GTA IV on PC - Online Petition

So, my friend opened this petition because he's a hardcore PC gamer and of course, he wants GTA IV for PC ASAP. He said that GTA:VC came to PC faster because of the petition too. And he also said that he needs 20 000 votes. So, please sign this. Thank you.

Ill sign it...but I dont see much of a point....like all other GTA games it will end up on the PC eventually.cobrax25

Yea, really. Petitions don't do anything. Sorry. 20,000 people is just about nothing. Maybe if you get 1 or 2 million, then there's a slight chance you'll get noticed.

It will make its way there in time. Just be patient.Wasdie

Agreed, petitions like these never really add anything to an already eventuality.

ok i think that i should add that i also think it will eventually come to PC, but y do we think that, is it because of what happend with the previous GTA's , u know the GTA Stories never came to PC, what id that they decided to follow the path of only consoles ?

It'll get here.Manly-manly-man

guys why r u so confident that it will come to the PC, u know offcourse that it have a whole new engine, & now that the Console War is at it's peek , y would they bother to care about PC . Shatilov

Because

1. It has always come out to PC (albeit, later on after they've tweaked it so it isn't a direct port).

2. They don't care about console wars that take place, because here's the thing...if they release it for PC as well, all the people who will only buy it for PC like myself included, will give them more revenue from the PC market. It's called money, and they will get it because of the GTA name alone. Why dismiss the market when you know it will sell?

Oh, I don't know, maybe it has something to do with literally every single new GTA release has come to the PC. GTA Stories didn't come to the PC because it wasn't a new Grand Theft Auto. We're only using common sense. That's like saying "omg, how do we know that the next unreal tournament will come to the pc?".

because developers care more about making money than who wins the console war.

True, but if you mention UT, there was a UT that never came to the PC, liandri conflict or something like that, i think it was only for the xbox back in those days. Neither we can mention CoD because the third installment didn't show up in the PC. Kinda weird if you ask me why infinity ward jumped CoD 3 on the PC, now we will have CoD, CoD:UO, CoD 2 and CoD 4.

So if you'll use common sense that GTA IV is coming to the PC, is good, I do hope so 'cause is a terrific game, but maybe you'll can be wrong too.

has there ever been a major GTA game that didn't come out for PC?

im sure it will come to PC. with some additional features.

im getting a PS3 next year so its not a big deal if it dont come to PC. the console versions are more fun.

Well, first off, Infinity Ward did not develop CoD3. That is why it did not come out on the PC. Same reason that the PC got Pacific Assaut vs. Rising Sun and we got CoD vs CoD: Big Red One.

As for Unreal Tournament, we did not get The Lilandri Conflict or Unreal Championship, because Unreal Tournament 2003 was already under development for the PC.

The Stories franchises did not come to the PC or the 360, because to translate them from the PSP code to either platform would not of been practical. Also to add any benefit to them would of cost a lot of time and investment that was already being put towards GTA IV. The franchise started on the PC in 1997 with the first GTA game and it will continue to come out on the PC with GTA IV. The decision to delay release on the PC is one of economics. They get more money from the console version than the PC version. Plain and simple.

if 1 or 2 million will be noticed then ill be the 1st in 1 or 2 million will be making a petition and my petition will be GTA 4 on PC should be release this year..:D

Unlikely unfortunately, as while it would be nice to see it released quicker, they will release it for the PC at the speed its released at.

Also you'd be far more effective trying to lobby in the real world, maybe get a group of friends then lobby at the local headquarters of the company etc.

i don't know mate.this was stupid. i shouldn't open this topic. we will all play gta4 someday no matter what. and the platform doesn't matter too. we will play it. so we should be happy. :D

Gee. Rockstar better be shaking in their booties.
If they don't port everything to PC right now they'll have to deal with a whole 4 pages of "signatures" listed in some database.
