barracks OLs and snipe the remaining guards. Get back into your car and proceed forward. If you have the Bulletproof Patriot then just barge in after destroying the second set of Cruisers. They can't hurt you with their guns. Just run some of them over and get to the second set of containers. Just as you get past the second set of containers, a cutscene ensues which shows Catalina entering a helicopter. This helicopter launches rockets at you when you are at the base of the dam. So after the cutscene finishes, turn around and head back up the road then stop near CCD-J13. The helicopter will go in a circular pattern going down toward the dam to release its rockets then going back up near where you are at. When the helicopter heads in your direction, rocket it to destroy it. When the helicopter is destroyed, you kill Catalina and the timer will disappear. Switch back to your Sniper Rifle and aim at the top of the dam building. Believe it or not, you can actually see Maria and her captors from your position when you zoom in with your Sniper Rifle. Take out the Columbians that you can see then reenter your car, go back to the dam base, and stop by the second set of containers. It should be noted that this doesn't work on the Xbox version since the Sniper Rifle can't zoom that far. You will have to sneak up the stairs to take out Maria's guards at the top of the building. Once back at the second set of containers, snipe any guards you see then go to the stairs that leads to the top of the roof of the dam building. Take
out any remaining guards then walk up to Maria and rescue her to complete the mission. 0=======0 | Reward \ 0=========0 $1,000,000 ($500,000 plus the ransom money). Plus, you've unlocked the Rhino at Phil Cassidy's Army Surplus. If you haven't acquired the tank for the Emergency Crane list, take it from the Army Surplus and deposit it to complete the list. This should also get you the..... /==XX====XX====XX====XX====XX====0##***##0====XX====XX====XX====XX====XX==\ 0===XX====XX====XX====XX====XX====X##***##X====XX====XX====XX====XX====XX===0 | VI. 100% Completion Score [CPSC] | 0===XX====XX====XX====XX====XX====X##***##X====XX====XX====XX====XX====XX===0 \==XX====XX====XX====XX====XX====0##***##0====XX====XX====XX====XX====XX==/ And what is your reward for getting 100%? Well, nothing. Nothing except the satisfaction of getting it. This was something that was fixed for the other GTAs but here you get nada. Zero. Zip. But does this take away from this great game? Not really. It is still a fun game even if you really get nothing at the "end". /==XX====XX====XX====XX====XX====0##***##0====XX====XX====XX====XX====XX==\ 0===XX====XX====XX====XX====XX====X##***##X====XX====XX====XX====XX====XX===0 | VII.

If you open it in a text editor you will find all sorts of garbage characters. But if you manage to clean out some of the garbage, you may find some interesting stuff. Stuff like text from missions and phone calls that were abandoned in the early stages of development but were left within this file because the programmers could slow down the progress of creation if they tried to remove it. I copied some of the best stuff and cleaned it up so they can be presented here: >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Here's an alternate version of what the angry store owner says to you during "Shima" (Kenji Kasen): Owner: "I can't pay you and I wouldn't pay you if I could! Some young gang just jacked out the place! They took everything! You guys are useless. What kind of Yakuza are YOU anyway...? This ain't what I pay you goons for. If I wanted this kind of protection I'd have used the god damn Police service." >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Here's an alternate version of what Maria says at the end of the game:
Maria: "I broke a nail, and my hair's ruined. Can you believe it? This one cost me fifty dollars! I was so scared, but then I thought to myself, you're a big girl now. Oh we're going to have such fun, cause, you know, my sister said she wanted to come to stay with her two kids, because her husband's playing around again and..XXXX" >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> I wonder where this was supposed to go: "BETRAYED BY HIS LOVER CATALINA AND LEFT FOR DEAD. CONVICTED AND SENTENCED, HE BEGINS HIS JOURNEY TO LIBERTY CITY PENITENTIARY. BUT ONLY ONE THOUGHT BURNS IN HIS CRIMINAL MIND......REVENGE!" >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> This is only a part of some of the interesting stuff that is found in the "american.gxt" file. It's not an easy thing to sort through but it is cool to look around and see all of the stuff they left behind "on the cutting room floor". And that, my friends, completes the guide. I sincerely hope that this document has helped you as much as I had fun playing the game. Now it is time to close the book but there is one more thing to do first..... /==XX====XX====XX====XX====XX====0##***##0====XX====XX====XX====XX====XX==\ 0===XX====XX====XX====XX====XX====0##***##0====XX====XX====XX====XX====XX===0 | VIII.
