== Effects == | |||
As a result of being Wasted in the [[GTA III Era]] (except for [[Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories|GTA Vice City Stories]] where you can bribe the hospital staff to keep the [[weapons]] you'd normally lose. Additionally, in the [[iOS]] and [[Android]] versions of GTA III, you will never lose your weapons after being wasted or busted, only $1,000 and armor will be removed) the player will lose all of their weapons and $100 ($1,000 in [[Grand Theft Auto III|GTA III]]), the same as for being [[Busted]]. In [[Grand Theft Auto IV|GTA IV]] onwards, however, the player is fined 10% of their money ($10,000 max) and gets to keep their weapons, and in [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas|GTA San Andreas]], if you date [[Katie Zhan]] (a nurse) you are able to keep your weapons upon death. In all games, any mission the player was on will be failed. | |||
