*Before the completion of the mission [[Blow Your Cover]] for [[Elizabeta Torres]], Algonquin is a good place to gain the "One Man Army" Achievement. To do this, the player has to somehow enter the borough, gaining a six-star wanted level. Once the player has gained the wanted level, they must somehow stay alive in the borough for five real-world minute to gain the achievement. | |||
* An alternate method of gaining the "One-Man Army" achievement in Algonquin before the completion of Blow Your Cover is to spawn a vehicle using cheats (this will not block any achievements, unless it is the Annihilator) and drive it around Algonquin's subway network for five real-wrold minutes until they gain the achievement. | |||
