On April 15th, Rockstar will be launching the "Rockstar Social Club", a site featuring all kinds of multiplayer leaderboards and stat tracking. It will also feature:
LCPD Police Blotter - A virtual map and tracker of single-player criminal activity logged in Liberty City from the aggregated data of millions of connected players - showing the most dangerous areas of town, most commonly used weapons and more.
The Story Gang - This special single-player leaderboard recognizes players who complete Niko Bellic's main story arc of Grand Theft Auto IV - The leaderboard ranks players according to the total amount of playing time it's taken to complete the story, as well as a historical rank by who has completed it first. Members of this club will receive special online widgets and merit badges marking all of their in-game accomplishments.
The 100% Club - Watch to see who will be the first to complete 100% of the game. The first ten people to be identified on the Social Club as reaching 100% will be sent an ultra-rare commemorative 'key to the city' to mark their accomplishment. In the future, the 100% Club will then carry a historical leaderboard showing rankings of who has completed 100% of a game in the shortest span of playing hours.
The Hall of Fame - This area will dynamically recognize those singularly elite players who have reached the top of the hill on various statistical leaderboards, and will also contain a personal awards display of special in-game landmarks and successes in Social Club competitions.
The Liberty City Marathon - A ranking of special physical milestones achieved in the game - from the amount of miles walked, driven, or swam - to the number of bullets fired and stunt-jumps jumped. There will be additional special marathon-based competitions in the future from this area as well.Source: http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3167128

I love games that track all kinds of weird and useful stuff. This will make for some interesting bragging rights down the road.

I'm already going to admit that it'll take over me, haha!

I think this Social Club idea is great. It would be cool to be the quickest to finish the story or one of the first to 100% complete this game but to me GTA is a game you mess around with for hours and do whatever you want when you want. Hats off to whomever beats the game 100% first but I know I won't be even close to it.

That is awesome, I have been looking at that site for about a week now seeing "coming soon" but not knowing what it was going to be for. And now that I have read the details, I can not wait!

Will have to add up my 360 and PS3 data and see how much havoc I cause. ;)
Looking forward to the Police Blotter and the Liberty City Marathon the most.

P.S. There is a GTAIV commercial playing right now behind me as I type this. AH, THE AGONY! I wish I could just sleep for two weeks.

Will be kinda cool, since GTA has so many awesome little stats that it has always tracked in games.

This feature just adds even MORE value to an already brilliant game.
Each GTA always gives great value for money in comparison with many other games, and GTA IV will be the best yet!

If this launches today then why not let people sign up today? Why must I wait 2 more days?
