Grand Theft Auto: Vice City The Definitive Edition - Take The Cannoli [Easy] 

Best method by far, did it in less than 30 minutes

This comment was the best guide for me, thanks!

He dropped it like it's hot someone might say.

Just got this free with extra going to give it a shot

This is the move right here. Do this, makes it 100 times easier.

i did this but I'm not godfather yet?

If you drive and collect them all as fast as you can then you can often times end up with a different total number of seconds remaining than your previous attempt since you might have collected a ring 1-2 seconds faster this time than you did the previous time. If you just wait for it to hit 0 then you know exactly how many seconds have gone by, it also helps for when the trial starts to speed up since you can speed up gradually along with it.

Depends how badly you mess it up, if you're only 2-4 seconds over then I wouldn't worry, it's when you start getting things like 8 seconds over the score or you're consistently getting 3-4 seconds more than you should be and then the trial will become impossible to beat, at that point I'd restart from my save.

I guess by "mess up" I mean failing from hitting a cone too hard. Timing wise you're following the strategy but you hit a cone on attempt #7 or whatever. I've been restarting the whole save file to do it again. Can I just...try it again from the top of the garage?

@@chrisrios1709 As long as you don't set a fast time then you can just restart the time trial as often as you want, if you blew the car up or died then you can just go back and do it again, the only thing you wanna restart your save file for would be if you got a time of 40 seconds and then somehow zoomed to the end and got a 14 second time.

You can fail as much as you want and it'll have no effect on the outcome thankfully, I blew up quite a few cars trying this

@@KlyeKlyeKlye ok thanks. So if i complete but only rewards me £200 thats ok keep going yeah?

@@TheJungleGeorge Yeah, 200 just means you didn't beat the time but you also didn't fail the mission.

Got the plat!

Yeah you always need that 10 million and high score for it to count, money seems to count for a lot of the criminal score

@@KlyeKlyeKlye 10 million USD gives you the 100k criminal record anyway. I just hoped I could get them without all the money. I messed up myCone Crazy run. Now I have only 6 seconds and get 200 $. I have to do it on a new savegame.

@@fritzkaraldo8452 100 mill gives you 100k score. i have 11mil and got 35k score

You'd get Take The Cannoli, only if you've not attempted Cone Crazy beforehand though or else you likely won't have the high times to beat so it would actually be impossible to gain the $100,000,000 that way. As long as you're doing Cone Crazy for the first time then you can do it on any save file

@@KlyeKlyeKlye you da MVP thank you!!

Sounds like you don't have $100,000,000+, are you playing the Definitive Edition? The PS3/PS4 ports have slightly different requirements.

@@KlyeKlyeKlye my bad, it’s not the definite edition. It’s just the solo one from the PlayStation store. So I’m guessing the requirements are different. I’ve now given up 😂

Yup, over $100,000,000 and you win, so if you're already at the end of the game you can just do Brown Thunder for an hour or two and that'll get you the trophy as well.

@@KlyeKlyeKlye really easy got the plat thanls

It doesn't need to be exact, you just need to get it roughly in the right area, get out and get in, it always works when it's parked right.

I'm not sure if the original versions will pop the trophy at $100 million since I've never tried it personally, but the method that has always worked on the classic versions is to get at least $10 million on Cone Crazy, get 80 hidden packages and then shoot an exploded car inside the Sparrow that unlocks when you collect 80 packages. Your accuracy stat will rise well above 100% and into the thousands so every time you shoot the car your Criminal Rating goes up. You can essentially just leave it running and the trophy will pop itself. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-yLn8NvbV6mk.html&ab_channel=Klye%E2%84%A2 if you'd prefer a visual guide, but there's other videos out there detailing this method too.

Your criminal rating is what pops the trophy, but your criminal rating won't get very high unless you have a lot of money, they're tied together.

@@KlyeKlyeKlye I’m doing the accuracy glitch rn and I’m wondering if I could do it and get the achievement without money and how many criminal points I need

@@hirned You need at least 10 million dollars before the criminal rating will go above a certain amount, you can do the accuracy glitch all day but it'll never move until you get the minimum 10 mill

@@KlyeKlyeKlye oh okay thanks man I’ve been looking at online forms and nothing helped… also I heard I need 1M criminal rating points? Is That true cause I also heard 250k and I’m currently at 250k

@@hirned 1 million criminal rating is true. If you've got 100 hidden packages and don't want to replay Cone Crazy over and over you can go to the army base and fly the helicopter, activate the vigilante mission "Brown Thunder" and play that for a few hours, your money and rating will go up insanely high, I think that might have been the intended method to get this trophy.

That's because you need 100 million

There's another method out there that may be more accessible for you if you can't manage this. I can't seem to find a decent guide or video that explains it but it seems like you get into a Firetruck and drive into Diaz's Mansion while the Firefighter mission is on and when you enter the building it will extinguish the fires automatically, so you can repeat this over and over until you get enough money and also get the Firefighter trophy. I don't currently have access to Vice City so I can't make a proper tutorial but I'm fairly sure someone out there has made a good one, I just can't find it for whatever reason 😅 There's also another very easy method if you've collected all 100 of the Hidden Packages (which you probably will have on at least one save file anyway if you're going for 100%) and you just get into the Hunter helicopter in the army base and activate the vigilante mission "Brown Thunder" you do keep on doing that over and over and over and you should get it in about 1-2 hours. The other methods are slower and there's more effort required than Cone Crazy since you'll need to play the game for a while to be able to access these things whereas Cone Crazy can be accessed immediately when the game begins, however if you're struggling with this is might be worthwhile doing the other methods. Good luck! You'll take the cannoli eventually, I believe in you!

@@KlyeKlyeKlye my game was glitched. I reinstalled and now its working. kind of. I am able to progress by beating my own time., but it seems I can't get within a couple seconds of each run. For example, 47s on 1st run, 43s on 2nd run, 38s on 3rd run, 33s on 4th run. its those exact numbers every time, i can't get say 47 on 1st run, then 45-46 on second, 43-44 on third and so on. i time it perfectly but always the time is in those intervals. by the time i am at 12 seconds I not even half way to 20 runs. Does this make sense? I don't know what I am doing wrong.

@@JohnSmith-oe9yy It's usually a matter of getting the rings at different points and it messes with your internal timer, you start to get lots of time at the start but the further you go into the time trial you'll get less and less time and in your head you might count faster. Use the in game clock as your timer rather than the time trial's countdown as the clock always goes up in seconds. It's tricky so maybe it's worth trying the other methods if you can't get this working

@@KlyeKlyeKlye is this trophy required for 100% complete in game trophy? meaning can I get it on another save or it has to be done in my 1 playthrough to count for 100% if that makes sense?

@@JohnSmith-oe9yy You can make a new save file and do this whenever you want to, it's not tied to the in-game 100%

If you beat the time it'll increase, test it, make a save and then rush the course as fast as you can and see it go up to 24k, if it does then you know you've just gotta speed up, or try again on a new save and take it very slowly as to not build up too fast of a time. The "definitive" edition has an alternative method using a firetruck so perhaps that might be more up your alley if this isn't working out.

I plan on it

You absolutely can! Once you get the feel for it then it becomes so much easier, just take your time with it and try to count your time in your head, or even just say it out loud to yourself to help keep track, you don't need to be perfect. You'll get it done.

@@KlyeKlyeKlye i get to my fifth and now i just went a sec earlier Time to do it again.. Ngl this is annoying

@@KlyeKlyeKlye 26 secs on the fifth one is good right? Lol

MADE IT!

Do it however you want, this way just helps prevent you from messing it up too much since if you get a low time early on then you need to restart from the beginning.

@@KlyeKlyeKlye Ah ok so your method is harder but lower chance of messing it up

I had the same question. This just confused me even more, lost me at the part when he said I had to start counting in my head

@@JBM1428I’m glad it’s not just me dude I couldn’t follow him at all.

I agree, Firetruck works super well if your game doesn't crash and is much easier

It worked well on my PS4, playing the definitive edition. I couldn't believe how fast I got it, and it was very satisfying watching the amount of money earned per mission exponentially increase every time.

Thank you so much brother

@@xqc506i4 You're welcome! Glad I could help you!
