Rockstar Games Social Club and/or Steam, depending on where you buy the game.

I think that it will be like Max Payne 3 on Steam, with both DRM to enjoy best of each one.

Games For Windows Live or Burst!

 

Honestly I'm so used to it by now, that it wouldn't even matter to me, go ahead it's fine, GFWL, that is.

 

I run it pretty much daily.

The game wont have any kind of cdkey or DRM checking. Rockstart will trust us to not share the game with any friend or torrent website.

Those who purchase the game in retail will most likely have to deal with one DRM only, and that is the Rockstar Games Social Club. At least, this was the case with MP3. If your purchase V through Steam, then it will have both, RGSC and Steam. There was only one Rockstar title with GfWL and that was GTA IV, so it's safe to assume they won't reintroduce it.

I can run GTAIV without the steam services running.... Just need to logon in the GFWL and RSSC sh*t... so I think they didn't use the steam DRM

Thank Listener for Xliveless! RGSC I could handle, but GfWL was the worst. :sui:

 

Cheers. :)

There is always a chance the game requires steam during installation and so on even for retail copies. Some games that have ditched older forms of DRM actually do this.

 

In GTA V's case i guess it mostly depends on whether they intend to use RGSC as actual DRM too or just as a social feature.

I'll be getting the retail version myself. I can do without Steam having to run in the background in addition to RSC. I don't need another game client chewing up resources unnecessarily.

sorry for the ignorance but what is DRM??

DRM is almost the same thing as baidu antivirus. Something annoying that should never existed.
