They are pretty much 99% going to be making next gen and PC versions, probably even small spin offs for the iPad and whatnot. If they enjoy money, and have the entire worlds spotlight like they do right now, releasing it on just 3, or even only 2 (if no PC) platforms is massively idiotic.

I think there'll be a PC release but no proper next gen release apart from Gaikai as mentioned but that's just streaming the current gen version.
I think R* would rather start development on a proper next gen GTA 6, which I can't comprehend how good they will be able to make it with the new consoles
MS and Sony would pay top $ to have R* release for next-gen. Especially if they could have a timed exclusive. Imagine what it would be worth to have GTA5 on PS4, but not on X:One for 6 months? $$$$!
Can't really have a timed exclusive on a game that's already been released on both companies previous consoles. Also seeing as how many will have already played it unless the next gen version was dramatically different I can't see sales being anywhere near as high, a lot of console users don't care about graphics and a few more peds/cars on the streets.
And thus bottlenecking the advancement of gaming as a whole.
Totally agree but just pointing it out that console only users don't see it this way.
I think you'd be surprised man, the amount of pre orders for the PS4/X1 shows that console users want something better. I can see the amount of console owners that own GTA V being similar on the next gens as to what it is now.
That's not the case at all, most of them probably don't have a clue about the tech specs of either. They buy it because it's the new thing to have and don't want to be outdone by their mates. Obviously they know it will be better than current gen. If a console user really wanted something better they've had the option of owning a PC for years
Indeed, me included, i am expecting big things from the PS4, and i fancy some sofa gaming

Will a 20gb PS3 have enough hdd space for installing GTA V? I don't want to buy GTA V and find I can't install it! lol
It takes up 8GB from what I've read.

Well there is a lot of information out there, some legit some not, that picture PC gaming as being hard work and rigid/unflexible. There's a lot out there that'll put somebody off wanting to own a PC, so they'll wait for the new consoles which is fair enough. There's a lot for R* to gain from playing around with GTA V on the new consoles/PC, some experience on the new console architecture so their next game will be fresher, future PC ports will be easier etc.
And of course, a ****storm of $$$ raining down on their heads.

You can rig your PC up and play it from the sofa with a pad, Steam big picture etc. only helping that. Hopefully we'll see a lot of PS3 games release as PS classics on PSN, wouldn't mind having all the Uncharteds available on it and the GoW games as since confining to PC has made me miss out on them.
I'm glad Sony are there though, definitely having a piece of a console pie this gen but no way would I want something like the X1.

Great, so that's made my decision for me, PC version it is then!
Ah, I thought he meant the install from disc which is 8GB.

You sure? I thought the game is a complete install from the disk version.

Yeah i do that for fifa and Grid.
Main reason being ps4 exclusive games, is that true we might see some ps3 classics put on psn.

I think they simply realise that existing gen is very old. And so the new gen must be better
Also PCs are what they run Excel on, they don't play games.
How many would expect the PS4 version to be better than the PS3 version, or could say what improvement they would expect - that number will be much lower, I agree.
Just the 8GB if you're installing the retail version it seems

Wait, so does that mean my 20gb ps3 is OK then for installing GTA V ? I would be getting retail version not digital download.
