3. Click R1, R1, O, R2, Up, Down, Up, Down, Up, Down. This ditches all your wanted stars.
4. Hit R1, R2, L1, R2, Left, Down, Right, Up, Left, Down, Down, Left to give yourself the tier 2 weapons. These are better than the tier 1 weapons, and in some cases, more useful than tier 3 weapons.

Other Useful Cheats

7. Press O, X, L1, L1, R2, X, X, O, Triangle to get any girls in the local area to follow you. They’ll attack whoever you attack, and having a horde of groupies can be useful in other ways!
8. Use Right, L1, O, L2, Left, X, R1, L1, L1, X to give your groupies weapons. This is handy if you’re low on weapons and don’t feel like paying for them.
9. Type Triangle, Up, Right, Down, Square, R2, R1 to slow down time. This is the same effect as the pills, only it doesn’t wear off.

Tips & Warnings

• To get rid of most cheats, just use the cheat again. If the cheat cannot be turned off, you have to load a previous game where the cheat was not activated. This does not work on cheats that give you stuff, such as health, armor, weapons and cars.
