Anyone else think its going to be a bloody console port again?
Most likely. They'll hardly rewrite the engine for the PC version when they can sell you a port - and gamers WILL buy it. Well some of them anyway hence why it hits the console first - thats where the money is.

We can cry and whinge all we want. Fact is folks will pirate the game so Rockstar will make the consoles their focus point. Hardly a surprise.
 
makes more sense to make a pc game and then dumb it down so it runs on a console like pretty much every other dev studio does
Everything is made using PC's, but that doesn't make it a PC game. Most things can be scaled, but ultimately gameplay and control mechanics are geared towards the primary sales platform and they won't change dramatically.

But that's not why consoles are getting it first. And I don't know why studios like Crytek even used it as an excuse for switching to consoles as their primary platform. They should have just said that's where the big easy money is.

It will be I'm sure, it just depends if it's a good one. In most cases ports are perfectly fine.

It shows some hope in a way too, current generation consoles are so outdated. My guess is that R* don't want to hold us PC gamers back, and give us the full experience.

I wouldn't mind so much but it's not like the PC version is out 2-3 weeks later... we won't be playing this on PC until this time next year if you go by their GTA IV / LA Noire releases :(
 
Jonney, you keep saying this but with no evidence? I can't even remember the last time I spent £40 on a game. There are always deals for launch day, usually around £36.
 
Hmm on that link it says

Developed by series creator Rockstar North, Grand Theft Auto V takes place in a re-imagined, present-day Southern California in the largest and most thriving game-world we have ever created set in the sprawling city of Los Santos and for miles beyond – from the tops of the mountains to the depths of the ocean.

I wonder if this has any meaning as in submarine play or somit?

Scuba-diving probably? I would have thought that location would be somewhere scuba-diving is really a big activity.
 
my opinion sorry. not factual. i can see this being £50 easily. games like fifa are already £45-£50 on consoles

No they aren't. What's your source, the Littlewoods catalogue? GTA5 will be the same £35-40 that every other console game is. If you can't find it for that price, that's down to you.

RDR on 360 was at least at 720p, I remember playing it on my PS3 where it wasn't even HD! (420p!)

The game ran at 720p on the Xbox and 1152x640 on the PS3. Not sure where you got 420p from.
