GamesRadar Treasure Hunt - OFFICIAL THREAD

NOTE: The contest is over! Congratulations to the winner! And thanks to all who participated.

This is the official thread for GamesRadar's GTA IV Treasure Hunt. Remember - in order to win, you must post the URLs here as well as e-mail them to us at iwonthegtacontest@gamesradar.com. You can also use this thread to share information - but be careful - only one person will win, and it's whoever finds all 20 pieces first!

THE OFFICIAL CONTEST INSTRUCTIONS AND RULES!

Read the rules VERY CAREFULLY! In order to win, you MUST both e-mail the address provided and post here with ALL 20 LINKS! That includes the contest announcement article itself, because it contains the first treasure piece! Also, you must be at least 17, as GTA IV is an M rated game. NOTE: The contest is open to US residents only - sincere apologies for any confusion regarding this rule.

Don't just save the images - it's the URLs TO THE PAGES ON THE SITE WHERE THE IMAGES ARE HIDDEN that you'll need to claim your prize! That's right, not the URL to the image itself!

Good luck everyone! In time, we may post more clues here - so check back often!

Friday, April 18 - HINTS TIME!


These are vague, but if no one gets them all, we'll get more specific in time....

-Think carefully about what each of the words in the clues mean - we considered our choice of words very carefully!

-The site is big - there are all kinds of places they could be hidden. If you're running out of places to look, read the contest article again and consider what it says...

Five! Oh bugga. I thought i was doing brilliantly with two. It seems so hopeless now. I guess my ps2, San Andreas, and 12 inch tube tv will have to suffice... is it working gamesradar? have u been touched by my story and decided to give the prize to me? no? whatever, i didnt want those stupid prizes anyway! next gen isnt always better ya' know. ex. I'd take a 69 camaro over an 09 anyday.

> To bad this isn't open to Canadian residents

Thank you for telling me that. I would have wasted a **** load of time looking for them, mainly because I never read the rules :P
