GTA IV Social Club on its Way

So it looks like with the release of the next Grand Theft Auto game, Rockstar intends to launch a site called Rockstar Games: Social Club, where gamers will be able to view statistical leader boards, participate in competitions, view a virtual map that will keep track of players’ activities in the single-player campaign, and tons of other features that Rockstar will roll out as time goes on.

The site will incorporate data from both Xbox 360 and Sony PS3 players, and will keep a dynamic Hall of Fame that will have achievements such as the first player to complete 100% of the game. One of the features, known as the LCPD Police Blotter, will show the most dangerous areas of town and other statistics, like the most commonly used weapons. If this proves to be popular, being that Grand Theft Auto is one of the biggest names in video game history, we can expect other games to follow suit.
