Post-Game Activities & Completion Checklist

So you've helped Huang Lee navigate the treacherous underworld of Liberty City and brought the truth to light. Congratulations on completing the main story of Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars! But the streets of Liberty City still hold countless opportunities for chaos, profit, and 100% completion. This detailed guide will walk you through everything you need to do to truly master the game.

100% Completion Checklist

Achieving 100% completion in Chinatown Wars requires dedication and a keen eye for detail. Use this checklist to track your progress:

  • All Story Missions Completed: This is a given, but ensure every main story mission is marked as complete in your stats.
  • All Side Missions Completed: This includes all missions from characters like Chan, Hsin, and the various random encounters.
  • All Drug Deals Completed: Engage in the drug trade across all districts. You need to buy and sell drugs from all dealers at least once to fully explore the market.
  • All Rampages Completed: There are 30 Rampages scattered throughout Liberty City. These timed challenges require you to eliminate a certain number of enemies with specific weapons. Check your PDA map for their locations (skull icons).
  • All Stunt Jumps Completed: Master all 30 unique Stunt Jumps. Look for ramps, ledges, and other opportunities to launch your vehicle for maximum airtime. A successful jump will trigger a slow-motion camera effect.
  • All Security Cameras Destroyed: There are 100 Security Cameras to find and destroy. These are small, red cameras mounted on poles or buildings. Use firearms to take them out. They emit a distinctive whirring sound when you're nearby.
  • All Hidden Packages Collected: Seek out all 100 Hidden Packages (Lion Statues). These collectibles are often tucked away in alleys, on rooftops, or behind buildings. They glow faintly, making them easier to spot at night.
  • All Gang Wars Won: Participate in and win all Gang Wars to assert your dominance over rival gangs. These are initiated by destroying rival gang vehicles or attacking their members in specific territories.
  • All Races Won: Conquer all street races available in the game. These are marked on your map with checkered flag icons.
  • All Ammu-Nation Challenges Completed: Head to Ammu-Nation and complete all weapon challenges to unlock discounts and improve your weapon proficiency.
  • All "Odd Jobs" Completed: This includes various mini-games and activities such as Tattoo Parlor jobs, Hot Dog Stand mini-games, and the "Noodle Run" delivery missions.
  • Earn a Gold Medal in all "Turf Wars": These strategic territory control missions require you to capture and defend areas against rival gangs. Aim for gold in each one.
  • Purchase all Safehouses: Invest your hard-earned cash in all available safehouses across Liberty City.
  • Max out all Weapon Skills: Continuously use each weapon type to increase your skill level. Higher skill means better accuracy and faster reloading.

Post-Game Activities & Money Making

Drug Dealing Mastery

The drug trade remains your most lucrative post-game activity. To maximize your profits:

  1. Monitor the Market: Regularly check your PDA's "Drug Info" section. This displays the current prices for different drugs across all districts.
  2. Identify Hot Spots: Look for districts where a particular drug is cheap to buy and expensive to sell. For example, buying "Weed" in Bohan when it's low and selling it in Algonquin when it's high can yield significant returns.
  3. Utilize the "Hot Deal" Alerts: Pay attention to the occasional "Hot Deal" alerts on your PDA. These indicate a temporary, extremely profitable price for a specific drug. Drop everything and capitalize on these opportunities!
  4. Upgrade Your Stash: Purchase larger stash capacities from your safehouses to carry more drugs and increase your potential profit per run.
  5. Evade the Cops: Be prepared for police attention. Having a fast, durable vehicle like the Comet or Banshee is crucial for quick getaways. Invest in bulletproof tires if possible.

Rampage Replays & High Scores

Revisit completed Rampages to improve your scores and hone your combat skills. Aim for the highest possible score on each one. This is a great way to practice different weapon combinations and develop efficient strategies for crowd control.

Stunt Jump Perfection

While you only need to complete each Stunt Jump once for 100%, perfecting your technique can be a fun challenge. Experiment with different vehicles and approach angles to achieve the most spectacular jumps.

Vehicle Collection

Liberty City is home to a diverse array of vehicles. Try to collect and store your favorite cars and motorcycles in your safehouse garages. Keep an eye out for rare or unique vehicles that appear only in specific missions or locations.

Ammu-Nation Challenges & Weapon Proficiency

Continue to frequent Ammu-Nation and complete any remaining weapon challenges. Maxing out your proficiency with every weapon type will make you an unstoppable force in any situation. The discounts you earn are also a welcome bonus for your post-game spending.

"Odd Jobs" for Extra Cash & Fun

  • Hot Dog Stand: Master the art of hot dog preparation for quick, consistent income.
  • Tattoo Parlor: Test your artistic skills and earn money by giving customers tattoos.
  • Noodle Run: These delivery missions can be a fun way to explore the city and earn some extra cash, especially if you're looking for a break from drug dealing.

Exploring Liberty City

With the main story behind you, take the time to simply explore the vast and detailed world of Liberty City. Discover hidden alleys, enjoy the scenery, or simply cruise around causing mayhem. You might even stumble upon some secrets you missed during your initial playthrough.
