How is this different from any other game's "XBL leaderboard stats"? I mean aside from the fact that they game it a unique name....or do they mean its an online leaderboard; I have to get up from my xbox to go online and check out my stats?

From the article, I guess they didn't put too much luster to the story so it sounds "meh" to me....I may register and check it out though and see if its everything Rockstar wanted it to be

still this type of system in grandtheft auto sounds intersting wonder how it will do 

I really hope that on 29th of April they will also announce when the PC version of GTA 4 will be released 

Hmm.  Maybe it's like the Halo 3 stat site?  I don't plan to get GTA4 until it's much cheaper, but I'll keep an eye on these features.

That was the other thought that I had.....it'd be kinda cool I guess but GTA isn't a FPS so much as a RPG so the selection of stats collected would be kinda neat to see

so it should show things like how many cars blown up total money stolen that type of stuff if im correct
