Swim underwater and never have to worry about drowning! |
Hitman level in all weapons | | Automatically gives you the hitman level for all weapons. |

|
Streets deserted except for gunmen fighting in the streets. No cops or regular citizens. No traffic except in gang territories. |
Gang Members Everywhere * |
|
Gangs will appear all over the state, even in areas where you wouldn't
normally expect to find them (Ballas in Las Venturas, for example).
Similar to the 'Gangs Rule the Streets' cheat, except pedestrians are
basically "replaced" by gangsters, so they drive around etc aswell. |
|
Spawning Objects |
|
|
Vehicles |
|
Cars float away * | | Bump into another vehicle and it will rise into the air and float away. It will float in whichever direction you hit it from, and the angle at which it floats depends on the force you hit it at. |

Traffic is country vehicles (minus hillbilly gear) | | This is the same as the other 'traffic is country vehicles' cheat, although you don't recieve the hillbilly gear. |
Invisible Cars | | All vehicles invisible except motorbikes (only the wheels are invisible). |
Improved Handling (Hit R3 to jump) | |
Reduced Traffic *
|
| No peds and only an occasional car on the street. Parked cars still spawn. Great for cruising. Still enough cars that you're not totally stranded if you wreck your ride. |
Taxis have nitrous * |
| Cannot be turned off. When code is typed in a second time, the "cheat activated" text is again displayed. |
Fast/Rare cars appear regularly * |
|
Cars Fly * |
| But not like they did in Vice City. The controls are more accurate, and the whole process is just like flying a normal plane. |

Massive Bunny Hops | |
CJ has the ability to bunny hop on the BMX over massive distances. |
|
Gameplay |
|

Elvis is alive | | All pedestrians are Elvis. |
Ninja Theme * | | Peds are all Asian dudes with katanas. Traffic is black PCJ-600's, and BF-400's, and FCR-900's. Even cop cars are all black. Get katana. |
Funhouse Theme * | | CJ's appearance changes - a clown nose appears, red hair etc. Pedestrians are replaced with cluckin' bell/well stacked pizza/burger shot workers, and so on. Ice cream vans are seen regularly, and more.. |
Slut Magnet * | | Attract sluts with sex toys & get gimp suit. |
Full Weapon Aiming Whilst Driving * |
| Aim and shoot at passing pedestrians/vehicles, just like your homies would during drive-by shootings. |
Pedestrians Carry Weapons | |
Jump High | |
CJ can now jump 10 times as high as before. Falling down will deduct from health. |
Mega Punch * |
|
Punches send people flying into the next block. One hit kills. Watch out, peds have it too! |
Beach Party | |
Pedestrians turn into girls wearing swimsuits. Vehicles are also beach style and CJ will be dressed in shorts and sandals. |
|
Weather & Time |
|
Orange Sky * |
| Just like those early preview screens they released, like the one where Carl has a giant hand. This cheat locks the clock at 21:00. |
Always Midnight * | | Clock stopped at 00:00. Weird sudden weather changes. If you kill yourself, the time stays at 12:00. |
* Cheats were not officially released by Rockstar Games. They were discovered by edisoncarter from GTA Forums by wiring the PS2 controller up to the PC's parallel port and trying numerous combinations at high speed. Needless to say, this is not recommended for people to try at home, since it also requires special software to make this work.
Quests through the source code of the game also reveal various hidden button codes for special cheats, yet the button combinations are up to the point of writing unknown. Perhaps we shall find out the combinations in the future, but for now these cheats can only be triggered with cheat devices. The unknown cheats include (but are not limited to):
all cars with nitrous
all cars with hydraulics
infinite health
infinite ammo
infinite oxygen
never wanted
anyone can be recruited to your gang
spawn Hunter
spawn Dozer
all streetlights "strobe" streetlights
all cars turn into bikes / countryside cars / sports cars / special vehicles
- 'mission select' code (known to have been used in beta stages, possibly removed)
The rest of the cheat codes and more were finally found 6 months after release not through the brute force method, but by interpreting the hash values created by different combinations of button presses, and then comparing the resulting hashes with hashes for cheat codes programmed into the game. Due to the way the game's cheat codes are programmed (32-bit), it was discovered that every cheat had a huge number of different button combinations that triggered it. So far the list of codes ending with L1 has been extracted, and the estimated number of working combinations is over 200,000.
