Easy chase scenes
When chasing a suspect on foot or in a vehicle, hold B to keep an eye on them. This makes chase scenes much easier.
When you get near a suspect on foot, press A repeatedly to tackle them.
In a car chase, pull up alongside to have your partner fire at him. If he shoots a tire, the car will slow down. A quicker way to take out a driver is to slam into a rear wheel, spinning the car out of control.
