GTAPlayer Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 Yeah man, I think it's going to show up on PC, but if it shows up it'll probably happen in 2008 or something, perhaps summer 2008. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xaozon Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 It took about 8-9 months for the previous GTA's to come for PC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bossman Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 It will definitely come to PC, there's a huge market of PC gamers out there, but it will take maybe a year or so to convert it. The consoles are always treated first before the PC, which I don't think is fair, but then again they get mods and we don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red_91 Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 I actually believe that it won't come out on PC, they will have some other GTA games probably coming out like SA Stories or something like that so I doubt it will come out on PC, but thats just my opinion.

CroScorpion Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 Every GTA was released for PC so I guess this one will, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pandora Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 I'm SURE that it will be ported to PC. As long as the game stays moddible lot's of people will buy the PC version, even if they already own the console one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of the Stories versions were released on PC, only Playstation 2 and PSP. I think it will come out, there's no reason why it shouldn't.

DareDevilX Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 GTA was started on PC and it would be great shame for Rockstar not to make GTA4 for it.... They would lost a lot of fans and stunting and modding world would be ruined.... Unless they make another gta IN GTA4 ENGINE and realese it for PC at the same time...

MrLlamaLlama Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 There's absolutely no reason why not... Rockstar haven't got much to lose, cos there'll definitely be scope for it in the market... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silberio Posted May 5, 2007 Share Posted May 5, 2007 All GTA Games (not "Stories") have been released on PC, why not GTA IV? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazza Posted May 5, 2007 Share Posted May 5, 2007 I don't really know if it will? Only 3 out of the 5 games has, and well the hardware for the game will be huge and hm..dunno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V Posted May 5, 2007 Share Posted May 5, 2007 I heard they're not going to. They lost too much money on the PC release of SA. For example, one guy actually bought the game, but then made 20 copies of it for his friends. (I think that's called piracy) We can still hope though.

Yeah, and a good PC usually pwns the shit out of consoles. And just cause some people copy doesn't mean they actually lose all their profit. I pretty sure most of us here own San Andreas for PC. Most.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DareDevilX Posted May 5, 2007 Share Posted May 5, 2007 I vought my version of SA for 2 euros that's like 3 dollars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pandora Posted May 5, 2007 Share Posted May 5, 2007 There would only be 2 ways to get it for that price: -Second hand -Illegal Dunno how you'd otherwise be able to get it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alistair Posted May 5, 2007 Share Posted May 5, 2007 They certainly are making profits on the release of GTA on ALL platforms. Jace, I agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gycu Posted May 5, 2007 Share Posted May 5, 2007 (edited) I just hope it will...Otherwise I wont play it ... But I tought that there was a pinned topic like this... Edited May 5, 2007 by Gycu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvoLuTioN Posted May 5, 2007 Share Posted May 5, 2007 It has to be released for PC !! or else ill have to wait till i get a ps3 or 360!! and tht aint gonna be soon!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balbaro Posted May 5, 2007 Share Posted May 5, 2007 (edited) Piracy has always existed, on consoles to, not only on PC, By the time GTAIV is released there is a good possibility XBOX360 and PS3 will also be cracked. In fact XBOX360 already is , with limitations... ok. Hardware is not a issue here , by the time a eventual PC version will be released, if ever, talking > a year from now, the hardware of the middle of the run PC will largely overlap the hardware of the 2 latest consoles, the XBOX360 is already starting to be outdated now. Its all a question of , what will be the costs for converting the GTAIV Engine to PC, will the PC sales outweigh the conversion costs ? With the PC version there is a big issue of hardware compatibilty , i think this is THE big difference with the consoles versions. BTW , I intent to buy a PS3, solely to play GTAIV, so i will certainly buy a PC version. PS , just found out about a Keyboard supporting the PS3, hope this keyboard, will make the game a bit more playable Edited May 5, 2007 by balbaro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pandora Posted May 5, 2007 Share Posted May 5, 2007 Cracking console games isn't that easy, and it's quite expensive (150 EUR here). So piracy for consoles is really minimum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
