davew2040 Posted May 30, 2005 Share Posted May 30, 2005 As far as I can tell, Rockstar doesn't even want to acknowledge the existence of the PC version of the game. All the ads, including television spots, are "COMING FOR THE XBOX ON JUNE 7TH!"... it's like they assume that PC gamers are going to buy it anyway, so why even bother? I admit, it makes me a little bit miffed. Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/193251-whys-the-xbox-get-all-the-glory/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilko Posted May 30, 2005 Share Posted May 30, 2005 I personally think it's because there is no company to pay off the developers/publishers on behalf of the PC, Sony and MS can give money to R* to get exclusives and unfair coverage, but who could do that for the PC? Noone, as PC's are comprised of different parts and aren't sold pre-made. That's the reason IMO.

SIP YEK NOD Posted May 30, 2005 Share Posted May 30, 2005 I personally think it's because there is no company to pay off the developers/publishers on behalf of the PC, Sony and MS can give money to R* to get exclusives and unfair coverage, but who could do that for the PC? Noone, as PC's are comprised of different parts and aren't sold pre-made. That's the reason IMO. not quite accurate. Nvidea often does for pc games what sony and microsoft do for console games but not to the same extent because people wont buy their hardware if there are no games to play it on, wihch is why in some games in the opening movies, the little video comes up that says "best played on Nvidia". PC gamers are smarter than console gamers, and therefore know when the next big games are coming out, we can do our research to find out if we will like a game or not. We dont need advertizments ramming the thought down our throat that we need this game. and as far as a game like san andreas goes, every pc gamer who wants to play it knows its coming. we dont need these fancy ads. the only thing the ads do is possibly get x-box gamers who have never played GTA games to take notice.

Jordan Posted May 31, 2005 Share Posted May 31, 2005 1. More Xbox copies will be sold. 2. PC gamers are in touch with everything that's coming out. Xbox gamers look at the wall and drool. You have to shake them and let them know what's going on with games. Yep.

Lethal_Sense Posted May 31, 2005 Share Posted May 31, 2005 What is this crap? PC gamers are smarter then Console gamers? I think some of you are the ones stereotyping console gamers! As a long time PC & Console gamer of 16 years i can say that console gamers are no dumber then PC gamers. My best mate is a only a console gamer & he is far from dumb. My other best mate, is only a PC gamer & hes one of the dumbest people on earth. I know that sounds horrible but its true. DO NOT go around insulting console gamers, assuming they are dumb. Wether it's on a console or PC, it's not bloody hard to stick a game in the drive & play it! Any person in this day & age knows there way around a computer. (And don't you dare nip-pick on my grammer either!)

GTA3Freak-2001 Posted May 31, 2005 Share Posted May 31, 2005 Honestly who cares if the PC version doesn't get the same advertisement glory as the Xbox version, anyone wanting the game will already have a fairly good idea of when its coming out. As for the stupid argument about which gamers are smarter, just STFU its childish and not needed.
