GTA5 for PC coming few months after console releases

Posted by Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 11/20/2012 08:40 AM | 36 comment(s) ]

A PC version of GTA 5 will follow several months after the launch of the console releases. The console versions are expected in Spring 2013, so perhaps we can expect the PC version by Summer 2013. GTAForums, a community dedicated to everything GTA, has some more details on GTA V thanks to a recent Q&A session with an Italian website.

There is no lead platform for GTA V: Rockstar is developing the game for both PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 at the same time.

The PC version of GTA V is expected a few months after the console release.

Grand Theft Auto V's graphics raise the bar for the current-gen consoles, providing amazing in-game visual performances.

The GTA V demo currently possesses a lot of alias--which will, of course, be fixed before the game's release--and the frame rate wasn't perfectly executed, mirroring Rockstar's demo version of GTA IV five years ago.

Players cannot switch between the game's three main characters if they are in free-roam mode and are wanted by the police. However it's stated that Rockstar is still working on this particular feature, so it may be implemented and changed.

There will be multiple endings for GTA V.

The game's story arc is estimated at roughly 25-30 hours of play time.

Do you have link please Hilbert? because i am praying for a PC version, but it was only up for consideration yesterday.

The prospects of a PC version of GTA 5 appear to be in a terrifying state of flux. After seeming to be a dead cert earlier this year, doubts emerged when the game’s posters confirmed only a console release. Now asked directly about a PC version by IGN, Rockstar’s Dan Houser would no more commit to that platform than he would Wii U.

A potential PC version is only “up for consideration,” he said. “That’s all I can give you. The main thing is we are not… we are a third-party publisher. We’re not Nintendo, we’re not Sony, we’re not Microsoft. We love all of them in different ways. But we can do what we want wherever there’s the appropriate business opportunity and chance to find a market.”

So, uh, does that mean there’s an appropriate business opportunity on PC, then? Houser didn’t say. He did however say that the current geriatric generation of creaking console hardware is ample enough to see out their creative intentions.

“Some other people talk about the limitations of the hardware. We don’t feel there are that many limitations. We feel we can do some very impressive stuff and do it for a large audience. This felt like the way… There’ll be a much larger audience on PS3 than there will be on PS4.”

Erp. What worrying words. Here’s hoping Houser’s just being cagey.

I hope you're right, but I wouldn't count on it based on a dubious translation. Every bit of info I've seen on the web has been very non-commital regarding a pc port.

It's a standard protocol for this franchise. Interesting when it will out for PC? Could be 1 month, but could be 6.

Lol

GTA IV ran like piss for me too, even when updated with the patches.

It did not even run in SLI since I tried a single GTX 580 as well as both in SLI. No difference at all in performance.

One can only hope GTA 5 it runs half decent...

Nope, probably I played with better "tool". I can't remember when I started the game, but I'm sure that not at launch. I knew about that funny bug. :D
