When you find yourself fighting an overwhelming number of enemies during a drug bust, find a car beforehand and run them all over. This is easier and safer than fighting them all hand-to-hand.

Jackie will eventually tell you that you can make some easy money by hijacking money trucks. These trucks are randomly generated everywhere. You can pinpoint them by the orange icon that is above them. These trucks are rolling tanks; bullets and vehicle rams will not affect them much. After you hijack a truck, use it to ram the cops. This will save you time from having trying to outrun them.

You are seen as an icon in Hong Kong. Because of that, people will ask you for different favors. These are shown as yellow blips on your map. Increase your face value as much as possible by answering their requests; this will make things easier for you later. For example, people you have to beat up will be naturally more scared of you.

As you do certain things throughout the game, you establish your fear factor. Basically, this is how characters in the game interpret your presence; if they are afraid or not. The more brutal you are, the higher your fear factor. When beating people up, use objects and your surroundings; the more brutal, the better. Use weapons, vehicles to run them over, etc., to make them fear you.

After the second popstar mission, Amanda will appear outside your apartment. Take her on a brief tour of the city (Bam Bam Club and the Temple), ending at the martial arts dojo. Complete the training exercise to finish the mission. You will then be able to call her for a proper date. Successfully complete the date with Amanda (where you take photos of her) to have unclaimed Health Shrines appear on the mini-map. For every five health shrines you collect, your max hit points will be increased by 10%.

There are a few types of hidden items in the game; locked chests with money, praying totems, and your former martial arts teachers statues.

Locked chests
There is an easy way to find a majority of the locked money chests, because they will most likely have people you have to beat up to get to them and they appear as red on your map. These chests, like the other hidden items, brightly glow if you have not gotten to them yet. All of them are outside.

Praying totems
All of these will be outside somewhere in different "noticeable" places. A few examples are parks/gardens, near shops you can walk into, alleys, special kinds of buildings, etc. If you see one of these, use it by any means necessary because it increases your life span.

Statues
All of these will be inside a location, and a majority of them will coincide with different missions you have. For example, you will have a mission to investigate hospital files and you will have to go into the hospital; one of the statues is at the primary desk.

You can receive the outfit from Just Cause 2 by having a Just Cause 2 save file on your HDD.

Challenge and defeat opponents in all the martial arts clubs to unlock the Ong Bak costume in your closet.

Get plenty of sleep and regular massages. Massage parlors can be found on the map by looking for the symbol featuring two hands. Aside from eating, these are the easiest methods of health rejuvenation available.
