It gives the player the ability to fly while on foot, allowing for both high-flying exploration and for super-fast "hit and run" assaults on enemies—although slower than most vehicles at full speed, it offers the player far greater agility than any normal vehicle, at the expense of leaving the player fully exposed to gunfire. | ||
The Jetpack is unique, being a vehicle which behaves like a [[Pickups|pickup]] -- it hangs in the air when not in use, and is activated instantly when [[Carl Johnson]] walks into it. It allows for directional control with two omnidirectional nozzle-like jets providing thrust; strangely, the nozzles do not seem to burn or otherwise harm CJ, despite being inches from his shoulders. When using the Jetpack, the player can only fire one handed weapons, although, somewhat incongruously, these can be dual-wielded. | The Jetpack is unique, being a vehicle which behaves like a [[Pickups|pickup]] -- it hangs in the air when not in use, and is activated instantly when [[Carl Johnson]] walks into it.

* A glitch can be done with the Jetpack by (on the PS2 version) holding both Strafe buttons at the same time; the player will hover in the air until the buttons are released. Also, the left nozzle will turn clockwise, the right nozzle counterclockwise. | * A glitch can be done with the Jetpack by (on the PS2 version) holding both Strafe buttons at the same time; the player will hover in the air until the buttons are released.
