Grand Theft Auto: Director's Cut

Tip 1
----- 
Before accepting a mission, root around for weapons
in hidden areas. 

Tip 2
----- 
Cops are worth lots of points, so don't be afraid 
to face them head-on if you have the firepower. 

Tip 3 
-----
Stick to the bigger roads when you're trying to 
quickly cross long distances; they don't twist as 
much, and they give you more room to maneuver.
