So I keep attempting the rolled over achievement and I swear it's glitched. In one crash I did at least 7 spins, which is probably a low estimate (I bet I did at least 10 spins). Sigh.. And now I am just too angry to continue my efforts.. I'll try again tomorrow I guess. Is anyone else having similar problems?

t was odd for me...supposedly you don't need 5 in one jump.. i was in a cop car at the airport and did one jump and i rolled 3 times, then i rounded around again for another jump, got like 2, and the achevement unlocked...it was really random...

what i'm having trouble with is the dumb chain reaction and finish him achievements. i've blown up 10+ cars at a time more than 5 tries, and i havent gotten it. ive gotten 20+ under 10 one time, and it still didnt count it. WTF worst achievements ever

I spent hald an hour at the airport hitting the sloping signs in cop cars getting 2 or 3 rolls each time, but never close to 5, then after a few more attempts I hit the sign badly, didn't roll once, landed on my left side, then fell back onto its wheels, then the achievement popped up.

Its a weird one, but keep doing rolls at the airport and it seems to pop up more out of sympathy for trying than actually doing it.

"Flips" as in front-flips and back-flips? Because I have been doing barrel-rolls.

Btw. I would do the "Finish Him" Achievement at the Helitour helipads - cops can't see you and people keep coming. Just don't fight the guards.

i'm having the same sort of trouble, i tried for like 40 minutes the other day (more because i was bored than because i really wanted it) and could only get 4 flips at the most, but unfortunately i didn't get any sympathy achievement.. speaking of the GTA IV achievements though, can someone explain how to blow up 10 cars in 10 seconds? all i can think of is driving 10 cars into a gas station and then blowing up one of the tanks.

I did a combination of front or back flips and barrel rolls and got it. I was trying for like 20 minutes on those yellow things on the airport runway and could not get it though. I used those black ramp like things that are only about 2-3 feet wide to get the achievement. Hope that helps.

Easy way to get the 10 cars achievement is to take a bus and block a bridge with it. When you can count more than ten cars go to the back of the cars and run in between them while dropping grenades at the same time. Just make sure to be out if harms way so you don't get blown up too. That is the way I did it.

When you do the "Chain Reaction" Achievement... Before you throw grenades, you should shoot a gun into the air to get all of the drivers to run out of their cars.. Otherwise, when you start throwing grenades, the cars will scatter makin it harder to get the achievement

The best car to do it with is a Sentinel, not too high and not too low. Go to the airport and just go as fast as you can on the airsrtip and turn a lil bit until you see the yellow triangular thing, go on it with the 2 right wheels so you could do more spins.

Are you sure your not using cheats?

This is essentially what I did to get it, but it doesn't matter that much on the car. The patrol cars at the airport are just as good if you can't find the sentinel. Since you're getting chased it's best to do it on the outer runway.
