Collectibles
A hidden package is a pickup placed in different map locations difficult to find or reach. First introduced in GTA 2 as a collectible item, which means the player is rewarded for finding a certain amount of them.

Collection
Each game features an unique set of hidden packages. They are created from the very beginning of the game and exist all the time until the player finds and collect them.
GTA 2
In GTA 2 each of three game levels contains 50 hidden badges resembling the game logo. Finding all of 50 grants the player an access to the bonus level.
GTA III
GTA III features 100 hidden packages around the city. They are the pickups with the model package1.dff and type 5, created by the opcode 02EC.
Vice City
Similar to GTA III, there are 100 hidden packages located on the Vice City map. They are again the pickups with the model package1.dff and type 6, created by the opcode 02EC.
