Do you want GTA: IV on PC?

GTA represents everything that is wrong with the gaming industry, the coarsening of culture, and the flaw inherent with appealing to the lowest common denominator.

I hope it never sees the light of day on the PC.

bogaty

what the hell? is that english ?

lol

and yes , I would LOVE to see this 10-scored game on the PC , because GTA represents everything that the other games don't have .

What! How can any game get 10/10?!

I can't believe that. He even gave the graphics when he said that there were technical issues.

Who thinks this is suspicious? Raise your hand!

I was never into GTA I honestly think that everybody is just getting head over heels over pure hype. However, I still want to see it on PC, since I might end up liking it if I tried a demo or something. Also, for all the PC-gamers who are squirming with anticipation for the PC version.hamidious

I agree, especially about the demo. I would get GTA: IV if it made improvements to the many problems with San Andreas. Which apparently it has...

Have you read my review of it?

Please explain how every single review for this game has been irrational?

IMO, GTA games belong on consoles and they have no business being played on PC. Gimmicky, arcadish gameplay with which I get bored in a couple of hours. I was getting kicks from shooting the bystanders and driving over pedestrians for maybe the whole 30 min, then it got old.

Installed Vice City a couple of years ago and uninstalled the same day without prejudice.From screens and trailers GTA4 looks like it has 4-year old graphics. The whole CRIME-IS-COOL theme may appeal to kids, I'm a bit too old for that stuff.

So the reviewers, (ign, gametrailers) who say the game is a tehnical marvel because it is so big so detailed and it runs smootly and looks very good at the same time , are either blind or liers.

lol

Game reviewers have no qualms about lieing or being biased, why should it be different in this case? most of them are not fans, just publishers' whores or plugs.

I judge games' looks by the PC standard - the only standard appropriate for this forum. It looks similar to what i was getting on my PC 4 years ago.

This game enjoys the biggest hype I've ever seen. Halo has been dethroned

As a critic I take offence to that. I hope you don't think that I am a "fan boy" or a "N00b" etc.

Have you read some of my stuff lately?

I would like to here you feedback on my work!!

If you don't understand why GTA4's graphics are toned down at the close-up level, due to the scale of the game, then you're an even bigger idiot.

Why can't you accept there must be something quite good about this game?

sorry, what does that mean? (I think i know but could you elaborate , please)

I can accept there must be a good story in this game. I don't think the reviews lie about the quality of the story here cause majority of console gamers usually don't give a poop about story so there was in fact no reason to lie about it

sorry, what does that mean? (I think i know but could you elaborate , please)kpsting

First person shooter games and driving games can have better have graphics because there is less going on. GTA can't keep up with those standards because there is more of it. It's not that big of a conundrum.

You've got this stereotyped image of console gamers who just wanna "own noobs lol" haven't you. I play mostly PC games, but sometimes console games and the story of most games is easily one of the most important aspects.

I've stickied this topic since it's the best fitting topic for a game that isn't out on the PC yet and because the rest of the forum is out of hand with GTA topics...

BL, if you have a moment can you put up this info in your first post from Lgy http://www.gamespot.com/pages/forums/show_msgs.php?topic_id=26365737 and give him credit please? Thanks :)

Personally...?

I could care less...never liked the other ones.

Who cares if it's the second coming for consolers....it's a console game and thats where it should stay.

I' am a PC gamer through and through and I have no clue why my fellow PC gamers are suggesting it shouldn't come to PC. If they don't like it don't buy it... simple. Don't deny our desires of having GTA4 on PC. Also your comment about GTA being a console game couldn't be more wrong. GTA:SA is widely seen as being superior on PC than it was on the PS2 version.

GTA4 on PC will be amazing. Even more so if they release any mod tools with it (but modders typically find ways to implement some mods nonetheless).

Please release GTA4 on PC rockstar.

even more suspicious GS changing their score to 10 from 9.5naval

They didn't change it, the review never went up until after the gameplay marathon started. It was just a random glitch that happens sometimes - a random score next to a game that hasn't been reviewed yet.

yes, I want GTA4 on the PC :D

please R* release it and add the extra downloadable content from the consoles also :P :D

Wow, I couldn't agree more. I'm surprised and a little angry that so many PC gamers here seem to "hate" GTA IV. GTA IV would be so much better on the PC IMO and it should come to PC.

Who's denying you anything? We're just saying we don't care either way. It'll probably come anyway so there's nothing for you to fear. But any game released for a console is a console game until it comes out for the PC. Then only it becomes a multi-platform game. GTA:SA being superior on PC doesn't nullify the fact that it came out for consoles first, so it's a console original. It hurts my PC pride when some console-using wiseass says, "You'll probably get it on your PCs 6 months after we do, with all your little mods. You should get used to that by now." We always have to play second fiddle to consoles, it's insulting. Crysis stayed true to the PC and came out for us first( though it wasn't all that exciting for me), thus i hold it in high regards. If you ask me, it's all about being the first choice.

since i dont have a console, and i dont plan on buying a console, i hope that this game comes to the PC. plus i loved san andreas.

One of B_L's wet dreams has come true. A sticky on PC forums.artur79

Thats just one! Don't forget about my relationship with Alyx! Now I have to think of something to get her for her birthday.

Haha, totally agree bro. I haven't watched any videos, read any reviews, etc. I want to be totally fresh when I first play the game... I vow to not play the game until I can in its entirety :)

it MUST come on the PC also, GTA was allways better on the PC. It sucks that we have to wait a lot for it but the game is worth it :)

The consolation is that it will look and perform way better on the PC then on consoles :)

[QUOTE="Kuyt19"]I don't care whether it comes to PC or not. I played SA and VC. They were long, boring and repetitive. Besides, i don't care if RPGs are made console exclusive. I just don't like FPS games being only on consoles, it's an insult to PC gamers. Grrrrrrr.....Kuyt19

Gears of War and Assassins Creed are two of the most repetitive games in recent history and you gave those 8.5's. COD 4 doesnt have much variety either and you gave it a 9.5.

Whatever i said is strictly my opinion only. I'm not trying to shove it down your throat. And what you've said is your opinion and i'm not gonna argue. But i still say GTA is boring and COD 4 deserves a 9.5 rating. So there.....

You cant have an opinion on whether a game is repetitive. Gears of War is repetitive, its a fact. You spend 95% of the game doing the same thing.

Yeah, whatever makes you sleep at night.

I knew you wouldnt continue the debate. My previous reply is irrefutable.

If GTA had the same missions over and over again like Assassins Creed you might have liked it.

It did, and i didn't like it. What i'm trying to say is," Be a little more open-minded." Some like GTA, some don't. There are people who love Assassin's Creed while others hate it. Not everybody's gonna agree with your choice of games. But that doesn't mean your choices are bad. C'mon man, when are you gonna wake up and realize the world doesn't revolve around you?

This is the last time i'm replying to your posts. It's a waste of time for both you and me.

Again, saying a game is repetive is not an opinion.

Again, GTA has more variety than any other action game. Fact.

My open mindedness that allows me to enjoy a huge variety of games makes me annoyed by close minded people who only like a few games. If its good then I'll enjoy it.
