Grand Theft Auto: Vice City (Strategy)

Jog down the street and then aim your sniper rifle at the car. Wait until the convoy approaches your roadblock and you see a soldier break away from his buddies. Before he drives your car out of the tank’s path, fire the sniper rifle to trigger flames and an explosion. If you need to clear more soldiers, lob a Molotov or two.

Once you begin your attack, the soldiers and Barrack OLs head straight for you and leave the tank relatively defenseless. You’ve got an opening now, so dodge the soldiers and run right up to the tank. If the driver stubbornly stays inside his tank, bash on the door with a melee weapon to send him running. You’ve taken the tank, but the self-destruct mechanism is activated!

You must guide the Rhino to a nearby garage before the Bomb Meter fills up. Though cars and bullets can’t stop you, the tank is slow enough that a lone cop could run right up and bust you, thus ruining your hard work. Plow through the patrol cars and toward the radar blip, stopping only to park the tank in the garage. Your well-earned reward is a cool $2000.

All Hands on Deck

The French military won’t let up, so Cortez must flee Vice City at once. Before he can even leave the docks, you must defend his yacht from a full-fledged assault. Bring a shotgun, Uzi, and Ruger with plenty of ammo, plus full health and armor meters. Things are about to heat up.

When the mission begins, French gunmen pilot small boats to the starboard and port sides of Cortez’s yacht. Blast them with an Uzi or MP5 to keep them from killing Cortez’s guards (they provide cover fire). Drop to the bottom deck if you need a better shooting perspective…but don’t fall into the water!

After you fend off the first wave of attackers, Cortez’s yacht reaches a harbor blockade. Before Cortez can escape, you must individually target and destroy each ship—use the Ruger’s sniping capabilities to chip away at the ships, and watch out for gunmen zipping around in speedboats. Before you can finish this task, you’re interrupted by a new threat—two threats, to be precise.
