Mission Great Deal: 
 After you kill the hoodlums at te 3rd, and the guys just level under, 
 behind the white car at the end of this floor there is a box of grenade 
 (usefull) to destroy the two car at the end and the guys hiding behind it.
 
 Easy Method for Escape in Lucky bastard:
 to  lose the tail : get away then stop and wait them : shoot two tires 
 of their car and then get back in your and get away, you get it! (just 
 pay attention for cops, if one car come, just kill them before the wanted 
 bar appears)
 
 In general if the cops are behind you with wanted bar: 
 go to the nearest metro station, get on the dock of metro station, if the 
 cops follow you, get on the tracks then by pressing the jump key, go in 
 the dock in front they can't follow you! they go on the tracks but they 
 can't jump on the dock! Take the metro and stay in until the wanted bar 
 desappear! Then steal a new car and resume your mission.

 Mow down:
 Easy way to mow down Speedy Gonzalez-Steal a car and drive to the corner 
 a block west of where he is. Line him up on the sidewalk and floor it. 
 The dumbass will run right into you.
 
 Get Silver Fletcher (easier method)
 On the mission 'Visiting rich people' there is an alternative way to get 
 the Silver Fletcher (this is the so called bullet proof tank of a car 
 Morello drives). When you get to the final part of the mission when you 
 are leaving the villa, you should see the car the owner of the house 
 pulled up in under a car port. Walk up to it and then ask that guy 
 that's following you to open it up as you did getting into the villa 
 in the first place. He will lock pick it and you would have learned 
 how to lockpick it. Presto! You now have the Silver Fletcher and don't 
 have to spend ages trying to get it from the airport on mission 16 or 
 something when you're trying to assasinate Morello. 
 
 Get Silver Fletcher:
 Take the one parked behind the Lassiter Appolyon you are supposed to steal. 
 It's unlocked and no-one chases you! 
 
 Get drunk
 In mission "Happy Birthday" when you are on steamboat (when you need to 
 assinate the concilour) go to the second floor and into the bar. 
 You will see a glass of wine on the to left of bar. Go there and push 
 "action button". Push as many times as you can (three times) and you will 
 get drunk.

 Win the race:
 Drive up to the first checkpoint and slow down. Behind the 
 boulders is a short patch of sand where you can drive onto 
 the closed road. This of course is the "wrong way" and if 
 you plan to go through it, you will be faster but not complete 
 the lap. You will not win unless you do the following. 
 Drive up to the end of the road, just past the "Dunniel" 
 (or something similar) sign, where you get your checkpoint 
 information and select "Replace Car" (default is [Keypad 0]). 
 The goal is now just a few inches away. You must to do this 
 five times. By doing so, you can finish the race in a little 
 less than six minutes. Note: Make sure you do not crash on the 
 closed road as the "Replace Car" might not work there, or will 
 place you back to the first checkpoint.
 

 Shoot off tires:
 Aiming at tires and shooting where the bolts are, in the middle.
 This works best with the Tommy gun.

 Killing people in black suits:
 Walk behind them and shoot them. This works best with the sawed off shotgun.

 Fast reload:
 Press [Reload], then roll left or right.

 Free repair to damaged car in freeride mode:
 If you have a flat tire or any other damage to your car, just drive out to the 
 countryside (so that a loading screen appears). After the load, your car will be 
 fixed. 

 Lose cops quickly:
 Get to a rail station, elevated rail station, or trolley. Get in and wait until your 
 wanted level goes down.

 Ordinary Routine: Easier mission: 
 You can save some effort by shooting the tires on the getaway car before you try 
 to enter the hotel. It is much easier than trying to shoot them while driving at the 
 same time.


 Free Lassiteer V16 roadster:
 Go into free ride mode and choose City-Small and any car. Drive around in 
 the "working quarters" (the industrial district) until you find a two story car park 
 (garage) next to a building with a sign that reads "Lost Heaven Hardware Co.". 
 Drive up the ramp to the second level. In the corner, there should be a large 
 green car. Walk over and get in. It is unlocked and you do not need to know how 
 to steal it in order to so. This car is fast and is very rare. You will receive money 
 for driving it dangerously fast without crashing. If you do crash, it is very durable 
 and will be able to withstand a lot of damage. If you have trouble finding it, it is 
 the cement two level car-park in the work quarters next to a main road with 
 trolley tracks running on it. This is also the main road that goes under the train 
 tracks and runs past the grain silos.

 
 Cheat:
 I've read and been told of being able to bring up the console when 
 playing "Mafia-The City of Lost Heaven" by pressing "shift + ~" . 
 I can't seem to get that to work. Is there a line I must add to my 
 desktop shortcut's "target" line in order to be able to bring up 
 the console?
 
 I have read of the following cheats that can be typed once the 
 console is activated: 
 Badgangsters = godmode
 Deadguns     = guns and ammo
 Mademan      = health
