I just picked up GTA 3 and Vice City for Xbox and since I've played on the PS2, I know that the armour, health and weapons cheats are gonna come in handy later on.

Problem is.....I can't seem to get the damned codes to enter. I got them from the Gamefaqs site. The PS2 codes that I had were easy to activate. These Xbox codes don't seem to want to take.

For example, the armour code that I have is:

black, black, left trigger, white, left, down, right, up, left, down, right, up.

I enter this and nothing happens. Anyone had any problems or success with the Xbox version?

well I am not sure since even though I own them, I haven't really used the cheats on the xbox yet,, but when i get home tonight I will try it and get back to you on how I find them.


and we can go from there.

Not really, somtimes I will have to enter a code a few times but that usually the controllers fault .

I had a lot of difficulty getting the codes to take when I first got the GTA doublepack as well.You'll get the hang of it eventually.It just takes a bit of practice.

Try the codes with both the D pad and the joystick some times they will work with one but not the other

I realized that it's the fault of the stupid "S" controller. I picked up a 3rd party controller tonight. It's shaped like the "S" controller but has the button config of the old big controller. The black and white buttons are raised up and are easy to activate. It's a bit touch and go with the floating style of D-pads that all Xbox controllers have. Hard to nail the precise direction while being quick. A PS2 D-pad would be better.

I've managed to get them to enter a few times.....but it sure is difficult. Yeah...I guess it takes practice...or get really good at playing the game without codes.
