GTA: San Andreas - Country Endurance Challenge

2008-08-22T00:00:00.000-07:00

This is a challenge to all GTA: San Andreas fans!

Street Race: Country Endurance (San Fierro street race)

Easy challenge: Beat my previous time of 4:45.
Hard challenge: Beat my best time of 4:32.

Challenge rules:
1. No cheats, mods, etc.
2. Start the race at any time.
3. Show your race in a video response

If you are up to the challenge, record a video and post it as a video response! :-D

Hints:

* Drive carefully. Compared to the other street races in GTA: San Andreas, Country Endurance is pretty much an endurance race, meaning that it's all about getting across the finish line. It is not uncommon that you'll wreck your car during the race, forcing you out of the race. Especially watch out for the other cars (random vehicles as well as your competitors) during the start. Since the race starts close to the entrance to a tunnel, you'll have little space between your car and the others, making some crashes likely.

* Shake the competition. Getting ahead of your competitors at the start of the game lets you concentrate on the road rather than the competition. At least a few competitors are probably going to crash in the tunnel near the start or go over a cliff. Your best bet is really to focus on avoiding the other cars whenever possible - even just a little contact with another car can mean some serious race time lost.

* Drive during the evening/night. A little known fact about this race is that there is little or no traffic on the roads in the Badlands area of the map during the late evenings/nights. This means as you leave the San Fierro area, you can actually push the car to the limit with little care for other vehicles other than your competitors. Be careful, however, when you get closer to Los Santos and later San Fierro once again, as the traffic picks up at that time. The drawback to racing during the night is that vision will not be as good as during the day, but with a few attempts you'll learn where during the race you'll need to slow down.

GTA Vice City - Printing Works 3 - Cap The Collector

2008-08-13T00:00:00.000-07:00

A gameplay walkthrough of the mission "Cap The Collector" given at the printing works ($ map marker) in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. This mission is part of the game's main storyline missions.

Summary: Having built a crime empire in Vice City, the showdown between Tommy Vercetti and Sonny Forelli of Liberty City is coming closer as Sonny sends his collectors down to Vice City to tax Tommy's business fronts. It's up to Tommy to put an end to the collectors actions and to protect his budding empire.

Requirements: Cop Land (V) and the Printing Works asset + 5 more assets completed
Suggested equipment: A good vehicle + 500 rounds of SMG ammo
Reward: $30000
Unlocks mission(s): Keep Your Friends Close... (V)

How to unlock this mission: Many people, understandably, find unlocking this mission difficult because it isn't obvious what is needed to get here. Hopefully this will help you if you are in this position.

What you need to do is three things (in any order you like):

* complete the mission Cop Land (which is given at the Vercetti mansion (V) as part of the "Protection Ring" series of missions - all of these are given at various locations at the mansion)
* complete the mission Hit The Courier (which is given at the Printing Works asset ($) - the Printing Works is a large yellow-orange colored building located between Little Havana and Little Haiti)
* complete 5 more assets (not including the Printing Works and the Protection Ring)

When you have done the things listed above you will get a phone call telling you to go to there Printing Works, which is where this mission starts.

Hints: Before you start the mission, try to have a good vehicle (car or bike) ready outside the Printing Works, as this will make the mission a bit easier. A car will make it easier to crash into the enemies, as they will be riding a motorbike, and if you use a motorbike you'll be able to shoot straight ahead - they choice it yours and either should work well.

As you start the mission, two men from the Mafia (Sonny Forelli's guys) will be riding on a Sanchez motorbike trying to get to one of your businesses. Your first task will be to hunt them down. Check your map to find out exactly where they are and to which nearby business they may be heading. I have found that they often start out heading to the Boatyard if you have completed that asset.

It probably doesn't matter much at this point if they actually get to the business and tax it before you reach them - just hunt them down.

The Mafia guys will be equipped with a shotgun and a M4 assault rifle. Try to take them out as quickly as possible, because the shotgun can be dangerous as it can throw Tommy to the ground and the M4 can do a lot of damage even at a distance. This will not be a problem if the enemies are riding their bike, since they can't use the shotgun or the assault rifle while on the bike.

When the first pair of Mafia guys are dead you will be given a message that more Mafia men are on their way. Look at your map and find where they are heading, go there and finish them off just like you did with the first pair of enemies. Then, a third pair will appear - just keep repeating the process, repairing your vehicle if you need to, possibly using the Pay 'N' Spray located close to the Printing Works or in Vice Port.

When you have killed the third pair of enemies the mission will be completed. Next, you'll receive a phone call to go to the Vercetti mansion for the last storyline mission, Keep Your Friends Close....

GTA Vice City - How To Get The Hunter In 3 Minutes

2008-04-17T00:00:00.000-07:00

People often ask me how to get the Hunter helicopter in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. As a response to this question I have created a video tutorial of how you can get the Hunter helicopter in less than 3 minutes without being shot at by the military guarding the Hunter (see video below).

For the Hunter helicopter to appear, you must either

- have collected 100 hidden packages, or

- have completed the last storyline mission, Keep Your Friends Close....

Once you have done either of the above the Hunter helicopter will become available at the army base located north of the Vice City airport. If you have completed both the last storyline mission and collected the 100 hidden packages then a second Hunter helicopter will spawn at the helipad located at the south tip of the eastern island, close to the hotel with the game's first safehouse.

This walkthrough assumes that you have completed the mission Cop Land (Tommy Vercetti/Lance Vance's (V) third mission after Rub Out), since finishing Cop Land unlocks the police uniform.

While it is true that you can get the Hunter helicopter without wearing a police uniform, I find it much better to wear such a uniform and thereby avoid getting shot at by the deadly military at the army base. Not only can the military hurt or kill Tommy, but the Hunter can also get heavy damage, making it less useful and fun to fly.

GTA Vice City - Colonel Cortez 1 - Treacherous Swine

2008-03-14T00:00:00.001-07:00

A gameplay walkthrough of the mission "Treacherous Swine" given by Colonel Cortez (C) in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City.

Summary: Having received a phone call from Cortez, Tommy heads down to the colonel's yacht. The colonel explains that one of his men, Gonzalez, may have had something to do with the failed dope deal. Tommy is sent to take care of Gonzalez, who is hiding at a penthouse appartment across town.

Requirements: Riot (L)
Suggested equipment: You get a chainsaw at the start of the missions and you may want to bring a gun with 20-30 bullets to make it easier.
Reward: $250 + Casual outfit delivered to Gash in The North Point Mall
Unlocks mission(s): Mall Shootout (C)

Hints: Gonzalez's is located close to where the second juror was in the mission Jury Fury. When the initial cutscene ends, just get a car (there should be some nice cars to choose from at the colonel's yacht) and drive across the island to the appartment building.

While the chainsaw given to you by Cortez at the beginning of the mission is enough for completing the mission successfully, you may want to get a gun, perhaps a pistol or sub machine gun. If you want such a gun, make sure you get it directly after the cutscene, before you head for Gonzalez. You may be able to find such a pistol for free close to where the colonel's yacht is located if you search the plants opposite the yacht.

When you get to the Gonzalez building you may want to park your vehicle a short distance from that building, between it and the Malibu Club. Since the cops will come after you when the hit is done, this can be a good head start when trying to escape them.

Entering the Gonzalez building you will see a short cutscene with Tommy and Gonzalez. He will try to run away from you while his two bodyguards will start to run to you and attack. The most effective things now is to use the chainsaw on the bodyguards by simply rushing through them with the chainsaw in attack mode and chasing after Gonzalez to the exit. (You may actually get to the exit before Gonzalez does, but this will not mean that you can kill him before he reaches the exit.)

When you exit the building, Gonzalez will start running toward the Malibu Club. He is very slow and you should have no problem catching up with him if you put away the chainsaw. When you reach him, either use the chainsaw or some gun and he should be done very quickly.

As Gonzalez dies you will get two wanted stars, meaning that the cops will start searching for and attacking you on sight. You will also be directed to go to the Pay 'N' Spray located pretty close by. Directly north of the Gonzalez building there is a police bride close to some bushes and palm trees - picking up this bribe will remove one wanted star and make it much easier to get to the Pay 'N' Spray.

Drive to the Pay 'N' Spray located north west of Gonzalez. You don't have to pay this time, just drive into the pink marker to finish this mission and getting rid of the remaining wanted star(s).

GTA San Andreas - Reward for 100 Sprayed Tags

2008-03-03T00:00:00.001-08:00

This is the reward you get for having sprayed 100 tags in Grand Theft Auto:San Andreas.

You get the following weapons respawning at CJ's house on Grove Street, Los Santos:

- AK-47
- Tec-9
- Sawed-off shotgun
- Molotov cocktail

Completing all 100 spray tags will also count toward getting 100% game completion.

Next: Spray Tags #01-05

The Complete Spray Tags Video Guide

GTA San Andreas - Complete Spray Tags Video Guide

2008-03-03T00:00:00.000-08:00

This is a video guide to the 100 spray tags in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. Completing all the 100 spray tags will count toward you getting 100% completion of the game. You will also get some new respawning weapons at CJ's house on Grove Street that can come in handy especially in the early parts of the game. Check out the spray tag reward.

The numbering of the spray tags is based on this map. Each spray tag in the videos is sprayed in the order shown on that map, so if you simply follow the video guide from "Spray Tags #01-05" all the way down to "Spray Tags #96-100", you can compare the messages you get in game to the ones in the videos to make sure you're getting each spray tag as you go along.

Some friendly advice before you get started

If you have already sprayed some tags before you start following this guide, make sure that you keep track of your sprayed tags as you go along. This can be done by looking at the game statistics (where the number of sprayed tags are shown) after you have attempted to spray each new tag.

Several people have told me how frustrating it is to go through all the 100 spray tags only to realize that one or two tags haven't registered correctly. Sometimes you get the message on screen that the tag has been sprayed (and it look like it has), but it really hasn't been registered, so it's important to make sure that everything is cool by checking the game statistics.

GTA Vice City - FINAL MISSION - Keep Your Friends Close...

2007-09-01T15:36:00.000-07:00

THE FINAL MISSION!

A gameplay walkthrough of the mission "Keep Your Friends Close..." given by Tommy Vercetti (V) in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City. It is the last mission in the storyline, but you can still complete the other missions in the game after completing this mission.

Summary: Sonny Forelli and his goons are finally fed up with Tommy Vercetti and have decided to come down to Vice City to take over his little empire. This means that Tommy gets a chance to meet Sonny face to face one last time before he kills him. Unfortunately, Lance shows his true colors and has to be dealt with as well in this final storyline mission.

Requirements: Cap The Collector ($ map marker)
Suggested equipment: Colt M4 assault rifle with 500+ bullets
Reward: $30000
Unlocks mission(s): None (this is the final storyline mission)

Hints: This final mission can be difficult, but if you follow these hints you should be able to pass the mission, at least after a few tries.

Protecting the safe

As the cutscene ends, Tommy finds himself standing in his office at the Vercetti Estate. There is a revolver available next to the door. Also not the big black chair in front of Tommy - this chair can be used for cover.

After a short while, Sonny's thugs will start pouring up the stairs outside and try to get to the safe in Tommy's office in order to steal your money. Crouch down behind the big black chair and shoot the enemies as soon as they appear.

Chasing Lance

Remain crouching behind the chair until you get a message to go and kill Lance. Go out of the office door, but watch out, since the enemies will keep coming up the stairs. Once you get out through the office door, a short cutscene will appear where Lance taunts Tommy from across the room. When they are done talking, start shooting at Lance quickly, because he has a good weapon and can hurt you a lot if you don't take care of him real quick. When he runs off down the corridor, finish off the three other enemies who appeared alongside Lance. Then run after him to the corridor where he disappeared.

As you reach the corridor opening, Lance will be waiting for you down the hall, shooting at you as soon as he sees you. Take cover and shoot at him again until he retreats further down the corridor. Go after him. Once again, Lance will ambush you. Shoot him quickly and move after him as he retreats. Next you will reach the stairs leading up and down. Lance will this time be waiting for you a short distance up the stairs and to the right as you exit the corridor. Shoot at him and follow him up the stairs and onto the roof.

Reaching the roof, you will be confronted with a group of enemies lead by Lance Vance. This episode is probably the most dangerous part of the mission. You should crouch low behind the barrels as soon as you can to avoid being hit. Make sure you first kill anyone who can shoot and hit you. Then take out the rest of the enemies, using the explosive red barrel if possible to make it easier. There is an adrenaline pickup to your left as you enter the roof - this may give you the edge that you'll need to win this fight.

Healing

When you have eliminated all the enemies on the roof, Lance included, you will probably be badly wounded. If you want to, you can get a health pickup from the far side of the helipad on the roof. Otherwise, you can head down the stairs to the lowest floor and get both an armor and a health pickup (you can also get a shotgun and an assault rifle here if you're low on ammo). Next, head back to your office and kill all the enemies who will now have occupied the room.

Sonny Forelli

As you have cleared the room, another short cutscene will start, where you'll see Sonny appear at the bottom of the stairs leading up to Tommy's office. When the cutscene ends, focus on shooting Sonny. He can take a few seconds of assault rifle fire, but just keep shooting him and it will all soon be over. You can use the edge of the stairs to get some protection against the bullets of your enemies while still being able to shoot back at them. When you have killed Sonny, the battle will be over and the ending cutscene will begin.

Well done! You have now completed the entire storyline in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City!

GTA Vice City - Hidden Packages video guide

2007-08-28T06:51:00.000-07:00

This is a video guide to the hidden packages that can be found in Grand Theft Auto Vice City.

The order in which the packages are taken is based on which packages are easy to get early in the game and which packages are better left until later. This way you will be better able to reap some of the rewards early in the game that you get from collecting hidden packages.

For each part of the videos guide, the hidden packages as numbered on this map are given for you to easily be able to find the part of the video guide that contains a specific hidden package.

Hidden Packages (Part 1 of 20) (Packages 3,4,5,6,7)
Hidden Packages (Part 2 of 20) (Packages 9,11,12,14,16)

Hidden Packages (Part 19 of 20) (Packages 92,93,94,95,96)
Hidden Packages (Part 20 of 20) (Packages 97,98,99,100,15)

The hidden packages in parts 1-8 can easily be done from the start of the game. Getting those packages will give you the first three rewards: Armor, Chainsaw and Revolver. To get the packages in part 8 you will need to get into the golf club. Here is a video of how this can easily be done from the start of the game.

Package #19 in part 9 can be accessed after Ken Rosenberg's mission "Riot". The rest of the packages in part 9 will become available after Colonel Cortez's mission "Guardian Angels".

All the packages in parts 10-20 can be accessed after Ricardo Diaz's mission "Phnom Penh '86", when the western island is opened up. Starting at package #1 in part 10, many of the hidden packages are best taken using a helicopter. One way in which you can easily get a helicopter early on is shown in this video.
