Car Ratings---------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- I will give the cars a rating anywhere from 1-5. Five means excellent, One means it sticks beyond belief. Some of the descriptions come from Yergin's FAQ. Thanks! car_0000 *********************************************************************** ********************************Chicago******************************** *********************************************************************** Car One: Has a quick take off, good for attacking the cops, and also good for getting away from them. Overall a good all around car. 3.8/5 Car Two: A boxy car which is not very good at steering. Nothing special about it. 2.6/5 Car Three: Slightly better then Car Two, but still not as good. Nothing special, but no major flaws either. 3.0/5 Van: Not good at all. The only good thing about it is it's toughness, but a wheelman like you does not need a tough car to make it through chases! 2.0/5 Cop Car: The cop cars are by far the best cars you can get in the game. But if you steal one the price is full felony. Unless you choose the cop in the car select. But if you get out and back in, boom, full felony! 4.4/5 Fire Engine: The worst car you can get in Chicago. It is slow, bulky, hard to steer, and the only plus that should come out of it, the cops chase you anyway! 1.6/5 Armored Van: It is good at turning, and good at strength, for what type of vehicle it is. Poor speed, but it is better then other bulky vans. 3.0/5 School Bus: Something similar to the fire engine, but slightly better handling. But it is pretty much the same thing. 1.8/5 *********************************************************************** ********************************Havana********************************* *********************************************************************** Car One: Very good. Easy to move around with, good speed... 4.0/5 Car Two: Not as good but still better then you would think. Quick, and easy to handle, good for car chases. 3.2/5 Car Three: Not as good as the second, not very speedy, you need to be a good driver if you want to get away from the coppers. 2.8/5 Pick Up Truck: Expecting something slow and tough? Well, it is tough, but its quicker. Not race car fast, but still pretty good. 2.8/5 Cop Car: Exactly the same as the Chicago police car, but a horrible siren. 4.4/5 Truck with Roof: It's the truck you chase during the second and third mission. They are slow, and OK handling 2.2/5 Truck with Tray: No different from the truck with the roof. 2.2/5 Bus: The best looking bus in the game, but it still handles the same. 2.0/5 Purple Van: It has pretty bad turning, but the top speed is good. 2.4/5 *********************************************************************** *******************************Las Vegas******************************* *********************************************************************** Car One: Good speed and acceleration, great handling, good strength. 3.8/5 Car Two: Not even close to the goodness of Car One. Slow, decent speed and strength. 2.6/5 Car Three: Even worse. A little slower, and not as tough. 2.4/5 4X4: A great car for the secret area in Vegas. I will explain how to get there later. Good speed, not so good acceleration. 3.0/5 Cop Car: Just like the Chicago and Havana cop cars, but it looks better. 4.4/5 Limo: Useless for chases, and boxy, but they have pretty good speed. 2.8/5 Ambulance: Better then you think. Pretty fast, but the cops still chase you. 3.0/5 Truck: The exact same truck as in Havana. 2.2/5 Campervan: Yuck. Worst car in the game. Boxy, slow, can't steer good, don't waste your time. 1.2/5 *********************************************************************** **********************************Rio********************************** *********************************************************************** Car One: Pretty fast, decent turning, good for car chases 3.8/5 Car Two: An all-around car, even stats. Decent for car chases. 3.2/5 Car Three: Boxy, not so good for car chases. 2.6/5 Utility: Good turning, decent strength, decent for car chases 3.0/5 Cop Car: Exactly the same as all of the other cop cars. 4.4/5 Bus: Just like the bus in havana. 2.0/5 Pick Up: Good strength, but not so good speed or handling. 2.6/5 Fire Engine: Just like the one in chicago, but a different look. 1.6/5 Limo: Same as the vegas limo, except it is black. The stats are not so good though. Points up because its jet black! 2.0/5 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- -----------------------------V. Walkthrough---------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ======================================================================= ================================DISK ONE=============================== ======================================================================= *********************************************************************** *****************************[V.1] Chicago***************************** *********************************************************************** chi_0000 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- chi_0001 Mission 1: Surveillance Tip Off Message: Tobias has discovered an eyewitness and is waiting at his location. You must drive there before time runs out, and get in Tobias' car. Directions: Run to the car with the red arrow over it. Turn to the left and turn right when you pull out of the alley. At the end of the road, turn to the left. Keep going until you reach the second road that goes right. Turn right onto that street. You will be on this street for a while. Follow the curve to the left, and right after the curve turn right. After yet another left curve, turn right onto the second street. Next turn left onto the first street. You will recieve a message saying "Get into Jones' car.". Get out of your car, and jump into Jones' car. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- chi_0002 Mission 2: Chase the Witness Message: Chase the witness across town until he reached the monorail station. Directions: This mission only requires you to follow the witness. He will be in a blue sedan. At the start, turn right in between the lightpoles. Make sure not to hit any of them though. Go straight. The witness will take a left on the first street. Watch out for the gray car pulling up in the right lane though. I suggest not doing any of the crazy moves the witness does. Staying straight will keep up with him just fine. He will take a right on the next street immediately after the left curve. Try to squeeze between the tree and the red car. He will stay straight the rest of the way. With seven seconds left, it will go into a cut scene where the witness goes into a train. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- chi_0003 Mission 3: Train Chase Message: Chase the witnesses train. Directions: Now you have to follow the train the witness is on. This is a straightforward mission, all you have to do is follow the yellow path, but I will guide you through anyway. You will begin with a rolling start, right into sand(?) piles. Don't swerve crazily to get around them, but just barely hit them and stay straight and you will be fine. At the nd of that, take a right, and ride on the sidewalk. Take a left at the first street, and stay at the ruight side of the road. Take another right and stay on the right side of the road. There is a minor shortcut here. Right before the train turn is a little road. Take a right on it, and stay toward the left, since you don't want him to "get away". At the first street, take a left. Drive on the sidewalk of the left side of the road so you don't have to deal with traffic. After passing a couple of streets and a couple of alleyways, the train will turn left, into an alley way. Stay under him, and take a right right after the alleyway ends. Drive back onto the left sidewalk again. After passing a couple of streets, go straight into the dirt alleyway with the boxes. Take a left, staying with him, then another right onto the wide road. Drive across the bridge. When there is four possible ways the train can go, take a left. Quickly drive to the stairs at the left side o fthe road, stop right next to the stairs, and quickly run up. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- chi_0004 Mission 4: Tailing the Drop Message: Tail the car across town to the customs yard. Directions: In this mission, you have to be careful. If you go too fast he will spot you, if you go to slow, you will lose him. This mission might have the person you are tailing go a different direction then what I mention here. Hopefully it is the same, but it may not always be the case Once he pulls out of the driveway, keep a sort of slow pace behind him. Chances are, there will be a tan car pulling out in front of the car you are trailing, so you have to stop fast. Go backwards if needed. After this encounter, he will turn right. Follow them up the bridge, and he will sto pfor a red light just beyond the bridge. Stop around the middle of the bridge, so the line is in the green. Once the line starts moving again, you start moving again. He will take a right after it turns green. After going through a left curve, and going up yet another bridge, he will stop at the red light. Stay around the front of the bridge so you can watch him. This time, he will take a left. He will now turn right into a small driveway into a warehouse. He will drive into the warehouse. Floor it and you will go in too. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- chi_0005 Mission 5: Escape to the Safe House Message: Escape to your apartment without a police tail. If you pick up a tail, (you will) you must lose them. Directions: This will be your first mission where there will be cops chasing you. Once you get control of the car, two cops will be after you. Ack. Take a right at the end of the alleyway, then take your first left. Follow the curve, and then take your first right. Once you lose the cops, you can change cars. It will help getting away. Go straight. At the end of this road, take a right, followed by a quick left. Keep going straight, and at the end of the road, take a left. Floor it, you will be on this road for pretty much the rest of the mission. Swerve in and out of cars to lose tails, and if you have time, try to switch cars every once in a while. Once you reach the Gold Coast (it is there at the map on the bottom left of the screen), you are almost there. Once you pass the last side road of the road, turn right into the alleyway. You can tell which one it is by the cones and barriers around it. Floor it and you are there! ----------------------------------------------------------------------- chi_0006 Mission 6: Chase the Intruder Message: What the H&%$! You wake up from Jericho's nose bashing and run downstairs only to see him driving away. You gotta catch him! Directions: This is not really a mission I can help you with. When you control Tanner, jump into the gray car, and turn left, and turn right out of the alley way. He will always take a left at the end of the road, but after this, Jericho's path is not programmed, so he can take anywhere. This is why I can not help you. I will pick it up later on. When you cross the bridge with about 30 seconds left, you know you are close. He will turn right into a warehouse. Once he does, follow him, then turn left, then take aright into the big warehouse, now keep going straight. He will take a right then a left a little bit after. Right after you take the left, a cutscene will occur. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- chi_0007 Mission 7: Escape from the Compound Message: That was close. Nobody wants to catch shotgun pellets with their tongue. Now its time to get out of the compound Directions: This took me so long to beat the first time I played through, it is not even funny! When you start, turn around, and get in either the brown or the green car. When you pull out, make a U-turn and head straight. At the end of the alleyway, turn right. A van will be blocking your way, turn around and go into the warehouse. Head toward the right, and turn right at the end of the warehouse. Head straight, and go through the alleyway. Take a right, and then head into the next warehouse, go through the side door, since the main door will be blocked by two vans. Take a left, and head the direction you was going. Keep heading straight, until you reach a narrow alleyway. A van will block the direct way, so again, take a right into the alleyway. Take a left inside the warehouse. Head toward the right, and go to the left of the area with trees and turn right, then turn left into the warehouse. Go to the right onto the street, then take a left into the next warehouse right before the bridge. Take a left, and go straight until you see on the right an alleyway with barrels and barriers. Head in there, and cut left into the side warehouse. Take a slight right outside of thw warehouse and head straight. Head slightly right again, and into the alleyway with the boxes. Take a right into the really big warehouse, and floor it. Once you get to the end take a left. There will be a yellow van bent on killing you. Head north until you reach the end of the road. Take a right and go into the warehouse to your right. Keep heading straight and left of the first building. Go right of the next building. Keep heading either left or right until you reach the warehouse. Go through the two warehouses. Stay to the left of the buildings until you reach a warehouse real close to the end. Go right through there, and then left onto the street. Fly over the raising drawbridge. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- chi_0008 Mission 8: Getting out of Chicago Message: The Brazilians are angry. It's time for both you and Jones to make your getaway Directions: It will be night time, and raining, and there will be lots of cars chasing after you, and not just police cars. Once you start, turn around, and take a left on the first street you see. When you get to the next intersection, take a right, but sort of keep going straight, and you will end up on a third road. You will know if you are on the right one if it curves right a little bit after. Keep following this road until it ends. Take a right, then take the first left. Count the roads that you can turn right on. When you reach the fourth, take a right. Follow this road until you reach the train station. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- --------Congrats! You made it through Chicago! Now comes Havana-------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------- *********************************************************************** *****************************[V.2] Havana****************************** *********************************************************************** hav_0000 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- hav_0001 Mission 1: Follow the Lead Message: You must tail the lead nice and easy. Too close and he will see you. Too far and you will lose him. Directions: Just like the message says, just follow him nice and slow. This mission may have the person you are tailing go a different direction then what I mention here. Hopefully you will get the same path, but it may not always be that way. When you start, take a left. Keep following this road until you get near the first four way intersection. He will probably stop for traffic, but he will go around them, and take a right. Next he will turn right on the second four way intersection. Follow this road, and then take a left once you go around the tight corner. After turning left, he will then take a right. He will they take a right at the end of the road. Next he will take the second left. Keep going straight until the cut scene appears. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- hav_0002 Mission 2: Capture the Truck Message: We have to dispose of the truck's escort and then board the truck and drive it to the lock up. Directions: This is my favorite type of mission, one where you have to destroy a car. Try to remember the lock up area, you will be going here a few times during your stay in Havana. Once you start, there will be a truck in front of you, and a car behind you. You will need to avoid the car, while damaging the truck. Since the truck seems to make random turns, I can not really help. But once you damage the truck enough, the people inside will run away, and you can hijack it. However, the truck will have tons of damage on it, so you need to be careful. I suggest going all the way north to the main road and heading west until you reach the hideout area. Take the second left after the S curve, and go straight until you see an alleyway. Turn left into it, and pull up to the door. Get out, go to the left side of the door and press triangle near the switch to open the door. Then drive your truck in, and close the door from the inside. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- hav_0003 Mission 3: Stop the Truck Message: Stop the truck from getting across town. Directions: Now you have to stop another truck. This time it is filled with dynomite, and they will throw it at you. You will start out on the four lane highway. Drive between the poles, and stay on the left side. The truck will always stay on the four lane highway, so you have to keep up with him while avoiding cars and explosives. But once you get the truck, again, the truck will be highly damaged. Stay on the four way highway going west until you pass the VEDADO S-curve. Take your second left there, and after the first street, turn left into the alleyway. Open the door, pull the truck in, and close the door. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- hav_0004 Mission 4: Find the Clue Message: Four cars and one of them's got the file that puts a face and a place to Rosanna Soto. Find the cars before the city swallows them. Directions: This is by far the hardest mission so far. It just may be the hardest mission in the game. Destroy the cars by getting into head on collisions with them, running them into walls, or crashing them into lightpoles or other cars. The first car will start out in Necropolis de Colsa(?), and head north. Then he goes to the PLAZA DE LA REVOLUCTON, and stays around that area. Nope, the file isn't in the first car. The second car is just east of the PLAZA DE LA REVOLUCTON. He will tend to stay around this area. Nope, no file here either. The third car will be around the same area as the second car. Try to get him into a head on collision. Nope, no more file, it must be in the last car. The last car is just south of Capiballo(?). He will drive north pretty much. Use the strategies I listed at the beginning, and you will pass. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- hav_0005 Mission 5: Escape to the Ferry Message: Get in the ferry Directions: The cops are gonna be on you like metal is on a magnet. When you start, go south, and take a left at the end of the road. Now take your first right, followed by your first left. Now stay on this road and floor it, watching out for the cross traffic. After the four lane highway, you will enter the ferry area. Take the left curve, and go straight, lining up between the two gray things, which is part of the ferry, and fly onto the ferry. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- hav_0006 Mission 6: To the Docks Message: Get off the ferry. Get to the docks to follow up the clue. Directions: You will start on the ferry again. Pull out, and take a left. Cut through the grass. When you see the huge rock structure to the right, turn that way through the grass. That is the tunnel you need to go in. Make a U-turn and go through the tunnel. Once you are out of the tunnel keep going straight. There may be a roadblock during the road. Sneak by to the left of it, you might get a felony level though. At the end of the road take a right, followed by a quick left. At the end of this road, take another right, then take the second left. At the end of this road, take a left. Go straight until you see a road that has many turns. Take this road as it leads to the docks. When you see a gate with an entrance to it, go in there. Go through the middle of the building, and head sort of straight-right into the arrow. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- hav_0007 Mission 7: Back to Jones Message: Locate Jones then get into his car. Directions: Run into the blue car, and floor it out of the docks. Its hard to see, so keep watching to the left until you see a barricade, run over it and out of the docks. Turn to the right. Keep going through the zig-zag road and turn to the right at the end. Keep turning right at every road you come into. When you pass those overpasses, look left, after the S curve Jones' car will be sitting there. Go over there and get in. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- hav_0008 Mission 8: Tail Jericho Message: Tail this guy. Don't lose him, Don't get seen. Directions: Just like the other tail missions, just take it nice and easy. He will go west while passing a couple of streets. He will take the second right, and head north. After a few streets, he will take a left, then he will take the first right. Keep going until the cut scene appears. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- hav_0009 Mission 9: Pursue Jericho Message: Chase Jericho. Wreck his car. Directions: This one is pretty easy. Get into any car (the pink car is best), then pull out and take a left. He will take the first right onto a narrow road. You have the fastest car, so you should be able to take him out on this road. Just keep runinng into him, and eventually, he will crash. Get into his car. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- hav_0010 Mission 10: Escape the Brazilians Message: Find the safehouse Directions: There are going to be Brazilians all over you, and you are on the other side of the city from where your destination is. When you start, head north, then at the end of the road, take a left. You can stay on this road for a long time, or you can get on the wider road along the water. I will give the directions for when you take the wider road. After you take a left, keep going until you reach the MALOCON. Head north at the MALOCON, then take a left once you reach the four lane highway. Keep going until you pass the S-Curve at VEDADO. Take your second left after the curve. Then after the first street turn left into the alleyway. Open the door, pull in, and close the door from the inside. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ------Congrats! You made it through Havana! Now comes Las Vegas!------ ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ======================================================================= =================================DISK 2================================ ======================================================================= *********************************************************************** ****************************[V.3] Las Vegas**************************** *********************************************************************** las_0000 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- las_0001 Mission 1: Casino Getaway Message: You are working for Caine. Get to the casino and pick up his gang. Directions: Hope into your red car and take a left onto the Vegas Strip. Turn right into a casino and a cut scene should occur, where you pick up his guys. Now you got about 40% felony level. Get back onto the strip and head south more. Keep going south until you reach the end o fthe strip. Take a right at the end of the strip. In between the two buildings on the left side of the road is the lock up. Go straight, and in the area where the building sort of bends right in front of you is the lock up. Just pull in. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- las_0002 Mission 2: Beat the Train Message: Vasquez has got one of my men dumped in the trunk of a car. Get him out, Tanner. Directions: Try to keep full throttle this whole mission. Stay to the right of the first hill, you don't need to get on it. But on the second hill go up it, and try to aim it so you can go through the fence, and make a second jump to the right of the trailer all without slowing down. This is tough, but you will get the hang of it soon enough. Hopefully you will pass him with around 20 seconds left. Drive on the tracks, and you will see the bridge and the car on the tracks. Quickly get out of your truck, run to the car, get in, and pull to the left side of the tracks before the train comes. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- las_0003 Mission 3: Car Bom Message: Can you believe the stones on Vasquez? He sends me a car bomb. We're gona gift wrap it back. Directions: Run across the street and get in the car. Back up and go north until you reach the highway at the very northern end of Lakeside. Stay on this road until you reah the 90 degree right turn. After the turn, immediately turn left. Keep following this road until you reach the freeway, take a right. There is an on ramp on the other side of the road which will take you to the road you need to be on. Take this on ramp. After taking this, turn left. Turn right on the Vegas Strip (first four way intersection) and keep going south until you reach his casino on the left side of the road. Turn left, and go through the maze of gardens. Then pull into the arrow, get out, and run through the small alleyway. The car bomb will go off. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- las_0004 Mission 4: Car Bomb Getaway Message: Get a car. Get to a safe house. Directions: Run up the alley and go to the left and get into the truck. Turn right, then make another right onto the Vegas Strip. Keep going south until you pass the words LOWER STRIP on the map on the bottom right. After you pass the LOWER STRIP part on your map, take the third left. After passing the first street, pull into the sandy area at the left side and into the red arrow. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- las_0005 Mission 5: Bank Job Message: Jericho's run into cops and his driver's down. Get him out before the cops get backup. Directions: Open the door, then get into your red car. Pull out to the right and turn right onto the road. Turn left onto the Vegas Strip. Turn right onto the third street. Turn left at the end of the road. Turn right onto the road right after the two 90 degree turns. Follow this road until the end, then turn left. Keep going until a cut scene opens. Now you will have 50% felony. As soon as it ends, floor the gas and keep going north. Turn left onto the highway and make sure you are going north. Drive on the sand under the northbound bridge, then get on a road as soon as you can. Keep heading north. Get off the exit that is right under the Paradise Rd words on the map, or, it is also the first exit you get to. Keep following the zig zagging road. and turn right at the first road. Turn right onto the Vegas Strop, and quickly make another right turn onto the next road you see. After passing a wall and a building, turn right into the lock up. Get out, and close the door. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- las_0006 Mission 6: Steal the Ambulance Message: Our driver went down. The medics got him in a cop convoy. We want him out of there. Directions: Pull out of the parking lot, and turn right. The ambulance will be right there. I suggest getting in front of the ambulance and making him push you, while he collects the damage. But this is real easy at the start. He will stay straight in this road, and then take a right at the end. After this, its random, the path isn't programmed. Once you knock him out, you will have to go to the southwestern part of Las Vegas. I got him just south of Tropicana so I will give directions from there. Go west, and at the end of the road, turn left, and keep heading south. Turn onto the second marked street on the map, and then take your second left onto the Vegas Strip. Take a right at the end of the strip. In between the two white buildings is an alleyway. Park in the red arrow. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- las_0007 Mission 7: Stealth Message: If you get me to the airport, I got a ride waiting. Just don't hit any cops in town; I want them off my trail and thinking I'm still here. Directions: Once you get control of the car, head west toward the strip. When you get to the stirp, take a left.

Since this guy is extremely good at getting away, try to cut in front of him when you turn to the right, so he will push you and he will get damaged a lot.
