Tips
Back to top
All helicopter locations,
It should be noted that sometimes NONE of these helicopters show up at one time or another. If this happens, just play around for a bit - do a mission or something - and then come back and see if it is there. I promise you, they come either immediately or soon after.
Hyman Heli: On top of the Hyman building, the building is available for purchase in the Downtown area, right by the AmmuNation. It's at the far north of downtown, right by the stadium, if that helps. After that, there is a little passageway in between the garages labeled "Roof Access". Take it, and there's a heli waiting.
VCPD Heli: On top of the police building near the above mentioned 'Hyman Building'. It can be reached by some steps on the side of the main building.
VCN Heli: Some cheat guides say there are no stairs to this heli, and they're correct, but there is a very quick way to get this one WITHOUT having to get one of the others and landing next to it. Go to the VCN building (just north-east of the building with a massive hole in it for landing or whatever) on foot, and look for where the logo is. Beside this, there are some more doors. One of these is open, and inside is an elevator. As soon as you go inside you will go to the roof of the building. Then, there are some ramps up to the helipad, and voilá!
Beat G-Spotlight easily
Before you do the mission steal a helicopter and bring it to any of the places by where the mission is, i suggest you do the mission once before, before you try it. Anyway, park it anywhere on one of the skyscrapers (preferably close to the beginning of the run) and start the mission. Get a bike and drive it al the way to the helicopter, then just hop in the helicopter and fly through all of the checkpoints. Now you never have to worry about falling off of the bike and have to star over again.
Drowned man...
Between the 2 Islands right to the west of the golf course in the water there are rocks that u see under water. On the rocks under water there is a man with cement around his feat. He was thrown in the water and he is there dead forever in the game.

Easy races
The Driver Mission
This one is very tough. If you do the proper techniques, then it's much, much eaiser, even though you need quite a bit of luck. Hilary is very fast, and his car has great turning, and you only have a setinal. So you got to turn wide, and try taking shortcuts through the grass, or sidewalks as much as you can. With luck, you must have. You need to make sure that Hilary gets hit with your two wanted levels, but he can't die, or mission fails. Use the B for brakes if you need it, but keep on driving while doing so.
Alloy Wheels of Steel mission
After you start the mission, don't grab the empty angel and start the race at the blip. Look at all of the bikers first. Now, see the pink blip? And now, see the biker farthest from the blip? His bike is a Super Angel, and can turn great, speed up great, and can break much easier. So, jack his bike, and win the race
Sunshine Autos
First, you need a grenade, or a rocket launcer. Now, go to a race you are in, or going to, and equipt the weapon. Now, aim the rocket launcer so it can hit all three of the cars. Or throw the grenade at the middle car. Then, just complete the race by going through all checkpoints, while taking all the time you want.

Kill people, get money, no cops
Get a car.Go tho where the red bridge is and drive your car into water.Blow the car up.People will come running into water.Get their money but don't drowned yourself!
Passenger Mission Hint
For missions involving picking up passengers such as the taxi or paramedic missions, save seconds off of each run by getting passengers into your vehicle faster. Do this by using a melee weapon such as a baseball bat or golf club, and hit the doors until they fall off. Don't hit the door too many times to prevent damage to the vehicle itself. Also, don't knock off the driver side door, because that provides you with protection from police wanting to bust you.

Phnom Penh '86
Not A Cheat, But A Hint.
For A Stage Called Phnom Penh '86, You Have To Go With Lance In A Helicopter To Prawn Island And Shoot At People, Thats Kinda The Easy Bit, But Once Your Set Down You Have To Go In The Abandoned Building And Shoot At The People Shooting At You. Theres No Point Shooting With The Gun Your Given With Cuz, By The Time You Are Set On A Person, They Would Have Killed You, ANYWAY
Before You Get There, Find A Grenade (Behind The Police Station, At Vice Point, I Think) And When You Go In The Abandoned Building Chuck A Couple Of Bombs In And It Will Be Way Easier To Get Through, Hold Down The Trigger At Medium Force, Cuz If You Put It At High It Will Go Past Where Your Aiming And If You Go Low, You Could Kill Yourself

I was bored, so I selected the Sniper, and shot at the moon at about 10 o'clock at the airport. It gets bigger with every shot! When you reload, it returns to smaller than it was before. Weird.

Drive an exploded car. =)
Alright, so here's the trick to drive a car that looks like it's exploded. (It will still have life, and you can still even pop the tires, even when the tire doesn't show on the screen)
First off, familiarize yourself with the blow up all cars cheat, and the health cheat.
Start out by a car that you want (must have a driver in the car). Then, you do the first part of the blow up all cars cheat. So do up to this point
black, white, R, L, white, black, x, y, b, y; then hold it and wait for the y button to kick the person out of the car and for you to get in. In the process of doing this, finish the remainder of the cheat: white, L.
This will enter you in the exploded car; but the car is on fire at this point. You must then use the health cheat to stop the car from exploding.
R, Black, L, B, Left, Down, Right, Up, Left, Down, Right, Up
Then you've got your very own drivable exploded car. =) Figured this one out myself. It's pretty fun to do. Enjoy.
