[QUOTE=RockmanYoshi;38258213]I do, I just played it yesterday.[/QUOTE] It was sarcasm if you couldn't tell by the first statement, a shitload of people still play it, obviously.
[QUOTE=mysteryman;38255348] "it's not on my preferred platform, GAME AUTOMATICALLY SUCKS 0/10" God you guys are whiners. I've been a long term fanboy fan of the series fromthe very start, i grew up playing them on consoles and moved over to pc's. The GTA's always feel more natural on console anyway with the controller scheme and the only thing that the pc has over that is superior graphics. Now though you can hook a controller up to pc's and play it more comfotably but in the mean time, i'm still fine with playing it on PS3. GTA is worth it.[/QUOTE] Yes, heaven forbid some of us have preferred platforms for whatever reason...besides he didn't say it sucked, he just said he wasn't buying it because it wasn't on his platform of choice. You're the one spazzing out. Relax a bit. Just because some of us don't buy GTA V on launch because the PC port is months away doesn't mean the world's going to come to a grinding halt. You don't need to 'defend' the series from such players. [QUOTE=JustExtreme;38254987]There are a few mods that help with that issue :P[/QUOTE] PM me the most reliable one that supports analog input. I need it because reasons.
Bah, I would get this for my PS3, but every single one of Rockstars PS3-games have been inferior ports of the Xbox-version. GTA IV and RDR are the most visible examples of this, don't know about Max Payne 3.
[QUOTE=deggie;38253818]but I already preordered it for PC :( guess I got my hopes up in vain [img]http://i.imgur.com/amsBl.png[/img][/QUOTE] This is why you don't preorder before the developer even announces the games release date.
[QUOTE=HendoV2;38249643]are you fucking kidding me[/QUOTE] No there will be PC version.
Ah fuck off. Probably won't even have the PC version in mind until release, then they'll gather around and go Say I if you want to spend time porting this to PC. The Nays have it, moving on.

No matter how much you don't like the game, you can't deny they don't work very hard on their games, the quality is always amazing.
[QUOTE=The Vman;38259974][i]"Complaining about a company potentially abandoning thousands of people who would gladly buy the game but only own a PC and don't want to shell out 300 dollars for an Xbox or PS3?" "WOW YOU GUYS ARE A BUNCH OF WHINERS"[/i][/QUOTE] This is the outline of what I've seen so far. If there's no announcement of any game for any popular platform by any company, there will be some negative backlash. It'll vary in the amount of people who care depending how popular the game is, in this example the most hyped game by many in years. It's been blown out of proportion by spoiled kids who don't know the principals of money, or just generally ignorant people who want to cause arguments for no reason. In the long run, I really don't know if this game will live up to people's increasingly high expectations.
[QUOTE=RosettaStoned;38251344]You people are absolutely ridiculous. You're all going to end up buying it anyway. Also, I've always found GTA controls to work better on consoles.[/QUOTE] I for one will not buy this. I'm probably just gonna rent it and buy it once it goes on pc.
Prepare for shitty ports from 7 year old ancient technology!

"WOW YOU GUYS ARE A BUNCH OF WHINERS"[/i] [/QUOTE] If most of the sales are going to be for console, then it isn't that unreasonable that they wait and try and make a better product. Complaining about not having a current gen console to play it on is like complaining about having to buy a TV/monitor to play it with.
So, GTA V will be just another shitty port like GTA IV? Not optimized or anything?
[QUOTE=FuzzyPoop;38257634]It's not like there's a huge community for GTA or anything. GTA:SA was such a failure after all, shows how much of a waste of time developing a good PC version is, who even plays that anymore ?[/QUOTE] Check out MTA:SA and SA-MP [editline]31st October 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=FuzzyPoop;38258804]It was sarcasm if you couldn't tell by the first statement, a shitload of people still play it, obviously.[/QUOTE] [IMG]http://i.telegraph.co.uk/multimedia/archive/01559/sarc_1559744c.jpg[/IMG]
"a game company isnt doing something i want them to do !!!!!" jesus christ guys, they cant just click their fingers and its done if they do port it, look at the spectacular job they did on Max Payne - you'd rather wait a few months for such a good port rather than their GTAIV port, wouldn't you.
I doubt they wouldn't port it because they would lose out on a LOT of sales.
[QUOTE=laserguided;38259650]This is why you don't preorder before the developer even announces the games release date.[/QUOTE] You know, I haven't paid them or anything and Komplett is a well established company in Scandinavia. It does state on Rockstars website that there is no information on when or if the PC version Will be released.

The main point of that post was pointing out how most of you are talking: "THIS GAME IS INSTANTLY HORRIBLE JUST BECAUSE IT'S NOT ON MY PREFERRED PLATFORM" You know nothing about the game other than it's GTA, in Los Santos and takes place in current day. We know almost nothing at all about it and most of you are deeming the game a pile of shit because its not on PC. That is incredibly immature.

It really sucks to find out that your most hyped sequel to your favorite game franchise is being made on 7 year old hardware.
Is that Yvonne Strahovski? [t]http://media.t3.com/img/resized/gt/xl_GTA-V-Release-624.jpg[/t] [t]http://top100chicks.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/053-yvonne-strahovski.jpg[/t] Pardon the off-topicness but this is the first time I've seen that cover art and it's a pretty odd resemblance IMO.
[QUOTE=Uberpro;38262037]I'd say the reactions here are pretty justified.

[QUOTE=Uberpro;38262037]I'd say the reactions here are pretty justified. It really sucks to find out that your most hyped sequel to your favorite game franchise is being made on 7 year old hardware.[/QUOTE] No, it's not justifiable to become a 6 year old and go "WELL I DIDN'T WANT TO PLAY YOUR SHITTY HORRIBLE GAME ANYWAY, WHATEVER". It's justifiable to be disappointed. I'm disappointed myself at the lack of a pc version at launch, but i'm not being a child about it and i will still buy the game because Grand Theft Auto's were great fun no matter the platform. Even gta IV on the pc was great to play despite the bad port.
There'll be a PC version just like there was with every other GTA game, released about 6 months down the line. They never announce them beforehand since I guess the fallout from 'no pc version yet? :(' is easier to deal with than 'WE HAVE TO WAIT 6 MONTHS?'. Either way there will be one (and if there isn't I'll throw the first molotov into rockstar HQ myself, but I'll buy the 360 version then the PC version when it comes out so I get the best of both worlds.

It really sucks to find out that your most hyped sequel to your favorite game franchise is being made on 7 year old hardware.[/QUOTE] what do you mean 'find out'? of course it's going to be on the consoles, the GTA games have budgets of tens of millions of dollars so sitting on the game until next gen consoles are released or even worse releasing it on PC only ([b]the amount of people buying games on PC is a few orders of magnitude below the people buying games on consoles[/b]) is fucking retarded and not commercially viable in the slightest (also it probably costs less to port the game than keep another totally seperate codebase for the PC version while the game's in development, not to mention them being able to make sure that the cost of porting it won't eat too much into the profits made by the console versions) [b]if you want to make a triple a game you need to release it on consoles; GTAIV on consoles sold upwards of 22 million copies while GTAIV on PC didn't even top the PC sales chart for its release week (though I'm fairly sure it still sold ~1-2million copies IIRC)[/b]
Welp, so we'll get yet another game hanging onto the lifeless outdated consoles of this generation. Way to hold the game back. I still haven't forgiven R* for the lack of pc RDR, they better not disappoint.
I admit, it's a little disappointing there wont be a PC version at release, but I have no qualms buying it on Xbox first. I love GTA and wouldn't want to miss out. My mate didn't buy IV until a month after release, due to other commitments he wanted to focus on, and he was telling me how frustrating it was, hearing about all the fun things we were doing in IV while he was stuck with SA.

A completely different studio is making V.
DS lite exclusive, suck it pc nerds
[QUOTE=Mysterious;38251396]Jesus Christ. You all act as if Rockstar just personally took a shit on each of your doorsteps. So much gun-jumping. EVERY SINGLE GTA GAME has been released on PC at some point or another. What in the blue hell makes you think that it's going to change just because a PC release hasn't been announced at launch? Now we're shunning Rockstar because every single fucking thing is not to your liking? Since when did this thread turn into the GTAForums?[/QUOTE] This isn't about GTA not releasing on PC, most people know it will. The problem is that Rockstar won't fucking learn.
[QUOTE=proch;38265691]This isn't about GTA not releasing on PC, most people know it will.

You said it yourself, the game is coming, rockstar focuses on the MOST POPULAR platforms first.
