How Baseball Bat and Car Bomb Detonator stack up across the stats that actually matter in Grand Theft Auto III.
GTA III's only proper melee weapon — a wooden bat that downs pedestrians in two or three swings and turns car windows into shrapnel. Reliably looted from downed Mafia goons in Portland.
The handheld trigger for 8-Ball's car bombs — buy a bomb job at any 8-Ball garage, get back to the car, and detonate on cue. The only way to weaponise a parked Patriot in 2001 Liberty City.
