No. This is not it.

Not until we have official word from Rockstar that there is indeed a PC version coming. Until then, you have sites like g2a.com trying to make a buck on the hype for a gangstah game like GTA by making you pre-order it and you wait and wait. If you get tired of waiting and want your money back, they might refund you but in all likelihood they will credit you.

They had an ad back in the summer asking for talented graphics programmers to help them bring their recent titles to PC... Fingers crossed for a Red Dead Redemption PC port aswell.

This is far too soon. It's far away and remote from Rockstar's deals since they have contracts with the console platforms. Nobody should expect a GTA5 port to PC for the near future.... You're scheduling that reserved 34.90 € CD-KEY for ~2015.


Rockstar would also let everyone months ahead know they're prepared or releasing a PC port.

Yeah, this seems too quick. Pretty sure the PC version won't be coming any time too soon.

Even if it was, I don't really see why so many people seem to prefer the PC version. Having played GTA 4 on both a console and PC, I can say it just simply plays better on the console because of the controls. Ofc if you get a console controller for your PC, problem solved...
Shooting is of course much better on PC, no question about that. But driving and moving around on foot just feels really bad on WASD compared to the analog sticks on console.

On the PC you can just use a controller as you say. What you get over the console version is higher FPS, Higher resolution, Anti-Aliasing, No ugly texture pop ins and possibly longer draw distance? You also get mods which is a huge deal! There are mods for GTA4 that make it look 10x better then GTA5 does.

Its just a better experience on the PC for people who have a decent gaming rig.

I seem to recall there never being plans for RDR PC port. However, things could change. I would definitely invest in a copy and I already have GotY for Xbox. The reason being that I loathe XBL and have not had a chance to work on my MP mode nearly enough because of it.

As for GTA V? I must admit I do not care much for the titles. Saint's Row is better, IMO.
