Rockstar declines comment on PC Grand Theft Auto IV
- May 02, 2008 00:00 AM PST
PC gamers holding out hope for Grand Theft Auto IV will have to hold it a little longer.
Come out with the PC version and your hands up!
On Wednesday, Rockstar greeted inquiries about a PC version of the insanely popular console title Grand Theft Auto IV with an industry standard -- and no doubt disheartening -- "no comment."
The no comment arrived after CVG pumped the developer for more information on a January report from French retailers. Originally, that report speculated that GTA IV would launch for the PC in October. On Wednesday, German retailer City Disc posted a November 2008 release date, prompting the follow up from CVG.
City Disc has since amended its listing to October 30, 2008, with the following translated copy: "The release date for GTA 4 for PC has not yet been confirmed by the Publisher, Take 2. The release date is not guaranteed and is open to change."
It's a very GameStop way of doing things, and should be considered a placeholder until confirmation from Rockstar or publisher Take Two.
PC gamers should take solace in the fact that it took GTA III about six to eight months to come to the PC.

Grand Theft Auto killed my PS3..last night i was playing GTA and all of sudden it frozed, i turn the PS3 off, turn it back on, and when it get to the main window the CD doesn't show. Next i default all my settings to see if that work and no it didn't work. Then i took the game out and put in COD4 to see if that game work and it didn't work. Finally i called sony to explained the problem to them and they going to send me casket in mail, so they can fix it or give me a new one. THANKS ROCKSTAR FOR F***ING MY PS3 UP

gta IV for PC will be huge. Modding in gta games on PC has a lot of appeal to many people. and who said San Andreas had problems transitioning to PC. i just bought it for 10 bucks in prep for gta IV no problems here.

you probably screwed your own ps3 up, I never have problems like that, I always wipe my ps3 down, clean cd's off of dust or whatever is on it before sliding it in the disc tray.
