ASSASSINATIONS
After completing ‘Truck Hustel’ for Phil, you’ll get a call telling you to go to the payphone. Head to the payphone and you’ll meet a guy named, Fixer, who gives the locations of your targets. Your task is simple – travel to the location and carry out the hit. There are around nine targets waiting for you to come and kill them and yes they are very easy to get as long as you use your brain and stay alive without getting busted.
i. BAILING OUT FOR GOOD – Your target is resting in the local police station and will leave in a while, go to the spot and wait for him to come. Then draw out your sniper and put a bullet in his head to complete the mission, if you don’t have a sniper then use your RPG and blast his car when he enters.
ii. DEAD DROP – The target is currently escaping in a car, you can either chase after him and paint his car with bullets or use your head and take a taxi to get to the spot before he does and kill him along with his buddies, the second method worked for me so it’ll work for as well.
iii. DERELICT TARGET – Annoying missions which’ll make you scream and yell because of the number targets inside the building. You need to kill three marked targets, who are pathetically guarded by armed body guards. Snipe out as many as you can from outside the building and fill your bag with some rifle ammos, you’ll need them… in loads. Enter the building and be prepare for an all out shooting and get some cover for ass, take out guards patrolling in the first floor and move to the second, look for the targets and take them out as soon as you find them. Once the building is cleansed and painted, drag yourself out of the area to complete the assassination.
iv. HOOK, LINE AND SINKER – Get yourself a car or take a taxi ride and get to the spot. Once there, it’ll become apparent that the target is in a boat and you’ll be instructed to chase after and kill him. If you are lazy like me then equip your sniper and hit him in the head to complete the job.
v. INDUSTRIAL ACTION – At the beginning level of the mission, you’ll be instructed to kill three targets dwelling in the Acter industrial area. But as you get closer to the spot, it’ll be changed to killing all the flies living inside the building. Climb upstairs and get yourself a vantage point from where you can take out as many guards as you can with least damage, if you are running low on sniper ammo then use a rifle. Blow the guards patrolling then snipe out the remaining in the area, use a RPG or a grenade if you are having trouble sniping all of them.
vi. MIGRATION CONTROL – The target is about to leave in a helicopter near Booth Tunnel, drive to the spot and you’ll see the chopper is about to take off. You can either blast the chopper preventing the target from entering and then kill him or wait for him to enter the helicopter and blast it before it takes off.
vii. R.U.B DOWN – Drive to the spot where the deal is going on and you’ll see the bikers hanging out near their bikes. Wipe out your rocket launcher and fire two-three rockets at a time to blow up their bikes, this’ll kill most of the dealers and prevent the survivors from escaping.
viii. TAKEN OUT – Another RPG assassination. Drive ahead of the target and stop your car where you are sure to get a clear shot. Then draw out rocker launcher and blast the car to complete the mission.
ix. WATER HAZARD – Drive to the spot and gift the target a sniper bullet. Mission Accomplished.

I never get bored of these things, I always liked it in Vice City. Hop onto a vehicle… go full speed… jump from the edge to trigger a cinematic scene… I love it. There are 50 stunts which can be performed using a bike or a car though bike is preferred. Just plan out where you need to jump and how to get there in full speed and you’ll do it just fine. Head over to www.whattheydonotwantyoutoknow.com for a map. Secret tip: *whispering* they are lot easier then San Andreas.

Well you guys must already know this is right? Yes the same old vigilante missions done using police car, bust several criminals and complete all 20 levels to complete the task. Blah. There’s nothing much to it, steal a car, lose the cops, turn your vigilante mission and bust the criminals. Easy and boring.
