Most Wanted
These side missions are required to get 100% in GTA4. By completing all of these missions, you will get another 2.50% closer to finishing the game.
You can start doing these after the "Crime and Punishment" mission.
Similar to the Vigilante missions you need a police car. Once you've got one and have no wanted level, park and press the button for the police computer (L1 for PS3 or LB for XB360). Select "View Most Wanted". Depending on which island you are currently on, you get a list of the Ten Most Wanted criminals. Select one of them to see some info about them. Hit the select button again and it will put a yellow blip on the map where the criminal is located.
Once you started a mission (the blip is yellow) you have to stay in the car until you get close to your target. If you leave the car for longer than 30 seconds (or fail the mission) you have to drive away from it and wait a while before you can attempt it again. Once you're close enough to the target, the yellow single blip becomes a red blip (or blips). Once the blip(s) is(are) red, you are free to exit the car and do whatever you wish. If you move too far from the target or get left behind too far, a "The target escaped" message will appear at the bottom of your screen and you'll have to do it again. This does not count as a failed mission.
Just in case, you should have a lot of ammo, full health and armor when you go after one of these baddies. All in all, these aren't really very difficult, but some are tricky such as moving targets that split up, so getting the jump on the criminals is the surest way to victory. If you get close to a group of criminals and nobody tries to drive away, they won't. You have all the time you need to pick them off. Check the descriptions below for a heads up if you don't want to have to repeat any.
It's worth noting that during these or the "Current Crimes" missions, you probably won't get wanted levels from shooting the criminals, but you can still get them from harming bystanders. If you get some Wanted Level Stars and the cops arrive, they will shoot at whomever is closest to them. If it's you, they shoot at you. If they are closer to the criminals, they will attack them. Try to lure the criminals into a crossfire with you and the police if the police show up. Once the criminals are dead, your wanted level will disappear, so stop shooting at the cops!
You get no monetary reward for doing these missions, so be sure to walk all over the criminals' bodies for any cash. At least on the PS3, the cash doesn't always glow green, so walk around the bodies just in case.
Bohan Dukes Broker
Maxwell Caughlin
Crime: Gang Related Violence
He is just one block north of the safe house in Bohan. As you get to him, he will pull out and drive away. Shoot him and his buddy. Aim for the driver and the tires. If you can't get to aim precise, just fill the car with bullets until they bail out.
Scott Guzowski
Crime: Gang Related Violence
He and his gang are hiding out in Steinway, in the large park to the west. Go to the road east of them, then hop over the wall. There is a small wall down here that gives you cover and you can take all four of them out from up here.
Antoinio Rivette
Crime: Racketeering
He and his buddies hide in the train station at south slopes. Go there and go up the stairs. He has three helpers with him so be careful as this is all very crowded here.
Rodrigo Stavnes
Crime: Racketeering
He and three friends are on foot. Look where the blip is and go to the road west of it (the GPS will lead you to the one east of it). As you get close they will run to the street here. Run them over or shoot them. They will go north and at the end of the street split up. So if you can kill them before that, you save time.
Fernando Tisdel
Crime: Human Trafficking
Hides out in hove beach. He will come out in a car with three of his friends to the south of the blip. They will then make a run for it, keep up with them. Try to kill the driver as that will get them to stop and get out, or simply riddle the car with bullets.
Tyler Pickrel
Crime: Human Trafficking
He is in Meadows Park, to the north east of the big circle in the park. He will make a run for it when you are close, but on foot. Run him over or gun him down.
Preston Pecinovsky
Crime: Credit Card Fraud
He hides out in the northeast of Bohan. Approach him from the east. You can now gun them all down or blow up their two cars with a rocket launcher. The rockets are expensive and I would advise to only use that if they try to get away. Mostly you can just snipe them, even out if the car as they move. If they make off, grab a ride and follow, to kill every last one of them.
Alonso Goralski
Crime: Burglary
There are two guys here at the Airport. When you approach one is in a car, the other stays near the gatehouse where the blip was. Hunt down the guy in the car first, then return for the other guy. Don't get too close to that second guy, he has a shotgun on him.
Bert Reker
Crime: Drug Trafficking
These guys hide out in a junkyard in bobao. Approach from the southeast. s you go down the road, stop and pull out your sniper. From up here you can kill a fair number of them already. With their ranks thinned, go down and take out the rest.
Freddy Paparo
Crime: Grand Theft Auto
Freddy is north in a parking lot in Steinway close to the water front, and to the west of the bridge going north. As you pull closer, you see Freddy and three friends pull out in a car. Now fill the car with bullets until it explodes or they bail out. Kill them all.
Algonquin
Shon Kikuchi
Crime: Gang Related Violence
He is in north holland, in the block across the north west 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, so try to get close and shoot him out of the driver seat. If that won’t work he will speed up. Just pump bullets into his car until it breaks down so he goes on foot or blows up.
Jimmy Kand
Crime: Gang Related Violence
He is in the northern area of the X building in Northwood, the same Dwayne is in. Enter it through the south and use the stairs, just to the right and then around the corner to your left. On the first floor you will see the red target icon changes from up to filled and that means you are on the correct floor. Ignore everyone then shoot Jimmy in his room, as he lays there passed out.
Simon Nashly
Crime: Racketeering
He and his gang hide out in Fishmarket South in the building with the sign Pier 45 on it that looks like a # sign on the map. You will find them all over the different levels of this building and they move around. So keep a close eye on the radar showing you the positions to get them all. Don't worry if cops show up (you can also kill them) as the wanted level goes away as soon as you kill the last of the gang.
Tommy Francovic
Crime: Racketeering
As you approach him in Castle Garden City, he will take off on a bike driving north form his starting position. Ram him with your car and then drive over him or shoot him. Should not be too hard a thing to do, I managed with a tire completely blown off the police car.
Barry Lamora
Crime: Human Trafficking
He is standing with two buddies on the northeast corner of the apartment building on the south area on Colony island. It is pretty straight forward, kill his friends, while he runs away, then chase him down. I have not seen him going for a vehicle, but could kill him before he might have gone to one. He went south towards the old hospital.
Lino Friddell
Crime: Hit and Run
He and two of his buddies are close to middle park. As you approach the blip, they 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 is by simply driving into that alley and run them over. Or drive to the alley in the north and as they come for the SUV kill them. That also has the advantage that you block the SUV in case they do make it there.
Juan Haimo
Crime: Burglary
Near the north end of Star Junction. When you get close, three bikes take off from there to the east. Your best bet is to stand right there where they come out and gun them down before they can get anywhere. Kill any that you can and if one makes off, chase him, bump the bike to make him fall off then drive over him or shoot him.
Darren Covey
Crime: Arms Dealing
Hides with five of his cronies in a parking garage in Purgatory. you get up there over a ramp to the south. When you get the red targets, stop and get out of the car. Now take out your sniper rifle and shoot the guys form this distance (stand east of the barrier). They most likely have not one chance to hit you this way. You could also use the RPG on one of the cars to decimate them, but sniper is cheaper and pretty much as effective.
Leo Brodell
Crime: Drug Trafficking
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 saying "Real Loose Clothing". The first one is just on the first landing, the second on the other side where the steps go up again. Exactly one level above that one is the third guy. The next level is clear. Another guy stands at the landing of the next level. Now go up to the door leading to the roof. Shoot the door and immediately to the right behind it is the next guy. The last one hides on the roof, to the right around the corner and behind a small wall when you get out there.
Christov Mahonvic
Crime: Grand Theft Auto
He is in a building in Fishmarket south, just north of the broker bridge near the water front, with a lot of Garbage trucks parked to the south. One of the story missions brings you to this exact building as well. They all hide in there. Your best chance is to snipe them from the south, just when you get past the fence. Anything that is not reachable that way (there is one guy in the upper level just to the left when you enter) needs a close up visit, the rest should fall easy prey to the sniper without you getting one hit.
Alderney
Marty Boldenow
Crime: Gang Related Violence
He is hiding out in Acter, north of the gun shop. Approach it from the south. He has a whole crew there helping him out. Kill them all and this one is done. They are equipped with Assault rifles, and at least one person has an RPG, so be very careful.
Noel Katsuda
Crime: Gang Related Violence
He and his gang is in southwest Tudor. Approach it from the south and west. Now throw a grenade over the wall then go in and clean up the rest. His gang has SMG's so use the cover here.
Rodney McEniry
Crime: Racketeering
He and his crew are holed up in a back alley in Berchem. Approach it from the south and go into the alley to take him and his three helpers down.
Glenn Lushbaugh
Crime: Human Trafficking
In Alderney City, just south of the high way across from the auto erotica. As you get close he pulls out of an alley and drives off. Now chase him and shoot the car to pieces.
Phil Bacerra
Crime: Hit and Run
this one is close to the booth tunnel, jus to the southwest of it near the Marina. There you will see two trucks. Each has two guys in them. you need to kill all four for this to complete.
Sergi Szerbin
Crime: Burglary
He is hiding next to the Pay and Spray in the north. Now drive to the street one south of the one in front of the shop. you can use a rocket launcher to blow up the car in front making a lot of damage to them, but that is very expensive with little pay off. Better use the sniper rifle and kill what you can from here, they won’t come at you. Go close and clean up what is still hiding. You can do this easily without a single shot hitting you.
Danny Hatmaker
Crime: Arms Dealing
Hides out at the port area, Normandy. These guys stay in place too, around the large tanks close by. Watch the map to see targets that are above you, but most are on ground level. The last two hide between the containers to the southwest.
Mervin Eskuchen
Crime: Drug Trafficking
He sits with his friends in two patriots to the west of the Internet Cafe. Approach from the north using the street just east of the blip. When you get the red targets, get out of the car with an assault or carbine and target the guys in the cars. You would be able to kill at least one of them with this. They often also stop then and you can easily pick all four off the streets. If they get moving, simply get in your car again and hunt them down. They drive very close here around the blocks all the time, so there is not much to worry about. You can also try to wait at a corner and blow them up with a rocket launcher, but that is unnecessary expensive.
Frederick Harrison
Crime: Grand Theft Auto
He and his cronies hide in Tudor, near that old bridge. One of the guys is to the south under the bridge itself, the rest all hides up on the bridge. As you go up, check behind you, they like to shoot you in the back. Use your sniper when you can see them form far off.
Keenan Burdett
Crime: Armed Robbery
He and a lot of his gang are hiding out in a multi-story car park in Leftwood a bit to the north form the pay and spray. Go to the southwest corner here and enter through the door in the south wall. In here is a Sprunk soda machine. If you need some health while doing this, this will help. Go through the next door to the north, kill the one guy on the ground level, now follow the ramps across and a little to the right of where you entered. Go up the levels. There are a few hiding behind pillars here, but the main force is on the roof. Also, a few flights up you will pass another Sprunk machine. Now as you get sky above you, use your sniper rifle and shoot them. The last guys make a stand in the northeast corner. Remember the Sprunk machines if you need to refill your health.
Now all in Alderney are taken care of.
