GTA PS2 Cheat Codes GTA PS2 Health and Money Cheats

$250k, armor, and near-infinite health on DualShock 2, plus the hard line that Vice City has neither cash nor god mode.

GTA PS2 Health and Money Cheats

Health and money cheats are the restock, not the riot. This page is the DualShock 2 atlas for filling the red bar, the blue bar, and, on the discs that actually allow it, a $250,000 drop. The library is GTA III (2001), Vice City (2002), San Andreas (2004), Liberty City Stories (2006 on PS2), and Vice City Stories (2007 on PS2). Story campaigns are single-player. There is no shared wallet.

Enter every combo in live play with the D-pad. Do not pause. Analog compass taps fail the sting. Method notes live on how to enter cheats. These rows rank as mission-friendly when you only needed a retry. They are not invincibility. Vice City still has no money cheat and no god mode on the original PlayStation 2 disc. Lists that promise either are mixing San Andreas, GTA III, Stories cash, PC words, or a cartridge device. Decode those on fake codes.

San Andreas: health, armor, and $250k in one sting

The pad cousin of the PC word HESOYAM is a twelve-button DualShock 2 string. You never type letters on original PS2 San Andreas. There is no on-screen keyboard.

Health, armor, and $250,000: R1, R2, L1, X, Left, Down, Right, Up, Left, Down, Right, Up

Each successful entry refills the red bar, fills armor, and adds $250,000. It is not infinite money. There is no original PlayStation 2 San Andreas combo that sets the wallet to unlimited. If you want another quarter million, enter the string again. If a blog promises “infinite cash” on the 2004 disc, it is lying or talking about a device.

The fourth button is X. Vice City’s health string uses Circle in that slot and does not add dollars. Copying CJ’s X row onto Tommy will not invent a Vice City money cheat.

Near-infinite health: Down, X, Right, Left, Right, R1, Right, Down, Up, Triangle

This is the string PC lists call BAGUVIX. On DualShock 2 it is buttons, not letters. It resists bullets and melee. It does not make CJ unkillable. Explosions, drowning, long falls, and being run over still kill. Some mission fail states check whether you can take damage, so this is a sandbox row, not a story crutch. It was removed from The Definitive Edition. Original PS2 San Andreas still has it. Compare removals on PS2 vs PC codes. Keep it off a 100% slot; the refill combo above is the restock you actually want on a campaign copy.

Full San Andreas tables, including weapon sets and the jetpack, sit on San Andreas codes. After a tank or Hydra from vehicle cheats, use the refill sting, then clear stars on wanted level cheats if the army is already incoming.

Vice City: health and armor only

Original PlayStation 2 Vice City has a health refill and an armor refill. It does not drop cash. It does not grant invincibility or god mode. PC Vice City can type a god-mode word; the DualShock 2 disc cannot. That is the number-one fake on a palm-tree collage.

Health (also repairs the current car): R1, R2, L1, Circle, Left, Down, Right, Up, Left, Down, Right, Up

Armor: R1, R2, L1, X, Left, Down, Right, Up, Left, Down, Right, Up

Health uses Circle in the fourth slot and also repairs the vehicle Tommy is driving, which is why it is the restock when a Stinger is on fire and there is still no cash sting to buy a new one. Armor uses X in that slot and fills the blue bar only. Neither one adds dollars. If you need money in 1986 Vice, play the story, buy property, or run taxi and vigilante work. Do not paste CJ’s combo onto Tommy and call it a discovery. The 2002 list is on Vice City codes.

GTA III: three R2, R2 rows

GTA III splits health, armor, and cash. Several player cheats start R2, R2, not R1, R2. Bring a Vice City opener onto Portland and the 2001 disc will ignore you.

Health: R2, R2, L1, R1, Left, Down, Right, Up, Left, Down, Right, Up

Armor: R2, R2, L1, L2, Left, Down, Right, Up, Left, Down, Right, Up

$250,000: R2, R2, L1, L1, Left, Down, Right, Up, Left, Down, Right, Up

The compass loop is shared. The fourth pair after R2, R2, L1 is the fork: R1 is health, L2 is armor, L1 is cash. Health also repairs the vehicle Claude is driving. Cash can be repeated; it is still +$250k per sting, not an infinite wallet. Full III rows, including the six-Circle Rhino, sit on GTA III codes.

Liberty City Stories and Vice City Stories

The Stories ports have real $250k strings. That is a Stories-family feature, not a 2002 Vice City feature. Putting a 2006 or 2007 cash code on a 2002 disc is still a fake for the plastic in the tray. PSP lists write L and R; this wiki already uses L1 and R1.

LCS $250,000: L1, R1, Triangle, L1, R1, Circle, L1, R1

LCS health: L1, R1, X, L1, R1, Square, L1, R1

LCS armor: L1, R1, Circle, L1, R1, X, L1, R1

VCS $250,000: Up, Down, Left, Right, X, X, L1, R1

VCS health: Up, Down, Left, Right, Circle, Circle, L1, R1

VCS armor: Up, Down, Left, Right, Square, Square, L1, R1

LCS cash, health, and armor all start L1, R1 and then alternate a face button through another L1, R1 pair. VCS cash, health, and armor share an Up, Down, Left, Right opener and then double a face button before L1, R1. Doubled X is money. Doubled Circle is health. Doubled Square is armor. Some Liberty City Stories flags cannot toggle; the restock rows are the ones you can treat as session loadouts. Open Liberty City Stories codes or Vice City Stories codes for the rest of those pads.

“Immune blood” is a mistranslation

Some lists translate a health or armor refill as “immune blood,” “kebal,” or “god blood.” That wording makes a refill sound like invincibility. On PS2, a health code fills the red bar. An armor code fills the blue bar. San Andreas can do both plus cash in one string. None of those is a promise that bullets bounce off.

The only original-PS2 row that even looks like a god mode is San Andreas near-infinite health, and even that still loses to explosions, water, long falls, and vehicles. Vice City has no equivalent. If a collage prints “immune blood” under a Vice City logo, it is a mistranslated health or armor sting, or it stole BAGUVIX from 2004. Keep those fakes on fake codes.

Weapon sets refill guns, not the wallet. Use weapon sets when the bar you care about is ammo. Use wanted level cheats when the bar you care about is stars. A health sting does not shave a six-star military response after a Rhino spawn.

What to save, and what not to

Health, armor, and +$250k are session loadouts. If you avoid saving, they die when you load the clean slot. Near-infinite health is the exception in spirit: it marks the file as cheated even on original PS2 hardware that has no trophies, and The Definitive Edition removed the row entirely. Copy the campaign first. Cheat on the copy. Keep Slot A boring. Save-file warnings is the memory-card workflow.

If you only needed guns, skip cash. If you only needed a retry after a busted car, use health (and on Vice City, enjoy the repair). If you wanted a Hydra, that is vehicle cheats, not a wallet. The cheat finder groups the same restock across discs when the effect exists. The codes hub is the per-game atlas. DualShock 2 controls stops an accidental Circle (fire) from poisoning a compass loop. The guides hub is the method layer. The five-game lineup is on the games hub.

A restock is a full bar and, on four of these five discs, a quarter million you can request again. It is not an infinite wallet on original PS2 San Andreas. It is not god mode in Vice City. It is not “immune blood.” Type nothing. Tap the DualShock 2 string for the disc in the tray, hear the sting, and leave the invincibility myths on the wrong-platform list.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers for DualShock 2 codes, saves, and fake lists.

Can I type HESOYAM on a DualShock 2 for health and money?

No. HESOYAM is a PC keyboard word. On PS2 San Andreas the same effect is R1, R2, L1, X, then a Left, Down, Right, Up loop. Compare input languages in PS2 vs PC codes.

Is there a Vice City PS2 money cheat or god mode?

No. Original PlayStation 2 Vice City has health and armor only. Lists that promise cash or invincibility are mixing discs or PC words. See fake codes and Vice City codes.

Does San Andreas have infinite money on original PS2?

No. Each successful entry of the health-armor-money combo adds $250,000. There is no unlimited wallet string on the 2004 disc. Repeat the combo if you want another drop. Full rows are on San Andreas codes.

What does “immune blood” mean on a cheat list?

Usually a mistranslated health or armor refill, or the San Andreas near-infinite health string. It is not true invincibility. Vice City still has no god-mode pad combo. Decode mixed tables on fake codes.

Does San Andreas near-infinite health stop every death?

No. It resists bullets and melee. Explosions, drowning, long falls, and being run over still kill. The row was removed from The Definitive Edition. Use the refill combo on a story copy; see save-file warnings.

Do Liberty City Stories and Vice City Stories have cash cheats?

Yes. LCS uses L1, R1, Triangle, L1, R1, Circle, L1, R1. VCS uses Up, Down, Left, Right, X, X, L1, R1. Those rows do not work on 2002 Vice City. Open Liberty City Stories or Vice City Stories.
