The collection of hidden packages in the series is considered a side quest of sorts wherein the player is given the opportunity to amass rewards by collecting as many of these pickups as possible. However, hidden packages are typically placed in concealed locations or hard-to-reach places, making the task of collecting them fairly difficult.


GTA III features 100 white bundles with possibly [[SPANK]] in them, around [[Liberty City in GTA III Era|Liberty City]] which the players collect. In GTA Vice City, the hidden packages are again a number of 100 and appear in green "tiki statues" all over [[Vice City in GTA III Era|Vice City]]. In GTA Advance, the packages are again in form of white bundles and a number of 100 just like it's predecessors. GTA: Liberty City Stories lets the hidden packages return for the fourth time showing 100 white hands with the [[wp:Sign_of_the_horns|sign of the horns]] gesture. For each hidden package collected, the player receives money. Hidden packages are also required for [[100%]] completion.
In each game they appear in, there tends to be a total of 100 hidden packages scattered. The packages are also cosmetically different in each appearance:


It is wise to collect all availble hidden packages at the begining of the game, as it gives you weapons that could be useful for some of the harder missions, plus you wont have to spend money after getting busted or wasted.

Hidden Packages are collectibles in Grand Theft Auto III, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, Grand Theft Auto Advance and Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories.

Description

The collection of hidden packages in the series is considered a side quest of sorts wherein the player is given the opportunity to amass rewards by collecting as many of these pickups as possible. However, hidden packages are typically placed in concealed locations or hard-to-reach places, making the task of collecting them fairly difficult.

In each game they appear in, there tends to be a total of 100 hidden packages scattered. The packages are also cosmetically different in each appearance:

Rewards

In GTA III, collecting each hidden packages awards $1,000, while following games only award $100. Special rewards are also offered for finding each tenth hidden package, and a large monetary reward is provided upon collecting all packages.

Due to the benefits of collecting hidden packages, it is considered advantageous to the player as they will have immediate access to crucial weapons and pickups, as opposed to having to go to individual pickup locations or spend money at a weapons shop to obtain weaponry and equipment.
