The Rockstar Games Social Club has opened today for pre-registration. If you don't remember from a previous news article, the Social Club tracks registered users game stats and has leaderboards.

The interesting news out of the Social Club is the new competition Rockstar Games have put together:

One Grand Prize Winner will have their portrait illustrated by Rockstar Games in the Grand Theft Auto style. The winner will receive a digital copy of the portrait and a cropped version of the image will be used as the avatar for the winner’s Social Club membership. Winner will be required to prepare and submit a series of reference photographs upon which the portrait will be based.

Speaking of registering, why not register at our forums and discuss this topic with fellow members.
