26) Not So Hasty - 15 G - Stop a fleeing suspect with a warning shot.

You can get this in almost any case or street crime when you are running after a suspect on foot, but one of the easiest times is during the first Arson case, "The Gas Man." To perform a warning shot, you have to aim your gun at the suspect and keep the reticule over them until the small circle fills, which takes a couple seconds. In that mission, you have to chase Varley, and after the first turn around a house, as he goes to cross the street, you'll have plenty of time to pull this off.

27) Huckster - 15 G - Outwit Leland Monroe when discussing his ad campaign.

In the second Arson mission, "Walk in elysian fields," you will have to interview Monroe. Simply answer the first two questions this way and the achievement is yours. Be sure to have found the Elysian fields flyers clue at the crime scene first.

Topic - "Elysian linked to arsons" - Pick "Doubt"
Topic - "Promotional travel contest" - Pick "Lie" and select "elysian fields flyers"

28) Moth to a Flame - 70 G - Complete all cases on the Arson desk.

This is the story achievement for beating the game. It will unlock after the final cut-scenes after the water battles.

29) Miles on the Clock - 15 G - Drive more than 194.7 miles.

If you drive instead of your partner in all missions, and do a few side missions during the main game, you will likely get this near the end of the game. If not, you can check under statistics to see how much you have, and you can always drive a lot in free mode as you locate collectibles and do any remaining side missions.

30) Star Map - 15 G - Discover all landmark locations (30).

If my directions are too vague, here is a 2 part video guide to make it simpler: 1 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wMIgp...layer_embedded, 2 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MQJQ1...layer_embedded

Top Left:

Grauman's Theater - Hollywood Blvd. between Orchid and Orange
Roosevelt Hotel - Hollywood Blvd. and Orange
Max Factor Building - Hollywood Blvd. and Highland
Musso and Frank Grill - Hollywood Blvd. between Las Palmas ands Whitley
Crossroads to the World - Las Palmas and Sunset Blvd.
Brown Derby - take Vine a little south from Hollywood blvd

Bottom/ mid-right:

Bullocks Willshire - Wilshire Blvd. and Westmoreland
LA County Art Museum - 8th St and Hoover St.
Westlake Tar Pits - Westmoreland and Hoover, park found there
Park Plaza - by corner of Park View and 6th
MacArthur Park - Wilshire Blvd.
Good Samaritan Hospital - between Lucas Ave. and Witmer
Mayfair Hotel - along 7th St.
Intolerance Set - 8th and Francisco, used twice in main game
Christ Crown of Thorns - last location of a main story mission
Chinatown - take Broadway as far up as it goes
El Pueblo - east of Alameda St, between main and LA
Union Station - also east of Alameda St, a little more east of el pueblo
Hall of Records - used a couple times in main story
Angel's Flight - Hill St and 3rd St.
Bradbury Building - corner of 3rd st and Broadway
LA Public Library - part of final homicide mission
Pershing Square - at start of final homicide mission
RKO Theater - by corner of 8th St and Hill
Los Angeles Examiner - a little below 11th and Broadway
Main St. Terminal - 6th St and LA
LA Cold Storage - Central and Alameda, below 3rd st.
4th Street Viaduct - take 4th St over river
6th Street Viaduct - take 6th St over river
National Biscuit Company - by corner of Industrial and Mateo

31) Public Menace - 30 G - Rack up more than $47,000 in penalties in one case.

Not much to say here. You will get a poor case rating obviously, so this should be a single case replayed. And then, basically total a bunch of cars, hit some people, knock over lights and stands, but the key is totaling other cars. This can usually be done easily if you crash head on into it while going fast. You will know it is totaled because the engine will be exposed and on fire.

32) Roscoe and Friends -15 G - Kill an enemy with every gun.

M1917 Revolver
Star Model P
12 Gauge Pump Action Shotgun
Thompson M1
Thompson M1 (with attachment so it's the famed tommy gun)
Browning Automatic Rifle
M1 Garand
Browning Hi-Power
Flame Thrower (found in cache in tunnels during last mission before the flooded room)

33) The Brass - 30 G - Achieve maximum rank (20).

You will get this in getting all dialog choices right and doing a few street crime cases. You get 5 points for every right dialog choice, 15 for every street crime, and 5 for every hidden vehicle found. This just takes time, and will come as you work on everything else, nothing to stress over.

Now for total collectible/ completionist achievements. I will put clues and dialog choices together to make it easiest for you. Still, it is difficult to keep organized, and some dialog options or proven lies require some evidence, so i will list evidence before dialog.
