GTA 5 is actually that good though that people can't really find much fault in it.

[Yoink]

I don't recall anyone discussing any legitimate faults in my TLoU thread either, though.
It was more just "oh yuck, console exclusive, PASS". Oh well.

To be more on-topic: I will probably end up being pressured into buying this by friends, for the multiplayer.
Going to wait until I can get a pre-owned copy, though... or maybe one that fell off the back of a truck somewhere.

I'm going to buy the PC version on top of my PS3 version. It wasn't that expensive and it allows me to enjoy the game on release. I understand some people stick to the PC religiously but I have to say they've really pushed that console to the limit; the graphics are probably the best you'll see on that console. The PC will blow it out of the water any day, but for the time-being you won't be too limited with the PS3 or xbox 360.

My new favorite thing is Wade's answering machine thing.

I'm going to buy the PC version, because I don't have a console and will not have it. They are ridiculously overpriced here, costing more than a decent gaming PC.

[LordSlowpoke]

You can get a PC that would probably run the game when it's ported for the price of the console version. >__________>

Meatspace retailers have truly horrid margins here.

I don't understand you, do you mean that a PC that can run GTA V costs the same as the console game itself?

Does GTA V have usable public transport? I liked the subway in GTA IV.

I know you can use taxis. Haven't noticed any subways/trains yet though, but I'm not that far. Deffinitly keep my eye out for it.
What it DOES come with, is a pilotable blimp (only availible with new purchases by using provided download code - or, I imagine, at a cost if you don't have the code because you bought it used).

I find it sad that The Last of Us was trashed so badly on here for being a "generic wallhumping console cover shooter" whilst yet another GTA game comes out-- only on console as of yet-- and not a bad word is said about it. Next there'll be a Call of Duty thread on here and y'all will be spouting phrases like "360 no-scoping" and "ermagerd campers".

_{That last bit's not entirely serious. I hope.}

If you don't like GTA, you can just say it out loud, you know.

[Yoink]

What?
Erm, alrighty then. I don't like GTA. I'm not entirely sure how that fact is relevant to the thread, though...

[Fniff]

I don't agree with the delayed PC release of GTA V, but I do like the series and I think I'm going to enjoy the game itself. You don't have to hate GTA IV to not agree with the idea of delayed PC releases.

[Neonivek]

Yeah but given the number of games I got on the PC which were poor ports of the console versions (Skyrim for example...) I think I'd accept a delayed release if they were simply updating it for the computer.

[Fniff]

But the thing is, they're developing it on computers. It shouldn't be that they port it to PCs: PCs should happen first for ease of testing, then ported to consoles. Preferably, both should be released at the same time. It just feels ridiculous.

I think they are giving priority to the medium that will make them the most money.

[Fniff]

I know. But that's not a good thing.
