I don't see the connection.  Yes the word bacon is used to describe my love of bacon.  I really can't help it if your offended by that, is it a taboo word?  What are bacon flaps anyways?  Is there some kind of hidden meaning i'm missing?

Everyone put down a handy tip you've learned (i.e. UKChaos' tips) for GTA:SA! I just started :)

I know you can make BANK by taking down the drug dealers, but where the HECK are they? And what do they look like?

ill euphamism you  ;)

and the drug dealers sometimes have a white hoody on.. or sometimes they have a black tank top.. and theyre holding their hands infront of them.. like uh.. really tough stance or something.. and sometimes the other ai talk to them to buy drugs... and if you walk up to them theyll offer you drugs.. and the y/n box pops up....

and if you fight them theyll pull a gun on you so its best to get a knife and creep up behind em.. take em out quick.... lets seeeeee.... thats all i have to say atm.. and i prolly said more than i had to.. but im kinda bored..

I tried betting on horses, what's the trick?

Flying is SO much easier in first-person mode. Also, don't fly with the mouse.

I love causing highway/freeway pileups. From there, blow up one of the cars (jump on it and stomp on the hood if you don't want police attention) for massive chain reaction boom fun.

Even the standard pea-shooter pistol becomes a decent weapon if you reach hitman level with it (full skill bar). Remember to try for headshots no matter what weapon you're using.

I love parachuting. I need to find some creative uses for it.

Choppers were easier to control in Vice City. Maybe analog sticks are more suitable than a keyboard.

I want a tank! Where are the tanks? There have to be tanks!

Flying is fun now that I got the hang of it. Especially the harrier.

Return to the house where you first met the government agent inbetween San Fierro and Las Venturas. Heavy weapons to be found. The thing that looks like a concrete tube is a guided missile launcher.

You save your game, go bet, and if you lose, you reload.

If you win, save, and then do it again.

In the first town find the Pimpmobile and do the missions for it.
Once you become a pimp, hookers pay you for sex :) Good way to get health and money.

I think its a white car (cant remember the type) parked behind a petrol station, near a car wash.

They stand still and wear hoodies. You will find them in the grove street area.


I recommend completing the 8-Track race in the stadium in first city. You unlock the monster truck which is my current favourite vehicle.

Its brilliant for smashing cars off the road, it can drive up very steel slops and over brick walls. Its the perfect off-road vehicle to roam the countryside. Also instead of a hand break, the back axels turns, so you can pull awesome donuts. The only downside is that not all garages can fit it. I ended up keeping one in my Mulholland garage as its suited to the hilly areas.

The 8-Track is hard, but its worth completing to get unlimited access to the Monster (its always parked outside stadium) . The only other way of getting it is by unlocking it from the San Fierro dock, then buying it on the right day.

Tips for completing the 8 track:

- Damage is your main enemy. I've never lost the race due to being slow, always by my car being destroyed.

- Let the A.I cars infront when the race starts, 100% of the time there will be a huge pile up at the first corner. Drive careful and avoid this to gain a hige advantage.

- Dont hit the side of the track, just drive careful and you will eventually overtake all the racers and win comfortably.

- Once your infront its easy to stay infront, as long as you dont crash.

drive up a bit ahead of them and let them walk toward your car. Theyll ask you for a screw and press Y to say yes. She'll get in the car and then you can drive to a secluded area and stop for about 20 seconds. The car shakes, you get health, and paydirt. Then kill the hooker because sometimes she has even more cash and a knife is a nice weapon.

I finished the pimping stuff too, but haven't since tried picking up any hookers... However, if they stay in the car after you get paid for doing the business, it would be a good idea to drive them off the pier. You don't get the bonus money, but then there's no body. I mean think about it, you have sex with someone then murder them? That's a sure way to get caught.

It's too bad you can't eat people, that's the best way to get rid of a body, especially one that has your own bodily fluids on it.  :(
