I said I might make a trophy guide for this game and I got some spare time so here you are:

Total Trophies – 51

Bronze – 42

Silver – 5

Gold – 3

Platinum – 1

Bronze Trophies

OFF THE BOAT

complete the first mission

Very simple just complete the first mission – make sure you start a new game.

ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY

Score 180 with three darts

ring up a friend and bring them to Steinway Beer Gardens on the first island. to get 180 you need to hit the small red section in the 20 segment three times.

POOL SHARK

Beat a friend at pool

 fairly easy if your not good at pool just keep practising – Little Jacob is not very good at pool.

KING OF QU3BD

Beat the hard score in QUB3ED

This is not hard but it might take you a couple of goes just take your time and think through every move – don't rush.The machines are located in the bar where the pool table is ans in the triangle club in Bohan.

FINISH HIM

Complete 10 melee counters in 4 minutes

 Firstly if you don't know how to counter press x to dodge and circle to counter – I'll put a link in to show you the best place to do it –

GENETICALLY SUPERIOR

Win 20 singleplayer street races

 races are unlocked after the mission No. 1. On your mobile go to Brucie -> Race and select. A good car would be the Sultan RS located behind the garage of the big abandoned mansion on the north of the third island. If your trying to get a race but Brucie won't give you any just go to another island and try again.

WHEELIE RIDER

Complete a 500 foot wheelie on a motorbike

 I recommend the PCJ 600 just tilt up the right analog stick to do a wheelie. The bridges are the best places to do it.

GOBBLE GOBBLE

Get a turkey in 10-pin bowling

 The trick for this is to go in the left most lane, take two steps to the left and bowl it slowly you don't wan't to go full speed.

DRIVING MR. BELLIC

Unlock the Special ability of Roman's taxi

 Once you get to about 60% friendship with Roman he'l offer you free cap rides. Just keep taking him for meals or for pool. A trick is if he rings and wants to go do something just say yes then ring back and cancel plans, your friendship won't go down.

ROLLED OVER

Get 5 car rolls in a row from one crash

 harder than it sounds, go to the airport and go on the runway and there will be these big yellow signs on the grass you want to try to hit these with two of your wheels. This trophy is incredibly glitchy so just keep trying.

WALK FREE

Lose a 4 star Wanted rating

 Easier than it sounds go to the airport and go where the helicopters are with your car then drive all the way to the other end of the runway. You should get out of the wanted zone and lose your rating. If it doesn't work at first keep trying.

COURIER SERVICE

Complete all ten package delivery jobs

 These are Little Jacobs side missions. On your phone go to Little Jacob -> Job. Most involve just getting to the buyer in time but some involve firefights so be prepared. Body Armour is advised.

RETAIL THERAPY

unlock the special ability of buying guns from Little Jacob

When you get to around 60% friendship with Little Jacob, he'll offer to sell you guns at a discount price. Keep taking out for activities to get his friendship up. His favourite place is Cluckin Bell. A trick is when he rings looking to do something and you don't want to just say yes then ring back and cancel plans your friendship wont go down.

CHAIN REACTION

explode 10 vehicles in 10 seconds

Go to Star Junction a nick a bus. Go to the Algoncquin Bridge and park longways so that no cars can get through. When you think 10 or more cars have piled up throw in a couple of grenades and watch the sparks fly.

LOWEST POINT

Complete the mission “Roman's Sorrow”

This is the mission when you get your safehouse in Bohan. Very simple, no shooting just driving.

ORDER FULFILLED

complete all 10 Exotic Export orders

These are Brucie's side missions. Check your e-mails to start them. Nothing hard just a bit time consuming.

MANHUNT

Complete the most wanted side mission

For this you need to steal a cop car. Dial 911 and ask for police, when they arrive get in the side where the cop gets out and lose your wanted level. Then access the police computer. There are 10 in each area. (Broker, Dukes and Bohan count as 1) So 30 altogether. Top up on Body Armour and ammo before starting each one. A bit time consuming but not very hard

CLEANED THE MEAN STREETS

Catch 20 criminals through the police computer

You need a cop car for this. Use the technique shown in MANHUNT  to get it. Again, access the police computer to find the criminals. The easiest is the criminal on foot, you can just run them over. These shouldn't take you too long.

FED THE FISH

Complete the mission “Uncle Vlad”

This is not very hard mission. Roman will call you concerned that Malorie is sleeping with Vlad. Go to Comrades bar to confront Vlad. After the cutscene kill the two goons in the bar and chase Vlad. He will stop at a pier. Pump his skull full of lead to get the trophy.

IT'LL COST YA

Make a Taxi trip from one island to another without skipping.

This is very easy, just get in a cap, select a destination on another island and sit back and enjoy.

SIGHTSEER

Take all Variations of the Helicopter Tours of Liberty City

Go to the helicopter pad in south Algonquin, that's where you get the tours from. Take a tour from a different helicopter each time (Parked in a different spot). If it doesn't work just keep taking them you'll eventually get it.

WARM COFFEE

Get Invited into your girlfriend's house

You don't actually have to be invited, so at the end of every date just ask to come in and when she accepts you'll get the trophy.

THAT'S HOW WE ROLL

Unlock the Special ability of Brucie's Helicopter Rides.

Get to around 60% friendship with Brucie and he'll offer you helicopter rides whenever you wan't. Just keep taking him oit for activities. A tip is when he rings looking to do something and you don't want to just say yes and call back a cancel plans. Your friendship won't go down.

HALF MILLION

Amass a fortune of $500,000

This isn't too hard, unlock Little Jacobs discount guns and Roman's free taxi as soon as you can. There are two missions in the game that give rewards of $250,000 so it shouldn't be too hard.

IMPOSSIBLE TRINITY

Complete the mission “Museum Piece”

This is a Ray Bocino mission. Fight your wat out of the museum and get away from the chasing cars to get the trophy.

FULL EXPLORATION

Very easy just keep playing through the missions. This will unlock after you finish “three Leaf Clover”

YOU GOT THE MESSAGE

Deliver all 30 cars through text message.

You get these side missions through text message. They tell you what car it is and what district it's in but you still need to do a fair bit of searching for it. When you collect a car deliver it to the garage in Bohan. Overall bit very hard.

ASSASSIN'S GREED

These missions are given by pay phone by a mysterious man called the fixer. The pay phone is located near the gun shop in Alderney. It is defined on the map by a crosshair.

UNDER THE RADAR

 get a helicopter and fly under a bridge. as soon as it says you have only however many left to get press start and on your map there should be trophies. These are the bridges you have to fly under. They won't be there for long so put your waypoint on and head to the next one. Repeat this process until you get it.

DIAL B FOR BOMB
