Get to Starfish island early: To get to Starfish Island without
completing the missions, get a fast motorcycle (not a moped). Go to the Starfish
bridge and floor it through the tiny hole used by bridge pedestrians. Wreck at
the gate and the game should put you on Starfish Island.
Get to any locked area early (1): Enable the "Dodo car" code and
use any car. Go as fast as you can and jump over the highest sign blocking the
next section of the game. Keep repeating this until you get there.
Get to any locked area early (2): Get a sniper rifle and find a place where
boats are appearing. Wait until one is coming roughly straight at you, then take
out the man piloting it with the rifle. If the boat was moving fast enough, it
will coast up to you. You should be able to jump onto it. From there, you can
get to almost anywhere. It may take awhile to find out good spots to try this.
One recommended location is behind Diaz's mansion in the lawn behind the hedge
maze.
Get to any locked area early (3): While
traveling at high speeds in an Infernus hit the gate the connects the both
islands. If done correctly, you can go through the gate on the right side. Half
of your vehicle will be on one side of the gate, and the other half will be on
the other side. You can press Triangle to step outside your vehicle on the other
side of the closed gate.
Get to any locked area early (4): Enable the "Cars float on
water" code. Then, simply drive on the water to get to any island.
Restore health: Go to your hideout and go to Save. Either save or leave
without saving and your health will be restored to full. Your wanted level will
not go down.
Increase Health By 20%: Enter any ambulance and watch your health raise
by 20%.
Increasing Armor: Get your wanted level to 4 stars and when the SWAT
Trucks come after you, attempt to hijack one. Your armor will rise to 100. Note:
Hijacking a SWAT car is not an easy task.
Clearer graphics: To make the game much clearer, pause game play and go
to 'Display', then select 'Trails' and turn that option off.
Wanted level to zero: Go to your hideout and go to "Save". Load
the most recent save and your wanted level will drop to zero.
Wanted level to zero 2: You can clear your wanted level by entering a RC
Racer Competition. You do not have to complete the competition to clear your
wanted level..

Money Tip: It is more likely that you will get more money from a guy in a
suit in tie than some bum hobbling around. So, choose who you beat up wisely if
you are in need of more than a few bucks.
Easy money (1): Occasionally as you wander around the city, you will
encounter a cop fighting with a gang member (especially in Northpoint Mall). If
you step in and hit the gang member, you will receive a $50 Good Citizen's Bonus
when the gang member dies. Once the guy is on the ground, you can continue to
kick him and receive the bonus two or three more times (until the body
disappears). This is an easy way to get some quick cash, and do some fighting in
the process.
Easy money (2): Purchasing the strip club or the docks will earn you extra
money.
Easy money (3): Knock over the parking meters on the sides of the streets
to get money.
Easy money (4): Enable the "Tommy groupies" code. Run around
until you have a large group of women following. Lead them to the nearest
alleyway or garage and just beat them all to death. Using weapons calls too much
attention from cops and paramedics.
Easy money (5): Enter any store and point a handgun at the clerk until he
gives you money. Hold the gun for a few seconds until he stops giving you money,
then run away and hide or enable the "Lower wanted level" code. Note:
Do not do this in an Ammu-Nation store as the clerk will pull a gun.
Easy money (6): Enable the "Rhino" code and press L3 to start
the vigilante missions. After every kill, you will begin to get more money.
After a while, you will have over $1,000 per kill. When the cops are on you
after a kill, enable the "Lower Wanted Level" code.
Easy money (7): Go to a hideout that generates money. Get the money and
save the game. The game time will advance three hours and more money should be
available. Repeat this as much as needed. Note: This does not always work.
Easy money (8): Stop someone a cop is chasing and get a good citizen
bonus. Now if you keep on kicking the person the cop was chasing, you will keep
on getting the bonus. I have gotten $300 before he disappeared.
Easy Money (9): On the street racing, you can blow up the other cars you
have to race when they are lined up before the race begins. Then you will be
able to run the race by yourself and win a large amount of money.
Easy Money (10): Hijack a Taxi at any time during the game and get about
twenty bucks. If you are in need of a quick 100 dollars or something, just
repeat this. But it must be different taxis. You can't just keep getting in and
out of the same one.
Drowned pedestrians: Go to any dock with people on it while you are on a
motorcycle and drive slowly on it. Some of the people (including cops) will dive
in the water to avoid you, as they do on the street. Get off the bike and look
down into the water without falling in. You can see their dead bodies floating
in the water.
Blood splatter: Kill someone with the chainsaw while you are running and
blood will splatter on the screen.
Possible reference to next game: Listen to the VCHAT radio station and
you will hear a football player call in and say "Hey, I'm a first time
calla". They will start talking about different football conversations.
Listen for about one minute and you will hear the caller say something similar
to "Well, we were beaten by San Andreas". In the original Grand Theft
Auto, the cities were Liberty City, Vice City, and San Andreas. This may be a
hint towards the location or title of the fifth game in the series.
Media coverage: Get your wanted level to six stars to get your pursuit
covered in the media. A helicopter and chase meter will appear. Keep running
from the helicopter to increase it. Every 100 seconds of game time will result
in an increased level of media coverage. Pause game play and look at your
statistics to see messages that indicate at your media level. You will start
with a story in UFA Today and progress to television news and continue until it
is a crisis.
Easy weapons: Free weapons are hidden all over the city. The flamethrower
and rocket launcher, are two especially powerful weapons. They can be found near
the boat yard and car showroom. These all respawn within a few game hours.
Collect all the desired weapons, then save at a nearby hideout. The game will
advance six hours and all your hidden weapons will have respawned. Do this three
to five times, and all your company assets will be close to full, and you can
make the rounds to get paid.
Unlimited ammunition (1): Go to any Ammu-Nation store and choose a gun.
Keep buying it until you get close to 9999 rounds. The next time you buy it, the
ammunition count for that gun will disappear and you will have an unlimited
amount.
Unlimited ammunition (2): Use the following trick to get unlimited
ammunition on the MP5. Buy unlimited ammunition for a submachine gun-class
weapon for $300, then buy (or find) the MP5, which is $3000. It uses the same
ammunition, and you will save a couple thousand dollars.
Unlimited ammunition (3): After you finish the last story line mission,
the mobsters who are outside of your house carry Uzis. Kill a lot of them and
you should have unlimited ammunition for that weapon. Then, but or find the MP5.
Giant shark: The giant shark from the InterGlobal Films studio can be
seen in the water. You may need to complete all the missions for InterGlobal
Films for it to appear. Since it moves around, there is no way of knowing where
it can be found.
Quick reloads (1): Go to the Rifle Range at the Ammu-Nation in Downtown
and get a score of 45 points.
Quick reloads (2): When using a gun, instead of using up an entire clip
and waiting for Tommy to reload, quickly switch out your weapon and then switch
back to it, It will be fully loaded without having to wait through the normal
reload animation.
Shoot police helicopters with one sniper shot: Use the sniper rifle and
aim at the joint between the rotors and the helicopter to take it down with one
shot.
Scare passenger: This trick works very well at a red light. Find a car or
truck that has a passenger as well as a driver. Run up to the car or truck's
driver-side door and press Triangle to open it. As soon as Tommy starts to get
in, press X to accelerate. If done correctly, the passenger will still be in
riding along, screaming and scared. When you slow down, they will run away.
Easy health: While in a mall, buy something to eat at the food court.
Clothing reactions: Your clothing will result in different reactions
during missions. For example, when you go to the Cubans for the first time, try
wearing golf clothes. Your new contact will make fun of you, calling you a woman
and you will make fun of him.
Save money with prostitutes: Get a convertible or another open top car.
Pick up a prostitute and drive directly to a bush, grass or trees. Your health
will jump up and she will get out almost as soon as you stop, without all the
car rocking. If you decide to watch the rocking car or cannot find a
convertible, jump out as soon as your health reaches 125 (and save the final
charge), or kill the prostitute to get your money back.
Submarine and cargo ship: You can find a sunken ship and a submarine up
north off the coast. The submarine is directly north of Ammu-Nation and The Tool
Store at Vice Point Mall. The cargo ship is east of the submarine. Note: The
submarine is Soviet, as indicated by the red star on it.
Kills Increase: If you want to get a lot of kills on your resume, do the
following: Enable the "Ladie's Man" cheat which gets different kinds
of women to follow Tommy around(Up to 8 at one time) Then find a bus. It could
be a coach or the bus you find down at the docks. They will enter the bus when
you go in. Then, get out one of your powerful weapons that can blow up a vehicle
quickly. Get far enough away and before they can get out, blow up the car. You
will get 8 easy kills.
