Rockstar Social Club is down for some [update]
We've gotten reports from several of you that the Rockstar Social Club, the company's online hub for leaderboards and stat tracking, is down for the count. Though we haven't been able to access it, Rockstar PR tells us that the site was up earlier in the day. Apparently a few people have been trying to log on. We can't imagine why.
This sounds like we're all gonna need persistence or patience if we want to join the club today. Luckily, we imagine that several of you have a certain new game filled with certain new hookers to beat and certain new innocents to indiscriminately kill to help you pass the time.
[Update: All's well now.]

It's back up, now.

Unfortunately, I do not have that "certain game" because of the ESRB and the law.
Jonah Falcon @ Apr 29th 2008 12:17PM
If you're under 17, as well it should be. It's up to your parents to decide whether you can play. You're not banned from PLAYING. You're banned from BUYING without parental supervision.

Yeah, well unfortunately my parents are partial Christian extremists, so I'll have to wait 3 more years to get my hands on this game.

damn, sucks to be you.

Good. Thats the way it should be
StarFoxA @ Apr 29th 2008 12:27PM
Hopefully my friend will get it, then I can play it at his house.
And why is it good? I'm much more mature than the common idiots that you encounter on Live.
SirPasta117 @ Apr 29th 2008 12:28PM
Agree'd Thats why theres ESRB ratings. Tell Your parents that SirPasta117 said, "Thank you!"
Karen @ Apr 29th 2008 12:53PM
You have good parents, be grateful they care about you. Guess what, when you have your own kids one day you won't let them play GTA till their old enough either
StarFoxA @ Apr 29th 2008 2:12PM
I know I'll be thankful for it later, but right now I'll pout about it. :(
Jonah Falcon @ Apr 29th 2008 12:16PM
It's called "site traffic", fellas.
Anthony @ Apr 29th 2008 12:22PM
Forget the site being down. It would be nice if I could use the site when it is up.
When I try to access the stats portion of the site it says my XBox Live account isn't connected. Even though the site seems to think it is already connected to the XBox account (as it should be) when I try to reconnect it.

Yesterday's Crime Report
Up 848,780,099% from Previous Day
Calls 8,241,576
Criminals Arrested 24,700
Cars Stolen 781,556
Damn, the Liberty City PD must be a little strained!

In 1988, the crime rate in the United States rises four hundred percent. The once-great city of New York becomes the one maximum-security prison for the entire country. A fifty-foot containment wall is erected along the New Jersey shoreline, across the Harlem river, and down along the Brooklyn shoreline. It completely surrounds Manhattan Island. All bridges and waterways are mined. The United States Police Force, like an army, is encamped around the island. There are no guards inside the prison: only prisoners and the worlds they have made.
The rules are simple. Once you go in, you don't come out.

It isn't necessarily down for me, but something in the way the cache data is causing it to forget my gamertag linking every time I reload the page.
Aj Collins @ Apr 29th 2008 3:29PM
I can link my Xbox Live gamertag fine. However, my PSN ID is another story.
1900Hustler @ May 9th 2008 4:23PM
Im up and linked with my Live id, but there's really not much content there unless you've finished the game I suppose.
It's not like the Bungie-Halo website which shows you all these cool screenshots and stats.
