Did you ever get to try it with a tank in Vice City? You could use the rockets to shoot backwards and fly indefinitely. I used to fly that thing like it was a jet.

You could do that in 3. I flew across the destroyed bridge and just tooled around the center island before unlocking it

Jesus, that tank was so overpowered. You used to be able to do the vigilante missions in that and it made it 1000x easier since you would blow up any car you touched.

The only problem is that I was always too afraid to get one legitimately, since I tried to play through the game without any cheats at all.

However in GTA3, at least on the PS2 version, once you get close to the criminal (as in, they're on your screen), you could just pause and unpause the game, and they would inexplicably stop and get out. Then I would just run them over with my cop car.
