Mad Tony

No, Not yet. i've just started all over again.

I think it's Las Venturas

The plane ones are hard.

I've completed San Andreas for PS2 but not for PC (I know there isn't any difference though!)

In these arms I might be able to help. If you describe the mission I might remember and I could help.

01-07-06, 11:08
You go to like a super market. Go in, with Big Smoke. And theres like hundreds of guards just waiting for you. After you kill all of them. Its a bike race, and you got to keep the bike intact.

I'm not so good at aiming. Thats my problem :(

Ooooo a GTA discussion thread.

Did you people get GTA LCS for PS2 or PSP? PSP here :)

TR freak
01-07-06, 11:10
I remember that one. Last misson with big smoke. Love that mission. Just hold down the fire button when you're on the bike and just try you're best to hit the men on the bikes. Never let go of the fire button. Aim for the men on the bikes not the bikes themselves.

Damn. Its hard keeping up to date with you guys. I like to help people on GTA problems. Give them cheats and advice.

I dont wanna leave the comp

Titanium
01-07-06, 11:13
Yup it is good. The only problems is that the radio stations are shorter since the UMD isnt as big as a DVD. But except from that, its a brilliant game and I reccomend it even if you have GTA3 :)

Neither have I. I've done 98 and something percent. I haven't used a walkthrough or anything like that to help me find things so I'd say my percentage is pretty good.

in these arms
01-07-06, 11:18
I only use weapon cheats. No walk throughs.

I do cheat. Not for to complete the game. But to have fun when I want to kill CJ or have fun with vehicles. Like... Super punch and Make CJ do massive bunny hops.

TR freak
01-07-06, 11:20
I dont use cheats my first time through. When I replay it I do but my 98 percent save hasn't used any cheats.

Mad Tony
01-07-06, 11:23
I use cheats just if I wan't to have fun mucking around with riots and stuff. And I occasionally use cheats for difficlut missions.

You got to kiddnap these people and dunk them in the water :D

I had to steal this car. Collect these people drive to the sea or w/e and drowned them ;) Sweets I love SA and VC.

There the only games I have Except for GTA Advance for GBA.

Mad Tony

Is GTA Advance any good, in these arms?

in these arms
01-07-06, 11:45
Its not that good. You view your player from its head. Its got crappy graphics. And to me not point in doing missions on there. It's hard from the start. So I just like to kill people take money and cars.

Edit::: TR1 is better.

If they made it 3D on the GBA, it would run horribly, the GBA isnt designed for 3D games.

So they have to put it viewing from the head. :)

i guess, because the new GTA is due in October 2007 there's really no rush to realease screens and plot details this early.....

i must confess though i'm suprised no details have yet been released about Vice City Stories...and that's out this October

I know but with san andreas we had screenshots about a year before it came out... and saying that VCS comes out in like 2-3 months... and still no screenshots or talk of main characters or story for that matter is leaving it a bit late... they need to provide lots of information so people hear about it and look forward to it.

people have started making games for PS3 already,most of the launch titles are in the final stages of development....as for GTA

it is claimed the PSP & PS2 are very similar to develop for, as such porting from one to the other is easy,therefore the PS3 is irrelevant...games for PS2 won't stop being made just because of the new machine...............just like PS1, development will gradually be phased out in favour of PS3, so i say many games will be released on PS2 throughout 2007, along with PS3 games

01-07-06, 18:46
I think I liked VC the best. The one thing that annoyed me about it though was the camera flares that would appear on screen while you were driving.

I think most people liked GTA3 the most because it was revolutionary, having the expierance for the first time of being able to go anywhere in a 3D city was awesome, but now that we're used to that, R* needed to come up with new things besides that to keep our attention.

R.I.P Odie
POSTED AT 20:13 GMT BY Chris :: Category: General :: Comments: 11
I was informed of some tragic news today, one of GTA's best map makers, Odie, passed away last month on Tuesday, June 7th, 2005, the same day San Andreas was released on PC/Xbox.

For those of you who haven't heard of him he was one of the greatest map makers for GTA3 and Vice City. He released the 1st ever map mod for GTA3 - Ultimate Stuntpark. And the 1st ever map mod for Vice City - Beachpark.
He also had a dream to create his hometown of Berlin, Germany and put it in a GTA game, Odie also contributed to popular mod Myriad Islands.
A lot of us think a memorial should be made for him and put in San Andreas and I believe this will happen as a talented bunch of modders over at GTAForums are in discussion about.
Odie, real name Heiko Feege was just 37. Details of his death have not been publicly released. He leaves behind a widow and a son (8).
May he rest in peace.

Odie - We will never forget you
POSTED AT 21:29 GMT BY Chris :: Category: General :: Comments: 5
Exactly one year today, GTA modding legend Heiko Feege, better known as Odie in the GTA community, passed away, at just 37 years old. For those who are maybe new to GTA and don't know of the event, you can read our news post from last year, and also this press release (.pdf) put together by members of GTAForums, a forum he frequented.

Many tributes have since been made to Odie, with fellow modders including homages to him within their own mods. Odie left behind a widow and a son, along with GTA Berlin, a huge total conversion still in development today, which aims to bring Berlin, the capital city of Germany into San Andreas, without their project leader.

The GTA Berlin team have put together a small video slideshow with some images of his contributions to the community, along with the simple message of "Wir werden dich nie vergessen", translating to "We will never forget you". You can check out the 1 minute tribute here (.wmv file).

You mean the one in Vice City? Instead of using the normal entrance (and losing all your weapons), drive a car up to the fence on its left, then jump on the car and over the fence. It's so much easier to kill some unarmed guards when you've got a machine gun. ;)

Another way (a bit harder) is to destroy all golf carts except one by driving or pushing them into the sea (before approaching the victim, and jump out first, of course!) You can then just take the remaining one and run everybody over.

Yeah as 'saxy' said do that, and if you have the sniper... shoot the main guy, once he's croaked it, none of his guards come after you. But you have to time it right... because as soon as you shoot, they all start pumping you full of lead!

Just recently started Vice City for the first time, so I think this thread deserves a rebirth. I can't believe I've ignored this brilliant game for so long. I completed GTA3 back in 2003 but never moved onto any of the others until earlier this year when I bought Liberty City Stories. Now I've invested in Vice City and San Andreas as well (I'm doing the former before the latter).

Last port of call was Diaz' mansion, which I took over and now own. I'm on a mission called "Skakedown" next, which takes place in the shopping mall. Stats to date...

Rampages - 18/35
Packages - 48/100
Unique jumps - 3/36
Prperties owned - 5
Time - 15hrs approx

It's incredible how beautiful the game is. The scenary around the city is so gorgeous and lush.

I've recently started San Andreas. It's good, if not a little too 'gansta'. I've played GTA3 right through though, and I'm currently at 80% completion (aiming for 100%), so I'm a GTA3 person. I do love that game. :D Unfortunately the radio stations don't work for me because my dad got it a few years ago and it is, as he calls it, a 'dodgy copy'. :p Piracy was a lot easier and a lot more common then. It's only recently that it's started to really be cracked down on.

I've had a quick go on Vice City, but didn't think much to it. I personally think the graphics on GTA3 are the best, because they are less 'cartoony'. San Andreas graphics are good, but I prefer the GTA3 graphics. Also, whilst the car crash sound effects are best on San Andreas, other sounds such as police and ambulance sirens sound terrible, unlike the very realistic sounds used in GTA3.

Vice city is pretty good. In fact its a fantastic game and one of my favourite games of all time. However its nothing compared to San Andreas. San Andreas is simply the best game I've ever played and is rivalled only by TR4 in my fav games list. Vice city isn't very good for playing once you've completed the main game. Random killing sprees and causing loads of mayhem is only fun for so long. San Andreas offers alot more extra stuff to do for 100% and its still fun. Vice city isn't fun for getting 100%. Its fun for a while once you've completed the main game but it doesn't have the staying power SA has imo.

Scottlee
03-11-06, 19:01
Well, I'm only at 23% complete so far, so I'm still at that point where the game is madly addictive and "new".

I've put the Vice City map up on my bedroom wall next to my PS2, so I can check it during play :D

I play without cheats first, and when I have it finished I use everything what there is in the network to modify it.

Today I bought an ice cream factory and a strip club. I wasted $20000 and $30000 respectively on these two ventures, and for what? All I seem to have got for my troubles is a lap dance and an ice cream van. Is there actually any practical point to buying these places, other than being able to save my game more often?

There is a point to buying them. You have to do them for 100%. Complete them to gain the asset for them both. You have to do 50 ice cream deals in a row and spend a certain amount of money in the strip club. I cant remember how much you have to spend on the stripper but I do remember it was very boring waiting for my money to go.

Unless you used a guide from start to finish and played them both 24 hours a day thats simply not possible. For vice city just the story missions alone would take you longer than that. Plus you've got the hidden packages to find, rampages to find and do, the races, the top van missions, loads more crap to do to get 100%. You could not do that in 2 days. There's even more to do in san andreas and you cant do that in 5 days. I'd be surprised if you even finished the main story in 5 days. Either you are lying or you mean you completed the main story of vice city in 2 days and SA in 5 days. Thats plausible but 100% in that amount of time is not possible.

Some new Vice City related questions....

1 - How do you do deals in the ice cream van? Parking the vehicle and pressing L3 doesn't work. It doesn't turn the jingly noise on or draw customers, nothing. I know it's not my joypad because the L3 works fine on fire engine missions. :confused:

2 - I'm stuck on a mission where Tommy and Lance want to steal cop clothes. Apparantly I'm to lure cops into some sort of lock-up, but the only dot on the map takes me to an abandoned police car on a patch of grass. Getting into the police car affects nothing, and goading cops into that grassy area does nothing. :confused:

Titanium
04-11-06, 14:19
Lee, you have to press the L3 button quickly for the sound to turn on. And then just sit there and let them come to you.

For your second question, there should be a nearby garage and you need to gets the cops attention. Then let them follow you into the garage.

Okay, can't remember a mission in the history of missions that's peeved me off as much as this one tonight. I've long moved onto the second half of proceedings where you have to drive back to the mansion under 4-star surveillance, but I just can't do it. I've had 10-15 tries, twice getting to within inches of the mansion gate and then being ransacked as I slowed to turn. God this is frustrating. :hea:

I did this mission such a long time ago I can't remember exactly how it went. Have you tried parking a helicopter outside the entrance of the police building. Then once your outside quickly get into it and helicopter back to the mansion. :)

Scottlee
04-11-06, 22:22
I've done it now. I worked out where three police bribes could be found within a close proximity and went for them rather than just drive straight back to the mansion. It reduced the wanted stars from 5 to 2 and made my eventual journey achievable.

Now I'm on "Messing with the man", or at least I will be tomorow. I have two minutes to fill a chaos meter, which is harder than it sounds.

Titanium
04-11-06, 22:29
That mission is surprisingly difficult Scott, you have to make Tommy go mental to complete it.

I noticed something a while back, is it me or do the cars in GTA: Liberty City stories, have alot more endurance then in GTA3? I was doing the Police Vigilante missions on GTA 3 and within 3 or 4 major hits, the car was heavily damaged. But on LCS, it took about 11 hits for it. :confused:

Scottlee
04-11-06, 22:32
I didn't notice that, but what does happen on LCS is that if you so much as turn your back on any car it will disappear when you turn back around again. The game memory isn't as good as on GTA3.

This may sound weird, but for me its the hardest mission in the game. Its easy to cause loads of chaos in the time but its the amount of cop attention you attract. What I do is blow up as many cars as I can inclusing all police cars that come towards me. The easiest way to do this for me is to find the minigun and use it. That way you can blow up as many cars as you like in a second. Once you complete the mission your wanted level still remains so you'll have to get back to the mansion on foot with probably a four or five star wanted level.

Scottlee
04-11-06, 22:45
I had an idea to just line up seven or eight cars outside the biker bar, and then blow them up when the mission starts. That should fill 50-60% of the meter. The only trouble is, you don't have to walk far before cars 'disappear', or do much piling before getting a wanted star prior to the mission has even officially beginning. Another problem I've had so far is being unable to shoot the police helicopter because of the rotor blades getting in the way.

Hypnosos
04-11-06, 23:00
Regarding "Messing with the man".

I don't remember it working for me, but some people said it works if you just shoot one car until it blows up. Then start shooting at the wreckage, your chaos-meter will still go up as if you were shooting on a car that hasn't been blowed up yet, but your wanted level will not rise any more.

I just shot everything around me until I got a three star wanted level, then went up the nearby stairs up on a roof, then just shot every car down there, and police helicopters payed a visit sometimes which gave alot of chaos before it blew up. Cops just came up the stairs sometimes, and when they did, it was just 1-2 of them at a time.

When I was done, I just runned of the roof on the other side and took one of the bikes parked outside Baker's bar and drove to the closest pay'n'spray.

I don't remember it working for me, but some people said it works if you just shoot one car until it blows up. Then start shooting at the wreckage, your chaos-meter will still go up as if you were shooting on a car that hasn't been blowed up yet, but your wanted level will not rise any more.


This worked perfectly. :tmb:

Next mission has got me at a loss though. I have to recover a stolen bike, but when I drive to the pink dot on the map there's nothing there :confused: The dot is right in front of some stairs that don't lead anywhere. The streets nearby look normal and I can't figure out what the hell to do from here.

Hmmm the stairs lead up into the air, but I wonder what would happen if I went up on those stairs on the superbike? ;)

I finished San Andreas last weekend...and SA is the best! Though I haven't played vice city yet...can anyone tell me if Vice City is worth getting? I'm guessing it is but who knows...

It is, but IMO it's not as good as SA.

Well the map is alot smaller then San Andreas's. But it is still a fun game, and you can get it for less then £15 now. Or maybe get the Vice City stories PSP game. :)

Done that mission now. It came to me eventually. Wasn't immediately obvious though. I'm going to break off from the main missions for a while and do some taxi work. I want to buy the Malibu club but I'm $90000 short.

That place is brilliant for for rampages and getting 5 stars :D


Vice City is brillaint, but SA is the better of the 2 but its still worth getting

£15 if I order from England but then I'll also have to pay for the shipping and so on...in Estonia the game is about 600kr(Thats about 27£) PSP would work if i had a PSP lol :D
But I'll buy the game eventually...maybe when there's a sale or something lol

The minigun in VC was awesome, is there one in San Andreas?
I'm guessing not as I can't get it with weapon cheats.

One thing I love about SA is the ability to play video games in it! It highlights how real the game is, and makes you think it is real life!

I'm still chugging away. I bought the cab company and the film studio yesterday, and also reached 21/35 rampages and 51/100 packages (not bad stats without help). There's a great rampage on top of the airport that you can only reach by helicopter. You have to blow up 12 cars with a rocket launcher.

Did a classic mission tonight. Oh you've got to love the sight of six taxi cabs trying to ram another taxi cab in the middle of an enclosed dock area. Stupid but brilliant :D

Thought I would bring this thread back with a good reason. :)

Finally reached the 3rd island on Liberty City Stories, thought I would never get there at one point. Has anyone gone to the top of the mountain with a motorbike and leapt off the top? How fun :D. And how many hidden packages does everyone have? I Got 14.

I stopped playing near the end. This was sometimes last summer.

I had exactly 50 hidden packages when I stopped, and it felt like I'd searched everywhere.

Most of them I just happened to find in the game world, I search for a couple for the free handgun at the hideout and also because of extra money. I wonder if anyone has found all 100 without cheating or using a walkthrough, personally I just wouldnt even attempt it.

I've had LCS for months and I've only done about 5 missions lol. I've done even less in GTA 3 and I got it on the same day. Going from San Andreas to GTA3 and LCS is just so hard. I can go back to the inferior Vice City easily but LCS and GTA3 just aren't fun after SA. SA wipes the floor with every GTA and in fact every other game imo. VC wipes the floor with GTA3 and LCS though.

The most I got on any game (without help) was 65/100 on GTA3

I found all tags in SA without help but thats all. Cant remember how many horseshoes I found before using a walkthrough. I haven't used a walkthrough to find oysters and I cant remember how many I found. It was a little more than half of them I think. I found not much more than 50 packages in VC and almost all rampages. SA is the one I put the most effort into. The jetpack helps alot for getting around quickly.

17-06-07, 14:04
I got 56/100 on Vice City.

50/100 tags on SA, and I spent hour after hour searching for as many as possible. I can't imagine how you found all 100 without help.

The jetpack is your best friend for this. I spent hours on end searching every little place with the jetpack.

Wondr if that one will make the site crash as well lol. Who would have thought bringing all the GTA fans on the net to one site would make it crash! I remember when I stayed up waiting for that first trailer and...... nothing. I just switched off my computer and watched the trailer in the morning.

When you try a rampage and fail it, how long before the skull sign regenerates so you can try again?

drive around until that area becomes out of view, then go back :D

Hmmm, I think I've tried that.

It's annoying because in all the other games the skulls re-appear instantly.

It's more a matter of how pointless reviving a thread is, rather than its age. If people still have meaningful things to discuss about old GTA games, that's fine. If somebody had dug it up just to say they've completed Vice City, that'd be a different story. It just wouldn't be of any interest to other people.
