You can now pre-register for the Rockstar Social Club using your Xbox Live gamertag and/or PlayStation Network ID. The Social Club will fully open once GTA IV is released, and will provide all kinds of statistics on your game progress. There are even prizes for those who complete the game the fastest. See our original news story for all the details.

The website states that early adopters who pre-register before April 29th will be rewarded by being automatically entered to win a special once-in-a-lifetime prize for true GTA fans: your portrait custom drawn by Rockstar Games in the signature style of Grand Theft Auto IV's illustrations. You'll need to be aged 18 or over, and reside in one of the following countries: United States, Germany, The Netherlands, New Zealand, Switzerland, or the United Kingdom. For more details head to the sweepstakes page.

As everyone knows, the lower your user ID the bigger your penis :P

That's an awesome artwork though, there's quite a bit of new stuff there.

I'm assuming we enter them when the site opens properly. I thought we would have had to enter them on registration but obviously not.

Yeah same that would make the most sense lol.

Can we actually do anything on the social club as of now? or was it literally pre registering for the 29th?

Just pre-registration... looks like a few games are coming soon though. And if you're over 18 you've automatically been entered into that competition. We'll of course update with any further developments.

Alright, I registered, after a few frustrating minutes with Firefox - DON'T use Firefox if you want to register, the full page doesn't display for some reason. I'm member #54473, @ mark, it isn't just for music, there'll be online leaderboards for the multiplayer matches, amongst other things.

i know, but thats what i mean bossman. i probably wont ever check on the leaderboard because its not something that really interests me, im a casual player so i just play when im bored, or if its raining ( live in scotland so thats most of the time ) or if i have nothing better to do.. i dont want to know that i'm in 190,000th place in the world leaderboard or something. but the only thing that interests me really is the music side that you can save a name of a music file which is why i asked if it was like a paying thing or if you could just download it straight to your harddrive from the website itself for free.

You can buy the music in game using your mobile, so surely that will rate higher than the website? The only way to get hold of the music is to pay for it.

Or wait until someone rips the music from the game and uploads it online...

Me, I registered but I doubt I'll use it that much. I'm not really a leaderboard sort of person, either. There'll be 30 second samples on the site when it's fully underway, so you can sample the songs you like and buy them.

Well I used Firefox to register. To Firefox users, just hit F11 if you're using Windows XP and it'll go on full screen and you'll see the submit link. Its simple.
