Im sure everyone noted that when you start creating havoc with the tanks In each mission they start running shitty and you leave it on the side of the road somewhere and move on to other pursuits.  I took mine to a sprayshop.I had a little trouble getting it through the door but after I did it came out good as new, running great.  No new ammo of course but running great.  Happy motoring guys.  This message was sponsored by axxon.  Destroying the invironment so that you can destroy the invironment.

Hi, i found out this cool thing about the gouranga guys: 
After you get them to follow you (BTW: you don't need to punch the leader as some people said, you just have to run into him a few times until he follows you), get them into a circle by walking back and into the middle guy, and then start punching like crazy, they start punching u back, and after ur knocked out they'll have a big brawl and punch each other for about 5-10 sec (because they're all very close to each other), its pretty cool.

Hackenslash Blackhole: Go to north-west Hackenslash in Liberty City level one. On the map above the police station there are four small staggered buildings. walk up to the front door of the top building and you will be sucked underground and will be able to walk around under the roads and buildings. If you are wanted by the cops, then they will follow you around above ground, but won't be able to bust you. It is also possible to take a bike underground. So far I have not been able to find a way out again.

Here's a bloody cool trick! 
Did you know that motorbikes (and superbikes) can ride up and down stairs? 
Try this:  
1. Find a train station with stairs leading up to the tracks 
2. Get a bike 
3. Ride up the stairs at full speed and go off the edge of the tracks 
4. You'll land on the road and explode (hopefully hitting a car or 2) 
5. If you're in a superbike you'll smash into buildings on the other  
side of the road and you'll blow up- setting the building on fire. 

TRY THIS 
Get a few tankers,fire engines and buses (whatever you like most) park them where you predict you'll land, and KABOOM!!!!!!  When you land on 'em there'll be a damn huge bang!!!!

Some of these tricks have been posted before, but I will list all the fun things to do I know. 

1. Shoot at a policeman right when he is coming out of his car. He goes back 
in the car and never comes out. 

2. If your car explodes while you are getting in, you can drive the wreckage. 
An easier, but less rewarding way is to get an RC car kill frenzy, wait until 
the last second before time is up, then detonate a car under your van. You 
will switch back to the destroyed van and you can drive it for a few seconds 
before you go to the hospital. 

3. If you are getting out of a car when it explodes, you will not be hurt. 

4. If you blow up a cop's car while he is getting out, he will turn into a 
pedestrian. 

5. If you try to get out of a car while a cop tries to pull you out, he will 
steal your car and stay in it. For more fun, put a bomb in the car, set it and 
do this. KAPOW!!! 

6. If you drive very slowly into a pedestrian going the same direction you 
are, he will get on your hood and sit on it until you stop. I like getting a 
bomb and detonating it with him on your car. 

7. Steps for a fun car chase. First enter the porkcharsui cheat. 

(1) Go to San Andreas chapter 2 and press * and get the flamethrower. 
(2) Get on the highway. 
(3) Find and steal a juggernaut. 
(4) Kill people until you have two cops. 
(5) Step on it down the highway. 
(6) Destroy a cop by letting him ram the back of your truck. DO NOT HIT THE 
COP WITH THE SIDES OR FRONT OF YOUR TRUCK! YOU WILL EXPLODE! 
(7) Stay by the flaming police car and torch all attacking cops until a fire 
truck comes. Steal the fire truck. 
(8) Cruise down the highway with the truck, destroying cops. Remember the 
front/side rule. 
(9) When your truck is going to explode, get out, blow it up. Go back to step

I would think this to be obvious, but it amazes me anew every time someone tells me they didn't know it.  When you go to one of the secret mission cars in Liberty City, unless it specifically says otherwise, you *don't* need to use that car.  If it's a slow car, and there's a fast one nearby, you can just hop out of the mission car after getting the mission & get into another car.  If you need to use the mission car, it'll tell ya to get back in. 
Submitted by Xerxes Piso 

Howdy. This tip allows you to ride a bike/superbike on long stretches of road without having to dodge for slow cars or such.  Simply take the bike/superbike and place it right on a yellow line, and the simply drive away. You will now drive between all passing cars and go really fast, making good time.  This tip is very good combined with going in the wrong direction. I.E.  the wrong lane. Cause cops never put up barricades on the "wrong lane", so if you're on the lane with cars going "the wrong way" (and you're on the yellow lines) you're home free.

Has no one noticed this? To get 1 cop icon at the top of the screen you can do 7 GTA's, ie pulling people out of their cars. You can only do 6 without them caring. You can do 99 firearms offenses without them caring (shooting a car). If you want a car with someone in it, walk in front of it, wait until it has been completely stopped for a couple of seconds, then walk around to the driver's door, get as close as you can, and fire a handgun at it. The driver will wet himself and run out. You can get in and it only counts as a firearms offense. It doesn't devalue the car much, and even if you shoot the front it takes max. 3 shots. Works even quicker with a flame-thrower (they can be moving slowly). 
Submitted by Paul Renshaw 

If you're ever bored and just want to litter the place with bodies, you can rack up the kills with the train. Either coast a vehicle onto the tracks or use a second one to push it. Then park a second vehicle behind it to prevent the train from ramming through the barricade. If you position the car in the right spot, the train 
stop to unload its passengers but can't continue on the tracks.  Even if the doors close, you can still enter/exit the train to produce more pedestrians. Now, you can simply mow them down or herd them onto the tracks. Watch out for the second train, however.  It will eventually crash into the first train and explode.

If a person is chasing you in  a multiplayer game in Liberty City, head towards the bridge.  After you jump it, hit the brakes, back up, parallel park to the edge of the bridge, and run out of your car fast.  When your 
opponent goes to jump he'll smack into your car, blow up and fall into the water.  While you don't get a frag for this, they will lose one.

Many people know that if you are caught on fire, whether it's from an explosion or flame thrower, you can put yourself out by taking a swim in the lake. This works in multi and single player. But did you know that if you are hit by a bullet or two and stumble into the water, you will also be cured? If you are wounded by a cop or another player in Multi, and are near enough to a swimming pool, try and fall into it. Seriously! Then exit the pool like you would when you're on fire and POOF! You are magically regenerated. You are fully functional and ready to shoot the bastard who shot you, and his back is turned. Go ahead, you owe him one.

If you set fire to the cops with a Flame-thrower, you get 10,000 points.  So, to rack up heaps of points, get an all-points Police Alert on you, and start barbecuing the cops as they come after you. Even better, when 
they catch fire, switch to the Machine Gun or the Pistol and shoot them again and you get more points for shooting them.  If you're really fast, you can nick his Police Car and run him over for 
7,000 points. 

Also, if you manage to steal a Police Car, you should take it to a Bomb Shop and arm it. That way, if you crash into a roadblock or get pulled over by the cops, you can set the bomb and the car will blow up taking 
the cop out with it.

Here is a pretty useless but interesting tip for the Liberty City Demo-   
First, get a car that is pretty tough eg. TV van, ambulance,  repair van and take it to the bridge at East Hacknslash.  When you are on the East side of it at the bottom, go North and turn into the first road.  Go about 2 car lengths to the opening on the South side of the road, and go down it till you get to the water.  If you drive straight over at the very left part of the dock you land underneath the bridge, and you can drive underneath the city in the sewers or something.  This can be fun if the cops are after you and chase you, but they just get out of their cars and start shooting innocent by-standers.  You can get out of the under-ground world at the train station near where you start, but you might blow up.  If you blow up when you land on the bridge, you'll have to get a tougher car.

Hello.  I read Mjollnir's tip #4 (see next tip) that was recently posted in the tips & tricks section. It mentions that you can drive off of a bridge and receive no damage in certain parts of San Andreas.  I noticed the same thing, and being the inquisitive bastard I am, I figured out why.  If you fall off of a cliff and land on a slanted piece of ground, you will land unharmed.  that is, if you don't land on another vehicle.  This usually isn't possible because you can't fall off where the ground is slanted, normally, so you'll have to jump at least 1 grid unit (not hard).  

On a related note, I have found that if you drive a car off a bridge or something (no more than one story) onto a flat piece of ground and jump out at the last second, when you get back into the car it will have  
96% damage, but can still go full speed.  That is, if it has no damage before it falls. 
Submitted by Mike 

Ok, here are some fun or useful tricks.  
1) Shoot a policeman just when he is coming out of his vehicle. He will go back inside and the car will become his new home - he wont leave it.  

2) Shoot a police car (rocket launcher is the best for it takes the car out fast) just when the cop is coming out. The cop will become a normal pedestrian and you can beat him up :)  

3) When hunting cops with a pistol, wait until they come very close and then shoot, for targeting is easier that way. If you don't make any shots before the final blow, i think he won't open fire. I even run at them sometimes and shoot when i get close.  

4) There are at least 2 bridges above roads in Northern San Andreas that you can drive down from without wrecking your car. It doesn't do any damage at all. But watch out for the cars below, you don't want to hit  
them. 

5) Some respray shops take tanks. At least the one in Northwest Vice Shores does.  

6) You probably know that already, but here it goes: in multiplayer, you can get 100,000 points for frying a fellow criminal with a flamethrower.  I'm not sure if you get the points when he catches fire or when he dies.  

7) If you're not playing multiplayer for frags but for score, don't be afraid to die by your own rocket launcher or something like that.  

8) I have noticed that the trick of putting yourself out of fire by taking a short swim doesn't always work in multiplayer.  

9) If you want real action with the cops, i think you should go to San Andreas because there dwell the toughest pigs. In Vice City i have never had more than one cop chasing me at one time (though there were 4 heads).  

10) All other tricks i know have already been told here :)  

11) No, wait... I just remembered one - Don't be afraid to ride the bike (not superbike) in multiplayer, for if you do, you are almost unshootable if you can drive well. But watch for those cars. I like to tease the car drivers by riding a bike around them and then suddenly, at the right moment, jump off and pull them out of their cars. A similar thing can be done with cops - stop near a police car which is chasing you and wait for the policeman gets out. Then drive a little farther from the car so that he follows you. Drive in circles around him and then drive to his car, taking it.  

12) Another way to get a police car - get to the opposite side of the drivers side of the cop car and wait for the cop to come to your side.  Then jump over the car, get in and viola - you are it's new owner.

In your car hacking guide i have found a way to make the helicopter work.  All you do is use the fxt2txt file, and in the english.fxt (or after the convert .txt) go down the page and after [car87]name create under that  
[car88]Helicopter.  Then change the starting vehicle (in the mission.ini) to 88. Then when you get into the helicopter it won't crash GTA.

  - When wanting to get somewhere fast and you don't want the police on your tail, grab any bike and drive on the pavement, hence not crashing into any cars and not killing any pedestrians since bikes are unable to kill. You won't crash when you drive into a sign, you will just stop, and you will not fall of the bike when slamming into any wall. 

  - If you have been a bad boy and have a wanted rating of 4, do as much "sidewalk surfing" as possible. The police will not get any madder, and you will have those extra points for later use. 

  - When you are certain of getting either killed or busted by the police, you have make a quick decision. If you have a "get out of jail free" card, anything but being get busted would be stupid as you lose half your multiplier as well as your weapons, when getting out of jail without this card. If you have a lot of lives, however, and NO card, get killed (or use my favourite method of taking as many policemen with you as possible, blowing up a stream of cars).

This is a bit childish, not to mention obvious, but it is fun.  Should you change the CD to one of your own music, try using the Blues Brothers CD from the film.  The theme tune corresponds to the Police car and 
the music to the long chase at the end is played rather alot, usually when you are being chased anyway.  All it needs is; "The use of excessive violence in apprehension of the Blues Brothers has been approved", speech to come up in the Police radio messages!  Fellow British GTA fans can get the CD for a couple of quid in Co-op, as I did.

Not a cheat but fun to do. Go into a train and keep going past stations until you meet the other train (I think there are only 2 on the demo) and crash into it. Both trains will blow up and after a quick trip to the hospital, you'll notice that the tracks remain bare. Also, select no guns and walk to somewhere near water. When those innocent little civilians walk past, get into a fight. Then you can punch them into the water (har har) or shoot them, in which case they'll drip blood all over the pavement, stumble forward and scream as they fall into the water.

GTA has a lot of trouble coping with heights and you can have a lot of fun with bridges. Find a car with good acceleration a taxi will do, then go to a point where a bridge crosses over a road. You can push cars over onto the road for a good while until the cops turn up, but they get confused and park under the bridge, you can now push cars onto them causing havoc underneath. You need a car with good acceleration as you will blow up if you are within the range of the explosion from a falling car.

There are many ways to kill pigs. My favorite is simple.  Get the cops mad soo there are at least three pig faces at the top of your screen, drive in to a bomb shop, drive straight into a barricade, running over one cop then turning quickly to push a squad car over the other cop. Now wait for more cops to come so you can roast'em as they get out. This'll rack up the points. Remember not to blow up the cop cars, just damage them, because if you leave them anywhere, the game will reuse them. So the next time the pigs are chasing you their old recycled cars will be ready to blow and runnin slow. 

If you hold the fire button while a cops pullin' you out of a car he'll be the one on the ground. Also if you hold it while riding a bike and you crash you will land on your feet firing your weapon (its safer just to switch off you guns especially if you have a rocket launcher or you might incinerate yourself). If there is a car in front of you when you crash you should slide right over it still firing your gun. 
  
When running from pigs the broken bridge is not always the best idea.  It gets rid of the cops behind you but then you have to go straight into another squad on the other side. One thing it is good for is that the 
cops won't drive their cars on it so you can stand behind a car as they run into the open leaving their cars behind.  

Another fun trick to play on a cop is hit their car get out and run in a big circle hoping cars until you reach his car and he is still chasing you. Steal his car and he'll be left with out a car and be forced to walk everywhere. You should crap up his car and leave it any where.  He'll come back with the same car. Once I did this and bomb rigged his car, started the detonation as he was comin to get me, and got into another car. He got into his car and chased me for three seconds, and then well you know, BOOM! 
  
When killing a band the best way to get points is use a flame thrower or missile launcher. Running them over give a lot less points and unless they're in a corner a machine gun is ineffective.

A couple of multiplayer tips, one pretty obvious and one a bit more subtle.  First, if you've just torched someone, either with flamer or rocket blast, don't just stand there!  The gun-toting maniac will come 
at you like a mad dog with whatever he's got to fire.  Run away!  Run away! 

The second side to this is if you've just set fire to someone from a rocket blast and they're about to jump over a car or run round the corner at you.  If you keep firing, every time they get hit by the fire 
(assuming it doesn't kill them outright) they turn 180 degrees round and run away.  It effectively means if you're the other side of a car, as usually happens, you can keep them from coming to get you until they're 
truly dead.  I had this done to me after a fire engine rampage and was not happy.

Quick tip for the day - keep running perpendicular to people who are shooting at you, and only turn towards them to fire a quick burst inbetween their shots.  This is a vital skill on the later levels where you have 8-12 people firing at you at once, and it works better than hiding behind cars.

Get yourself a flamethrower, go to a train where there's only one platform, and get in and out of it, letting people out with you, then blow the bastards away, if you get loads in a row then the score value for each one goes up eg 1=1000 2 = 2000 3=4000 4=8000 points. Once I got 306,152 points in the Liberty City demo!

Makeshift Mine: 
As you may have noticed, falling cars are really unstable.  The slightest tap will cause them to explode.  I have found a way to exploit this (bug?) to much satisfaction in either single or multi-player games. 
First, find a large vehicle (bus, juggernaut, tank, etc.)  Then find a place where it is possible to fall, such as off a bridge or building, where there is exactly 1 grid space between the ledge.  From the low side of the gap, drive a large vehicle into the gap slowly, so that it does not bounce back out.  Obviously, you must exit the vehicle before it's too late, or you will fall to your splattering death.  If all goes well, your vehicle will now be halfway off a ledge, suspended against a building or something, and the engine should rev really high.  You are now set.  DO NOT ram the vehicle.  It will explode.  The only useful place that I have found to this so far is in San Andreas, at co-ords (123,57).  I tried it in multiplayer last week, and it is great.  
Happy hunting.

This won't get you billions of points.  It's just interesting, and it is a little bonus.  If you set someone on fire, in whatever manner you choose (flamethrower/rocketlauncher blast) and they begin to run away, you can 
kill them again.  As they run, shoot them with the pistol or machine gun, or, better yet, hit a rocket against a wall close enough to them so that the blast will kill them instantly.  You get points when they get 
burned, and when you kill them again.  Works on cops, too.  BURN BABY BURN!

I don't know about you, but when I accidentally bump into a car with an alarm the alarm stays on for the remainder of the game. It gets pretty annoying after a while. I noticed that when you steal a car with an alarm and get out and get back into the car, the alarm goes off. This also works with cop cars for their sirens.

The best car for doing splattery doughnuts in is the Beast GTS because of its twitchy back-end.  Also the F-29, the Squad Car and the Cossie handle quite well.  I find keeping the accelerator and the handbrake 
down in these allows you to do some tight maneuvering at low speed.  The handbrake is also good for turning the Fire Truck, although you need a bit of speed for it to have any beneficial effect.

This one works on the Playstation, but not sure about the PC.  If you need to turn the car around in a hurry, if you hold the brake button and then accelerate in the direction you want to go, the car will do a donut.  This will work best with a fast car, or on a superbike.  It's also quite a good way to take out a pedestrian, trying to get away from you.

This is a bug that allows you to have some real fun.  What you do is go to a bomb shop and arm your car with a bomb.  Then you go  and get another car, preferably a fast one, damage doesn't matter, and line the two cars front to back.  Then blow away some pedestrians to get the cops after you, so you have to act quickly.  Get back into the car with the bomb in it and activate the countdown. Then get next to the door of the car behind you and hit enter just before it blows up.  This might take a few tries, but if you get it right, you will get an invincible car that has been blown up.  You will be driving a car that is on fire and looks like one that you have blown up, but it will not take damage and the cops won't pull you out of it.  But you will still be able to rake up points.

I have found an easy way to quickly snatch a passing car.  If you are in need of a car, and the car you want is moving just a bit faster than you can jack-it, try pressing the spacebar while running after it, and if your close enough, than you will slide on the car while it is moving, the car stops, and presto, the car is jack-ready.

In Liberty City (or any city with a tram), you can rack up points pretty quickly using the tram.  First, get any gun.  Then find a subway stop and wait on the side of the tracks the people get out of.  When the people start coming out of the subway, fire at them but don't kill them.  They will run away from you and hopefully run into the tracks and you get more points than killing them normally.  The cops will treat this as a firearms offense, so you can do this about 100 times before they get on your ass

With regard to driving around in average cars to avoid crashing - how about getting a fast car, but regulating your speed?  Tapping the accelerator on the straight open bits, then taking your foot off when you look at the arrow or are heading for a stacking seems to get you there as safely as a slow car, but with the added bonus of the speed when you need it (and on the later cities, less chance of cop hassle because you don't have to steal another car).  The best of the fast cars (imho) is the green open-top Porsche.  The Cossie is way too fast and fragile, and the GTS has a really twitchy rear end.  Great fun, but not when you absolutely, positively, have to get there in one piece.

Fletch's Multiplayer Tips:  
Because networked GTA seems to calculate one frame per computer before passing the information between machines, getting the fastest framerate on each machine is paramount.  Dropping down to 8-bit colour does you the most favours, but failing that dropping the resolution lower than your normal single-player resolution gives you a bit of extra speed. 

Also on multiplayer - Fire Engines.  Lovely things.  They're great for a one or two hit surprise.  If you're the last one left after a shootout, chances are your very own Fire Engine will arrive to put out the flames.  Just go head on against someone and they probably won't even get out of their car before they blow up.  Of course, if they do get out, the best thing to do is get out and torch your own truck before they do.  The only flaw is people wise up to you driving a firetruck around very quickly, and you're likely to get a rocket if you're not careful.  But then it wouldn't be fun if it was the ultimate killer.  One last thing entertaining thing to do - if someone has a go at you in a firetruck, and you're unarmed, run up to the driver's door while 
they're trying to reverse, and pull them out.  Not particularly  gamme-winningly clever, but quite entertaining. 

You know that broken bridge in Liberty City?  Steal a coach, school bus or limo.  Park it sideways across the bit that everyone jumps across.  Deny all knowledge five minutes later when someone tries to clear the 
gap and ends up as a shark snack.  Oh, and don't blow it up, otherwise it'll disappear.  Best place to put it is opposite side to someone coming for you, then wait near the top to lure them into it.

If you're like me, stuck with the liberty city demo 'til you can get the full version, but still wanna rack up the points AND survive, here are a couple of hints... first things first, as mentioned below, immediately hit enter to steal the parked car, the cut to the other side of the road, steal the beast gts. Then, cut thru the park, take the crate with the gun, and head to the NE exit. Follow the road east 'til it ends, park the beast against the building, and take the superbike. take the bike around the east side of the overpass directly to your North, and then east again when you come to the split in the buildings. Get up some speed, not a lot, to jump the chasm to the island, using the jump that forms on the south half of the pathway. Once in midair, 
SLAM on the brakes, or you'll crash and burn. Get of the bike and take everything you can find.  NOW, to survive, when you jump the broken bridge with a fast car, you'll usually land hard enough to beat up the car BADLY; but, I've found that, after jumping, holding the brakes 'til you stop on the other side, and no or little

Choosing the right car at the right times!  Ever get real far in a mission and the last thing you need are the cops on your ass?  Chances are you had a fast car and kept on slamming into other cars and the odd pedestrian.  THINKING the faster the better!  Well I found in most cases that the average car is better for traveling around the city.  You have more control and hardly ever crash and you spot hidden crates much easier.  The only time fast is better is if you are in a car chase with the cops.  You might think what if there is a timer in a mission? You still get there faster with a slow car cause you can avoid all the accidents that pop up miraculously but this only happens with a timer! If however, slow is not your style & would like to cruise ALL the time and try and avoid as many accidents as you can.  When you are following the arrow don't look at the arrow, concentrate on the road at the furthest end!  I find that is the problem with most people that play this game!  Just glance every now and then at the arrow!

On any of the level's, in particular Vice, traffic and cops can be an annoyance. A programming shortcut has all the vehicles working on a 'respawning' mode where if you destroy the vehicle it will reappear somewhere else. The Fire truck is an interesting vehicle. Not only is the fastest and more maneuverable and can take a hell of a lot of pounding but if you take it vehicles won't reappear after you destroy them. A good way of doing this is to steal the fire truck and park it in a parking lot. Now go on a rampage destroying vehicles freely especially cop cars and you'll notice that there are fewer and fewer about. To get the vehicles to respawn simply blow up the fire truck.

This doesn't work always but if you practice you can get it to work for you most of the time.  As a cop pulls you out of your car make sure you have a rocket launcher and shoot it as you are pulled out.  It will blow 
up your car and burn the cop while you are unharmed, note you will get up when the cop finishes burning.

To gain entry to the fenced off areas on any of the San Andreas levels follow these easy instructions: 

1. Steal a tanker, school bus, coach, transit van or any other vehicle that instead of going over the   top of you go under it. 
2. Park it next to the fence and get out. 
3. Slide under the vehicle and you will then be in the area

The best way to kill cops- First you need a fast car, Beast, Penetrator, F-19.  Get a couple of cops on you then gun it down a wide road.  When you see the cops come up in front of you slow down, and wait so that the police car skids and its door is right in front of you.  Then slowly push the police car forward, but remember to push from the door of the police car.  The cop will then jump out, on the opposite side that you are pushing.  Just keep pushing and you will run over the cop.  Do this when you have a high multiplier, and 
you will get a hella lot of points.

This is how to be able to walk on the rail... Get the train and take it to the station in northwest brocklyn.  Continue driving; the train will go left, then down, then left here, the rail becomes black.  Stop the train before you reach the fence on the lower side.  Simply press <enter> and you will get out of the train and start running. Tip the <down> arrow key and you'll stop.  Wait until the train starts rolling again, then have fun.  Don't lose the track when you go under-ground. There you can go anywhere  you want to except under water. And don't go back where the train came from.  You can not be hit by the train that comes after the one you used.  Have fun.

Steal a tanker, coach, or a school bus.  Run over three people or hit a squad car.  This gets the police after you. Just drive up and down a wide road.  The cops will keep slamming into you and blowing up. When your vehicle starts rattling, get another or get busted. Repeat stealing the coach or whatever, kill some people, the cops chase you; they blow up.  In order to do this you cannot go too far or else they put up road 
blocks.  Just go back and forth on one three block section. After awhile you won't have any cops around. As long as yo don't die you are home free.

How to get a free police car, method 2: Get to a police wanted status of 3 or 4 so there are road blocks around, then go to an auto and get sprayed or whatever. Then quickly go find a road block before it vanishes, you can nick one of the cars, a cop will shoot at you but you will get no wanted status, run him over to stop him shooting, you will still get no wanted status and you will now have a free cop car.

Now, take a flame-thrower, go to nearest train station and fire to all people that came down from the train.. You'll get 1000 points for this barbecue and 1000 points for the Electric cooked.

If you are bored with Liberty City, here is a little anecdote.  As you all know there is a bridge that has the middle section removed.  This trick only works while you are going up, or north.  Line up some cars on 
the other side of the bridge to set up for an evil keneival (or something) jump.  Clear out the road barriers and cones and use some cars to block traffic.  Steal a superbike and try to get it to top speed before you jump across.  If at full speed when you jump, you will jump over the other cars for a cool stunt.

If you're getting out of a car just as it's blowing up, you'll survive without catching on fire.  The opposite of this also works.  If you're getting into the car as it explodes, you'll survive and be able to drive a burned out shell of a car that's already been destroyed.  You can't get car jacked by other players or be destroyed.

I don't know if this works every time, but, if you run into a subway train, while on fire, you can stay on there for any length of time. When you get off the train you'll still be on fire, but the fire will go out, 
and you won't die. I have only been able to recreate the situation once, but I thought that it was pretty cool loophole in the game design.  That's tip 1. 

Tip 2 is a way to get quick points... Get on the subway and switch your weapon to flamethrower. When you get off the subway train, pedestrians get off with you. If you come out shooting fire, you get 1000 points each. You can repeat this little trick several times, before nobody gets off with you. It earned me several thousand points in a quick amount of time....

I know that this hint has been given for multiplayer games, but it works real well for single player games too. Just stand near the top of stairs, such as the bridges that cross the streets in this, and you can easily take out the police, since any shots they fire at you go below you.

I found a pretty easy way to make money.. It's actually very simple. You know those guys that are dressed in orange, travel in a group of five or six, and are singing that annoying music? Have your fists ready & bump into them, when they say "watch out" or "hey", they will now follow you. You will become their new leader. Anything you do (ie: zig-zag or walk in a circle) will be imitated by them. Then when you get tired of them, take out your flame thrower or machine gun & stop. Then turn around and shoot them, they'll run around screaming & you'll get a lot of points. This works best with the "hate machine" cheat, cuz you'll finish your level.

I've been exploring the bug concerning motorbikes, the Ctrl button, and control multiple vehicles.  I've now found a way to consistently control multiple vehicles in any city, at any time. 

I'm not really sure if this would be better on your bug page or tips & tricks, but anyway, here's how you do it. 

First, find a motorbike.  Steal it.  As you climb on the bike, press Ctrl. Now I find that this works best with the punch selected, but if you insist, you can use your rocket launcher >:] 

What should happen is that as you climb on the bike, your guy starts punching, as he slides off the bike.  If the trick worked, you wont be able to steal the bike again.  If you are still able to ride the bike,  
then keep trying. 

Next, steal a car, preferably, something fast or something heavy.  Take your new car and ram the bike.  Have fun. If you die, you will still control the car.  In fact the only way I have found to stop driving the car is to damage it enough so it blows up.  Also, if you steal the car that you rammed the bike with again, you wont be able to get out. 
Happy Hunting.

TooooL submitted the tip to take cars to the docks for money, and he reckons that the guy gets angry and won't take any more after a while. The bloke will take more but only if his 'dump' square is free. To check this, get out of the car, and stand so you can see the barge. If the car you last gave him is in the area nearest the crane arm (usually the bottom left corner). Then go for a walk until the barge is out of sight. Then come back, and you should be able to dump your car. The bloke doesn't accept limo's, 
fire trucks, coaches or tankers, though.  To do this and get loads of money without getting cops on you, nick loads of sports cars and park them away from the crane in an empty area. Do this to about 20 cars, then nick a few tankers, buses etc. and build a barrier so that the cops can't get to your cars or the crane. Cash all the cars, and as long as the barrier is built a little way away, the cops just sit in their 
cars doing nothing!

Bob Giff has submitted a tip to destroy police cars by allowing them to smash into the back of your Coach. This also works in a fire truck and a tanker. 

Another way to kill loads of people - Park your (very fast) car on the pavement, and walk into the middle of the road (Best if road is a 4 lane-er). Use your machine gun to blow cars up. Keep doing it for ages and do it to the cops. Then either drive away into a respray shop, or nick the fire engine when it turns up!

Top Things To Do In Cannonball Multiplayer Races: 

Rather than jumping in the nearest vehicle, get to someone else's door after they've just got in.  Then press ENTER, and drag them out of their car!  After this, the choice is yours, but personally I find reversing over them, ramming the remaining car out the way and speeding off always has that little touch of class. 

Note the same thing is also a good tactic against 'Maniac in a fire engine' syndrome.  I've seen so many poor, defenseless little cars taken out by the fire truck (when the target doesn't have a machine gun to 
stitch the truck, large target that it is, up properly).  Get out of your car before it gets completely caned, do that old duckin'-and-a-divin' routine round and under the fire truck under the driver has to reverse off something, then drag him out of his own cab and teach him a damn good lesson. 

And Doom syndrome? 

Anyone ever played Doom so much multiplayer you agreed to 'all meet in the courtyard for a fist fight', and someone brings a rocket launcher (and promptly incurs the wrath of everyone)?  Well, we found out recently GTA has the same syndrome - it's called bringing a Beast GTS and a knowledge of the hand brake key.

This is more of a trick than a tip.  Have you ever wanted to drive a boat in the water in GTA?  In Liberty city and possibly others there is a way to do it.  First, ya hafta change your starting vehicle in the mission.ini file (you can see how do do that in the hacking section) and change your car to number 13  - the boat.  Start up "Gangsta Bang" and then drive the boat very carefully to any spot that has an opening onto the water, where you or a car would normally fall into the water.  Drive the boat very slowly off and you should have a boat sitting right on the water, ready do drive around

When being chased on foot by police, try jumping over cars going in the opposite direction. The cops don't jump over cars. Also, if you get fed up of running, try running backwards, and fire your weapon at them, it gives you more chances to shoot them. The cop cars are the best for long police chases.

Here is a tip that I found out in San Andreas (both levels I think).  Go to North East Richman and look around for a green Porsche parked in a small clearing, get in and drive straight ahead, you'll go between two buildings, jump across a long strip of water and land just after you drive (fly?) under a bridge, keep driving straight and go as far as you can, you will hit the wall surrounding the police impound yard, and you'll get an "INSANE STUNT BONUS" message on screen and 40,000 points.

In Liberty City, if you go to the docks and give a couple of cars for money, the guy gets mad and won't take anymore.  I found out that if you have a rocket launcher and shoot the car on the crane right after you get the money, then you can bring in more cars and even get points for blowing the car up.

In San Andreas City you can gain lots of points by getting the police on your tail (not too hard) and then walk up one of the foot-bridges over the double highway in the middle.  The cops will wait for you under the bridge where you can lead them on the highway and just wait for other police cars to run them over (splashshsh... and 10,000 points for one and 30,000  for the second stupid cop etc.)      
Submitted by HSL 

If you're making a pileup, or generally don't want any cops on your tail (sensitive mission, etc.), instead of running up to cars and getting in them, once the car has stopped, shoot it (NOT with a rocket launcher) and the occupant will get out.  You might have to shoot a couple of times.  You can then get in the car and it won't count as a car jacking, subsequently not acquiring any police after about 10 cars.  It is still a firearm offense, but police only come after about 100 shots or so!  

Tip for the Tip:  Try and shoot the car/truck/whatever as little as possible so it's in good condition and won't explode after five knocks.  Also, a flame-thrower (in moderation) is good for slow moving, or just out of reach moving cars, they will stop and run away for you. 

Another tip: 
Lay you're flame-thrower on to moving cars on highways just enough so you really hear the motor fading away, but not too much so it'll stop, or even explode.  Takes a bit of practice, but then there'll be a heap of beat up cars around for the cops to run into whilst chasing you! 
Submitted by Rett 

If you stole a police car, and have the police chasing you, wait till your on a long stretch of road. and when the chasing police car comes up beside you, right before his front end passes yours, cut him off, so he rams into your side, but keep the gas on cause he might blow up. but if you do it right you usually hit him about 5 times in the front. And that causes considerable damage, and as we all know.. Damage slows down a car.  You could probably use another car, but I've only got it to work well with the police car.

This tip works best if you've already completed a few missions and have a multiplier of say 4 or 5.  On the cities with trains (i.e. Liberty City & Vice City) go to a train station and wait for a train to come along, then get in and kill the driver by pressing 'fire'. The train should remain still.  Then get out again and usually a group of passengers will get out with you.  Make sure you walk a few feet forward when getting out of the train and fire a few shots with a machine gun or pistol (it's a good opportunity to shoot some of them as well).  Most of the people will panic and run onto the tracks and electrocute themselves.  Quickly get back in the train and repeat the procedure as many times as necessary. Takes a bit of practice but it's worth it if you're fed up with the missions.  Eventually you get to a point where there are so many dead bodies littering the track and platform that they start flashing due to some sort of bug, but I've not managed to make it crash yet.

On the liberty city demo, right where you start, get a car and drive it straight to the railroad.  Just before the car touches the railroad, abandon it. (it can take a few tries, but it works) Try getting it as close as you can to the part with the fence at the south, where the locomotive can't throw the blown car aside. If you succeed, which is INDEED possible, the train will hit the burnt debris of the car, and if you did that 
right, will not be able to throw it aside. The train will stop. Wait around a few minutes and then, when the OTHER train will come from behind... Presto! It's train collision for you!

This best works on Liberty City right near the start where the train station is.  Have a car waiting then get out and wait for the train. When it comes go in by pressing ENTER then you can press CTRL to hijack the train. You can now get out again by pressing ENTER then get in again and hijack it again. The good thing is you get points every time you hijack it and you seem to get infinite pedestrians coming out of the train! The car? Once you've had enough stop going in and out and get in the car and chase all the peds on to the railway! This  is really cool with a high bonus multiplier and you can get $100,000 quickly.

The rocket launcher and the flame thrower are very dangerous weapons, but most of the time it is you who are in danger.  Make sure that you are a good distance from your target, otherwise you'll be the one incinerated on the pavement.  Another rocket launcher tip is to try and shoot the building near your target.  A portion building will blow up and anything near it will be blown up as well.

I found out that if you punch the leader of the Gouranga group about 11 or 12 times.. maybe more..

To take over the train just wait at a platform and when it stops use the <ENTER> key (just like a car).  Once inside hit the <CTRL> key.  You can then stop and start the train with the arrow keys and open the doors with the <ENTER> key, but only at a platform.  You can blow up the train and derail the cars if you can find the other train on the tracks and ram it, blowing you up as well.  Another train trick is to wait on the train platform until it empties, as soon as the doors close start shooting your gun.  This will cause the people to run toward the train and they will get fried on the electric track.  Besides being quite entertaining it will also give you points.
