I have a gameshark, how can I do to go LC with it ??? I jump over the disk and fly till I arrive to LC ??? lol

Interesting link by the way, I'm gonna try it right away
You can use gameshark codes to get there. But if you don't have gameshark you can do it just like in the video ;)
 
Aight, I tried the glitch but I wasnt able to pass from the "nowhere garage" to LC. I was blocked by a wall (invisible wall). Maybe I missed a yellow mark but I will try later today before going to the christmas eve.
 
Just picked up the game for xbox now, not too different, good lighting but you can hardly see the shadows.

Anyways, right now I just cruise around looking for game tags to spray over, go to off track betting to get some cash legitimately, look for new cars, etc....

getting some gang members to cruise with you while looking for tags is handy, they basically cover you when you are driving slow or have to get out to spray a tag. I dont think rival gangs were this violent towards me in the ps2 version but then again Im wearing all green right now.
 
Well, on the Los Santos highway, where it comes out of the forest, a few feet from the Highway "Crossovers" in downtown, going towards the airport, there's a large slope going downwards (or upwards).

I usually park a car there. They come down the hill and boom. And its funny because then they pile-up, and after a while any other car comes down the hill, hits 'em and goes flying in the air. :lol:

I'll be trying it in the other direction today to see if they go higher.
But it's d*mn funny.
 
Yeah it's great making pile ups, then coppers get rear ended and shoot the guys till the cars blow up, then there's doors flying everywhere. Good fun.
 
There's a park on the east end of Chinatown, 2 blocks south of Lombard St. in SF. For some reason, cars coming down the hill here go outragously fast (on my game, anyway). Pileups there tend to be pretty good.

Imagine if the next series had snow...with snowy roads. That would lead to some awesome innevitable mayhem.
Hmm....what major cities are there that snow? They could try New York City again, and add it and being the PS3 should be able to handle it, make seasonal changes....opps, save this for the Suggestion Thread.
 
the problem with snow is that if theres a copper infront of u then you wont be able to break in time which is annoyin if u dont want a wanted level
 
Only a problem if you’re speeding! The laws are there for a reason, speed_demon! :lol:
 
i usually drive around as casually as possible, enjoying the scenery. then when someone cuts me up i turn into psychotic driver and get 6 stars :lol:

i also mod cars and drive them around like a chav :lol:
 
I like to shoot Catalina with a shotgun, shoot her in her back, she falls down, keep shooting her in her face until she dies, I love it!



I hate that women!!!
 
Take a plane and fly north....yes....for 2 hours if I can:p Over the sea and just switching to a TV channel in between sometimes.

Presumably that's how you can get "hidden territories" to appear. That ever happen to you?
 
That's what I did one of these days but nothing happened. Granted I didn't fly for hours, but I figured the amount of new territories could be proportional to the flight time. So I expected at least one or two would appear.

I suppose I'll just have to grab the Hydra and let it soar for an hour or so, then come back for some results.
 
Yeah, I also tried it (with Blake, I think), and nothing happened. But it has been proven before by quite a number of people. I think you need to fly a long distance. I didn't really go all out, either.
 
I never tried it (on purpose) but got a few extra teritories in SF and LV-- the glitch is supposed to be related to not just going way out to sea but staying there..... so fly out there bail out and then just wait a few hours-- you shouldn't drown-- CJ will just tread water--- after a few hours drown yourself and you should have a bunch of new territories on the map

this is listed on gamefaqs.com... http://www.gamefaqs.com/console/ps2/game/914983.html

Although that guide has a few mistakes (like saying you will starve to DEATH)-- while I've never tried it, someone on here said (Blake I think) your health will decrease to a sliver but you won't die---the guide says you have to enter the health cheat... I don't think this is necessary... although I have yet to see if I "won't" starve..

According to the guide you need to keep flying in a direction for at least 3 hours to get all 178 territories-- possibly longer...
 
i havent done this but iv heard of it on other sites

take the hydra and go really high over maddoggs mansion and jump out and try and land in the pool

Probably will kill you....

Then bail out and tread water for a few hours and drown? I really wanna try this it sounds cool
 
wouldnt u still die in maddogs pool because its still very shallow

i only ever tried this one once but i tried killing every single cop in los ventuaras and i found that it realy is impossible because there seems to be a nerver ending amount of police and i ended up being killed after killing about 47 police

Well you will never know since you only killed 47 of them...

But.... as in all GTAs the peds and cops just respawn.... they don't exist in the game very far outside of where you can see--- really no reason for the game to have to keep track of peds outside of this area around you....

if you click the killing link in my sig, I detail my killing methods in VC and both are dependant upon the respawning of cops or FBI ranchers as live ones are killed/destroyed... I wasn't able to find a nearly as fast area for them to respawn in SA--- so at least in that respect, there are less cops available to kill in SA
 
Are you people still playing San Andreas? I can't remember the last time I played it. I'm not sure if I've played it this year.

I play sometimes, just for a few 4 star cop chases or so. But still only have about 310 - 315hours of gameplay, so i havnt really touched the game much in the past 6mths.
 
I think I quit playing after about 270-280 hours of gameplay. I can't see myself working up the same kind of time, (200 - 300 hours+) on the Liberty City Stories game.

But I'llm buy it and complete it to 100% just for completeness sake, like everyone here I'm sure. And there's sure to be all sorts of extracurricular fun to make it last a while.

I like modifying it (the PC version).

I've found the GTA garage mod manager works wonders. Just give it the location of 2 files for the replacement, and it does all the work for you. I've had some problems with it crashing my game, though, so you just have to make sure you create a backup of each car you're about to modify.

Here's a few screens:








Oh, and yeah, my graphics card sucks.
 
Without using the map, choose a place to go to and go there.
