A cop never knows what to expect on the streets of L.A., but then again, Nicholas Kang Wilson is as tough as cops come. The good news is, Nick's status as an agent of the Elite Operations Division (E.O.D.) allows him to use any means necessary to take down perps-- be it smashing their faces in, shooting them in the back, driving over them, or doing all three. The bad news is, he won't just be busting small-time punks and other common trash; he'll have to fight with triads, trade gunfire with mobs, do battle with foreign commandos, and even kung fu supernatural demons to death.

The way we see it, Nick is gonna need all the help that this guide provides. We're talking about strategies for every mission, tips for reaching the different endings, details on all the special moves and unlockable upgrades, plus lots more. So don't wait until Nick becomes another chalk outline on the pavement - check this guide out now.

If you want to earn good cop points quickly, go to a street called Rose Ave. in Venice. All of the people walking on that street are usually either carrying drugs or guns. Simply walk up to anyone on that street and frisk them and you'll bust them. (Rose Ave. is the street by the beach and in directly on the "N" in the title Venice on the map; you can look up the map from the start menu).

You can exploit a game bug to effectively give Kang unlimited ammo with a gun of your choice. This trick will only work in the free-roam missions, as other missions won't allow you to holster your gun as the trick requires.

Pick up the gun for which you'd like unlimited ammo, and then pick up a secong gun to move the first gun to Nick's right hand. When your right-handed gun is low on ammunition, holster your guns and press R1 + R2 to fire a shot into the air (just once). Unholster your weapons and the right-handed weapon should have a full clip of ammo. Repeat the trick as necessary.

Use LEFT and RIGHT on the pad to alter the height of the ride on the Dogg Patrol mission.

When using the hydraulics, lift the front of the car (using LEFT and RIGHT) and tap A, A to make the car hop.
