Hey better late than never. But I like Rockstar since they got their start with PC games even the first GTA started on PC. They made a smart move going to consoles but they have never forgotten PCs. Each GTA that comes out gets ported to the PC but they do such a good job like better graphics and taking advantage of the advanced hardware so it works out fine for me.

Thanks guys, I needed a laugh. That was HILARIOUS. But on a serious note, when **** hits the fan like that in a forum the only sane thing to do is to just STOP. That means don't respond to the guy who is flaming. You're never going to win the argument or whatever you have in mind because emotions are out of control at that point. Less is more.

Can't wait for November :D

When one goes on a rant it usually is wise to use correct grammar. Also the excessive use of crude language during your rant makes you sound like an immature kid.

What do you mean better late then never? The newer 3D style GTA games have always taken at least 6 to 8 months to appear on the PC after the console release.

My favourite game of the franchise has to be Vice City (I still play to this day) and I'm hoping Rockstar will set the next GTA game in Vice City back in 80's.

I really like GTA and Rockstar no matter what. I'm the real big fan.

I don't mind if they release their game a bit late after consoles coz i understand their reasons and i accept it.

If not because of pirate downloaders, consoles and pc games won't have this problems.

If you and your friends are real gamers, please buy your games or don't play the game at all. You all can buy great performance pc but can't buy original games? Go die in hell..

I would play GTA IV even if it releases after 3 years.. I even play GTA III and Vice City till now..

Happy gaming everyone.. Rockstar Games Rock ! ! !

Why would someone refuse to get a console?

Hmmmm.

1. A console is similar to my PC except that it is less powerful, less capable and non-upgradeable.

2. Console games are made for kids and 'tards. Sorry, but it is true. If a game is developed for the consoles that has some appeal for the more-intelligent PC gamer, then it will be released for the PC platform and that release, these days at least, is typically superior to the console release (better visuals, extra content, improved gameplay).

3. I don't like console controllers - they feel like they were designed for someone with a few extra chromosomes.

4. I prefer not to participate in the stupidification of the species.

Ultimately, I'm also just not part of the console culture, and trust me, viewed from the outside it looks fairly ridiculous (not rediculous, as a console fan might spell it). Unemployed teenage guys standing outside in the rain for days for the privilege of plunking down $600 (at a minimum) to their corporate overlords? And I don't get the games either - Super Mega Mario something (Wasn't he the guy from Donkey Kong?), Final Fantasy XXXVII, The latest childish "Gritty" FPS (Now with extra Grit!) and HALO3 - THE GREATEST GAME OF ALL TIME AND YOU'D BETTER NOT DISAGREE WITH ME 'CAUSE ITS REALLY THE BEST EVER!



I've probably played PC games longer than you have been alive and I love my consoles. If anyone here is a "tard", it's you.
