Skimmer tyme

Some of you hardcore Vice Forums members might have read something about moi flying the skimmer upside down around vice city and under bridges. This is no lie, nor does it involve cheats. It's just somehting I've been doing since the game (From now on I refuse to call Grand Theft Auto 3 "GTA3").

 

 

     Here's what you do: take the skimmer and head noth to the beach. Turn south so that you are heading down the beach from the northernestededest part of the island. Let the skimmer fall, then glide back up to decent height. Then let it fall again, only this time- push up a little bit more so that it dives quite more. When the plane is inches above the ground, screaming by the sand at insane speed, Pull up hard. Before the plane gets to a 90 degree angle, pull left and up. The plane will do a cockeyed barrell roll and stop on it's roof. If you want it to stop of the roof completely, let the plane dive upside down, then push up and the force of the plane regaining heigh on it's top will keep it upside down. Now it's up to you to figure out to turn. There is one thing I will tell you tho, and that is to tap the analog stick upwards constantly. Don't hold it and don't let go too long. Just tap it.

 

Please post with how it went or if my instructions are a little odd.

Yes, but it wouldn't prove anything unless it was streaming video. ANybody can get upside down but staying that way under extreme and awesome circumstances is different

 

@ widowmaker, there's one about the ghost town in cheats/tricks...

You may have problems driving so you shouldn't fly the skimmer until you've reached the 3rd grader VC level.  Good luck and remember, you have to turn to avoid those walls!

You've lost me there, widow.  But I have noticed you appear to have real friends in this forum by reading previous topics.  Oh, how I envy thee, for you see, I have no friends in this forum, only in real life.  A shame, I know but one I have to live with.  By the way, you must have very cool parents, mine wouldn't let me play M rated games when I was your age, then again, we didn't have M rated games then either, so twice the kudos!  Point said, you are right, "it is just a game", so stop whining like a pud whenever someone posts something you don't like.  We didn't join this forum to read the attempted wit of some kid.  Zing!
