Easy money
Go to an ATM, then cause a traffic jam to the area. Wait for someone to take money from the ATM, then kill him or her. Make sure to block any nearby roads so the ambulance cannot get to the murdered victim. Take the money they dropped on the ground. Then, run a short distance away, and go back. The money should have respawned on the ground. You can repeat this as many times as desired. You can also kill more people taking their money from the ATM to increase the amount of money that respawns.

Repairing the engine
If the vehicle you are driving breaks down and the engine will not start, call 911, and your engine should start again.

Do you guys even read the List of Tips... been up there since day one.

Stand out in front of a hospitol. Start punching people. Wait for them to hit you. Press 'A' as they punch, then counter with 'B'. You should do a 3 hit combo. Do this 10 times. If you die the counter doesNOT reset. Just keep punching.

Where can I find a bulletproof Vest? It's a bitch to have to buy one everytime.

MrSchmo · 05-05-2008, 09:20 AM

YOu know Mike I still have not found one on my own yet. If I'm doing a tough mission I call my Jamican friend and he rolls up so I can buy one off him for $300. they're normally $500 in the gun shops.

But the really long and tough missions usally have health packs and vests laying around somewhere.

Thanks man im gonna try that when i get home. I found that you can use the Increase your want level cheat and you can still get the One Man Army achievement.

When you counter are you supposed to press A when he attacks for before it hits you. I tend to miss a lot since people throw random punches and i dont catch them in time.

MrSchmo · 05-05-2008, 12:53 PM

I havent thrown a punch since I got a gun.

Press 'A' as they punch you. You will duck, then press 'B'

You think it's best to try this inside the hospital or outside?

MrSchmo · 05-05-2008, 01:05 PM

Where ever there is the most people that will fught back. I only say do it a Hospitol so if die you can just keep doing. And for some reason they fight near the Hospitol... try the Brooker hospitol.
