We've just got word from Rockstar about the first teaser site they've launched, WKTTRadio.com. You can phone in have your opinion on Liberty City heard on the radio!

It sounds pretty cool, so head on over to WKTT Radio if you fancy your chances of being a voice artist in GTA IV!

Hey Chris,

I wanted to give you a heads-up about this site that has just gone up. Be sure to check it out and let everyone at your site know about it.

www.wkttradio.com

Thanks,

Webmaster@R*

Yes, although it's unfortunate that you must be 18.

Yeah, looks like it's gonna be one of the talk radio stations.

The terms and conditions say that some of the recorded calls "may be used in Grand Theft Auto IV" - so I guess if you give a good rant, they'll feature you.

Your actual voice or just like someone saying your words, either way its pretty good, shame you have to be 18.

How do they know your 18? your voice?

Your actual voice will be used in the game.

I don't know how they 'know' you're 18. But I'd imagine if your voice was actually selected then you'd have to sign some sort of contact (for them to use your voice) and to legally enter a contract you have to be 18.

No. A whole new concept it seems.

In fact I'm not aware of any game that has given it's fans this sort of opportunity. That's why R* are so awesome :P

Well you did, dmac, but wtf is .amr? .wav or .mp3 would be nice.

Well there are a lot of problems with America, so you will have lots to talk about, I doubt anyone is calling from TGTAP, most seem to be under 18 which is a shame.

I was going to call up and say something extremely ridiculous but I just realized that I had to be 18. Meh, I want to be 18 :(.

I would phone up but my British accent would sound retarded talking about problems with America :P

Would be cool if someone from this site gets in the game though, come October, let us know if you were featured.

Me? No I didn't phone up. Also, it would cost me a fortune to phone New York from the UK probably :P

Fatalgamer, what was your rant?

I called as the OUTLAW & Told 'em I was glad they got rid of the bike ban, it was the stupidest ideas liberals had yet & they

need to do something about gas prices.

Thanks for the heads up, Chris.

Excellent to see proof checking maintained strongly at R*, still managing to make a spelling mistake in something 200 words long.

Gerard and I talked about that yesterday. We were wondering if it was deliberate though seeing as it talks about war and such...

If I lived in New York, I would definitely give this a go, but unfortunately I don't. Will WKTT replace Chatterbox, or will it be a rival network? I don't want Chatterbox gone, it's probably my favourite station...
