Anyone have a handy map that shows where the stunts/hidden packages/rampages are? I only have a little over 70% of the game complete and I'm wanting to progress some.

Also, feel free to post tips/secrets/easter eggs in here too.

(I have the PS2, if that makes a difference as to where the stuff is located.)

    I've read that you can get 150% health and infinite sprint by doing certain things. Complete stage 12 of the Pizza Boy missions. Complete stage 12 of the Cop missions. Complete state 12 of the Ambulance missions. (I believe it's 12 for each, anyway.) The highest I get is on the Pizza Boy missions, but I don't think I've gotten any further than stage 8 or 9 on there, if that high.

    Delivering 100 passengers in the Taxi Cab missions was easy, although terribly time-consuming.

    I still need to finish my robberies, rampages, stunts, hidden items and the PCJ 600 mission where there are 24 checkpoints. After that, I don't know what else I need to do to get 100%.

    Sorry man I cant help ya... I just saw an oppertunity to crack a joke about bangin hookers and ran with it. I can never resist those temptations :)

    Great game though!! I only got to the part where you take over that guys mansion (cortez i think). I liked it best on the PC as its high defination and I play on a bigscreen HDTV. Looks very impressive in hi rez.

    text on where to find the locations in above pictures

    i recommend getting the 100 packages as soon as possible, before doing vigalante. The hunter helicopter makes doing viglante extremely easy. first off you're way up in the air, have missles and a chain gun. cops can't get you, and you can destroy everything on the ground. plus missles make other helis die quicker.

    AFAIK that also applies to Vice City.

    Yeah I know. I was trying to be funny and say that in real life its good to bang hookers and get in gunfights instead of in the game. but i botched the joke and it really wasnt even all that funny.

    the hard gun fights in Vice City can be done from far away anyways. sniper rifle is you best friend in these games, especially in the pc version, where you can point and click them to death. the mission where you have to assault the garbage dump can be done with a sniper rifle, a back up auto targeting gun (smg of choice) and the armored car that is close to that place. what i'm trying to get it are hookers aren't a valuable asset to the game, just for cheap kicks and thrills.
