Rockstar Games today launched the Millionaires Club - "recognizing and celebrating all of the wealthy seven–figure Grand Theft Auto IV players at the Rockstar Games Social Club." Millionaire status is determined by totaling all of the money you've ever earned in single–player–mode from completing missions, winning races, doing vigilante side–jobs, and fortuitously picking up ‘dropped’ money in the street.
If you would like to see just how rich your fellow Millionaires are, you can mouse over each for a quick glimpse of their lifetime single–player money earned. With three leaderboards ranked by who’s become a Millionaire first, who’s done it quickest, and who is the richest in the City.
And also coming soon to Social Club... the Viral Infection "zombie feature." Sounds interesting, more info coming soon we're told.

Catch me if you can!
For this game, you can have a small amount of players, but the more the merrier. Police should be turned off for this game. Head over to the airport. Split up the players. Half should get helicopters. Half should be in cars. The objective for the players in the helicopters is to blow up and kill all of the players in the cars. The players in the cars should try and stay alive as long as possible. Keep track of the time that the players were alive for! Once they are all dead, switch sides. See which team can stay alive the longest, without leaving the airport.
I had a blast with this! We had some intense firefights, and it is definitely a challenge for the players in the car! You might want to grab a fast and durable car that can keep you going beforehand. You u might want to use the planes as some shelter from the helicopters!
The End Story End GTA 4
The following article is for players who completed the game. Rockstar Games kept their word in that the game will not end in one specific way, but that there will be varried ways dependant on what you choose to do near the end of the game. As you'd expect, the following article contains spoilers. So don't read on if you didn't complete the game yet.
The two different ways that the game end is not all that different, but they involve different characters and certain people die if you go one way, whereas other die another way. This is not a mission guide, but merely a rundown of the events taking place at the end of the story line of Grand Theft Auto IV.
Near the end of the game, Jimmy Pegorino will call you up and ask that you come see him at a Strip Club. He wants you to partner up with your adversary Dimitri and engage in a drug deal. Things have not gone so well with Dimitri in the past, he is after all the man who burnt down Roman's business and apartment in Broker. So naturally Niko is hesitant on what to do.
You'd think that Roman would still be furious about this, and would encourage Niko to not go ahead with the deal, but he actually wants you to go forward with it. He'll speak with you on the phone telling you that it would be the best option, especially given the money involved. He even sends you a text message telling you that if you do this deal, you can use this money and maybe fly up to Vice City some time.
On the other side, Packie's sister Kate does not want you to go forward with this deal. She says that you don't need the money, and you should remember the negative behavior that Dimitri exhibited towards you in the past.
So from here you have two options to take: the "Deal" option in Alderney - which will start the mission "If the Price is Right", or the "Revenge" option - which will start "A Dish Served Cold". The former of which is what Niko encourages of course, and the latter what Kate does.
Grand Theft Auto 4 -GTA4
I wouldn’t mind a little more detail as well. I started a thread over at PC Gamer magazine’s forums about just this very topic–why hadn’t anyone ever pressed Rockstar about the PC version of GTA IV:
http://www.pcgamer.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=38965
I’m not familiar with your site but this looks to me like the first time anybody has gotten this much detail in a quote from Rockstar before. Can you lend us a little more specificity as to the quality of your source?
When I emailed Rockstar about this issue, this was all I got:
Thanks for the email. Unfortunately, since we haven’t announced plans for any possible PC version of Grand Theft Auto IV, I’m afraid I don’t have an answer for you. Stay tuned to the Rockstar Games official website for details on all of our upcoming game announcements.
Cheers,
Rockstar Games
GTA4 - Your Thoughts
It's been about 3 weeks since Grand Theft Auto IV was released, and in that first week almost every single gamer had the same thoughts on their mind: "This game is the greatest piece of video gaming software ever made!", but we want to know how everyone feels now.
A lot of people have completed the story and a fair few have already achieved 100% completion, so we'd like to hear your own personal opinions now that you've spent countless hours with the game.
Does it still make you wet yourself with excitement when you play it? Are you becoming bored of it? Do various things really piss you off? Does the multiplayer just not appeal to you? Is there enough stuff to do once you've finished the main story? Do you wish something else was in the game? Get it off your chest and post in this topic on our forums so we can find out exactly what GTA fans really think of Grand Theft Auto IV.
The Unveiling of GTA IV
Grand Theft Auto IV was announced on May 9, 2006 at Microsoft's E3 press conference. Peter Moore (who was Corporate Vice-President of Microsoft's Interactive Entertainment Business division at the time of the announcement) rolled up the left sleeve of his t-shirt to reveal a GTA4 tattoo on his arm. He announced that GTA 4 would be available on Xbox 360 in 2007, and revealed that Microsoft and Rockstar Games had formed a strategic alliance in order to provide exclusive episodic content for Xbox Live, giving the community ever-expanding gameplay experiences.
The contents of the Grand Theft Auto IV special edition. Take2 Interactive then issued a press release which announced that GTA IV would be released simultaneously for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in October 2007. However, the game was delayed on August 2, 2007, because some elements of the development were proving to be more time-intensive than originally expected. On January 24, 2008, a worldwide release date of April 29, 2008 was announced by Rockstar Games.
It was announced on May 21, 2007, that GTA 4 would be available as a special edition on the same day as the regular edition. It is presented in a customised Grand Theft Auto metal safety deposit box, and includes the game, a limited edition duffel bag, an exclusive keychain, a selected soundtrack CD, and a Grand Theft Auto IV Art Book, featuring never-before-seen production artwork from GTA4.
