PS3 version for me. It's that simple.

TheGrimReaper3944d ago (Edited 3944d ago )

I'm still unsure :/
Shall I buy it for PS3 or wait for the PS4 version with additional DLC on disc...

"We don’t have anything to share about the possibility of a next-gen or a PC platform release at this time"

NihonjinChick3944d ago

Have fun waiting for that PS4 version.

TheGrimReaper3944d ago (Edited 3944d ago )

@IncredibleGamerChick:

(Assuming you've made a serious comment)
A PC version of GTA V is going to be inevitable imho. A port to X1 & PS4 shouldn't be a big problem.
I just don't want to buy a game twice and an open world game like GTA V would scale beautifully on hardware with better components (especially RAM, 512 MB compared to 5-7 GB).

I get what you mean! While everyone is enjoying GTA people like me would have to play the waiting game even though it is unsure if it will ever see the light of day.

EDIT:
Could people elaborate why they are disagreeing with me?
If you press "Agree" on my statement you are in the same spot as I am.
If you press "Disagree":
A) I won't wait!
B) I am not unsure, I will wait!
C) There will never be a nextgen console version of GTA V.

Which is it? :D

TXIDarkAvenger3943d ago

The obvious choice is getting GTA V on the platform your friends game on. Most of my friends are on 360, so I will buy Live and GTA V for 360. Yeah it may cost more, but in the long run its worth it. I still play GTA IV with friends and there isn't exactly a whole lot of shit to do.

lukeb4dunk3943d ago (Edited 3943d ago )

The way I read it, and admittedly trying to read between the lines here, but I think they're waiting for PS4/X1 to announce their release dates before they announce anything.

"We don’t have anything to share about the possibility of a next-gen or a PC platform release AT THIS TIME and we are completely focused on delivering the best possible experience for the consoles people have right now."

EDIT to add quote

Electroshocked3943d ago

@TheGrimReaper: I'm pretty sure that we're going to have to wait a while for a next-gen release of GTA V, and then there's the chance that GTA V won't even receive a next-gen release. Waiting for a ''possibility'' ; is a no go for me, and I'm sure it's the same for many others.

On topic: I get the feeling that R* are putting a huge emphasis towards the multiplayer portion of GTA V or ''Grand Theft Auto Online'', really looking forward to it. Can't wait for September 17th!

brettyd3944d ago

Me too, I have a 360 but playing GTA on anything but a Playstation console seems wrong.

omi25p3943d ago

360 for me. Online party chat is A MUST.

xPhearR3dx3943d ago

If you own both consoles, this is the best choice assuming you have gold. Both versions require a mandatory install, with no disc swapping. Yet on 360, there's party chat. However, I don't own a 360 anymore, so PS3 for me it is :)

Emilio_Estevez3944d ago

Car customizing is back, best GTA news I've heard in a while!

US8F3944d ago

He did mention that it would be fully customizable, I wonder how much. Darn, sometimes I hate Roockstar's "very soon" promises. It can take weeks and I want to know NOW.

Emilio_Estevez3944d ago

They are masters of withholding information, makes people want to know that much more.

ape0073944d ago (Edited 3944d ago )

amazing indeed, especially if u look @ how great/detailed the car physics was in gta 4

matrixman923944d ago

glad they went with the installation route for 360, just like Halo 4

Gazondaily3944d ago

Yeah so much for the 10 disc-swapping theories lol.

It's a mandatory install on both consoles so that should settle that matter.

TXIDarkAvenger3943d ago

Yeah, those are stupid theories. Only an idiot would believe that especially after the release of Halo 4.

GameCents3944d ago

Yup. I was contemplating getting it on ps3 because I didn't want to have to disc swap but now I don't have to and I'm happy I'll be able to use my 360 controller to play this game.
How I detest that DS3 and it's dainty triggers!!

Y_51503943d ago

Although I love the DS controller, I agree that the triggers could have been better.

Prcko3944d ago

next gen version plz rockstar,or pc with sweetfx

ape0073944d ago (Edited 3944d ago )

agreed im a gta hardcore fan and i want a nextgen version, don't get me wrong gta V will better than all nextgen games combined(to me) but i want it to look and run as good as possible

Wizziokid3944d ago

Grand Theft Auto Online needs to be like RDR multiplayer, that was awesome!

warewolfSS3944d ago

I probably played that multilayer more than I played most.

Cost of realistic looking movement.

lucasnooker35d ago

Rockstar need to learn that 12 years of work and 5000 employees doesn’t account for one persons opinion on the internet…

Profchaos35d ago (Edited 35d ago )

Oh and hundreds of millions of dollars in revanue to boot.

Lots of complaints about gta ever since the hd era started and yet it's bugger than its ever been with gta vi up to 180 million trailer views alone. The next game is shaping it be be another genre defining game

MetalGearsofWar35d ago

They already learned they dont have to actually make a great game

sagapo35d ago

The controls of RDR2 felt a but cluncky indeed, but it’s not as bad as some make it out to be. At no point did I get the feeling my experience with the game was held back or ruined by the controls.
But it can never hurt to optimize them a bit, sure.

Zhipp35d ago (Edited 35d ago )

I did accidentally beat someone to death a couple times. An unfortunate mistake but besides that I didn't have any problems with the controlls

jznrpg35d ago

Red Dead Redemption felt clunky at first but I got used to it fairly quick. I thought 2 was easier to control but it could be my experience with the first game helped me out. Great games

Profchaos35d ago

I wouldn't call Rockstar games characters clunky instead they feel like they move with Weight they are not twitch controls press x to instantly snap onto cover the characters instead move like a actor would ducking behind cover they are exposed while they get there.
