lol real estate... looks like you will be able to do literally everything in this game. But yeah, I need a new PC for that...

[Leesin]

Blew a load in my pants at how awesome GTA 5 is going to be.

[Vibe]

Holy cow yes yes yes, this is just too much

[[ptx]]

That multiplayer? Are they actually going towards MMO? Fucking Rockstar, i need that money for studies T_T

[Overdriven]

This is when we learn it isn't coming to pc

Just saw the bike riding...that immediately makes me want to play.

it didnt´t say it´s for pc?
 

[Overdriven]

Not yet. But then rockstar never do till late. Also if it is for PC it will be a much later release.

[Casimir]

This kinda looks so fun I want to hate it. Damn them and their good game design.

Im still sorta scared that it wont be on the PC. I dont get whats gotten in Rockstars tits in the recent years. They seem really racist towards the PC now. They said that GTA 4 wont make it on the PC, they eventually backtracked and it got there. Same thing they explained about LA Noire and that we got aswell. Also they said it about Red Dead Redemption, but that thing never did make it. It seems to me Rockstar is pretty eager to leave PCgaming, but cant still seem to find it in its heart(or wallet) to do it fully. I dont get why, have we done it so much injustice, or are they just too lazy to bother with the porting? Cause saying that PCgaming isnt profitable anymore is just plain wrong.

I think for GTA 4 they choose to go with the consoles because it's much harder to pirate a console game.  On PC it's very easy to do.

I think the other motivation for that, is the PS3 and XBOX architectures were different than a PCs, so it wasn't such a simple task to port from one to the other and still have a polished game.

Since GTA 5 is going to be on PS3 and 360, it's the same exact issues they had with GTA 4.  I think the main motivation however, is just the piracy aspect.  I personally would prefer to play it on my PC, but since I know it will probably be 6 months or longer after the PS3/360 release before it comes out on the PC, I'll end up getting it for a console.

I am pretty sure they are going to port it to pc eventually.GTA always comes out for PC.

Saw the new Gameplay video on youtube....Oh boy...it looks so delicious.I don´t really like the "3 Main characters" thing though, kinda ruins my immersion.Everything else looks really wonderful, it sounds like it will be an awesome game where you could even get lost in total sidestuff like paragliding, diving, biking or golfing

[Sagar]

 I can't forgive them for Red Dead Redemption!

You see I dont belive this. Its not new knowledge that people pirate. Its been around for atleast a decade now. Im sure publishers have gotten used to it by now. PC definately has more potential costumers then the 2 consoles, but doesnt reach significantly higher sales due to pirating. The number of illegal copies downloaded, do not show the ammout of sales they lost. Most torrenters would never buy a game they torrent anyway. Pirating doesnt take that much of the profit away. Mybe a bit, but not much.

A good example of that would be Ubisoft(ive said this stuff before btw). Many years back when DRM came a thing or something, Ubisoft pulled a massive tantrum and blamed piracy for the low sales their games had. Totally forgetting to mention that their games were quite shallow at the time. So they thought that they would now be rich as hell cause DRM was the weapon against piracy. It didnt turn out like they wanted, not even close. Still loling how they bitched about EndWar getting pirated its ass off. What the hell did they expect? That game was shallow as fuck and the only sellingpoint it ever had was that you could command your troops with your voice. Its good to hear they pulled their heads out of their arses and figured out that a good way for publishers to be rich is to publish good games(OHH, no way! ). And they have suprisingly shutted their fat corprate trapholes a bit after their recent good releases.

About Rockstar and PCs, they have been historically racist against PC ever since GTA3, and that was in 2001. Ever since that game, controls in GTA games have been extremely console-centric and terribly ported to PCs. GTA 4 actually was a step forward in that regard, with proper use of the mouse, and also because it was a graphics (and physics) flagship.
