So, what version are you guys most excited about, the PC, XBONE or PS4?
For me it's without a doubt the PC version.
Mainly because of the huge modding scene with so much awesome stuff.
Why would they lie?
People really need to gain some perspective regarding the kind of games they expect 1080/60 from.

Trust me when I say you'll have truck loads of fun when you finally doI never played GTA 5 because I felt that the game was meant to be played on a next gen console.
I'm guessing 30 fps for this, which I am fine with as long as it's locked.
I bet online heists finally launch when this does.
Not sure if it's already been mentioned - has anyone seen the price of the PS4/XB1 version on Game.co.uk?
£54.99! Are they having a laugh? That converts to $92...
[Thinking to myself]
Wonder how much it might cost, in say, H2 2015 (not this year) to build a reasonable gaming PC with one of the unannounced "2nd-gen" 20nm Nvidia Maxwell / GTX8xx cards (w/ full DX12 support) plus a decent but not TOO expensive 50 inch 4K set for GTAV PC (and gaming in general)
Would probably need to use SLI (even with a powerful Maxwell) to get 4K 60FPS.
I'd think a single card would be more than fine for 1080P 60FPS or even 4K 30FPS.
I'll bet with some great graphic mods (i.e. Icenhancer),, new Intel CPU with 8 real cores, 32 GB DDR4 and high-end Maxwell SLI'ed, 4K/60fps, GTAV PC will look almost a generation ahead of the Xbox One and PS4 versions, though for at least 10x the cost.

They'll lower it over time, it always starts high.
It's the RRP of every current gen game since the consoles launched tbf.
Shopto , Simply and Amazon will likely have it cheaper. I'd imagine it'll come down at GAME as well , it's only just been listed after all.
I could have barely waited a week... A full year? Hell no, I regret nothing. I'll gladly replay it though, I still fire up the PC version of GTA4 regularly.
It will be glorious!!!
Sure, those could be the right choices for you. As I said, it depends on the personality.The right choice was playing it early, selling it for near full price after beating it, then double dipping on the superior version. Buying the early console version does not prevent one from playing the superior version later.

I'm getting the Xbox 1 version, but I am most excited about the PC version hands down... I just don't have a capable PC and won't for a while. I'm going to get a new PC but maybe not until 2015, so that way, I'll be able to triple-dip on this and then use all of the mods that come out by then on PC.

Honestly wasn't sure about PC since RDR though next gen was a given. Hopefully port is of MP3 quality.
I'm guessing that you never bought GTAIV on PC.
It was like the Trespasser of the '00s performance-wise.
The game also managed to have some great original songs created specifically for it.Listening to the 3 disc OST gets me fucking PUMPED. It's like August of last year all over again.

This releasing almost makes me wish they didn't even bother with the PS3/360 version. I'd like to see the game in nice shiny HD but I'm not sure I want to shell out another $60 and replay the campaign again.

Massive install base and a massive success for Rockstar. They could not have seen those kind of numbers on PS4/XBO, just impossible.
No, but they still would have sold millions. Can you imagine how many people would run out and buy an XB1 or PS4 just to play GTA? Crazy numbers

Easily the ps4 version for one reason, and one reason only. Remote play. My body is ready rock star, lay it on me baby.
Even though it's not an open world game Max Payne 3 is a better indicator of what to expect from the PC version of V in terms of requirements than IV is.

The main reason RDR didn't get a PC version was because development of RDR was a disaster up until the last several months, poor code documentation, weird shortcuts/work arounds to "fix" issues and a host of other things made it something that was needed not worth investing in for a PC release, from what I remember it a good deal of RDR would've needed to be basically rewitten for it to not be an even bigger train-wreck than the PC version of GTA IV assuming they could brute force past the issues and further investment was considered not worth it. Hell, Rockstar didn't even expect to make money off the game due to all the money that was pumped into it, supposedly needing to sell four million copies just to break even. Rockstar SD basically performed a miracle (if you want to call the hell of working there at the time a miracle) to get it out and have to look and run as well as it did. Rockstar got lucky in how successful it ended up being.
Then there's the fact that Rockstar SD only had one game in its entire existence from when it was Angel Studios that also had a PC version. But it was primarily because RDR's code is a mess held together with band-aids, scotch tape and bubble gum and with shitty documentation
GTA IV was an unoptimized mess on a new engine that was a developer's nightmare for some time and all-round sloppy port. I'll say it now without even needing to see what the requirements end up being that GTA V won't be. I'm sure it might a quad core CPU and a GPU from the last five years but beyond that it won't be a repeat of the mess that was IV. GTA V on PS3/XB360 was already a very well optimized game on a now much more matured version of RAGE and there's little reason to expect V will be a repeat of IV or a mess that Watch Dogs also is.
Even though it's not an open world game Max Payne 3 is a better indicator of what to expect from the PC version of V in terms of requirements than IV is.
The PC port of GTA IV was sloppy, open world or not. Sleeping Dogs was open world too and ran just fine.
