DlZZEE Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 Placeholder, PC version was already there since the game was announced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonp92 Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 Probably an oversight. The PC version will come though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freezer89 Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 If it's just a placeholder why did they change it from TBA to 17 Sept as OP pointed out? Either a mistake or.. yeah, a mistake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiffster Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 If it's just a placeholder why did they change it from TBA to 17 Sept as OP pointed out? Either a mistake or.. yeah, a mistake. ... Or is it... Won't that be the biggest surprise ever if the pc version is released on 17 Sep? That. Would. Be. Freakin. Awesum!!! Or maybe they meant 17 September 2014...

nigelhere9901 Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 Just a place holder, but I do think there is a possibility of them announcing the PC version on 17 Sep. If not, then the traditional way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freezer89 Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 Just a place holder, but I do think there is a possibility of them announcing the PC version on 17 Sep. If not, then the traditional way. Announcing the PC version on the same day the console versions are getting released? That seems like an absolute no-go in marketing bussiness. They will do that a few months later like in November, December. And set the release for early next year. Or even in the same year.. late December.

d3ex2 Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 This again? NO. It's just a place holder because they assume it will be out for PC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fatty Roman Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 It is a lie. They probably wont even release it on PC since only about 1% of people play Gta on PC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DlZZEE Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 It is a lie. They probably wont even release it on PC since only about 1% of people play Gta on PC. More like 14%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raavi Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 It is a lie. They probably wont even release it on PC since only about 1% of people play Gta on PC. More like 40/45%. If not more.

Andreas Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 Announcing the PC version on the same day the console versions are getting released? That seems like an absolute no-go in marketing bussiness. So you mean like it was an absolute no-go that Take-Two announced the PC version of GTA San Andreas in early September 2004, which was only a month before the initial release of the game? Really though, it's unlikely that they will announce GTAV for PC in September, but it will be certainly interesting to see how long we will have to wait for the announcement of it and what's more important: how long we will have to wait for the actual release.

dontdieb4september Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 It is a lie. They probably wont even release it on PC since only about 1% of people play Gta on PC. Cool story.. Wheres your source for 1% besides pulling it out of your ass.. I will be getting it on PS3 but no doubt it will release on PC and Rockstar will make Millions and Millions in profit from the PC release.. Not something a smart business ignores.

Johan Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 Probably just listed so they can get pre-orders for it. IGN review games, they don't sell them. Like others have stated it's just a place holder, it's been like that since around last November or so and it's still not confirmed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S1LV3R_W0LF Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 Wait this is new. IGN had TBA2013 even when the release was Spring 2013, so why the hell they changed it to September now? Honestly I doubt that happens, unless R* is changing their strategy because of Next Gen consoles, but it's weird this change out of the blue. Wondering if Rockstar isn't expecting all the pre-orders they can and when their aim is achieved if they'll make the announcement. I mean looks like that the expensive versions announced yesterday are almost all gone from everywhere, which shows the fever for GTAV, although strategically wise and being a PC player only, I think a release in the same day could make them lose a few sales, give it 2 weeks or a month.

gtagirl69 Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 IGN review games, they don't sell them. They used to through their affiliate partnership with GameStop. And they used to have a digital distribution channel, but like every other division at IGN, it was canned or sold off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adriaan Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 They also said Tommy and CJ are the main characters. And that Trevor lives in the "projects". Point being, they have a history of making things up. IGN also has articles on their website asking about a PC version, and Rockstar didn't give them an answer to indicate it's out September 17th. Having worked at IGN, it was most likely just one of the guys that slotted it across the board in the game object database. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
