This is a list of in-game websites accessible on the Internet in Grand Theft Auto IV, The Lost and Damned, and The Ballad of Gay Tony. These are not real websites but most of the domains are owned by Rockstar Games and redirects to the official GTA IV website in real life.

The following links should not lead to the actual websites, but wikipedia articles on that topic.

Interactive Sites

Gameplay-effecting sites

The most important websites in the game consist of emails (used during main and side missions from time to time) and online dating (where Niko can meet three possible girlfriends).

New Sources and other useful information

The game's traditional news websites (discounting LCPD's website and the secret blog) actually change as the story progresses, many of their news articles documenting missions Niko does in the game.

Other Sites

Social Networking

Niko is unable to use social networking sites, only communicating through his standard email. These are mostly meant as comedy pieces, but surfing them carefully enough reveals information about two characters Niko eventually meets, Eddie Low and Alexandra Chilton.

Company, online shopping and other professional websites

Guide, community or subculture oriented websites

bulimialovers.com - Website advocating bulimia nervosa

Possible scam websites

Niko's email is complete with authentic spam mail for comedic purposes, many of which redirect to some of these websites:

The Lost and Damned

These sites were added in The Lost and Damned. These websites cannot be accessed outside of this episode.

The Ballad of Gay Tony

These sites were added in The Ballad of Gay Tony. Like TLAD, these websites can only be accessed in this episode.
