Feltzer is the covertible with the blocky front end (differs from the
Blade), GTA's Patriot is the Humvee H1. The Feltzer should be available in
Easter Basin at certain times in San Fierro, I can't remember for sure
about the Humvee. I thought that it shows up in San Fierro somewhat rarely
at certain spots, but is also available at the Restriced Area near the
tanks almost all the time. Not sure you want to risk the 5 star wanted
level though, unless there's a cheat to get past that?

It's sometimes locked. Again, just drive away and then back again.

Forgot to mention; The Feltzer appears quite commonly during the Valet
missions at the Vank Hoff hotel in San Fierro.

It's possible to re-do them if you've already done all 7 levels needed,
just step into the red glow wearing the Valet uniform you can get from
any of your safehouses that have wardrobes.

As the PC and XBox versions have a larger "field" of memory I'd suggest
blowing it up if it's locked, then the game is more likely to spawn one
that's unlocked.

The first few times I went on the rampage in SA wayyyy back in November
I kept on remembering that lines from The Simpsons with Sideshow Bob's
brother Cecil;

"You may feel a slight ringing in your ears, but fortunately you won't
be anywhere near them".

Nothing I like more than a *really* pretty explosion, and I've just
linked up my PS2 to my stereo for that surround-sound feel. I'd suggest
to anyone to try it, I never realised just how good the sound engine is
in SA when compared to GTAIII and VC.

Forgot to mention; it's especially good with Rockstar games. SA,
Manhunt and Red Dead Revolver all have atmospheric sound systems. The
closer you are to something, the better you can hear it.

Manhunt was pretty spooky the first time around with the curtains drawn
and the volume turned up. As quite a few people have stated before,
it's Rockstar's tradition of making games that put you firmly as the
player (ie: "In The Game" ), far better than Quake or Doom ever did
anyway.

GTAIII had much more innovative things like echoes in the tunnels, or
even when standing under a ledge. VC was missing quite a few of these
environmental sounds for some reason, but not so much as to detract
from the gameplay.

Every time I hear that I have a quick scout around with the camera just
in case I can get a shot of a plane flying too low and crashing.

The amount of times I'e seen this with the CPU controlled Rustler on
top of Mount Chiliad is unreal. It has me in stitches everytime )
