I love Easter Eggs, especially in games, ESPEcially when I've played the game for ages and never noticed some of them, then go back to see. The swimming pool in the shape of the Rockstar Logo was mentioned, but what about the pool in the shape of a woman's torso, with red tiles depicting the bikini, and the diving board aiming right at the crotch?! That made me laugh out loud when I first saw it. (Sorry, don't have a screenshot, but can get one if necessary?)

yeah i didnt noticed the most either pretty funny and u think lik: ''why haven't i noticed that?''

[brucewayne909]

I've never noticed the position of the diving board. Can someone provide a screenshot?

How could you have missed it?

---------------------------------------------

Here's another - pretty obvious - movie reference: During the cutscene to 'Martha's mugshot', Steve Scott talks about the porn movie he's shooting:
"Well, after his close encounter with the nympho-invaders, our hero finds himself unable to think of anything but this huge phallic mountain -"
This is pretty much the plot of "Close Encounters of the Third Kind", except the mountain isn't phallic and the aliens aren't nympho

This is during the mission cutscene of "Dont Mess With The Man".

[Konstantinos]

^^ that's a glitch, not an easter egg. And it's "Messing with the man" btw.

A ped appears where he isn't supposed to. That's clearly a programming error. Not something the authors put there intentionally.

ITS NOT EASTER EGG but its SECRET

Secret/special vehicles in VC:

BP/EP Admiral
The Admiral in the "Guardian Angels" mission is bulletproof and explosion proof.

BP/FP Sabre Turbo
In "The Driver" if you wait at the Malibu club until the race ends you will see the Sabre crash into the wall with no driver in it. Push it into one of your garage and you have a bulletproof and fireproof Sabre Turbo.
An alternate way to get this is to turn around and go to the north Pay`n`spray to get rid of the cops. Then, wait by the bridge near the pizza place. Take out a sniper rifle and when Hilary drives over the bridge, snipe him in the head and this will cause him to fall out of the car while leaving the door open. Then just take it to a garage and save.

FP Banshee, Cheetah or Infernus
In the mission race missions for Sunshine Autos, there is a Banshee, Cheetah and Infernus that you will have to race. To get this, wait at the last checkpoint with the cars insight, and you will fail the mission. Now, just follow them and do a drive by until the driver gets out, or drives in front of them and pull them out.


Rare vehicles (only one place or in one mission occurrence vehicles):

Silver PCJ600
There is a real silver PCJ600 in the "Autocide" mission. To get it, start the mission and go to the black dot on the radar. You should see it just waiting for you to take it. I advise you to be driving it until the time runs out on the mission so it will not disappear. Then after you fail it, just take it back to your garage.

Gold Stretch
There is a gold Stretch on the "Martha's Mug Shot" mission. Snipe the driver and the driver will open the door and fall out (this car has locked doors). Get in the limo, but don't drive off! Wait for Candy to get in. After she gets in, the Stretch will drive off with you inside. You can't steer. It is on Autopilot or something. Wait for the car to get to its destination. After the cut-scene, get out quickly so the door stays open. Then get back in, and drive to Sunshine Autos garage, or a similar large garage, and put it into one of the garages. Complete the mission. After you save, load the game. The car will have unlocked doors.

Super Angel
The Super Angel is called the Angel when you get on but is better than the regular Angel, its faster with better handling. On the "Alloy Wheels Of Steel" mission for the Big Mitch Baker, hit one of the bikers bike right at the beginning and finish the race.

Hunter
You can get this easily without doing hidden packages by going to Fort Baxter Air Base near Escobar International Airport in Little Havana wearing a police uniform. Go in and they army won't shoot at you. It will be parked somewhere in there only if you have all story missions done. If you don't it will not spawn there.

Special Cuban Hermes and Special Voodoo
In the "Guardian Angels" mission, there is a Cuban Hermes and Voodoo in it that has tires that cannot be hurt from spike strips and the likes of that. After the mission has ended, just take the Cuban Hermes or Voodoo that appeared during the mission. Do not save it because once you save it in a garage, it won't have the special tires anymore. You could also take it during the mission if you don't mind failing the mission.

Romero's Hearse
To get it, steal it during the "Two Bit Hit" mission.

FBI Washington
The FBI Washington is parked in an alley by the pizza place in Downtown.

Deluxo, Sabre Turbo, Sandking and Hotring Racer
Just complete all 4 lists of cars after you purchase Sunshine Autos and it will be in the showroom.

Bloodring Banger
To get it, just survive a minute inside the Bloodring Arena and it'll spawn
right outside in the parking lot.

Mr. Whoopee
To get it, just buy the Cherry Popper's Ice Cream Factory and it will spawn
in there.

Zebra Taxi
Complete the Kaufman Cab mission string and it will spawn inside Kaufman Cabs.

Securicar
To easily get one, snipe the driver of the Securicar in the "Autocide" mission. He should fall out leaving the door open. Just steal it to get it.

Rhino
Just get 90 hidden packages and it will spawn at Fort Baxter Air Base. Make
sure you wear the cop uniform when entering. An alternate way to do this is
get 6 stars and steal it from the Army.

Police Maverick
The Police Maverick spawns at the top of the police department at it's helipad.

VCN Maverick
To get it, just go on the roof of VCN's headquarters in Downtown in Little
Havana.

Love Fist Limo
To get it, steal it in the "Psycho Killer" mission. After that mission it will be spawn before love fists seat.

The head always shows up, and the head isnt moving or stuck. It dosnt show when you get in the interior in-game though. It's supposed to be there and it seems like a object placed there from the cutscene.img.

There is no cutscene.img in VC. Only cuts.img, and that contains animation data, not models. You're right that the guy is placed there intentionally. It's the same biker Mitch is arm wrestling in the beginning. But it's still a glitch, as he is of course supposed to be above ground. His Z coordinate is too low, obviously.

[RidingHigh]

Mitch Baker closely resembles Waigro (Kevin Gage) from the movie Heat.

hey guys, check out this easter eggs video i made a while back.

[silvermanblue]

Back when I got vice for ps2, I was on a mission to get the skimmer. Well after the dildo dodo mission I had one. I got pretty talented with that little plane. But I discovered that if you pulled up in to a stall and reversed the throttle you could fly backwards. I made a tut for it months ago, here is the link tut. You guys should try it!

[glenster]

The undaunted gamer flying his Skimmer backwards--now that's what I like to hear. Cool!

[OTO Design]

Great Topix. I love it

[fuzzyhair1]

I just tried the radio station phone numbers. They don't work anymore.

[tommy vs. claude]

how do you find this stuff? half of that stuff i didnt even know

[glenster]

Part of the recipe in "Love Juice" calls for 5 Fizz Bombs.

Thanks to Colin Attle, a friendly UK reader who's offered me several useful tips, for the tip that "Fizz Bombs" (I thought they might be drinks with seltzer) are little fruit flavored balls of candy with a sour coating in the UK:
