Line 1: Line 1:
The '''Most Wanted''' Missions are [[Missions in GTA IV#Side Missions|side missions]] in [[Grand Theft Auto IV]] that replace the [[Vigilante]] missions from the [[GTA III Era]]. When stationary in a law enforcement vehicle such as a [[Police Cruiser]], the player can access the Police Computer and see the top ten criminals wanted by the [[LCPD in GTA IV Era|LCPD]] for the current [[Liberty City in GTA IV Era|borough]]. The player is then able to select any of the ten listed criminals to pursue, the target will show up on the [[HUD|map]] and the player must drive there and eliminate the target(s). There is no time limit, and the missions can be re-attempted if failed.
The '''Most Wanted''' Missions are [[Missions in GTA IV#Side Missions|side missions]] in [[Grand Theft Auto IV]] in the same vein as the [[Vigilante]] missions from the [[GTA III Era]]. When stationary in a law enforcement vehicle such as a [[Police Cruiser]], the player can access the Police Computer and see the top ten criminals wanted by the [[LCPD in GTA IV Era|LCPD]] for the current [[Liberty City in GTA IV Era|borough]]. The player is then able to select any of the ten listed criminals to pursue, the target will show up on the [[HUD|map]] and the player must drive there and eliminate the target(s). There is no time limit, and the missions can be re-attempted if failed.


There are 30 most-wanted criminals in the game - ten in [[Algonquin]], ten in [[Alderney]], and ten spread across [[Broker]], [[Dukes]] and [[Bohan]] (which are counted as one borough by the police computer). If the player chooses a target that is too close to their current position, the mission won't start and the police computer will say "The profile is being updated". Once a mission is completed, the name is marked in red in the most wanted list - if the player tries to undertake the mission again, the police computer reports that the target is deceased, and the mission cannot be started.

Many of the targets have friends which also need to be eliminated to successfully complete the mission. Like many other [[Missions in GTA IV|missions]] in the game, many of the targets stay in a static location and fight [[Niko Bellic]], but in several cases, they try to escape (depending on which mission is being played). Completing all of the most wanted missions is required for [[100% Completion in GTA IV|100% completion of the game]]. Doing it also grant an [[Achievements in GTA IV|achivement]] ''Manhunt''.

|He is in North Holland, in the block across the northwest corner of Middle Park. As soon as you get close, he will make a run for it in a Banshee. At first he is rather slow. Try to get close and shoot him out of the driver's seat. If that does not work he will speed up. Pump bullets into his car until it breaks down so he goes on foot or it explodes.

On the first floor you will notice that the red target icon changes from an up arrow to a circle. That means you are on the correct floor. Ignore everyone else and shoot Jimmy in his room as he lays there passed out.

You will find them all over the different levels of this building and they move around. Watch the radar closely to get their positions to find them all. Do not worry if cops show up, as you can also kill them. Your wanted level goes away as soon as you kill the last of the gang.

|He and two of his friends are close to Middle Park. As you approach the blip, they will run to the east in that alley then go north to an SUV parked there. If they make it, they drive off and you have to chase them down. Two easy ways to kill them are to drive into that alley and run them over; or drive to the alley in the north and as they go for the SUV and kill them. This also has the advantage that you will block the SUV in case they do make it there.

|He hides with five of his friends in a parking garage in Purgatory. You can get up there over a ramp to the south. When you get the red targets, stop and get out of the car. Take out your sniper rifle and shoot the people from this distance. Stand east of the barrier. By doing this, they will most likely not have a chance to hit you. You can also use the RPG on one of the cars to decimate them, but sniper is cheaper and almost as effective.

|He is in a building just south of the three X buildings in East Holland. The entrance is on the north side, to the very east of the building. When you stand in front of it, the entrance is to the left and to the right is a blue banner on the buildings reading "Real Loose Clothing". The first one is just on the first landing. The second one is on the other side where the steps go up again. Exactly one level above that one is the third person. The next level is clear. Another person stands at the landing of the next level. Then, go up to the door leading to the roof. Shoot the door and immediately to the right behind it is the next person. The last person hides on the roof, to the right around the corner and behind a small wall when you get out there.
