GTAIV to get Social Tracking

[Shamrock]

Pretty much an awesome leaderboard for this game. I can't wait to compare how awesome I am compared to Stigmata.

You'll get to see the most used weapon (ehem rocket launcher), most dangerous part of the city, etc. Compare miles walked, bullets shot, etc. Plus much more.

I can't wait.

Compatible with Xbox LIVE and PSN, players can register starting April 15th to track all sorts of neat stuff they do in GTA IV when it's released April 29th. In addition to ranking players by time to single player completion, tracking the first to complete 100% of the game and singling out the best in a Hall of Fame, something called the LCPD Police Blotter will be a virtual map listing every single-player crime committed in Liberty City, ever. Oh, and additional lists will be aggregated of various "physical milestones" like miles walked and bullets fired.

* 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.

That sounds pretty awesome.

 

[Stigmata]

I believe this calls for an "oh my god f*ck yes".

 

[highlander]

Wooooooooot!

 

[Raziaar]

Why the **** does there have to be an incentive to try to be one of the first to complete the game 100%?

That will only have me rushing the game.

Excuse me if I lower my gear and enjoy the ride.

 

[Rapstah]

You can't beat a GTA game 100%!

 

[Geogaddi]

I prefer to take it in nice and slow, to soak up the story and atmosphere.

 

[Insano]

This reminds me of "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory".

 

[AmishSlayer]

You can't beat a GTA game 100%!

You actually get some cool rewards for doing just that in other GTA games.

I don't plan to go for 100% until I've leisurely made my way through the game. I don't really care about most of the leaderboard stuff except for comparing with my friends.

 

[DigiQ8]

**** yes!

 

[Raziaar]

Hey guys go ahead and send me a PM with your xbox live gamertag and I will add it to The Gta IV Gang group, so we have a compiled list of gamertags all in one place that can be updated easily.

And if you're not a member of The GTA IV Gang group, join now if you intend on playing with us once the game is released.

 

[Javert]

Huh, what about PC players?

Of course you can. I did it with GTA III, vice and SA.

Anyway that idea sounds nifty, I'm impressed

 

[AmishSlayer]

Huh, what about PC players?

There isn't even a PC version announced yet :|

I like stat trackers like these. Tis rather cool.

 

[Hazar]

it's to track all the people who will become criminals from playing the game :shh:

 

[Raziaar]

Once this game is released and stats are available, I'm so going to create a thread for stat tracking and posting just exactly what kinds of crimes each of you are doing and in what quantities.

I can't wait for that thread. I will be murdering and raping witnesses to my burglary of the Ammu-Nation.

 

[Qonfused]

I'll just be blowing people up with car bombs.
