shit wait.... is this NOT being released on PC ???

if so... then NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, all the infinite possibilities with mods, that's a low blow by Rockstar man... the only reason a studio doesnt release on PC is because of pirates, doesn't make sense for Rockstar to be concerned with PC piracy, they actually encouraged all the previous mods done by modding communities in prior GTA titles..... doesn't make sense

^ it MAY come to PC in late 2013 or 2014...or you might be right
either way..GTAIV was very poorly optimized so you'll likely need a high end system to run it decently

I'd be sad if it didn't come out for PC. Don't enjoy shooting games on a console.

I'll probably get it on PS3 on release date just cus I don't want to wait another 6-10 months to play it on PC.

I'll get it for console because I know more people who play it for console. But when I get a new comp will probably be in conjunction with the release date of a PC version of it

Quite interested, but only if it's on PC. It just feels.. silly.. to play games on consoles these days.

Pc gaming only makes sense if you are a serious gamer. For some one such as myself who doesn't really play video games all that often, spending $1500+ on a gaming rig just doesn't make any sense. Console games work fine for me and millions of others around the globe..

Sorry but that is an asinine statement.

It wouldn't take more than $500 to put together a system that would be at least 5X as powerful as a console. More like 10-15x, depending on the game.

10x performance for 2x the money? Yeah I think that might be a better choice. Oh and it's a fucken computer too, that you can, you know, do shit with

Damn, Rockstar sure knows how to make a trailer. I'd be willing to just watch all the cut-scenes as a film. Even though it'll be lesser graphics, I'll likely grab it for the PS3 after I finally get out of school for the summer.

sorry...PC gaming never had that much of a "value"...unless you use it for productivity as well (which the vast majority don't)

you have the remember multiplatform games are generally better optimized on the console so even if it has aging hardware it will still run comparable to PC system built 2-3 years or so after that. It helps it doesn't require API to run the games and there's not like 40 million processes running the background. Then you take first party studios like Epic Games and Naughty Dog and your jaws just drop at how much value they can still squeeze out of those things.

the majority of the population aren't hardcore enough to shell out $600+ every couple of years just to see 8x MSAA/ambient occlusion maxed out textures avg 60fps....especially if you play on average an hour a day. To them, 640p @30fps is just fine...I'm sure they rather keep that extra $600-1000 for something else. .and with the ps3 you also get blu-ray playback and doubles up as a media streamer...at $250 these days that's still a good deal.

Again, it's fucking preference. I turned my laptop on once today... That's it. What in the world am I gonna do with another computer when I hardly use the one I have? I only game for about an hour or less a day.

argueably PC gaming is a million times the value, as you never pay for games..



ahh what?

I always prefer PC or everything and for playing BF3, when i go play on the 360 with my buddies i'm at the point where its like lol.. are you kidding me, 16 player games vs 64 player, etc. etc.

however, i've always played GTA's on the console so i dont mind buying it for PS3

I'm quite happy with buying a console every 5-6 years and playing whatever comes out on it, and not have to worry about upgrading till a new console comes out. Sure it might not be the best bang for your buck or be the latest and greatest but as someone who games a few days a week it's fine.

^ As someone said, with producers like Naughty Dog, I'm totally happy with just a PS3. After playing the Uncharted series (mainly the most recent one) and seeing the graphic quality, I think GTA 5 will be just fine on there.
