Why didn't they just confirm the Platforms?

I think it's pretty clear the platforms are xbox, ps3 and pc. I just want to know whether the pc will come at the same time as consoles as it is doing for Max Payne 3.

Didn't they confirm that it'll be avaliable for PlayStation 3?

I guess they can't announce anything until legally its 100% confirmed on their end. I'd imagine there's a lot of hoops that need jumping through before it can be put onto any platform.

What do you expect? A Grand Theft Auto for Wii U? Or for PS Vita?

 

It's kinda obvious that it will come to X360, PS3 and PC - after some months, I think.

are you talking about that placeholders ? or because it's clearly obvious that GTA V is coming out for the 3 platforms ?

It'd be a dick move if it turned out to be a timed PS3 exclusive even for a few months. R* would most certainly get struck over the knuckles from angry 360 players.

Why are angry X360 players more important than angry PC gamers? confused.gif

Of 10 GTA V copies, 5 will be sold on PS3, 4 on PC and 1 on X360.

So it's dangerous to alienate PC gamers in 2012. Cause PC games are selling better than X360 games. It's not 2008 anymore.

 

It's not fanboyism, but analytical conclusion.

You are the biggest fanboy on this forum. (probably responsible for starting most of the PC vs. console wars on GTAF)

 

"analytical conclusion"? You just pulled those numbers straight out of your ass so why is it so hard to do so with your head?

Butthurt Xbox fanboys just can't accept the truth.

 

Alan Wake.

In early February Remedy reported AW was 1 mln copies sold.

In mid-April that number was 2 mln.

 

So PC version did 1 mln only in 2 month while X360 version did 1 mln in 21 months. orly.gif

And that's your precious exclusive shooter. GTA V is multiplatform with majority of fan base on PC and PS consoles.

 

Heck the reason people were buying GTA 4 for X360 - "forever exclusive DLC for X360".

That won't fly anymore.

For one: source/link for your "Of 10 GTA V copies, 5 will be sold on PS3, 4 on PC and 1 on X360..." quote if you want to have any credibility

 

For two: Who gives a f*ck about who's playing GTAV on what consoles? Only females and feminine guys value what everyone else gets over their own preferences. At the end of the day, I'll play GTAV like everyone else. I bought a 360 because I don't play enough video games to waste money on a gaming PC.

 

For three: f*cks given about GTAV > f*cks given about Alan Wake

Well, its very obvious that GTA V is current-gen game so why even bother confirming that? its not like many people are asking them for confirmation or anything, its obviously a current-gen title and pretty much everyone knows that

What in the hell are you talking about numb nuts? You quote a portion of my post to mislead people.

 

My full quote "I bought a 360 because I don't play enough video games to waste money on a gaming PC."

 

Yes, when GTA is pretty much the only game I play (and only do so over my winter and summer breaks when I'm not out), it's a waste of money to dish out the money for a gaming PC for that one game. Now stop trying to look like a hot shot.

 

*Gaming PC's are far superior, but not worth it if you play mainly just one game.

Numb nuts? Hotshot? I have to warn you that you come off as silly when you talk like that.

 

This is a muliplatform environment and as such derogatory statements are out of place, no matter how you word them. PC is not OK for you? Fine, but labeling it as a waste is just not nice. I happen to have more or less the same opinion about consoles, the part about not being worth to own one just to play one game as many people were baited into GTAIV on xbox (being the cheaper alternative), but I tend to keep it for my self, for obvious reasons.

 

Not to mention all the price point misconceptions being dragged out on a regular basis.

Your knee-jerk defense for your preferred console (PC in your case) has led you to misinterpret my earlier post...It would certainly be waste for me, but I wasn't referring to others. That was one of the few points I was making when calling out Street Mix for his BS post.

 

I was exposed to the benefits of the PC when my gaming phase had mostly passed (apart from GTA). If it ain't broke don't fix it.

Basically, they are leaving it up in the air because they don't want to announce the Wii U games yet. Platform lists will be announced at or around E3, after other Wii U games are spoken of.

You're going to be proven wrong again, just like how you failed in your belief of Washington being the setting of GTA V after the reveal of the official logo. Your words were marked, but went dead!

Alan Wake was released on the same day as Red Dead Redemption. That's why the console sales suffered.

PC never got RDR right? Well, that would explain why PC sales were higher in this situation. tounge2.gif

The Alan Wake PC didn't have a [new] Rockstar Game to compete with. If Remedy had pushed back Alan Wake a month or two, the console sales would have been a lot better.

 

Release day hype contributes a lot more to the sales of the game than you would think. Also, they marketed AW at the same time that Rockstar was marketing RDR. More people paid attention to RDR. If they had waited a month or two, they would have made a much bigger impression on console gamers than they did, as more people would have seen the AW adverts.

 

Just because one game did better on PC doesn't mean that every game does better on PC. (AW isn't even a Rockstar game, so this whole thing is pointless in the first place)

BF games. ALL.

Fallout 3 and NV.

Mafia 2.

Portal 2 (outsold both consoles).

Deus Ex 3.

MP games.

etc.

 

Yeah, one game... dozingoff.gif

 

Consoles are leading only in retarded shooters like Syndicate, Bulletstorm, Homefront and go on.

Back on topic - well they generally told us nothing right?

 

The gave us some nice visuals about how it will look and feel, maybe a hint about a main character's rough background (although we can't even be sure how prominent the narrator will actually be).

 

The didn't give us a release date either. The could have told us a lot more, but I expect it is a deliberate control of information release. Unless we hear something very soon (in my mind that is next week), we will hear nothing until after Max Payne because they will focus 100% on that.

 

I don't think V will be even a time exclusive. It's too big a franchise now, and they would shoot themselves in the foot sales wise. PS and Xbox are near certainties. PC is likely to follow, but the timing is less certain. They are likely to avoid confirming it is in existance in the hope people will buy it on the console and the PC. Not a strategy I agree with, but it seems to be their current thinking for open world games.

You could say that GTA III and GTA: Vice City on the Xbox were far superior compared to their PC counterparts. The only advantage GTA III PC had over the Xbox version was modding, though there are ways you can mod the GTA III Xbox Version.

Touché on the fact I was wrong about the location, but I was working without any possible assumptions there. With the consoles on the other hand, there is no reason for them not to do it.

 

GTA V will be coming out either this fall or next spring. Wii U is likely to be announced at e3 to come out this year sometime. Wii U is at least, if not more powerful than current generation of consoles. It wouldn't be the first time Rockstar has put there last game of the generation on a nextgen console that was released early (See: GTA2 for Dreamcast). It wont take away from the sales to Xbots, PSTools, and PC Elitists (AKA fanboys that only pull for one system and will never try another one).

 

And no, I'm not a Nintendrone, I'm just pointing out the obvious to anyone that bothers to look.

 

Does this mean it will 100% happen? No... But Rockstar has said they like Nintendo, Nintendo has said they like Rockstar, this is a perfect opportunity.

That's a terrible example. You're essentially comparing a new and unproven franchise, debuting on the same day as one of this generation's biggest titles(RDR), to an established and well received franchise. Of course it sold faster on the PC.

There's this news, too: http://www.computerandvideogames.com/30802...ited-for-wii-u/

 

A quote:

 

"Again we haven't announced any support for it but obviously we have a great relationship with Nintendo, and we will be looking at the Wii U," he told VentureBeat.

 

At that time, he said that they will be looking at the Wii U, which means that, at that moment, no Wii U development was ongoing. Given that GTA V has been in development since possibly 2009, we have the Wii U very late to have a dedicated development for its own, but for a port, maybe. However, Take2 said that they're not interested in Wii U ports, too. (Take 2 not interested in Wii U ports).

The day before V was officially announced, they said they had nothing to announce about GTA too. Just because they aren't ready to announce something doesn't mean they haven't done it. There is really nothing concrete in your link except that Take-Two has a good relationship with Nintendo and that Take-Two owns Rockstar.

Well, that was Rockstar, and their behavior before announcing GTA V, was a preparation for a big surprise for GTA players. They were dealing with a fanbase, so it's not correct to compare this to Take2's official business statements about their relationship with other companies or their future plans. If they had something in development for Wii U at that time, they wouldn't have said that they will be looking into it, bur rather they would have said that they have plans for it, but they're not ready to announce them, or they would have kept silent regarding their situation with Wii U development. All they had to do, was to say that they have a good relationship with Nintendo, and they're excited about Wii U.

When it comes to R*, timed exclusives are never off the table. Maybe this time around Sony wants to get a revenge over EFLC.

I don't see that happening. EFLC was different because it was announced as a 360 exclusive. It's been almost 6 months since GTA V was announced and people are already pre-ordering including on 360. It'd be a dick move if it turned out to be a timed PS3 exclusive even for a few months. R* would most certainly get struck over the knuckles from angry 360 players.

 

Timed PS3 DLC I could see as a possibility, but not the full game.

Microsofts rules mean that any game or content released on PS3 first is banned from the Xbox.

That is why there is no PS3 exclusives going to Xbox or DLC content available on PS3 first.
