How to get onto multiplayer?

[Dog--]

I just got my XBOX hooked up to the internet and I can't seem to find out how to play GTA4 online.. Is there some kind of menu I go to or something? I just get to leaderboards and that's it, I can't figure out how to get to lobbies or anything..

I believe you get there from inside the actual singleplayer game. It's an option in the menu. Unless that's where you are, in which case I have no bally clue.

1. Open up your mobile phone
2. Select multiplayer
3. ?????
4. Curse bad online lobby systems
5. ?????
6. Bring in more revenue than outgoings and overhead costs

That's kind of stupid way to have it (through your phone)... Anyways, it's pretty fun online. I trash talk alot, I must say.

The PC version MP will be where it's at.

Having both versions will turn me on.

I got a question about PC multiplayer.

Do people who buy the game on STEAM still have to do the "Rockstar Social Club" and "Windows Live" thing? Do people on Steam have their own multiplayer servers? Cause I bought the game retail and I'm using the in-game lobby, and I don't see alot of servers at all. Do STEAM players (all 1,000 of them or so according to Stats) have the same thing?
