|                                  Controls                          (00000) |

O============================================================================O



The following are the default controls if you are using keyboard + mouse

control.  You may also use a joypad for controlling to enjoy the additional

feature of auto-targeting of weapons.



Esc - Regardless of whether you're on foot or in a vehicle the Esc key is the

pause button.  When the game is paused it brings up your menu which you can

cycle through and change various options or look at your statistics.



V - The V key basically controls the camera distance, there are three

different camera distances you can choose from when running around on foot

and various different types of camera for your vehicles as well.



W - While on foot, the W key moves CJ forward and while in cars/boats/planes,

it moves the cars/boats/planes forward and finally in helicopters, it rises

the attitude of the helicopter. Tapping W while on a bike allows you to pedal

harder and accelerate the bike.



S - While on foot, the S key moves CJ backward and while in cars/boats/planes,

it moves the cars/boats/planes backward and finally in helicopters, it lowers

the attitude of the helicopter.



Left arrow / A - While on foot, left arrow / A moves CJ to the left and while

in cars/boats, left arrow / A steer the car to the left. In

planes/helicopters, left arrow / A banks the planes/helicopters to the left.

Press left arrow / A while CJ is crouching and aiming allows you to strafe

to the left.



Right arrow / D - While on foot, right arrow / D moves CJ to the right and

while in cars/boats, right arrow / D steer the car to the right. In

planes/helicopters, right arrow / D banks the planes/helicopters to the

right. Press right arrow / D while CJ is crouching and aiming allows you to

strafe to the right.



Up arrow - While on foot, this is exactly the same as W and while in

cars/boats, it moves the camera up. In bikes and motorcycles, pressing up

arrow will make CJ stands up and finally in planes, it tilts the plane down

and finally in helicopters, it tilts the helicopter forward.



Down arrow - While on foot, this is exactly the same as S and while in

cars/boats, it moves the camera down. In bikes and motorcycles, pressing down

arrow will tilt the bike/motorcycle up and finally in planes, it tilts the

plane up and finally in helicopters, it tilts the helicopter backwards.



Q / Mouse wheel up - While on foot, this cycles through CJ's weapon and while

in cars/boats, this makes CJ to look left of the cars/boats, making him able

to do drive-by. In planes, this moves the rudder left and in helicopters,

this moves the facing direction of the helicopter to the left.  If you are

using keyboard + mouse control, you cannot auto-aim as the mouse already

excellent aiming.  If you are using joypad, this button also serves as

auto-aiming.



E / Mouse wheel down - While on foot, this cycles through CJ's weapon and

while in cars/boats, this makes CJ to look right of the cars/boats, making

him able to do drive-by. In planes, this moves the rudder right and in

helicopters, this moves the facing direction of the helicopter to the right.

If you are using keyboard + mouse control, you cannot auto-aim as the mouse

already excellent aiming.  If you are using joypad, this button also serves

as auto-aiming.



C - This make CJ to crouch when on foot and does nothing when in vehicles.



Caps Lock - This does nothing when on foot and horns when in cars. It also

helps balance the helicoptor.



Mouse Movement - While on foot, the mouse movement controls the direction CJ 

is facing and while on cars/boats/planes, the mouse movement controls the

camera, moving it around will circle the camera around you and pretty much

give you any view you want, though it always defaults back to where it

started (except for first person camera view, in this case mouse movement is

useless). In helicopter, moving the mouse will move the helicopter in that

direction. In order to change camera direction in a helicopter, hold RMB

while moving the mouse will do.



Space - While on foot, the Space bar makes CJ to sprint. Tapping Space

quickly will make CJ even runs faster. In vehicles, the Space bar is used

for hand braking. The Space bar can also be used to skip most of the

cutscene in the game.



Return / F - Return / F is used while on foot to either get into a car or

onto a motorcycle and such.  It also kind of acts as the initiation button

for special events and such like buying a drink. If you press Return / F

while in your car, then you will get out of the car, hooray! The Return

also acts as a confirmation when you are browsing the menu.



LShift - LShift is the jump key, when you jump and grab onto a ledge it also 

allows you to climb up the ledge.  While fighting you can use LShift to

block, but who does that.



LCtrl / LMB - LCtrl / LMB is the attack key while on foot allowing you to 

punch and kick and do other such violent things.  If you press LCtrl / LMB

while in a car you can shoot, and also while you're holding a gun.  If

you're in water it will allow you to dive under, or open your parachute

while you fall. LCtrl / LMB is your basic backup emergency button. LCtrl

while on a bike will perform a bunny hop.



RMB - While on foot, RMB will aim the weapon at the enemy and while on

vehicle, holding RMB and move mouse will move the camera view direction.



MMB - Whether on foot or in vehicles, press MMB will look behind.



Tab - Tab has numerous functions while on foot, it lets you look at your

statistics but when you have a gun out it also acts as an alternate fire

button.  In a car it doesn't do anything but you can bunny hop on a bike.



2 - Activates sub-missions when you are in special cars like fire-truck. Also

release or retracks the landing gear when you are in the planes.



Note: you cannot auto aim in PC version if you are not using a joypad because

you can aim prettily easily with the mouse! While if you are using joypad,

the button for scrolling to the next/previous weapon is used for scrolling to

the next/previous target when aiming.

When the game begins you will be dropped off in an alley in front of a BMX 

bicycle.  Get onto the bike using Return / F and start peddling by holding W.

On bicycles you can peddle faster by tapping W rather than holding it.  Your

first destination is the location marked with the "CJ" icon on your minimap.

Ride your bike there and you'll find a red marker outside the house.  Get off

the bike and step into it.

After a couple of scenes in this mission you'll find yourself forced to flee 

on bicycle.  There's some gang members in a car chasing you.  Your goal is 

simply to follow the lead biker with the marker over his head, but your safety 

comes first so if the car is approaching speed up or slow down to avoid 

becoming a drive-by victim.  Eventually they split up and you have a new 

person to follow.  Remember that just because you lose sight of them it 

doesn't mean you've lost track of them, the blue icon always remains on your 

radar so follow that and make your way back to your house.  Get on the red 

marker to end the mission and get some respect.  Now you can go into your 

house to save your game, as well as use your garage to store a car which will 

remain there even when you turn off the game.  To start the next mission first 

go into your house and save the game using the diskette icon.  Now as you 

leave the house you'll get a phone call.  Answer it by pressing Return / F, 

now head next door and step on the marker to trigger the next mission.

Get into the car and a yellow icon will appear on the map.  Drive there and 

get out of your car.  You'll have to do some tagging of your own here.  Each 

tag is marked on your map as a dark green square.  There's one on the house 

behind you and another on the wall of the alley nearby.  The tags primarily 

serve as the game's equivalent of hidden packages.  Get all of them for a 

reward.  Return to Sweet's car and drive to the next marker.  There are a 

couple of tags here.  Get the first one on the wall and then go down the alley 

toward the marker.  A couple of gang members are here, run up to them and 

distract them with a little paint to the face and then tag the nearby wall.  

Now make your way to the marker and hop over the two fences.  You need to get 

up onto the building and tag the wall on your right.  Now jump down and hop 

into Sweet's car.  Now just get back to your neighborhood, no problem.

Hop into a car and Ryder will get in with you.  When you get to the red marker 

watch the scene then go across the street and beat up the guy located at the 

red marker.  Ryder will follow you and help, but all you really need to do is 

target him with RMB and just attack with LMB, he won't even have a chance to 

retaliate.  Pick up the baseball bat after the job is done and get to the red 

marker.  Enter the house and use your bat to start beating up all the guys in 

here.  Now all you have to do is hop in a car and drive back to your house.

Start the mission by getting into the car and driving to the restaurant marked 

on your map.  Something comes up and your new mission becaomes capping those 

guys before they cap your homies.  Start driving after them, keeping up as 

much as possible so that the people in your car climb out the window and start 

to fire.  Don't worry about trying to smash the car, damage done from the guns 

is more than enough to take them out.  Once the car catches on fire the gang 

members hop out, this becomes an easy task.  Stay in your car and simply run 

them down, the only thing you have to avoid is their car because once it's 

been on fire for more than a few seconds it'll explode.  When the gang members 

are dead drive back to the house, and then take Sweet home from there.  After 

this mission and answering your cell phone you can access the gym, working out 

allows you to build up some muscle and tone up your body.

Your first task is to get into the car and drive to Emmet's house.  When you 

arrive a scene occurs and you have to complete a little tutorial.  It's quite 

easy, now that you're equipped with a gun you can target objects using the RMB 

and then fire with LMB, it pretty much guarantees a hit.  For the next part,

if you are using a joypad, you can cycle between targets while holding RMB.  

Also note that if you want, you can move your mouse to fire 

manually (and it's a must if you are using keyboard + mouse control, and there

will be a tutorial for this in just a moment.)  Press C to crouch and fire for

better accuracy.  Now for the final test use the mouse and aim your gun at the

gas tank of the car, it's located right above the rear wheel.  Get into your

car and drive Sweet home, but that's still not the end of the mission.  Before

it's over you've got to get yourself some new threads.  Drive over to the

local Binco, marked on your map as always, and step inside.  Remember that

anything you buy here can be accessed later at your house, so don't hesitate

to pick up more than one outfit.  Simply leaving the store triggers the end of

the mission.

Hop into the car and drive to the red marker.  All you have to do is drive 

here, the guys in the back will be the ones doing the shooting.  As the game 

mentions looking left and right with Q and E can be quite 

beneficial.  Just because they're the ones with the gun however doesn't mean 

there's nothing for you to do, why not start running them down with your car 

to speed things up?  Drive from gang group to gang group, each one is marked 

separately on your map.  The last group can be found down in the park area, 

once you've taken care of them you'll have a two star wanted level.  This 

means the cops will be after you, and they're mad enough not to give up no 

matter where you hide.  This means of course you need to find some way to get 

rid of the tail, do this by getting your car painted.  The paint shop is the 

spray can on your map, located due South from here.  It doesn't matter how 

close the cops are when you drive in, doing so will make them forget all about 

you.  Now you've got two flashing stars, this means that if you do absolutely 

anything wrong for the next couple minutes or so, both stars will come back 

and you'll have to get the car sprayed again.  Avoid this by driving carefully 

back to your home turf for a nice five-hundred dollar reward.

If you've got a car in your garage then now's the time to pull it out, you 

have to get to Sweet and save his ass as fast as you possibly can, his health 

meter is viewable at the upper right corner, if it drains then that's game 

over.  Find a car and gun it to the location of the red triangle on your map.  

You can get out of your car and shoot them down if you want but it's far 

easier and less dangerous simply to run them over.  If your car sets on fire 

try to position it near a bunch of them and bail out so your car becomes a 

fiery explosive weapon of death.  Once they're taken care of Sweet and his 

girl hop in the car, but you'll have to be careful the gang members are 

following you all the way back.  Don't bother trying to take them out just get 

back home and park on the red marker to end the mission and gain more respect.

Snag yourself a set of wheels and get to the marker on the map.  You'll need 

to get yourself a car that bounces, and that's just what you're going to get.  

You can control the hydraulics with num pad 2, 4, 6 and 8.  Drive the car 

into the garage and you can customize it the way you want.  When you're nice 

and happy with it, drive the thing out and get to the lowerider meeting.  

After the scene you have to participate in a little minigame.  Bet something 

and make yourself some money.  Using num pad 2, 4, 6 and 8 to bounce 

your hydraulics in time with the music in order to complete the mission.  Some 

people have a lot of trouble with this kind of thing, obviously trying to 

explain that it's easy isn't going to help anyone.  All I can tell you is to 

keep an eye on what you're doing, don't focus on the rating at the top, you 

don't have to be anywhere near perfect to complete this.  When the little 

arrow moves through the circle press that particular direction right about 

when it's in the middle and you're home free.  It's all you need to do to end 

the mission.  Now you can do some racing and take part in Cesar's missions.

This mission begins at the local Ammunation which is marked by the large S on 

the map.  It seems your job is to take out some opposing gang members, and 

what better place to begin that task than at a gun shop.  Pick yourself up 

some weaponry and drive to the green icon and purple grid on the map.  Get out 

of the car and equip your new firearm.  Run around in this area and start 

shooting Ballas (guys with dark jackets and red/white headbands, or the guys 

in the purple jackets.)  When you've killed three it provokes a gang war and 

you have to defend yourself by any means necessary.  There's three main waves 

of attacks, the first of gang members with baseball bats, the second with 

handguns and the third with submachine guns.  They all appear on your map so 

you should be able to locate and defeat them easily.  Use the walls and 

terrain to your advantage, and also make sure you pick up the health items and 

body armour as those submachine guns can really hurt.  After killing all of 

them the turf is yours and the leader is flushed out, simply shoot him down to 

end the mission and gain more respect.  Coloured territories now appear on 

your map, note that you can turn them off in the map menu.

Start by recruiting some gang members for this mission, to do that hold RMB

(not with a gun equipped) and target some of your buddies, press G.  When you

get into the car they'll get in along with you.  Quickly drive to the

destination marker before the time runs out, the game gives you more than you

need.  Jump over the wall and approach sweet.  You can give commands to the

gang by tapping either G or H, holding either of these will disband the gang

completely.  Now run into the cemetery with guns blazing, be careful of

Ballas equipped with body armour.  Killing enough of them nets you a couple

of stars cop wanted level, and puts a blue dot on your radar showing the car

you need to get into.  Drive Sweet and whatever gang members you have back to

the home to finish the mission.

 \_/      (0002A)     \------------------------------------------------------o



Take the gang car with all your buddies and drive it to the motel.  Right 

after the scene you're throwing into a rather dangerous situation, there are 

S.W.A.T. teams all over the place, don't try and do anything here quickly run 

through the door beside you with the yellow arrow.  Kill the first couple of 

guys you see in here and pay special attention to the vending machine, for a 

mere $1 you can replenish half your health as often as you like.  Start making 

your way down the hall using your Shotgun to take out all the cops in your 

way.  Each time you come to a corner be sure to be careful of guys hiding 

behind objects and even coming down from the roof.  If you need to be able to 

move while firing then the submachine gun is your weapon of choice.  Never 

ever hesitate to go back and replenish your health again, it's always better 

to be safe than sorry.  When you get far enough into the motel you'll find 

Sweet in one of the rooms.  Af you're trying to escape a helicopter appears 

and attacks, you should be able to take care of it with little effort, simply 

equip the SMG and fire upon the guys hanging off the side.  When they drop you 

can safely knock the chopper out of the sky and follow sweet down the stairs.



At the bottom it's not over yet, you're picked up in the car and the police 

begin to give chase.  You're hanging out of the car with an AK-47 in your 

hands and its you job to destroy all the cop cars behind you.  This is 

actually the most dangerous part of the mission, you can see your car health 

on the right and the cop's guns deal quite a bit of damage.  Be sure to fire 

non-stop at the police cars behind you, don't bother focusing on the 

helicopter unless there aren't any cars around.  When a cop car sets on fire 

you don't have to worry about damage or anything, the explosion won't have any 

effect on your car.  When the other cops start to attacks on bikes take them 

out quickly or else they can hop onto your car and attack you directly, if 

this happens simply take aim and knock them off.  Repeat this whole thing for 

as long as you can, when the gun jams you know you're home free.  Enjoy the 

scene that follows and the mission is over, giving you well earned respect.

As this mission starts you get a phone call from someone telling you to meet 

him, so take the car and drive to the yellow marker on the minimap.  When you 

arrive step out of the car and get into the one waiting in the alley.  Watch 

the scene and get ready to find yourself a vehicle.  You need to get to the 

destination marker before the time limit runs out, time of course being 

represented by Sweet's health.  When you arrive you'll find a war going on 

with numerous Ballas, before stopping on the marker run over as many of them 

as you can to save yourself some trouble later.  Once you've stopped on the 

marker the real war begins.  Use whatever arsenal you've got to fight off the 

Ballas, but it's not going to be so easy.  Many more start driving up in their 

cars.  I find that one effective way to take them out with minimal risk to you 

is to get in a car and drive up beside them, they'll shoot your vehicle enough 

to set it on fire.  You'll have enough time to escape but they'll remain there 

like idiots and be blown up in the process.  When all the Ballas are dead a 

scene occurs and this marks the transition to the next area of town.  The 

first mission in this section can be found in Tenpenny's section.

It's time to go and pick up OG Loc.  Get into the car and drive to the marker 

on your map.  Now take him to the other marker and go up to the house and ring 

the doorbell.  Look out, he's getting away!  Hop onto the motorcycle and chase 

him down.  You'll have to navigate between alleys, roads, and highways.  He 

tends to make some pretty sharp turns at the last second so try to keep up, 

but avoiding just flying down the road at top speed.  When you fall off the 

bike he'll give you a chance to get back on by stopping at a certain point, 

but make sure you're quick.  It's very hard to avoid crashing while you're 

constantly trying to look at your map so it might take a couple tries just for 

you to get used to the route.  When you reach the end a bunch of gangsters 

ambush you, jump off the bike then find cover.  Duck down with Return / F

and fire whatever gun you have to clean them up.  Now all you have to do is 

take OG to the dot on the map and the mission is complete.

Take Big Smoke's car and drive to the red marker.  After a scene it becomes 

your job to take out this guy by any means necessary.  Lucky for you he's just 

running around on foot, chase him down yourself (using a car doesn't work to 

well since he has a habit of just hopping back alley fences) and when you 

catch up just whip out the submachine gun and cap his ass.

This is what I would consider to be the first somewhat difficult mission in 

the game, and while it isn't particuarly hard by any means, it definitely has 

the potential to be frustration.  Drive Smoke's car to Unity Station for your 

next set of instructions.  After the scene hop onto the dirt bike with Smoke.  

What you need to do is keep up with the train and take out the four guys on 

top.  Now you have to not only adjust your speed so you stay right beside 

them, but you also have to adjust your distance so that you aren't too close 

to the train.  Being right beside the train the whole time will just lead Big 

Smoke to hit the train itself with every shot, the best location is on the 

right side of the train, and on the right side of the outer tracks.  As you 

keep going you'll see a car in the distance, don't be too close to the front 

of the train when you approach it because it explodes when the train hits it.  

Next danger is when you approach the tunnel, watch out for the oncoming train, 

you should be safe if you're sticking with the right side of the tracks.  



In the next area you need to ride up the dirt path on the side and stay close 

to the edge of the cliff while Smoke fires upon the gangsters.  Cross the 

bridge to the other side and drive down the hill in front of the train so you 

have the chance to get back on the right side.  Now at this point the train 

speeds up, and around the next bend is the last chance you have to finish them 

off otherwise it disappears forever, so do what you can.  When they're dead 

just drive Big Smoke back to his house to get some well earned respect.

The mission starts like any other, driving to a single destination, but things 

quickly escalate.  You're automatically given and gun and have to fire on 

every single person you see in this room.  Remain crouched the entire time, in 

fact you're in a really good position so all you have to do is keep holding RMB 

and LMB to fire, changing targets periodically each time you 

make a kill.  Stay crouched and make your way to the back door.  Outside you 

start in the open so find somewhere to hide quickly and fire on all the guys 

out here.  Once they're dead, the mission has only just begun.



Now with you on the back of Sweet's bike you can aim your gun and fire 

backward, which is good, because you're about to be chased by countless 

police.  When the guys on motorcycles come up quickly pick off the guys 

standing up on the back so they can't fire at you anymore, then aim more 

carefully to eliminate the driver.  A huge truck comes out of nowehere, you 

can fire on it since you're given infinite ammo but you won't be destroying 

it.  When you come to a roadblock don't bother trying to aim at the people, 

simply fire on the cars beside them and create a fiery explosion.  The chase 

continues down into a waterway with motorcycles and FBI cars coming from all 

directions.  You can take out the drivers by aiming through the windshield.  

Smoke will take care of dodging all the dangers, you don't need to worry about 

that, the only thing you need to worry about near the end is shooting the 

sewer gate for him so you can drive through.  It doesn't take long to lose the 

tail when you're out, and you get a bit more respect for doing it.

Head to Ryder's house beside yours in between 12:00 and 20:00 to begin the 

mission.  Remember if you need to do a little time traveling, saving the game 

makes time jump forward by six hours.  Get into Ryder's truck and start 

driving.  You'll notice that you have a time limit, eight minutes, it's more 

than enough to complete the mission.  Drive to the destination which is just 

on the outer road near the edge of town and get out of the car.  Once you're 

inside the house you'll have to remain completely silent, you can judge this 

easily by the little noise meter you have at the side.  Avoid letting it fill 

all the way up.  The first weapon crate is in the room on the right, pick it 

up using Return / F.  The second crate can be found at the top of the 

stairs, and the last one at the end of the upstairs hall.  Remember to be very 

quiet, the gameonly really gives you a time limit to scare you into thinking 

you need to move fast, but really all it's going to do is scare you into 

accidentally being caught.  Ignore the time limit unless you REALLY screwed up 

the drive over here, drop off three crates in the truck and drive it to the 

lockup.  The garage opens and you can park it to end the mission.

For this mission you need to get to the train first, when you arrive there are 

a number of gangsters to take out.  Running them over is a safe and easy way 

to do it, but note a couple of things.  First you're going to have to use this 

car again and the end of the mission, so try not to smash it up, and second 

only run over the gang members with the arrows over their heads, some people 

from Grove Street are fighting here too in green.  Once the gang members are 

dead some new ones appears, once they're dead hop onto the back of the train 

by stepping onto the red marker.  While the train is moving you've got to 

throw the crates down to Ryder, do this by holding RMB and aiming just above 

his head, now release and you should be able to throw it to him no problem.  

When enough crates have been caught it switches to you driving and Ryder on 

the back.  All you have to do is get to the nearby Pay 'n Spray, then from 

there just drive back home and park on the red marker to end the mission.

sure you have a gun) and climb over the wall.  Kill the guard near the gate 

and shoot the switch he's standing beside to open it.  Keep firing on any 

other personnel here until the truck stops in front of the large door.  Shoot 

the switch on the side of that too and take care of the people you find 

inside.  You need to use the forklift to get six boxes out of here and 

load them into Ryder's truck.  There's four boxes in the storehouse and two 

more outside just beside Ryder's truck.  When all the boxes are in get into 

the van and start driving.  Two army vehicles will be coming up behind you to 

chase you down, weave in and out of traffic to distract them, or try to aim 

your back end in their direction and press Caps Lock to have Ryder throw an

explosive crate at them.  Get to the back lot of the building located at the

yellow dot on your map to trigger a scene and bring an end to this mission.

 \_/      (00051)     \------------------------------------------------------o



This mission must be done at night, so head there anytime between 22:00 and 

06:00.  Find yourself a car and drive to the beach party.  There's an open van 

there with a red marker behind it, stand on the marker and respond positively.  

After being asked to dance respond positively again.  I really don't know what 

to say here, from experience and playing this game I know that a lot of 

people have trouble with this mission, so much trouble in fact that some get 

to the point where they can progress no further in the game.  I know for a 

fact you will be reading this and thinking either how you absolutely cannot do 

it, or think that sounds completely ridiculous because the mission is so easy.  

Well I fall into the latter category to be honest, you have to get over 4000 

points here and it really wasn't that hard to get over 7000 on the first try.  

If you don't know the keys, if you can't get the timing or you just don't 

have the endurance to go through the whole thing which actually goes on for 

quite awhile then you're going to have a problem.  All I can offer are some 

tips, but to be honest most of it is in your hands.



First of all practice enough to learn the exact timing.  A perfect press is 

one pressed just as the arrow icon passes through and touches the left edge 

of the timing circle, pretty much meaning you press it exactly when he arrow 

is dead centre in the middle.  If you're off by a little bit your timing goes 

from "perfect" to "good" which is just fine, you can pass this mission with 

nothing but good scores, you don't need a single perfect.  Once you've got the 

timing down pretty well, DO NOT listen to the girl when she speaks, if she 

says you need practice or something that it doesn't necessarily mean you're 

doing bad at all, maybe you were off on one key.  The problem is that 

something like that breaks your concentration, again do not listen to her, 

mute the volume if you have to.  That last tip does conflict a bit with the 

next one though, the timing on the music along with the keys is quite good 

so don't hesitate to have the beats in the music help you with your timing, if 

you react better to audio cues than visual ones go for it.



When you manage to complete it and successfully earn 4000 points, respond to 

her question positively and then get into the van after her.  Now all you need 

to do is drive it to the lockup to earn yourself some respect.

 \_/      (00052)     \------------------------------------------------------o



Find a car and get yourself to Madd Dogg's house, he lives in a mansion up on 

a hill outside in the outskirts of town.  The main entrance to the house is 

around the back, find the yellow icon in front of the door.  When you get 

inside you're given a knife and a tutorial on how to do a stealth kill.  

Crouch down and approach the guard slowly, hold RMB and press LMB when you're

right behind him and you should be able to make the kill quietly.  In the next

room a guard is patrolling around in circles, follow him and go through the

door at the upper corner.  A guard starts to approach here, crouch down and

hide in the shadows of one of the rooms on the left.  Now continue down the

hall.



In the next room you need to crouch and walk past the bar, staying as close to 

it as you can and past the couches as well.  When you come to a darkened room 

on your left go into it and get the body armour then out the other door, you 

should be able to sneak up on a guard that way but keep an eye on your 

minimap.  Grab the Rhyme Book out of the recording studio and get the hell out 

of there.  You should find a BMX bicycle outside the backdoor now which will 

provide more than adequate transportation back to the Burger Shot.

 \_/      (00053)     \------------------------------------------------------o



There's a few parts to this mission, first you have to get over to the Burger 

Shot and steal the guy's car.  When you arrive it seems he has already left, 

so smash into the side of the car to force him out and steal it yourself.  

Since you already damaged the car when you crashed into it, you'll need to get 

it repaired.  A Pay 'n Spray is highlighted on your minimap, head there now 

and get the car looked at.  Now from this point you must avoid crashes at all 

costs otherwise you'll have to drive all the way back here and get it painted 

again.  Your destination is quite far away and you need to be there before 10 

p.m., or 22:00.  When you arrive parallel park the car between the other two 

and wait to leave.  Tap the drive key to keep your speed controlled so that 

you neither crash into the car ahead of you, nor let the car behind you hit 

you from the back.  You don't have to drive very far like this.  When the 

people are in the car, everyone comes after you.  Make your way to the docks, 

somewhere along the way you'll lose them.  Now what you have to do is drive 

really fast toward the end of the dock and hold Return / F to bail out, don't

worry, the game will give you a message when the time is right.  Send the car

over the edge to complete the mission and get some more respect.

Well you've got to change your clothes and get a haircut.  The barber shop is 

directly across the street from the Burger Shot so you've got no problem 

there, just head over on foot and choose a hair style you like.  Now make your 

way to the OG icon again on your map which just happens to be across the 

street from your house, making it the perfect opportunity to save your game.  

Head across the street to the house party, suddenly the Ballas are attacking 

your home turf.  Fend them off with whatever weaponry you have and then pick 

up the submachine guns they drop so you can really stock up on ammo.  After 

the first wave of them come another group appears on top of the bridge.  Use 

manual targeting to pick them off one by one and make them fall.  Now another 

group attacks from the alley beside your house, and when you aren't expecting 

it yet another from behind you.  Your gang can take care of the ones in the 

alley, get yourself some cover and face behind them so you can protect your 

buddies here.  When all the Ballas are dead the mission is complete.

Find the officers in the donut shop and start the mission.  You get a free cop 

car for this one which isn't so bad.  First you've got to find the molotov 

cocktails so head to the destination marker on your map.  When you arrive 

you'll find a building with five windows, you need to throw five molotov 

cocktails through it.  Every time you throw a molotov cocktail through the 

window some more gang members will show up, so make sure you either have a gun 

or quick access to a car so you can run 'em down.  To get a molotov cocktail 

through the window stand about six of seven steps back and hold LMB for just

under a second, there are numerous different distances and strengths at which

to throw, just pick one that works for you.



When the house starts burning down CJ notices that a girl is trapped inside.  

Quick, run into the building and go upstairs to find her.  It seems the door 

is blocked by fire, but you can find an extinguisher in the kitchen.  Equip it 

once you have it and used it to put out the flames at the door.  Now navigate 

back to the front door with her in tow, putting out the fires as you come to 

them.  Make sure she's close by when you exit the house and then drive her 

home when you get outside.  Her name is Denise and she becomes your first 

girlfriend in the game.  Go hang out with her sometimes, otherwise you might 

find she loses interest.  This also opens up Sweet's last mission.

Get down to the warehouse and see what is afoot.  Arriving you'll be attacked 

by all sorts of people, use your car to make sure work of them.  You can also 

take advantage of some of the conveniently placed explosive barrels and such 

with your gun.  Don't forget to hop up onto the crates beside the door and 

grab the body armour.  Now shoot the button beside the door to open up the 

warehouse, get ready to shoot all the people who are waiting on the other 

side.  As the game mentions you can hold RMB and move with the left arrow / A

or right arrow / D to strafe and see around corners before actually proceeding.

When you notice red barrels around a corner and enemies nearby, be sure to 

shoot at the barrels rather than the enemies themselves.  After going around 

the first couple of turns you'll find a full health item where the two walls 

meet at the corner.  On the next corner you'll find some Body Armour.



Make your way around to the large open area, there are plenty of explosive 

drums there to take advantage of.  At the top of the stairs in the room are a 

couple of gang members and the Russian Arms Dealer you you absolutely must 

kill.  He does however have an incredible amount of armour and life, so rather 

than trying to shoot him now, save your ammo and just follow him.  As he runs 

back to where you first entered the warehouse area, run in front of him, get 

on the motorcycle and start causing as much damage to the car in front of your 

as possible.  When he gets on continue to shoot and it shouldn't be long at 

all before the thing is ablaze, the guy is dead, and the mission is passed.

With the camera in hand you've got a little snooping to do.  Find yourself a 

vehicle, preferably some kind of cycle and start peddling up that huge 

mountain to the North.  You can't miss it.  The path is long and winding but 

very serene, it takes quite a long time to actually make it to the top of the 

mountain, but fortunately this mission only requires you to scale only a mere 

fraction of it.  You'll come to a cabin being guarded by some police officers, 

quietly sneak into the cabin without the FBI guys noticing you.  You won't 

even need a weapon here, it's painfully easy just to punch him to death right 

there.  Pull out the camera and snap a quick shot of the corpse, this alerts 

the cops and in order to avoid being shot to death run out the front door and 

jump onto the nearby dirt bike.  Ride it down the mountain and back to where 

you first started the mission in order to satisfy the cops.  Soon after the 

mission is over you'll get a cell phone call about your next mission.  Head to 

the question mark on the radar, and the Catalina's Missions section.

There's a couple of men that need assassinating and you're the one who can get 

the job done.  It takes place all the way back in Los Santos though so it's 

going to be a bit of a drive, do NOT use a car for this mission, it will make 

things much much harder.  Basically what you need to do is go up to the 

construction site and grab the sniper rifle, after that head down to the train 

station where you'll find the train is just leaving.  Follow it along the very 

long trip back to Los Santos, numerous times you'll find yourself in a tunnel 

with a train coming in the opposite direction which is why I recommended using 

a motorcycle for this mission, speed being the other reason.  Arriving at the 

Los Santos train station the man gets off the train.  Keep your distance, a 

little meter at the side shows how suspicious he is of being followed and if 

it starts to go up you need to turn around immediately.  He'll call for a cab 

at the top and now you need to follow this cab around town still keeping your 

distance as much as possible.  Eventually it leads to the docks, exit your 

vehicle and pull out the sniper rifle.  When the two men are conversing fire 

off one shot to kill one of them, and pick off the other while he panics.

 \_/      (00065)     \------------------------------------------------------o



There's a long trip ahead of your here, find yourself a fast motorcycle to at 

least make it enjoyable.  When you eventually get across the bridge climb up 

the hill on the opposite side of the road.  If you have a sniper rifle this 

will be perfect, stay low in the bushes and aim toward the guy with the arrow 

over his head.  A single head shot will bring him down and he'll drop the 

evidence case.  Unfortunately one of the guards will likely pick it up 

quickly, but at that point you can just equip a different gun (or stick with 

the sniper rifle if you want) and take them all out as they run toward you.



The other contingency is if you were unable to kill the guy and he makes it to 

the helicopter.  Now you need to get into a helicopter yourself.  Before doing 

so make sure to kill all the guards who are shooting at you because in the 

time it takes off they are more than capable of shooting down the helicopter 

you're in.  Don't bother trying to attack the other chopper just follow it 

until it sets down, that's your chance to kill the guy and get the dossier.  

Whichever way you do it the mission is complete and you get no reward.

This mission starts in that little hamlet out in the middle of nowhere.  Find 

some vehicle and drive there for a scene.  After the scene your mission 

becomes clear.  Get in whatever vehicle you can, even if it means that un-

steerable thing down near the graveyard.  Chase him around and stay behind 

him, you can work on trying to shoot him as you go but your primary focus 

should be on keeping up.  Eventually he'll reach a small suburb and just drive 

in circles forever, now's your chance to simply chase him around this area 

doing drive-bys or whatever it takes to destroy his car.  The mission is 

complete after the final cutscene, no reward (besides your life of course.)

 \_/      (00071)     \------------------------------------------------------o



In order to begin this mission first you must find yourself a lowrider car 

which just happen to drive around quite frequently around the red marker where 

Cesar Vialpando is waiting (CV on your minimap.)  In fact you'll likely find 

one in his driveway is you look.  The first thing you do in the mission is 

follow him to the lowrider race, just keep up and you'll be fine.  Position 

yourself at the starting line and get ready to race.  The race is difficult 

because low-riders are notorious for sliding, if you come into contact with 

any cars or try to make turns while skidding at top speed you're just going to 

spin out.  The key is to get ahead at the beginning of the race since the 

other drivers will be aggressive and try to spin you out, drive on the 

sidewalk if you have to in order to get out front at the start.  Now your 

destinations are the red light pillars you see, they're both in front of your 

face and on the minimap.  The most important feature however is that within 

them is a blue arrow that shows the direction you're going to have to turn 

since most of the time you can't divert your eye from the screen.  When 

approaching a turn break hard BEFORE you actually get there so you skid while 

moving forward and don't spin, the take the turn at a reduced speed.  This 

should keep you in control and far enough ahead to win the race with little 

difficulty, it's not too long and your reward is a nice $1000.00.



Tactic:

In order for the race to me a lot easier, I would suggest to use Voodoo for

the race instead of Blade or Savanna that spawn frequently in Los Santos.

Voodoo can sometimes be found just the road behind CJ's house and it can cut

corner quite well without spinning out easily.

This mission isn't so much of a mission as it is a cutscene when you arrive, 

and since this is a spoiler free guide there's nothing really to say.  Once 

the scene is over a familiar icon appears and it's time to head back there.

 \_/      (00073)     \------------------------------------------------------o



Wu Zi Mu is another street race type of mission that takes place out in the 

country.  The difficulty of this mission in comparison with the last one is 

substantial.  The race will take more than twice as long, but more difficult 

than the time is the terrain.  In fact I would barely consider this a race, 

because even going at a very safe and slow speed I was never able to even see 

the other cars behind me, the challenge comes from two places.  First you need 

to watch out for the very hilly terrain and avoid flipping your car, second 

since the race is so long and bogged with nature's obstacles, you also have to 

avoid destroying your car.  These two things can be rather difficult.



Get into the front of the pack when the race begins and stay there.  

Understand that there are going to be large red light pillars everywhere, and 

while it may seem easiest at times to drive directly toward them, the dirt 

path you are on will always curve toward them, and driving on the path is far 

safer than trying to shortcut your way over a bumpy field or hill.  The race 

takes you through numerous locations like small towns but it will mostly keep 

you out in the woodland area.  Drive extremely carefully, especially around 

some of those sharp turns and bumpy roads which are really likely to flip you 

depending on what car you're using.  I used the car just beside Catalina's 

cabin as it was pretty fast and easy to handle.  You should do the same.

This is another racing mission however you step into the red marker as a 

person and the car is automatically assigned to you, don't worry, it's a nice 

one.  Again similar to the last mission it's good to get into first place 

eariler on since it's far easier to stay in first place than fight your way 

there.  Once you've established yourself you'll need to focus on the course.  

There are a number of shortcuts you can take, most of them involve bumpier 

terrain but the payoff is worth it, take the S shaped winding road in the 

beginning, you can just cut across the grass and save a lot of time.  A few 

other things to keep in mind, after you pass through the little shed area with 

the piled logs you'll soon be approaching a bridge, be sure to stay on the 

path here since any shortcuts you try to take will likely lead to a dead drop.  

This race isn't much different or longer than the previous one, the most 

difficult part about it I find is the dirt flying up into the screen as you 

zoom down the path.  Complete the mission to get a deed for a San Fierro 

garage.  Now get out of your car and answer you cell phone.

This is going to be quite a trip assuming you're coming here right after 

Badlands.  It's North of Los Santos and you're nowhere near it, be sure to 

check your main map for the destination as the minimap can sometimes be 

misleading when destinations are so far away.  When you arrive there's a scene 

and the first mission is initiated.  This isn't so much a mission as a lead in 

to other missions.  Start by heading to the nearest icon, the gas station.

Arriving at the gas station hop into the tanker truck.  First you have to 

actually get the tanker part attached, to do that simply drive in front of the 

nearby tanker which is marked on your map, hold Q and E or simply hold MMB to

look behind you then press S to slowly reverse into place.  When the tanker is

attached the car starts to give chase, you need to get to your destination

before the tanker is destroyed.  In terms of the gunfire you're going to take

this will be quite easy, just make sure the tanker section doesn't get slammed

hard by anything on the road and be sure not to go around a corner too fast.  

Following these basic specs should get you to your destination before too 

long, you need to go around a little bit but just look at you map to get an 

idea where you're going.  It's the little fenced lot just past the gas 

station, park your red on the red spot to net yourself a cool five grand.  

Following this you get a phone call and a symbol for your next mission.

You'll automatically be given a quadbike at the beginning of this mission to 

chase down the other robbers.  Catalina takes care of all the shooting so all 

you need to do is drive, which isn't exactly easy because this quadbike thing 

reacts crazily to just about every bump.  You'll have your hands full just 

trying to stay upright.  Fortunately this chase goes on for an extremely long 

time, you can fall off over and over and still catch up to finish them off.  

The important thing to note is that two of them carry briefcases, you'll need 

to get both in order to finish the mission so if Catalina kills someone and 

the game tells you to pick up the briefcase, make sure you hop off and do it.  

As you head from little town to town they'll split up and just cruise the 

streets here and there.  Make Catalina's job easier by ramming them as you 

chase them down.  Once the three robbers are eliminated and the two briefcases 

are retrieved, get yourself a more stable ride and drive back to Catalina's 

cabin for a nice 1000$ reward and a couple a nice new work prospect.

Arriving at the bank you're put into a position where you have to 

continusuosly point your gun at all the people here in order to keep them from 

setting off the alarm.  You can hold RMB to target and keep switching between 

them with the Q and E but eventually someone's going to press the alarm

anyway.  When this occurs shoot anyone who attacks you and make your rounds of

the bank, destroying all three ATM machines.  Follow Catalina out into the

back alley and shoot your way through all the cops in this area, auto-target

to find them as quick as possible if you are using joypad control and find them

manually otherwise. Then make your way to the top where you'll find two police

motorcycles.  Now you have to follow Catalina out through the country and into

the next little town where she is unfortunately knocked from her bike and put

into a rather dangerous situation.  Drive up beside her and she'll get on the

back, now all you have to do is return her to your house for a huge bonus of

$10,000.

Drive to the closest and final robbery location.  Here you'll be given a 

number of satchel charges you need to place on the door beside the counter to 

blow it open.  Once the door is blasted throw another satchel charge into the 

room and use the special detonator to set it off and open the safe.  This 

triggers a scene which eventually leads you outside and sets you up with a 

four star wanted level, quite possibly the most dangerous you'vee seen so far, 

so jump into the car you brought here and take off down the road.  You 

destination is the Pay 'n Spray in a small nearby town, just follow the icon 

on your minimap that sticks out.  Be very careful, while it isn't a long trip 

a four star wanted level will have cop cars appearing everywhere doing their 

absolute best to take you off the road, so drive carefully and watch out for 

all oncoming traffic.  Arriving at the Pay 'n Spray all you need to do is 

drive your car in, wait a minute or so for the flashing wanted level to 

disappear and then drive Catalina back to her house to complete the mission.

After arriving and watching the scene get a vehicle and make your way toward 

the farm to see if you can find the combine harvester.  When you arrive you'll 

be greeted by countless farm folk all equipped with rifles taking aim to take 

you down.  Remain in your vehicle and drive to the back of the farm where 

you'll find a large field with the combine harvester going around.  Make sure 

you understand that all these people carry very powerful rifles, each shot 

takes off more than a quarter of your health so four shots and you're dead.  

Move quickly and jump into the combine harvester.  Now you'll find an exit you 

can use at the lower corner, drive around and/or through the people here and 

make your way to the destination.  The easiest and safest way to get there is 

to make a left out of the farm and then a right onto the first dirt path.  

Carefully slide down the steep hill here.  You run very little risk of 

exploding due to gunfire, the main risk once you have the harvester is 

flipping over, but taking your chances on this hill is better than a cliff 

since once the thing flips it's almost impossible to flip back.  Drive it into 

the barn to finish the mission and earn some respect.  Head to the new icon.

 \_/      (00092)     \------------------------------------------------------o



Head up to The Truth's farm and step onto the marker.  What you need to do is 

within the time limit, burn all the weed before the cops show up, your given 

about five or six minutes to do this which is plenty of time.  There's a whole 

lot of the stuff so keep the following tips in mind.  First each time you burn 

a row, give it a once over look before moving on to the next one.  This will 

save you some frustration later when you finish but you still can't continue 

the mission because you missed one little bit.  Secondly avoid burning The 

Truth to death, but I guess that's a given.  Lastly there are a couple 

effective ways to get everything real fast.  First what you can do is go to 

one end of a patch, aim your flamethrower down at the base and hold LMB.

Just keep burning as you strafe either left or right across the 

field.  Another effective way is to stand in the middle of a row between two 

patches of the stuff, hold LMB and spin around to burn it on all sides.  

Whatever you do, it'll tell you to go and meet The Truth when finished.



Now he gives you a rocket launcher and your new task becomes to shoot the 

helicopter out of the sky.  You've got one chance at an easy shot quickly 

before the car drives off and the helicopter chases it.  No big deal if you 

miss, simply de-equip the launcher and run to the other fence where the car 

stopped.  You should be able to safely shoot down the helicopter now, just 

make sure you do it from a distance because there's a good chance it'll fall 

on your head.  The final task is to get into the van and drive to your new 

garage in San Fierro.  There's no cops or anything after you but it's a long 

trip in a not-so-sturdy car so take your sweet time getting there, you don't 

want to flip over and do the entire mission again.  Respect is your reward.

When the mission begins it's your job to go and find the two English guys who 

are far far away and lost in the desert.  Grab yourself a motorcycle or 

something so you can cut across the desert and make the trip significantly 

shorter.  As you approach the mountain don't start driving up with the 

motorcycle, there are two guys up there who need a lift and the cycle only 

seats one.  Unfortunately there aren't any four door sedans that drive around 

here either so your best bet is one of those box shaped trucks, people are 

perfectly jumping into the back of those.  It's a bit of an ordeal going up 

the path leading to the top of the mountain but it's doable.  When you arrive 

watch the scene and get the guys in the truck.  Now you have to drive over to 

the snake farm nearby, do so, watch the scene, and get ready to start 

blasting.  There's only four enemies who don't put up much of a fight at all, 

in fact you really don't even need to kill them.  Find yourself a nice four 

door car that moves a little bit faster than a stupid trucks and drive back to 

the casino on the map to trigger a brand new set of mission, and some respect.

Time to make your first rounds of San Fierro.  Get in the car and drive over

to the East side where you'll find a gas station and the red marker to park

on.  Press Caps Lock once you're on it to alert the guy working there.  Your 

next destination is the hospital on the opposite side of town.  Next place you 

want to check is just up the street from here, same deal with the car horn as 

the garage.  From here it's down to check out the police station, and then 

over to the electronics shop to pick up ZERO.  Now that you've seen the sights 

and taken in the fresh air, return home to complete the mission.

Find yourself a car and get over to the Vank Hoff Hotel.  It's not too far 

from here, on the Northeast side of town.  When you arrive you need to follow 

the valet who will be driving the car to the parking garage.  Follow him down 

there and fun him over a few times until he no longer draws breath.  Now you 

can grab his uniform (and his money!)  Return to the area where the valets are 

standing and wait for the D.A. to arrive.  He's driving a dark blue Merit car, 

the game will give your a quick view of it before it arrives.  You job is to 

identify the car and get to it before the other valet guys do.  It gives you 

three minutes to drive your car to the garage and then back again, it's not a 

lot but as long as you drive in the middle of the road, preferably on the 

street car track (watch out for streetcars) then you should be able to do it 

with even a minute remaining.  Don't let the car get smashed up or you're 

screwed though.  When you arrive back again park the car down in the 

underground parking lot and return to where the valets are standing.  There 

you'll find a red marker, simply step into it to complete the mission.

The construction site is right next door, run up the hill and grab yourself a 

bulldozer.  You will find one parked beside a portable, but don't get that 

one.  Soon after arriving a construction worker will appear in a bulldozer to 

chase you down and he'll become really obnoxious while you're trying to do 

your thing so jack his bulldozer instead, he won't bother jumping into the 

other one.  There are six portables scattered around this area, many of them 

have red barrels next to them.  Avoid hitting these barrels as they will 

indeed explode in your face.  Use your minimap to located the six portables 

and break them by crashing the bulldozer, you really don't have to be going 

very fast.  Once all the portables are destroyed you can drive over to the 

porta potty marked on and with an arrow on the screen, and push it into the 

large hole ahead.  Now all you need to do is grab one of the cement trucks and 

park it right on the red marker with the back facing the hole to trigger a 

scene and end the mission.  Answer you cell phone to unlock Driving School.

Your first destination here is quite far away.  Get yourself a fast vehicle 

like a motorcycle and drive all the way around to reach the blue marker where 

Cesar is waiting for you beside his car.  Hop in and begin the drive down to 

Angel Pine, another very long trip and you must avoid destroying the car.  

Don't worry too much if you happen to screw up, while the trip reamins long 

this mission does feature the trip skip option if you've already done it.  

Well anyway you'll eventually end up at the location in angel pine.  Ascend 

the stairs and stop on the red marker on the roof.  Now with the camera in 

your inventory you need to wait and take pictures of the faces of all the 

people who appear here, there are going to be four in total.  The first two 

appear one after another in the little alley direction in front of you.  Once 

you've got them move your focus to in front of the restaurant on your right 

where two more people will appear.  It's not very hard to do at all if you 

know where they're going to be, just make sure you know to zoom in and out

using the mouse wheel.  Completing this mission will net you three 

things, respect, a camera, and a rather long journey back to the garage.

Start by driving over to Jizzy's club, but when you try to visit him the 

bouncers won't let you through the door.  No problem, just start making your 

way up the nearby scaffold up to the top of the building.  From here you can 

jump down and land beside the skylight, use this to get inside the club.  Head 

across the upper area and down all the staircases until you reach the bottom, 

don't worry about conflicts you shouldn't have any trouble here.  There's a 

scene when you reach the main room and then Jizzy tries to escape.  Get out of 

the club and find a car to start chasing him down.  You can try and blow him 

up drive-by style is you've got the weapon but I find it much easier to corner 

his car and just drag him out of the driver's seat.  Killing him is very easy 

at this point and you can pick up the phone right away.  Make the call once 

you've got the phone and a nice $12,000 and some additional respect are yours.

Start by climbing up onto the roof of this building, there's an opening on the 

side leading to a staircase, it's not hard to find.  On top you'll find Cesar, 

your mission is to use your sniper rifle to pick off the six guys on the roof 

with the arrows above their heads.  You'll find three of them on the right 

side and three of them on the left side.  When they're capped drop down to the 

road (use the staircase) and start sniping the gang members who run out of 

there.  When you think you've taken out enough of them go up and collect their 

weapons, you're going to need as much uzi ammo as possible, try not to waste

it when fighting other enemies here.  Keep killing the gang members as you

make your way to the back where you'll be able to find an kill your target.

It's easy to snipe him from the upper walkway on the left side.  After

killing him you get one new final target who jumps over the edge.  Jump over

as well and swim toward the boat.  Now the chase begins, you won't be in any

danger yourself, the only real danger is running out of ammo.  Drive up

beside him and use drive-by techniques to blast his boat.  You'll get a cool

$15,000 dollars for this and a not-so-cool five star wanted level back on

land.



I have tried it on PC version, there is no 5 star wanted level after this

mission

Grab yourself a vehicle and head over to the mark on your map.  There's you'll 

find a little fight going on, try to run over as many gang members as you can 

before getting out of your car to minimize damage.  Climb up the stairs on the 

right side and watch the scene.  Now you need to go up onto the roof and get 

the rocket launcher however doing so is very dangerous.  Stand on the stairs 

and take out the two guys on top before grabbing the launcher.  Drop down and 

climb onto the motorcycle conveniently waiting for you on the road.  Now you 

need to follow the chopper over the highway.  The chopper will fly low the 

whole time, drive your motorcycle a fair distance ahead of it and get off.  

Equip the rocket launcher and take aim.  It's difficult to hit the chopper but 

you should be able to get off a few good shots before it passes overhead, just 

resist the temptation to fire upon it when it's directly above you.  Continue 

to try and try again to hit the chopper with the launcher until you finally 

manage to do so and net yourself $18,000 and some more respect.

First off get yourself to the bomb shop North of here.  You'll automatically 

be given a car equipped with a bomb.  From here you need to make your way down 

to the factory building.  There's two guys standing out front you need to 

kill, simply run over them.  When the gates open and you're attacked get out 

of the car and fight, you don't want to risk destroying the bomb car.  Now 

drive it to the marker on the map and ride up the ramp into the building.  

Drive it around the corner and get out again, there are quite a few enemies in 

here too.  Once you've finally taken out everyone in the area park the car on 

the red marker and press the Tab key to activate the bomb.  A few guys 

ambush the building, you're given lots of time and can get out easily even 

without sprinting so make sure you don't just mad dash, you're likely going to 

get yourself killed that way.  Instead pick off the guys as you escape.  Run 

to the main gate, killing everyone as you go, but you'll find it closes on 

you.  Your final challenge is to drive the car they brought in around to the 

back and up the giant ramp.  You don't need too much speed, just a reasonable 

amount and the cutscene will do the rest.  Simply drive the car back to your 

garage to complete the mission and get a nice $25,000 and respect.  You've 

also finally opened up the bridge leading over to the final continent.  Get 

out of your car and answer your cell phone to bring it all together.

You need to head to the club which is located under the bridge.  It's marked 

as sort of a light blue face icon on your minimap.  When you arrive you'll 

find a red marker at the front door, step on it to go inside.  Your first 

mission is to drive the fine young woman in your passenger seat over to the 

hotel.  There you will get your next set of instructions.  It's time to drive 

down to Hashbury and get your hands a little dirty.  There's a guy you'll find 

with an arrow above his head, simply park your car on top of him to finish 

that up.  The next call sends you halfway across town to a couple of thugs 

under the highway who are beating up on one of his hos.  Run them down as well 

and be sure to take their guns before anything else happens.  Your final job 

and most difficult on takes you back to the hotel where you started out.  

Arriving there you'll find two cars, a large SUV and a limo.  You need to 

destroy both of these in order to complete the mission, fortunately you should 

have picked up the uzi from the two guys so you'll have a means of shooting 

while driving beside them.  Destroy the black escort vehicle first then pull 

up beside the limo and shoot it or drive it off the road or do whatever you 

feel like doing.  Accomplishing this completes the mission for you.

Find yourself a car and drive to the location marked on the minimap.  Here you 

will find a bunch of guys on motorcycles jacking the goods from the truck, 

you're automatically assigned a motorcycle and it becomes your job to get the 

four packages back.  The four motorcyclist thieves will split up and drive 

around the city, focus on them one at a time and chase them down.  You can use 

an uzi to shoot them from their bikes and grab the package if you want, but if 

you don't have one it doesn't matter because it's just as easy to drive up 

behind them and press the LCtrl key to steal it from them.  Chase down all 

four of them and use LCtrl to steal the package back.  If you don't kill them 

they will chase after you but considering the speed you'll probably be going 

they'll have quite a hard time keeping up.  After collecting the final package 

return to the club under the bridge for a nice $5000 and some respect.

You've got six minutes to find this guy before it's too late, and only a small 

description of what to go on.  After the conversation is over they decide that 

the best chance they have is the construction site, you should know where that 

is since it's right next to Carl's garage so drive there now.  When you arrive 

new information comes up and your next destination is the dock.  Upon arrival 

there things change once again, your third (and final) try leads you to the 

airport.  Drive there and stop when you reach the large wide open air field.



There's a special signal device used to locate the van, it's in a random 

location each time so I can't tell you exactly where it is, but using the 

signal device it should not take you more than thirty seconds to locate.  When 

you do drive up beside it so the people in your car can get a good shot, this 

makes everyone jump out of the van and run after you.  Just squish them with 

your car and be ABSOLUTELY sure to take a second to hop out and grab a gun if 

you don't have one already.  The reason for this becomes clear in a moment, 

you need to destroy the van and while the other two guys will shoot at it they 

deal zero damage.  You need to destroy it yourself, since you can get into it 

you'll need a gun.  Shoot it in the gas tank just above the rear tire to blow 

it up, then get into the limo.  When leaving the airport you're stuck with a 

three star wanted level, get to the Pay 'n Spray near your garage and then 

from there return to the club for a well earned $7000 and some respect.

near the docks.  After the scene drive up to where you'll find a dirt bike 

along with a rocket launcher and a sniper rifle.  Grab everything and jump 

onto the bike.  Your task is to take out the four roadblocks before the van 

reaches them, you'll find them at the red marker.  Arriving there pull out 

your rocket launcher and aim it toward the cars, blowing them up should take 

care of most of the people around them as well.  try to pick up the uzis that 

they drop too since you may need them.  For the next couple roadblocks you 

will not only have to destroy everything on the ground, but use either the uzi 

or that sniper rifle you picked up in order to eliminate the people in the 

windows.  Doing this a total of four times is all you need to do, drive along 

with the van for the rest of the trip but there shouldn't be any 

complications, a three start wanted level is tacked on along with the $9000 

dollars you get for beating this mission, but just go find a Pay 'n Spray.

Drive over to Woozie's place and get him to come with you.  Your destination 

is just around the block.  Arriving there stay close to Woozie as you both 

make your way down the alley.  Once you reach the end a scene will occur and 

you'll be attacked by a bunch of gang members.  Hopefully you've got some 

weapons in your inventory otherwise you'll have to rely on picking up theirs 

after they die.  The first four shouldn't be a problem, just make sure you 

don't accidentally blow up their vehicle when either you or Woozie is near it.  

The next group comes in on bikes, take them out and then fight all the others 

off around the corner.  If you still have the sniper rifle from previous 

missions it works great to take out the sniper on the roof as well as any gang 

members at a significant distance.  Hop into the car and now fight your way 

past the two gang cars here.  Woozie will be able to take them out fine but 

you may want to help anyway if you've got some extra uzi ammo.  They're rather 

persistent so even when on fire they'll still be chasing after you, this is 

the most dangerous part.  Make sure you get away as quickly as possible once 

they are ablaze.  Set off back to Woozie's place for $5000 and respect.

Your job is to head on down to the airport and make a pick-up.  You can't get 

into the actual main airport part anymore but if you go around the side you 

will be able to get access to the parking garage.  Someone in this humongous 

area there's a car waiting to be picked up.  Step into it and get ready for an 

ambush.  Most of the exits are blocked off when you try and drive up to them, 

the best escape is just down the main centre path driving out the entrance 

road, a couple of guys will attack but no cars will block your path.  Outside 

it's quite easy to get past the cars blocking the road.  The most dangerous 

part comes right when you escape, two motorcycles will appear and start firing 

on your, do whatever you can to get them off your tail otherwise you'll start 

taking some serious damage, drive them off the road, shoot them through the 

window, anything.  The rest of the trip is pretty uneventful with the 

exception of a couple cars that don't move too quickly anyway, just avoid 

crashing too much and they shouldn't be able to catch up.

fact this mission is rather difficult.  The first part isn't bad but it's 

quite a trip, get into the large vehicle and drive it down to the Southern tip 

in Angel Pine.  Upon arriving there you'll find a red marker and a couple of 

dirt bikes will start to chase after you.  At this point it becomes similar to 

one of the street races except you've got people trying to kill you.  Not only 

do you have to avoid flipping the vehicle over on this rough terrain but you 

must also avoid being damaged too much.  If you doors are damaged it becomes 

possible for the pursuers to realize you're just a decoy and in such a case 

you fail.  It's hard to get ahead at the start but gradually as long as you 

aren't going at a snail's pace you should find it easier and easier to stay 

ahead of the bikes.  There's aren't as many checkpoints here but they are much 

further apart so the actual distance you need to travel resembles that of a 

race, just avoid doing anything dangerous.  Stay on the path as much as 

possible, and don't hesitate to slow down if it means remaining upright.

Before you start this mission you must get your lung capacity up, not too 

high, but about a quarter of the way or so in order to actually be allowed to 

begin.  When you've managed to accomplish this simply by spending as much time 

as possible swimming underwater, return to Woozie's and begin the mission.  It 

has you driving up to the docks and getting into the water.  What you need to 

do is get to the large boat without being taken down by the many patrol ships.  

The beginning is just sort of a familiarization with swimming, it will have 

you going under and through a couple of tunnels and equipping you with a 

knife/  Once you reach the open water start swimming toward the boat.  If you 

are spotted immediately dive underwater and keep swimming like that to force 

them to forget about you.  At that point you can surface again and remain 

stationary for some time while catching your breath.  Afterward it's time to 

get moving again.  Access to the boat is found around the back, jump up and 

climb the stairs.  Using your knife approach the men on the boat from behind 

and perform a stealth kill.  Your destination is located down the stairs at 

the front of the ship.  You will find a red marker, stand on it and press 

Return / F.  Now all you need to do is jump off the boat and swim back to the 

red marker on the shore to collect your $11,000 and some respect.

You'll automatically be put in the position of gunner for a helicopter trip to 

the boat.  Your job is to take out as many people as you can from the boat 

while airborne, this is extremely difficult because the people are just so 

small and so far away.  There's no set goal you have to reach, anyone you are 

able to take out now will just simplify things later.  Eventually it comes to 

the point where you must board the boat manually.  Get on and sneak up behind 

the nearest guy, stealth kill him and take his shotgun.  Now you can get the 

next person up top, pick up the uzi and use this as your primary weapon.



Make your way from crate to crate as you progress along the ship.  There are 

numerous little nooks, make sure you check out all of them.  When you hop up 

onto the second large area of crates you can find a full health item near the 

start.  Eventually you'll come to a point with a large opening in the floor, 

drop down and watch the scene.  Take out anyone you find at the bottom.  

Before proceeding down jump up onto the crate on the right side and you will 

find a secret stash including uzi ammo and the very important body armour.  

With this you can blast your way along to the end where you'll find your 

target, a man who does not hesitate to throw a grenade at you.  When you hear 

him yell out turn around and run in the other direction.  After his grenade 

explodes he'll charge at you and will be very easy to kill.



There's a large crate holding the refugees at the back, shoot the lock to open 

it up.  Your job however is not done yet, you still need to clear out the 

bridge.  Make your way there firing upon any enemies that block your path 

until you eventually square off against their leader.  He throws you a sword 

and you can initiate a very violent sword fight to the death, or you can 

quickly whip out that shotgun you picked up and end the battle in a single 

hit, your choice.  Now all you need to do is go out and meet the refugees at 

the mark on your minimap, this ends the mission and rewards you $15,000.

It's another of the classic "scare the crap out of the guy by driving like a 

maniac" missions.  Your goal is to get his sacre-o-meter up to max so that he 

talks and there's a few good ways of doing it.  There's no time limit in this 

mission, you fail by crashing into something at high speed and accidentally 

killing the guy.  Ironic and not-coincedental that in order to scare him you 

must travel at high speeds.  The game gives you a number of tips on how to 

scare him, drive really fast, drive against traffic, do handbrake turns and do 

insane stunts.  Insane stunts are dangerous and likely to flip your car, 

despite how adamant the game is about you performing them you don't need to in 

order to complete this mission.  Simply work on the bar gradually by driving 

down the opposite lane of traffic at high speeds, under no circumstance should 

your find yourself hitting a car head on, do whatever you can to avoid that 

whether it be handbrake turns or whatever.  Eventually you'll manage to fill 

the bar up and the guy starts talking.  Take him back to the casino.

Find yourself a vehicle and drive down to the quarry.  There you'll find some 

dynamite but unfortunately it's rigged to blow already, you've got two and a 

half minutes to get down there and steal it.  But first you will need a heavy 

object.  That heavy object comes in the form of the dump truck you can find 

down at the bottom, get on whatever vehicle you used to get in here and drive 

it over the edge so you can fall to the bottom quickly without taking a lot of 

damage.  Get into the truck and use it to run over the crates, then get out 

and grab the dynamite you find inside.  Do this in a counterclockwise fashion, 

the last one you come to is actually on a moving forklift but just crash into 

it to reveal the dynamite.  Now once this is completed the quarry is 

surrounded by security.  Your only escape is a nearby dirt bike marked on your 

map.  You'll have to complete a set of challenging maneuvers to get out of 

here though.  Follow the markers on your map to get up the ramps and jump from 

place to place.  Eventually they'll get you out of the quarry and you can 

quickly ride to the nearby drop point to end the mission and get your money.

This is an extremely frustrating mission, bring body armour if you can find 

some because it will really help.  Drive down to the location marker.  It says 

to try and get in silently, you'll find a large opening on the side wall but 

instead of approaching the entrance to the factory from the front instead 

sneak around behind the large coloured crates.  You'll find a chainsaw on the 

other side.  Now before going into the building take aim with any gun and fire 

at the gas tank of the car out front, it'll save you having to kill a ocuple 

guys later.  Now approach the factory and watch the scene when you enter.



Immediately run left and kill the guy in front of you, then the one standing 

on top of the shelf.  You'll find a guy on your right as well when you pass 

all the shelves.  Now get yourself into a safe position.  If you have a sniper 

rifle make good use of it here, pick off all the guys on the upper catwalk as 

well as everyone standing on the other side of the building.  If not you'll 

still have to do all these things, but with an uzi instead.  Now (at least to 

me) here's why this is one of the most frustrating missions ever.  You could 

have some guy sneak up on you from out of nowhere, when you turn and press 

auto-target him suddenly like an idiot you'll target one of those plastics 

machines instead and find yourself shot to death.  Try to avoid this two ways, 

one is not to have someone sneak up on you, and the other is to use a weapon 

with no auto target like the sniper rifle or use any other weapon and aim with 

the right analog stick.  When all the bad guys are taken care of pull out some 

weapon (shotgun works great) and destroy all ten plastics machines.  This 

triggers another attack so find a corner and take out all the guys here.  

Slowly make your way toward the door via the back wall of the factory (this is 

very important, you don't want to expose yourself at the door, go to the back 

where you can see through it but still be at a distance.)  There's a very 

dangerous man on the crates outside, it's very easy to snipe him from the back 

without even being noticed but you'll have to put yourself in a bit more 

danger with another gun.  Remember that even if you're too far away to auto 

target with the uzi or something you can still hit those enemies from a 

distance you just need to aim manually.  After clearing everyone out get into 

the car they drove into here and return to the casino with a two start wanted 

level.  Park the car to end the mission and get $10,000 and some respect.

Yet another familiarization mission, this will send you all around the area 

and get you used to the terrain, but it won't make it a simple sightseeing 

trip.  You need to drive a huge monster truck through a total of thirty-five 

checkpoints, you can keep track of your progress using the little icon at the 

bottom.  Since the monster truck has such bouncy shocks you'll find it isn't 

exactly the most stable of vehicles so the entire time you're going to have to 

resist the urge to blaze through it and just take it slow.  Never let yourself 

get up to top speed, be patient, and you'll probably be able to do it on your 

first tr
