No PC Version of GTA V At Launch: Rockstar
Our suspicions from a pre-order poster leak earlier this week are confirmed, there won't be a PC version of GTA V any time soon. The Spring 2013 launch date given by Rockstar only includes versions for the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 platforms. Pre-orders for the game will begin next week, starting Monday. When Rockstar posted its pre-order announcement, everyone in the comments section had one question on their minds - will there be a PC version? This prompted Rockstar to respond in a comment, and not update the actual news article (adding insult to injury), that there won't be a PC version any time soon.

Maybe I'll give in, and buy a $99 Xbox after all. PC platform is too much investment for too little returns (choice of games).

Ugh that's just ridiculous, the girl's phone looks like an iPhone!
What is this blasphemy? A TPU top-dog giving in to the Xbox. Stand true! |

If Kurt Cobain still lives, he'll smash his PC and do a parody of his won song titled "Smells Like Porting Spirit".

Really wish they would put out RDR on PC also.
Got it on the PS3 and Xbox 360, would buy it again for the PC. |

I'm not one to talk though, since I have an Xbox and ps3. But I barely touch my Xbox anymore and my ps3 sees occasion use. It's all just a great big "eh!" On topic, I've never ever played the GTA games! So I'm not that much at a loss here

So they are saying its time to boycott them? That is all I read, "please boycott us, we are lame and have daddy issues and a blubbery vag."

I don't mind waiting for them to port as long it its done well. Plenty of good PC titles out now and coming soon. Rockstar takes a while but then again in the past they ended up not doing that good of a job. GTA4 was sweet though if you had a nice rig which most of us do.

I just don't understand how the game will 'advance' in fidelity at all. GTA 4 didn't run all that well on any platform when it launched... now they're making another one on the static hardware of the consoles, they've got no real room for extra complexity in their game.
Either they're going to introduce some real large changes to gameplay/story, or they're going to get a stale expansion-pack-like release. And of course, there's still a chance it will be stale or bad even if they innovate quite a bit

You guys are forgetting the fact that Rockstar usually does horrid PC ports. GTAIV is probably one of the only titles you need a quad core to run. Yes you can load it with less but playable...lol.
Plus most likely it won't look polished on PC. Low res console textures and filled with glitches. It takes time for fans to create high res packs to finally bring it up to the polish it should have on PC. Sure it will look better than console but not truly what PC is capable of. Quote:

I have more fingers and toe's then there are games on PC that's not on console that makes it worth buying anymore PC hardware... It's been a long time coming and I see the end of actual PC gaming...it wont be but a year or two before Tablet specs catch up enough for games worth playing... Being tied to a desk or even a couch for consoles is coming to an end methinks... |

Should not they make first the PC version with kick ass graphics, than convert it down to Consoles? It is like from good picture possible to make good down-converted picture, but making good picture from crap is impossible.
Why do not they also count, today laptops are equipped with minimum HD4000, the better ones with 7660G graphics, than anyone could run GTA 5 on their laptops and they could sell bunch of copies. |

What a bunch of arrogant cocks...
Although, PS3 and X360 would most likely have a much larger market then PC for this game (like most games). I hope I don't have to wait for a year like I did with GTAIV before they released a PC version.
