Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas Tips & Tricks

When you first start the game, go to the underpass two doors from your house in the Ganton area. There are brass knuckles in the grass.

Go behind Sweet's house. In the corner will be a gun.

Jump on top of Sweet's house, then jump on roofs towards CJ's house. On top of one will be a machine gun.

There is an Uzi under the bridge in the waterway to the right of your house in the Ganton area when you exit it.

Once you've been nicked, you will find yourself outside the police station (or the police station in Pershing Square area of Los Santos). You can enter the police station, provided you have no weapons. Go inside, find the showers. In there you will find a double ended dildo! You can pick this up and use it as a weapon.

To get a double ended dildo you can go to the police station in Los Santos Police Station or to a broken down car wash. To get the one in the Police Station, you must get busted when your at Sweat\'s house. After you get busted you will be back in front of the Police Station. Turn back around and walk in. Then walk to the back of the hallway. Next, turn to you left and walk to the end. You will see a double ended dildo hovering in the air. Walk up to it, and it will become a weapon.

An easy way to get weapons quickly is to kill clerks at Ammu-Nation. Go on Vigilant Missions for police (get a police vehicle - press R3), and kill other gang members.

Cj can lose weight by exercising or dieting. If you want CJ to go on a diet, you must avoid food for 48 game hours (48 real-time minutes) which will cause him to lose fat at a rate of 2.5% per hour. Following an additional 26 hours, he will lose muscle at a rate of 2.5% per hour and once his fat stat reaches 0, he will begin to lose health.

The more CJ swims the greater his lung capacity becomes. This becomes important if you are being chased and need to dive down underwater so that your attacker loses your trail.

Picking the right clothes can help by increasing both respect and sex appeal. Clothing accounts for about 50% of your overall sex appeal and 4% of your respect level. The better CJ looks the more positive comments he'll receive from pedestrians passing by. For cost effective clothing try Surburban (Opens during Sweet's fourth mission "Nines & AKs") and Zip (when you enter San Fierro storyline)
