Busted is a term referring to when a player is arrested in a Grand Theft Auto game.

Many things can contribute to this:

  • Getting pulled out of a car/bike/helicopter/plane/boat.
  • On the ground as a cop is standing over the player (mainly in hand-to-hand combat).
  • Getting knocked over while trying to steal a cop car (while a cop is inside).
  • Being held at gun point by an officer. If the player decides not to run away, they'll be cuffed (in GTA IV)

Effects

As a result of getting busted the player will lose all of their weapons (except in GTA San Andreas, if the player has Barbara Schternvart as a girlfriend) and fail any mission they were currently taking part in. In GTA Vice City Stories the player can repurchase their weapons for $2,000.

In GTA San Andreas, when Carl Johnson gets busted, he will respond either positively or negatively to the officer, depending on the wanted star level.
