Collectibles

Revision as of 22:33, 19 December 2012 by ProAtGTA (talk | contribs) (→‎Types)

Collectibles are items in Grand Theft Auto games that are required to be collected in order to achieve 100% completion of the game, but are not components of the main storyline. Rewards are offered for collecting certain numbers of each collectible, and each individual collectible gives a small cash reward once picked up.

Types

Appearances Brief description
Hidden Packages/Packages GTA III
GTA Vice City
GTA Advance
GTA Liberty City Stories
Special rewards are offered for finding every ten packages, and for finding all 100.
Tags GTA San Andreas Tags are only found in the city of Los Santos. Each Tag must be sprayed over completely in order to be considered collected. After spraying over a tag, the new tag will read, "Grove Street 4 Life". Spraying over all Tags will reward the player.
Snapshots GTA San Andreas Snapshots are only found in San Fierro. They must be photographed using the Camera. These scenes are marked by a small rotating camera icon, which is only seen when viewed through the camera, otherwise they can only be noticed at night (the player will see a strong pinkish light with no apparent source). The glowing camera icons in the night may be related to the people on the radio station WCTR, claiming that they saw lights in the sky. This icon must be in the camera's viewfinder for the snapshot to be counted as collected. Rewards are given to the player for taking all Snapshots.
Horseshoes GTA San Andreas Horseshoes are only found in Las Venturas. They are small collectibles and act as a normal pickup. The player gets rewarded for collecting them all.
Oysters GTA San Andreas Oysters are always underwater, and most require the player to dive in order to collect them. Unlike the other collectibles in GTA San Andreas, these can be found dotted across the state. Acquisitions of all Oysters will reward the player.
Red Balloons GTA Vice City Stories Red Balloons are similar to the Hidden Packages from the other GTA games, but balloons require to be burst through gunshots, melee attacks, or explosions to be collected. There are 99 red balloons and each tenth gives the player a reward. This is a reference to the 1984 hit song "99 Luftballons" by Nena.
