But if release date was the same for PC and consoles, I would choose PC.

Which is exactly why it will be released on the consoles first, and a while later on PC. People will buy it for their favorite console because they can't wait for a PC release, which most likely hasn't even been announced at that point, and end up buying the PC version for the perdier graphics and modifications at a later date. Two copies sold. Double up on the revenue. That's how these things work.

Console then PC 3-6 months later, same as always. (Since PC will probably come out later.)

I will be happily purchasing the XBOX 360 and PC versions of the game, due to the PS3 version always complete and utter horse excrement.

Actually, GTA is the only game i can play on consoles except skate. I can't deal with the analog sticks. I'm getting gta V for pc, first, then maybe ps3. We'll see

Console for me. Knowing Rockstar they will give PC a bad port.

Because companies don't learn their mistakes, because Max Payne 3 was their best PC game ever in terms of optimisation. I'm quite sure GTA V will follow Max Payne's steps. We'll see.

Why get it for PS3 afterwards? To play with friends, or do you have other motives?

 

Oh, and your signature is too large. smile.gif

Another person who left "I think". Seriously, unless you work for Rockstar or something, without "I think", you indirectly claimed you work for Rockstar.

 

@Freezer89 And about GTA and GTA 2 don't count for GTA, that's like saying PS2 and XBOX are no longer consoles since they're from another generation.

 

Like it or not, GTA franchise is established in October 1997 on PC. Have you ever thought of why Rockstar decided to continue to use the same IP for their 3D renditions and such, I think that's because GTA franchise has been well known enough since 1997.

I shall be purchasing the PC and XBOX 360 versions of the game.

I refuse to purchase the PS3 version due to the extremely long Install times and God Awful porting of the games due to the system's weak hardware.

I picked both because I'll be able to play it on ps3 on launch day. Im guessing pc launch will be a little later so i'll use that time to upgrade my pc. I'm sure as it stands my pc will not be able to run gta v at the settings I want not to even mention with graphic mods. Just hope it's better optimized this time. gta iv ran completely on the processor it seemed like. :-(

I voted Both.

 

Console for initial play(since they never parallel launch GTA for PC and Consoles)

 

PC for the seriously awesome mods!!

 

Offtopic.

I just realized that zzcool is the guy with all those awesome youtube videos, Good Job dude! icon14.gif Some of your videos really encouraged me to get GTA IV on PC.

thankyou smile.gif

No he didn't, he stated his opinion "I think" is a given everyone thinks, everyone has an opinion, nobodY needs to state that before each opinion, just simply state the opinion.

 

Rockstar looks to be going in a better direction in terms of PC, look at Max Payne 3. Simultaneous releases can only be beneficial.
