Section 5---Ways to Beat Hard Missions

This is the most helpful part in my FAQ, I think.

Keep Your Friends Close…
First, get a Python and shoot at the people that are coming to you, avoid them to 
get to the safe. After a while, it will say to kill Lance, DON’T, instead, kill 
the other guys that are coming to you while dodging Lance’s bullets. When Lance 
runs, follow him but don’t get too close. Then you’ll reach the Heliport, kill 
the other guys and hide behind the boxes, then use a PSGI sniper rifle and shoot 
at Lance’s head for five times. After Lance’s dead, go back where you started the 
mission, Sonny and his men will try to kill you. To make a fast kill, use your 
Rocket Launcher and aim at Sonny. After you kill Sonny, the mission’s over and 
you will receive lots of phone calls.

The Job
When you’re in the bank, kill every DBP Security guard that you find before doing 
anything. Then proceed the briefs as usual. When the alarm goes off and the SWAT 
comes, kill the SWATs and escape.

Section 6---Interesting Been Discovered So Far

Jump on the Roofs with a Motorcycle
First you need to own the film studios and complete the asset. Then you’ll know 
how to do this because you are going to do it in the last Film Studios mission.

Possible “E.T.” ?
First do the dodo cheat and the car floating cheat, then do the Rhino cheat to 
spawn a tank. Now you have your “E.T.”, and the only way to work it is to turn 
the turret to the back and accelerate and start shooting. It works on sea, air, 
and land. It’s possible to fly higher than those jets that you see in the Escobar 
International taking off and landing. It’s fun. Try it!
(Caution: DON’T try to exit an “E.T.” while on the sea, you will drown 
immediately.)

Shoot People While They’re in a Car or Motorcycle
Pedestrians in cars: Get a rifle that you can AIM with. Then stop a car and head 
shot the driver from the FRONT.
Pedestrians in motorcycles: Get a gun that you can AUTO AIM with. Then lock on 
and shoot the pedestrians that’s on the motorcycle.

The Greatest Information Ever: The Other Way to Access the Ultimate Vehicle 
To get the Hunter, finish the last mission FIRST. Then go to the Police 
Headquarter and get the cop uniform so you could avoid the army to shoot you. 
Then just go into the base, find the Hunter, and say “bye-bye” to the army. And 
that means to kill them!

The Dodo Hunter
Sadly, you can’t fly the Dodo instead of Skimmer. But if you’re mad about this 
why don’t you try to destroy the fake Dodo that is buzzing around the town! To do 
this, you need to get the Hunter first because it’s the only flying thing with 
the rocket launchers on it. Then, find the stink’in Dodo and blow it up! (Another 
sad news is: you will get three stars immediately by blowing it up)

Rewards for Finishing 100%
1.	200 max. health and armor
2.	infinite ammo on all weapon
3.	double car health
4.	A T-Shirt that says: "I completed Vice City and all I got was this lousy 
T-Shirt."
