OK, so we're all pretty heavy duty gamers here I imagine. Just a straw poll ... does anyone NOT plan to buy GTA IV at some point in the near future?
I've not got it pre-ordered, but can't see myself holding out for more than a couple of weeks, subject to there being any stock available for an impulse buy. |

I imagine there are a few that won't be buying it unless it comes out on PC, me for one. If/when it does I'll probably get it on release day though! |

no immediate plans to buy it here... maybe if there's a PC version (I don't get on with the joypad controls in the GTA games). |

Neither have nor want a console. And if the pc port version of it turns out to be as ****ty as the GTA:SA port was (which I already hated because of the pathetic hip hop """culture"""), I won't even bother to pirate it, let alone buy it.
Too bad only about 1 in 5 or even 1 in 10 console to pc ports is even worth looking at... If they got rid of the ******** console style controls / UIs / dearth of options / added proper mouse control it'd be a different story, but unfortunately too many dumb sheep still buy ****ty games that are way below pc standard. |

All the PC elitism surrounding any good console game that might get ported is really sickening. |

I tried to like Vice City, really I did.
It couldn't get much better than running over people in an open topped beamer with 99 Red balloons on the stereo, right?
Alas I just don't find the "Here's a city, now go and do stuff" gameplay that engaging. EVE RELATED CONTENT |

I liked previous GTA games except for the horrible aircraft controls in San Andreas PC. I hope GTA 4 doesn't have the same problems.

I have a console... in fact there are 3 in the house here - my PS3, my fiancee's Wii and my old PS1.
I play mostly Motorstorm on the PS3 (am waiting for the full version of Gran Turismo 5 as I object to paying for what's essentially a demo).
When I'm not glued to Eve that is :)

If there's a PC version maybe. Years of gaming has made me react more with my fingers than my thumbs. ---- Infiniband can do more than just prevent lag |

Yes, I won't be buying it.
I hate consoles and they hate me (I once crashed an xbox merely by touching it (seriously!)), and this partially extends to the games. Let's face it, even if there'll be a PC port of GTA4 it's still primarily meant for consoles. Consoles are vastly different from PCs, most obviously the controls but in other aspects as well (intended audience for one). A game that is meant to be played on one of those things are generally not particularly well suited for a keyboard and mouse, and vice versa. Now, GTA:SA was a very nice game indeed, but it still had that console "feel" that I don't much care for. If that is gone in GTA4 then yes, I'll quite likely get it for PC (assuming the game itself is any good ofc).
Oh, and spare me the anti-elitist crap. I have my preferences just like you have yours and I've made my choice regarding gaming platforms.

GTA1 : played a little bit GTA2 : ok, this one I wastched people play it on my PC a lot, I haven't played it much myself GTA3 <something> : barely touched the PC version(s) GTA4 : when it comes out for the PC, I'll ignore it stoically as long as possible, borrow it once from somebody, play it a couple of hours then return it, after deleting it

just for your information, a good gaming computer, like most PC gamers on these forums have, costs more than a PS3, a 360 and a Wii put together. So think before you speak, you don't want to look stupid, do you?

I don't have a next-gen console, and don't really intend to get one. If it comes out on PC, though, I'd go for it.
And for the record, I don't really want a console. If I had ú300 going spare, I'd put it towards a new gaming PC.
Of course, poor people who can't afford a proper gaming PC (and have to settle for a console, at the price of the lowest end current PCs that you can buy) are indeed cute. |

Doubt it. Nothing philosophical, just have less time for and interest in consoles nowadays. Besides, i figure if i have a few hours to kill watching a screen, i'll be on eve, right?
or watching a dvd. i have lately developed an addiciton for Samurai Jack. help.
