Fan Photo Pictorial from Instagram and Beyond: Stickerbombings, Vercetti Selfies, Custom Kicks...

Posted on May 1 2013, 2:20pm | Author: R* Y | Filed Under: Games, Rockstar

In our latest photoset of cool Rockstar-related stuff seen and shared on Instagram, we've got everything from Liberty City golf cart shenanigans, to sick (and quite painful looking) Rockstar tattoos, to an entire ongoing Instagram account from the perspective of Tommy Vercetti circa '86 living the life in Vice City.

As always, if you happen upon (or take) cool Rockstar-related shots, make sure to send them our way via Mouthoff and remember to follow us at instagram.com/rockstargames for our latest official pics.

@thomas_scott recovered this holy grail archaeological find - his vintage decade-old hand-written #ViceCity cheat sheet.

  Spotted in the streets of our homebase, #NYC.

Just one of our faves from the anachronistically awesome @tommyvercetti86 account: "Me and Colonel Cortez on his yacht talking business. Afterwards we had some sushi and watched reruns of Diff'rent Strokes." And who can forget that time when Tommy joined the VCPD...

  This one was captured a few months back at Art Basel Week in Miami. A fantastic meta graf mural rendition of #ViceCity's martini girl snapped by @ris4romero.

Hit the jump for more images including custom GTAV kicks, San Andreas car art, a Red Dead board game and more...

The Rockstar collection of PlayStation 2 Classics on PSN adds two more chapters from the Grand Theft Auto series today, with both Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories (USA / Europe) and Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories (USA / Europe) now available for download on the PlayStation Store.

If you missed one of these two Stories when they first came out, or are ready to revisit Toni Cipriani's '98 rise to glory and Victor Vance's '84 tale of Vice - you can now pull them down digitally to your PS3.
 
Liberty City Stories and Vice City Stories are available for $9.99 / €9.99 / £7.99 each. Keep an eye out here on the Newswire for announcements on the future availability of other classic PS2 Rockstar titles to come...

Red Hook Crit 2013: Round One Recap

Posted on April 3 2013, 11:12am | Author: R* Y | Filed Under: Rockstar

It was an epic night of cycling action this past Saturday in Brooklyn in the kickoff to the 2013 Red Hook Crit Championship Series. Cheers to the estimated 8,000 spectators who flooded to the Brooklyn Cruise Terminal to watch some serious competition in the evening crit. With the top ten racers all finishing within three seconds of each other, cycling fans were witness to a genuine nail biter. Our congratulations to the first place winner of Saturday's Red Hook leg - New York's own Neil Bezdek with a time of 41:32.31. Already a two-time winner and favorite from the beginning, Bezdek rode consistently, staying in the lead pack for most of the race. During a tough final hairpin turn, Bezdek made a move for first and never looked back - finishing three or four bike lengths ahead of the competition. In second and third were Evan Murphy and Walton Brush, crossing the finish line at 41:33.02 and 41:33.68, respectively.

For the full rundown of the first leg of the Crit, read on after the jump...
