Notes
- Some independent gangs / factions in Vice City are also listed as Streetwannabes according to statistics from the game. This includes soldiers at Fort Baxter Air Base and "gangs" that appear in some missions, such as the Forelli Family members in 'Keep Your Friends Close...', the French agents in 'All Hands On Deck', and the bodyguards of the counterfeiting syndicate in 'Hit The Courier'.
- The Scorpion is used by members if the player attacks of their business.
- The Chainsaw is not used by all members, but is used by a member of the Sharks in 'Leap and Bound'.
- In Vice City Stories (1984), the Sharks are seen in Ocean Beach, Washington Beach, Prawn Island, Vice Point and even have influence in Viceport, but their influence has shrunk into a small street gang. The only territory they have left are Prawn Island and the Vice Point region.
- In Vice City Stories (1984), the Sharks are in a war with the Vice City Bikers and are constantly attacking each others Empire Building. This explains why the Sharks stole Mitch Baker's bike (which Tommy had to Retrieve in 'Hog Tied'). It is implied the Sharks still hold hatred towards the Bikers.
