Here's the link, I don't know if anyone around here was waiting for this piece of news, but I'm glad that Rockstar is keeping their PC market in mind. It kinda worries me that they were able to port this so quickly, but who knows how long they've actually been working on it.

Dantz will surely be happy. He talks about this lots whenever it's brought up in a conversation.

Too bad I won't be able to support it most likely : (

Anyways, it's known at usually 6 months after a GTA game is released on a console that it comes to PC :P

I look forward to the many many mods to follow :P

I'd really like to see GTA4 get modded to be... uh... as feature-rich as GTA SA

Eh, I think that GTA is one of those games that's just more suited for consoles.

But if my friends and I gather, wear black robes, and say  "Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn", we're considered cultists.

Have you actually tried one on the PC? Because I felt the same way until I tried it and the keyboard/mouse works rather well and with the mods available, fun is certainly there to breathe new life into it. I personally like the total mods that add real cars and advertisements, what not.

Yes, I've played all of the PC versions since Vice City. It just doesn't have the same feel, and I don't really care for it on the PC. Granted, I don't care for the console version all that much, either.

Well, I wasn't expecting this to come to PC but maybe I'll get it to play on my laptop when I'm not with my 360.

Some poor sap with two much time on his hands will probably run through the models and lower the poly-count and release a series of alterations to settings files that lower the graphical requirements of the game significantly whilst also lowering the graphical quality. This is the PC market we are talking about here after all xD

There are some decent-enough laptops out there. And keep in mind that the option will be available for reducing content quality.

Exactly. A 7-series card could probably run this game easily, and modified 9-series chips are already available for higher-end laptops.

My laptop runs Crysis on high with a bit of lag, but barely enough to bump down the quality... I don't know if I'll rush to get this, I still haven't beat the 360 version, I have a tendency to walk away from the games after awhile and pick them up later. I dunno... but if/when it comes down to $20, I probably will and jump into the mod community. Though my PC only friend is getting it, so he may force me to get it sooner for multiplayer. o.x

For once, it doesn't take hundred years to port GTA to the PC...
