You can dial 9485550100 and it'll text you the name of the track that's playing on the radio. (Not a cheat as it came from an email within the game).

Re: GTA 4- Help, tips and strategy.
I'm currently stuck on "Search & Delete"... just can't keep up with "Lyle Rivas" for long enough.
------------
If anyone wants an easy way of getting the "One Man Army" Achievement on the 360... [dunno if the PS3 version has some sort of Achievement equivalent too]
Doing it this particular way requires doing it early on when the bridges to Algonquin (Manhattan) are still sealed due to the terror threat.
Steal a vehicle. Drive to one of the bridges linking the first island with Algonquin, & go up to the police roadblock... instant 6 star wanted level. Crash through the roadblock, & spend the next five minutes driving around Algonquin avoiding cops & SWAT etc. When you hit 5 minutes, you get the "One Man Army" Achievement.
I crashed my first car in the roadblock, so ended up stealing on of the SWAT vans.

First off make sure you have full health and armour, then walk in the club with no weapons in hand, as you leave the lobby in the main room walk up and eavesdrop the conversation of 2 guys by the railing on the left, they talk of a manager counting money in the back. A red dot shows where, creep in draw your baseball bat and kill him before he shoots.
The second conversation to eavesdrop is just past the stage on the left, a guy talking to a stripper, he is talking about how to pronounce the name "Javier", a red dot shows the second manager, but don't kill him yet.
Make your way to the private dance rooms at the back, as you approach the room on the left a bouncer says,"Jesus test drives all the new bitches", this identifies the manager behind him. As soon as you fire all hell breaks loose, so try and target the manager "Javier" in the main dance area, this leaves the third one in a confined space, just take cover and pick your shots with care. Good luck.

Thanks for that frogstamper, that was great help, i was going wrong by shooting the guy in the office rather than killing him quietly, i managed to do it first time when i did that

Your welcome Shadow, it took me a few attempts before I found the right approach.
By the way if anyone is curious, you gain access to the final island, Alderney, after a mission for Packie McReary called "Three leaf clover", a big bank robbery on Algonquin.

You've done the hard part of the mission Matt, the chase against Rivas is a problem in that you want a fast enough car to keep up, but also one that's strong enough not to "die" too quickly, try using a cop car, with the siren on it has the added bonus of clearing your path.

Re: GTA 4- Help, tips and strategy.
LOL, did use a cop car, but it was already a little wrecked from getting rid of the wanted level.
Will just try again & again...
Did attempt, one time, to shoot his car while driving, but lost control & had a bit of a crash...

Call 911 - wait for the fuzz to arrive.
Shoot an innocent by stander in the head.
Drive off in the fresh cop car.

I remember i had to follow him for some time before i managed to get him, i find if you chase someone for long enough they seem to slow down after a while then you just need to try and ram their car so it spins round then they tend to stop or get out.

He gets a new one with a camera. I don't think that can store numbers either.
I'm stuck on The Snow Storm, any tips?

Re: GTA 4- Help, tips and strategy.
I found an easy way to beat the 6 Star Achievement.
I took a helicopter from the main Island and flew over the last one to get the 6 stars then just flew back to the first Island and stayed high in the sky. The Army choppers didn't come never me. Easy.

after getting the coke i stayed in the room for a bit using the shotgun on any cops/noose that came to me, after a minute or 2 (about 7 or 8 cops/noose), rush out shooting any remaining cops with an uzi then out to the parking lot, skip the bobcat (the pickup) and get a decent car (the parking lot should be relatively empty of cops due to you waiting in the room) and then just drive fast making sure you go left so you're not stuck on the island

Thanks, I keep nearly doing it so it's working. I'll try more later.
When do you unlock the Packie missions?

Alternatively you can run out the main door when its relatively clear then turn right and run through the hole in the fence and jump in the water where you'll find a "jetmax" for your escape, just head straight out to sea to lose your wanted level.

I don't think so, they'll both probably start hating you. I killed Dwayne and then X didn't wanna talk to me ever again.
