GTA IV on PC!

[Brawler]

meh, far to late. Sure it will have slightly better gfx and whatnot but for this type of game I WAY prefer lying on the couch and playing on a 42".

GTA4 is the only game I feel is worth R700, finished it months ago but still play it often.

I can do the same with my PC, GTA supports PC game controllers and I can hook my PC up to a HD display if I wish.

GTAIV (on PC) will come out on November 18 in the US and November 21 in Europe.
I did not even start playing GTAIV on my PS3 yet!! I made a mistake by lending it to my little brother. He's not done with it and won't give it back.

Even if i only had R300 left in my bank account, R* would get all my money... they DESERVE IT!

i reckon most "pirate" game collections will include one original GTA IV disc one of these days

matter of principle

According to this GTA 4 PC looks a lot clearer and has better frame rates than console

Yeah... all I see in the console section lately is talk of RROD'ing

tsk tsk, shame ....... from http://www.computerandvideogames.com....php?id=195731

A ridiculously high resolution is to be expected, but Rockstar also said the PC version has been buffed up with better textures, longer draw distances and an all-round touch up over the console versions.

But to be honest, try as we might, when the game was finally booted up we struggle to notice any obvious visuals differences. It looked near enough identical. Even down to the same stuttering frame rates outside when the view points down a road and a fair few cars are thrown on screen. This could be improved on for the final version, but we were hoping to see slick 60fps rates already.

A Rockstar man played through the mission - called Three Leaf Clover - in which Niko joins Packie and co on a bank heist. Epic mission. But again, no differences from the console version.

Same here, I'll pirate it until the price drops if that's the case.

Otherwise i will agree...

This part makes no sense. Direct x 9 has to have shaders.
