From the dark and seedy streets of Liberty City's underworld to the glamorous hedonism of Vice City in the 1980s. Two towns, each brimming with limitless delights and degradation, where anything can happen. Two criminal sagas of greed and desperation that will take you into the world of Grand Theft Auto. The Grand Theft Auto Double Pack brings two great games to the Xbox (for the price of one!): Grand Theft Auto 3 and Grand Theft Auto: Vice City.

Glitches

Drive blown-up cars
It works for both games. First find a car with somebody driving
it. Stand next to the driver's side (it doesn't work on the passenger's side) and enter the "destroy all cars" code. When you reach the Y button in the process of entering the code, your character will pull the driver out of the vehicle. Finish the code before you're done pulling the driver out and the car will explode but you will get inside anyway. Hurry up and enter the health code because the car will be in flames. Now you're driving a blown-up car. You can take it to a pay-and-spray and the car will be repaired but will keep its charred look.

GTA 3 - Vigilante Mission Glitch
When chasing down a car in a vigilante mission, pause the game when they are in your sight. The criminal will get out of the car, making them an easy target to run over.

GTA3 - 8Ball's Floating Head
Begin by going to Salvadore in Portland, and start the Bomb Da Base mission. Once you arrive at 8Ball's place and collect the money for him, take the Sniper Rifle from him. While still having him standing in his doorway, zoom in on his head and shoot it. The next time you start the mission, 8Ball's body will be invisible, and his head will be floating and talking to you.

Taxi Driver (GTA3)
To do this cheat simply find a taxi or cabbie and steal it (probably works with the secret red cabbie). Drive up to one of your favorite cars with it. When you are there, press and hold down the X button. Get out of the taxi while you are holding X, with Y. Keep holding X and get inside your favorite car. When your character is in the car waiting, unleash the X button. Make sure you do not unleash the X button while you character is opening the car. Now the game thinks you are inside a taxi, good job.

Easter Eggs

Beach Ball Game
At a pool on Starfish Island you can find a beach ball. If you run into it, it will bounce up into the air. Stand in the ball's shadow as it falls and it will bounce on your head. A number will show up above your head for each time you've bounced it. When you look at your stats in the start menu it will show: " Highest score on Beach ball mini-game ".

Hidden Easter Egg (Vice City)
In the Downtown section of Vice City's west island, the VCN building can be entered from ground level. From the roof of this building, if you jump from the far eastern corner of the helipad into the window of the adjacent skyscraper via a substanceless wall texture. Inside this hollow you will find an actual Easter Egg, with the words 'Happy Easter' written on it.

Hidden Programmer's Message (GTA3)
Go to Staunton Island. Head for Bedford Point, and bring a tall vehicle with you, like an Ambulance. Go to the parking lot that is behind some buildings in the projects (it was used in the "Kingdom Come" mission you do for King Courtney). Park your Ambulance next to the wall where the Kuruma is parked. Climb up on top of the ambulance and jump over the wall. On the other side, you'll see a sign that says "You weren't supposed to be able to get here you know". When you're ready to exit this area, use the ramp that the programmers (very thoughtfully) put there for you.
