Recently, Rockstar Games revealed the trailer for Grand Theft Auto Trilogy: The Definitive Edition, giving our first remastered look at Grand Theft Auto III, GTA: Vice City, and GTA: San Andreas. Of course, with any Grand Theft Auto game, there's a plethora of tricks to deploy, from infinite ammo to pedestrian riots.
Players looking to return to Grand Theft Auto III may have some of these tips etched in the back of their memories for eternity - if you're a little rusty or it's your first time (or if that knowledge has been replaced by GTA V and Red Dead Redemption 2 cheats), here's a refresher before you dive back into the updated world of Liberty City.
Enter any of these commands anytime during the game and they should work. If the controls respond to something like the classic games did, you need to complete the sequence quickly. If successful, a notification will appear on the screen.
NOTE: Existing Xbox tips are only valid for legacy consoles. Stay tuned to Pro Game Guides for when tips are revealed for next-gen Xbox and Nintendo Switch systems.
